His opinion pieces in The Washington Post give new meaning to hackery. He writes as if he is the first lieutenant to a cult leader. Shame on The Washington Post for allowing his buffoonery to sully its pages.

I always wondered how they would pass the Legal Ethics course and later the test for the Bar.

Easy! 1) Read the issue and then the questions. 2) Look at the answers (multiple choice). 3) Ask "What would I do?" 4) Choose your answer and then write down another answer that is 180 degrees opposite from your choice.

Neither a journalist nor a terrorism expert, he got his start as a publicist for conservative politicians, among them Jesse Helms, the late Republican senator from North Carolina. After Bush’s election in 2000, he began writing speeches for Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld and, eventually, became a speechwriter in the Bush White House.
