Intemperate Sovereign

There’s a hyperbole that should be inserted here about the nigh impossible fact that I’m posting about an editorial at The Nation but this first paragraph will go down in history.

Americans ought be listening to Russ Feingold in these defining days for the Republic, because what the Democratic senator from Wisconsin is saying goes to the heart of the question of whether a nation founded in revolt against monarchy will be ruled by laws or by the crude whims of an intemperate sovereign and his out-of-control administration.

When The Nation is publishing editorials like this maybe more blinders wil fall away.
