I'm consistently impressed by Andrew Sullivan's insights into current events, political and otherwise. I disagree with his take on gay marriage, but unlike everyone else I've come across to takes a pro-gay stance here, his arguments come across as heart-felt, sincere, and are based on ideas and virtues that I value. I don't think he can do with them what he tries to do with them, but it's a lot easier to have a discussion about the implication of shared values than to have a discussion about values that are in conflict. In short, he's one of my favorite writers, and whenever a controversial or significant event occurs, I'm pretty interested to hear what he has to say.
So when he writes this essay about the current state of pop culture being indicative as to why the Left just got their asses handed to them on Nov. 2, I'm all ears.
