On Crazy Politicians

I found this Time magazine article via Matthew Yglesias's blog. The article laments the deplorable state of the Republican Party today, where the de facto leader is someone like Rush Limbaugh, and where the rest of the party hasn't the gall to get up and say to him or others who speak in fascist, racist, or otherwise bigoted tones: 'Have you no sense of decency, sir, at long last?'

Matthew Yglesias adds his own two cents by bringing up other examples of crazy politicians, showing, at the same time, that this sort of derangement is not a monopoly of the Republican Party. Never doubted it.
