I just read this editorial from Michael Kinsley. The contempt for President Bush he feels is palpable in this piece. I don't think Michael Kinsley is capable of writing about President Bush in an objective manner. Kinsley tries to soften the blow and make his conspiracy mongering more respectable towards the end, but his words are insecere. That he subtly invokes his own Jewishness to shield himself, makes his arguments even more repugnant to me.
I am forced to admit thatthe charge that oil is a concern is most likely right. I see nothing wrong with this though. I do take offense at Mr. Kinsley's implicit charges of conspiracy. I wish I could tell him directly. I don't know why I am so angry. He doesn't claim to be objective.
