America's Concern Troll

One thing that can be said of the nation's most consistently underwhelming editorial columnist, Richard Cohen, it is that he goes about reaffirming his moniker without delay:

There is almost nothing the Obama administration does regarding terrorism that makes me feel safer.


Of course there isn't, that's why you're America's Concern Troll!

Obama hasn't invaded any new countries. New invasions always make Dicky Cohen feel better. He only aspires to close down Guantanamo and ignore crimes instead of using it to facilitate new ones. Obama is merely inconsistent in applying the Constitution, as opposed to completely pretending it doesn't exist. Thank goodness, the Administration decided to let Bybee and Yoo off the hook -- I don't think Cohen's bladder could have handled a different result, Cohen's kidneys almost shut down over Scooter Libby.

Your 'Liberal' Washington Post editorial page ladies and gentlemen, as defined by Howard Kurtz.

Boy I hope Cohen doesn't see his shadow today.
