Naomi Klein has for some time had the GOP's number in a way that few public figures have been able to boast. Her ability, moreover, to break down a thesis cleanly for people to understand is something all of us on this Blog should appreciate.
So here is Klein in distilled form, in case anybody has been hearing about this "Shock Doctrine" stuff for a while, but never had time to read the book. The first couple of minutes is the money part, then she and Sullivan start arguing and at some point or another Sullivan begins to confuse himself with Patrick Henry. Sullivan got a couple of good points in, but overall this clip illustrates his incredibly callow side.
Ahh, the temporary alliance is almost over......
