michelle is excellent when she talks about things that she knows about. her books are a case in point; they are quite good.

and i actually don't fault her personally for talking about things she knows nothing of on this dv: that's the bhtv model. "people who are relatively informed appear and talk about things they actually don't know anything about." or, er, sorry, "where great minds don't think alike."

no more offensive than yglesias on china, pinkerton about "arabs," or sarah posner about anyone who isn't a farking unitarian.
