A is B, despite the fact that it isn’t
I want my money back, the title of this WSJ column is simply a false advertisement.
I was very interested to see what method of intellectual flexibility requires to argue that McCain run echos Goldwater legacy. Apparently all that requires is to title your column with the argument and than to completely ignore it, or even to refute it, in the column itself. After all most of the people don’t bother reading more than the title.
Tomorrow’s titles: “McCain Run echos Gandhi legacy, despite the fact that it isn’t”.
