I think the more radical one's writing is, the more incumbent it is upon one to do all the more and frequent reality checks. Comfort, convenience and access to power dull this reflex and this is evident in the Obama era ravings of the right wing kooks such as Will.

Will has his, having been maidservant to the receding conservative economic and social wave, so he no longer really feels checks from the market place as his glib politics of expedience and convenience runs off its own rails. No matter how bizarre these mass media people get, they've still got roofs over their heads, get fed and have health care no matter what from the residuals.

Conservative economic scripture has been revealed as heresy, Christian sharia shown fraudulent and the talking heads who have feasted on this brew for three decades are demagnetized, disoriented and flailing wildly.
