John Lott and NYT's Pillar of Snide

Damn, Betsy! You go.

She goes after the NYT treatment of the Lott-Hassett study. In particular, she points to the con-FISK-ication by Donald Luskin.

Full disclosure of my own: John Lott is a friend, for two decades.

    Those are some good points.

    And calling Don Luskin "stalker" is pretty funny.

    OK, Duke students, here's your chance to refresh your test-taking skills for the GRE and have fun at the same time! Complete the analogy:

    Tim Lambert calling Don Luskin a stalker is like
    ______ calling ________ a _________.

    (a) Yoko Ono, Martha Stewart, bitch
    (b) Paris Hilton, Anna Nicole Smith, skank
    (c) a Tar Heel, UVa, the most overrated school in America
    (d) Mike Munger, Nan Keohane, recluse

    Gosh, those are ALL good.

    But I would pick "d".

    Except that I don't want to go outside. Someone might see me.
