31. Wolfe's "Radical Chic" is the most devastating portrait of...
"liberal do-gooders" one can imagine. Granted, it is hilarious, but his intentions are very clear. Slack-jawed reactionary apes like Limbaugh and PJ O'Rourke can only dream of possessing a fraction of the talent of Wolfe during his prime.
Wolfe has been playing shrub's game for almost forty years now. Wolfe has ALWAYS mocked intellectuals (while he himself is a writer with an MA in American Studies) and championed the gleeful philistinism of the American yahoo (while, once again, Wolfe himself is a member of the social and economic elite) Sounds a lot like *, doesn't it?

Wolfe was once talented, but no more. However, he remains a hypocritical piece of shit.
