One was designed for the unthinking hordes of the far right; the other for the unthinking hordes of the far left. Both were deeply depressing indicators of how far our culture has curdled into unthought and emotional extremism.

I like Sullivan. He so often says what I'm thinking. I do so despair over the increasing mindlessness and accompanying hostility.

unthinking hordes

The better comparison of Moore's movie is with The Clinton Chronicles. The difference in how they are received is The Clinton Chronicles was bought into by a fringe on the right, Moore's movie is being touted by the mainstream left.

I think Sullivan is just ventilating an in house Catholic argument by comparing Moore's movie with The Passion of the Christ...
