Dan Mitchell Asks Of American Senator Kent Conrad 'Is He a Clown, Hack, or Demagogue?'

Mitchell, A Subtly, Insightful And Balanced Writer Saves Readers Considerable Time By Answering His Own, Apparently Not Rhetorical Question In The First Line Of His 500 Word Article:

"Actually, the answer is all of the above."

This Evil Clown thanks Mitchell for saving me from having to actually read his article, learn anything meaningful or wade through his one sided rhetoric.

Litotes The Clown does not know anything about this so called 'Senator Kent Conrad' but will take Dan Mitchell at his word. Dan always tells me the truth, he told me so.

After all, Dan Mitchell calls himself 'a top expert on tax reform and supply-side tax policy'; how could he not tell the truth about himself or the 30 year old cutting edge tax policy thinking of 1980?

Prior to joining the Cato Institute (a libertarian fish tank not to be confused with the Kato Kaelin Institute), Mitchell was a senior fellow with The Heritage Foundation (the Heritage's stated mission is to "formulate and promote conservative public policies"; what could be more transparent than that?) (also not to be confused with the Heritage Front).

He also served on the 1988 Bush/Quayle (remember Quayle?) transition team and was Director of Tax and Budget Policy for Citizens for a Sound Economy; this organization was so popular that they signed up members without their knowledge or consent before disbanding due to lack of interest in 2004.

There is a word for people like Dan Mitchell and evil clowns know it.

That word is 'Hero'.

Not because of his long and blithe relationship with reality, ethics, morality and the truth, but because of his boldness in argumentum ad hominem in the title of his article, "Clown, Hack, or Demagogue".

That and he used the word "clown" as if it were a bad thing.
