I wasn’t going to comment on Dr. Carson’s remark claiming President Obama is a psychopath. Dr. Carson is not a psychologist, he’s a neurosurgeon. He’s reportedly considering a Presidential run. It’s gauche, it’s peurile, it’s red meat to the conservative base … and it’s really jumped the shark.
How much more will the conservative base eat up? When does the porridge become too rich, and they start to walk away from the table? Does Rush’s reportedly falling ratings serve as a good proxy for this possibility? Do we next hear … no, I won’t give Rush the next level of insults to fling into the maw of the conservative base: one must watch what might appear in a search engine?
Someday adult conversation will return to the national stage. Just Not Yet.
