It reads like science fiction - live from the planet 
    Bozo, a man whose enemies know by magic that he actually 
    means the exact opposite of what he says.

    A few weeks ago, Bennett said on his radio program that X 
    is a stupid idea; then he said that if you believe X, you 
    might as well believe Y. But Y is "impossible, ridiculous 
    and morally reprehensible." One thing we know for sure: 
    Bennett is against Y. He thinks that Y is "impossible," 
    is "ridiculous," is "morally reprehensible." "Y" was the 
    idea that aborting all black babies would cut the crime 
    rate. 

    So the left jumped all over him. Bizarrely enough, the 
    White House chimed in. (A Republican White House opening 
    fire on Bennett is like the Joint Chiefs bombing their 
    own front lines.) Yet no one who read or heard Bennett's 
    actual statement in context could possibly have believed 
    that Bennett is racist or had talked like a racist. 

    But our public life is so deeply phony that, although a 
    few stalwarts defended him, no one pointed out the gross 
    hypocrisy of his accusers. (No one I've heard, anyway.) 
    Those accusers knew perfectly well that he was not 
    promoting a racist view of American life, he was 
    denouncing a racist view - loudly and clearly, without a 
    shadow of ambiguity.

    What part of "impossible, ridiculous and morally 
    reprehensible" did they not understand?
