It’s incredible how the author was so dumb to take the exact bait and dig in further.
- neilv 3y agoYeah, I almost cut that out of the quote here. However, during the Bush 43 administration, it might've been coming from the then-underdog position, so maybe less superior than it sounds now, but still bitingly dismissive. I vaguely remember "reality-based" was a term that was being tossed around, as a criticism of "faith-based" politically-motivated government approaches to problems. I don't know how long that lasted.
