One of the nice thing about Audities is the absence of political comments.
That said, as someone who is clearly to the left of Mr. Swirsky, I still
have to ask how the hell you can label him a nutjob for setting forth cogent
political analysis in generally a rational non-hysterical manner. I may not
agree with his political musings, but to dismiss him as a nutjob is just
plain wrong. Disagree. I do in many respects (though his VP analysis is
quite good), but do not dismiss, for that dismissiveness smacks of an
intellectual tyranny that is becoming way too prevalent on the left and
leads to debacles like the Duke Lacrosse hoax.
