fpb...I am sure You remember my various and loud complaints about one Jonah Goldberg, a journalist in the USA. However, should You happen to agree even in part with my estimate, I beg You to pay attention to the following delicious passage:
It's Oscar time. Unfortunately -- or perhaps fortunately -- I haven't seen anywhere near all of the contenders. For that reason alone, I can't write an Oscar column. Throw in the fact that I think the Oscars are one of the most overhyped events in American life. They're almost as bad as the Grammys were when they were still around.
Wait, they still have those? Really?
OK, well, the Oscars are still overrated.
...and remit him a considerable amount of the Purgatory which his misguided party-political passions and rewriting of history should have earned him.
Thank You, O Lord.
Amen.
