The legendary German theologian Dietrich Bonhoeffer, whom the Nazis executed less than a month before the end of World War II, once offered this fascinating comparison of stupidity and malice: “Stupidity is a more dangerous enemy of the good than malice. One may protest against evil; it can be exposed and, if need be, prevented […]

I have often said that the saving grace for Republicans is that Democrats never fail to overplay their hand. They can’t help it, it’s in their blood.
