Molly Ivins calls me “some juvenile jerk” not just a “juvenile jerk.” The implication being that she’s never heard of me. It’s a useful tactic and I’ve used it before myself. Of course, when I’ve used it I actually hadn’t heard of the person before. My guess is that Ivins has heard of me but believes even mentioning my name is beneath her. That’s cool, it’s the sort of dishonest pose you’d expect from fossilized, out of touch and self-parodying liberals.
