I don’t normally wade into the comments section of anything, but it’s been interesting recently to see the responses by WSJ subscribers (including rating each others’ comments) to some stuff the Journal has posted. Top comment and top reply to that comment, at the moment:

WSJ editorial board: I agree that this is completely un-American and destructive of our best hopes for future prosperity and world leadership. However, your attempt at a false equivalence with the Obama administration’s attempts to reduce predation on students is absolutely disgusting. Please remember that you were the cheerleaders who helped bring on the destruction of what was once a great country. You are not idiots. You knew what you were doing.

The Editorial Board did know what they were doing. But perhaps, they are idiots.»

I suspect I’m not the only one who thinks the WSJ editorial board is off the rails, and is refusing to let them off the hook. (I think they’ve been off the rails for decades, from the times my dad used to send me their editorials.)
