Rick Wilson: "You're going to be a tragicomic footnote-a political fart in the hurricane of history"

History is going to wreck you. It's going to mock, belittle, and revile you in ways you can hardly imagine.

You're going to be a tragicomic footnote, a political fart in the hurricane of history.

You name will be a punchline, not a rallying cry.

i know it's tempting at times, but history will remember him only slightly more fondly. after all, he is the one who started the endless war.

even if i couldn't read his book. it was too clever by half, i think the expression is. plus he dissed Hillary unnecessarily and in my opinion unfairly, so I put the book away and started in on Mansfield Park.

but he definitely has a way with words.
