Here's what I love about Andrew Sullivan and his blog, the Daily Dish (one of the two or three the leading providers of breaking news and analysis during this extraordinary post-election upheaval in Iran): last night he had a post entitled "Tick Tock, Motherfuckers", about the fact that the Khamenei/Ahmadinejad regime in Iran is doomed, regardless of how the current crisis ends; and today he posts a lengthy quote from Immanuel Kant on the inherently and necessarily regressive nature of theocracies.
In Sullivan's world, there is no inconsistency or friction between these very different kinds of post - the range, engagement, passion and wit of The Daily Dish are expansive and consistently thrilling.
I love Sullivan for his generous, alert and catholic sensibility.
