Not a Triumph of the Will
Sure, he's carped a bit about W. of late, but George Will is still Country Club George at heart. Today he opts to write about SEIU President Andy Stern and includes the following paragraph:
Mr. Stern was an Ivy League graduate when he went to his first union meeting. He went, he says, because pizza was being served. The class struggle, like God, moves in mysterious ways.
How lucky for George Will never to have been lured to an event because it meant a free supper. And to compare someone else doing so to something miraculous, like water being changed into wine or a Republican having a non-condescending thought about how the less fortunate live is, how shall we say, rich.
