As a Democrat, I like to read editorials from both the left and the right. I have been reading Thomas Sowell’s columns for years now. He used to make me mad, but once I realized how out of touch he was, I began to read his opinion piece for entertainment purposes alone. Kind of like Fox News with Bill O’Reilly, where the truth doesn’t matter.
I’ve been looking at Sowell’s picture that accompanies his column, thinking he’s about 40 years old. I’ve come to find out the guy is in his 80s. It all makes sense now.
Keep the column running; this guy’s a hoot.
