Sorry I’ve been travelling all day and haven’t had time to check-in until now.
Anyway, as you might suspect, I think this is a silly, manufactured, attack on Bennett. Maybe he could have phrased it differently, but the point he made is rational and true and his moral condemnation of the suggestion was appropriate. To me, this is very similar to the whole “evacuees” vs. “refugees” nonsense after Katrina. People are trying to be offended rather looking at what he said, how he said and — most of all — the context in which he said it. I have no problem if people want to dislike Bennett or disagree with him on this or anything else, but this brouhaha is bottled outrage and nothing more.
