Scott Johnson: So Far Gone, From 1969…

I confess: I don’t much care for the hecklers’ veto.

I’d rather see the judge’s idiotic ideas discredited by withering sarcasm, and deflating satire. The Federalists present an invitingly rich target — on this score.

But Powerline has written no fewer than some seven articles on the non-issue at Stanford Law, with Scott Johnson leading the charge.

Yes, I’d prefer that the idiots be discredited in open debate.

Which, ironically, is why I run the image at right. This is Johnson, on some Tee-Vee quiz show for private school high schoolers, circa 1969.

Pretty hilarious. It is telling that they’ve spent so many pixels… on essentially so little, of actual note. [How about Texas bringing vigilante suits against people who aided pregnant young women — some of whom were escaping violent domestic partner abuse… in ending a pregnancy with a pill? Doesn’t that seem a more worthy windmill to tilt at, boys?]

I’m willing to bet that KBJ (despite being a much superior talent, and facing much longer odds, that is… without all of Johnson’s evident whyte privilege, at above right) didn’t get “televised” — at all — as a high school kid. But here, in far less time — she is the first African American woman to join the Supremes.

Scott? Now doddering about, and essentially yelling at the “damn kids to keep their bikes off his… lawn.

Charming.
