Shorter Ross Douthat: My God, the government oversteps its powers! The Elite exploit us! The economy is in a shambles! By the way, did I mention that I was born yesterday?
Wow, I'm one paragraph in and already teh stoopid has fried half of my synapses:
Americans are Tea Partying. Greeks are rioting Yeah, cause those are totally the same thing.
And "a crisis created by hasty, elite-driven integration", donnez-moi un break... Not to mention "dictating economic terms." Does the fucker have any idea what the Maastricht Treaty and the Stability and Growth Pact are all about?
If the bailout succeeds, the E.U.’s authority over its member states will be dramatically enhanced No, dipshit. We need to bail out Greece because they broke the rules we agreed on. In case the bailout succeeds and what you say happens, we can all consider ourselves lucky. The worst outcome would be the diminished authority of the EU over its member states, which is PRECISELY what you assholes on the right have been warning about with bank and automaker bailouts. Jesus H. Christ, the dimwit can't even keep his own story straight...
More like hatched yesterday.
