Pundits and their weak egos - Friedman edition

Friedman Blasts Liberals, Claims They Believe Arabs Are ‘Incapable Of Democracy’
Yesterday on NPR’s On Point radio show, Friedman began attacking liberals when a caller asked him about his early support for the invasion of Iraq. He sarcastically said that next time, he’ll “be a better liberal” and “will view the prospect of Arabs forging a democracy as utterly impossible. They’re incapable of democracy.”
I imagine this topic is a sore point for him - imagine enabling this mess of a war. He does what all pundits with weak egos do, instead of addressing the question, you sarcastically and defensively lash out against a strawman. Well done!
