OK, I'll admit that Dean seemed absolutely nuts in the decontextualized, televised version of the screech-speech Monday night. And to be sure, it was imprudent to be unaware of how he would look and sound to the rest of the world.
But I just got done listening to an interview with David Frum, author of a new book, "An End to Evil," with Richard Perle. The man is completely insane, living in a fantasy world of his own construction, totally oblivious of all facts on the ground. And now I'm listening to Juan Williams' softball interview with Dick Cheney in which he is still insisting that al Qaeda and Saddam were connected. The man is nuts, completely nuts.
Yet both Frum and Cheney have a wonderful way of speaking: calm, assured, never ruffled. But can we just admit that these people are completely bonkers? And can Democrats make this a campaign issue? I mean, Republicans question the sanity of every single Dem frontrunner, and they never have any evidence to back up their smears. We have actual evidence of insanity! Come on, people!
