At least his slurs are clever:
"Ann Coulter may be a travesty of humanity, as unacceptable a hank of flesh draped on a hanger ever to be foisted upon an ignorant populace hungry for more ignorance."
". . . Pat Buchanan flapping his musty batwings . . ."
"Is there a household use for George Stephanopoulos? Tidy and portable, he might make a handy kitchen appliance, a bottle-opener, say, or a brush-mop."
"Fineman will never obtain a lasting clue about anything. His translucent shell of professional narcissism is impregnable. "
Style counts in the land of punditry.
