...why Andrew Sullivan is obsessed (for days now) with the following question: "How Smug And Self-Righteous Was Mo'Nique?" (during her acceptance speech)?
I wasn't aware of it but Sulli maintains a certain affinity for British upper crustism expressed as a particular sort of disdain for dark people and their habits and culture. That's what the Bell Curve was all about after all.
Does that mean I want Jay-Z as president. Well not exactly. Then again, I didn't want some old Nazi's wet dream, Dick Cheney, a heart beat from the Oval Office either.
...I'm going to go with "he needs to get a life"...
It's obviously a hacked-up observation, but - at the same time - there are way bigger societal issues to address than Mo'Nique's Oscar acceptance speech. Someone like Andrew Sullivan, being all intercontinental and all, should go looking for real live (that is, not related to simple friggin' movie related) issues to explore...

uh, showing his gay.
Because she's Jewish.
