Some of the more rational conservatives pundits have taken to making clear-eyed criticisms of right-wing gasbags and for the sake of having a more reality-based political discourse, I hope they succeed in discrediting these maggots on the body politic.
Freidersdorf takes on Mark "Foamer" Levin and near the end hits on what I think is the essential point:
For my purposes, his motives are beside the point -- the effect of his words, insofar as they persuaded listeners who hadn't time for a close reading, is to misinform them about reality.
This is also what Limbaugh, Hannity, Beck, Ingraham, Bennett, etc. do for a living.
