I Can Die a Happy Blogger Now. George Will Quoted Me in a Column
Those of you who are regular readers are probably tired of hearing me rant about the proposed Glendale, Arizona subsidy of the Phoenix Coyote's team (here, here, here), a subsidy that runs afoul both of our state Constitution and of common sense. This week, George Will enters the fray, and actually quotes me at the bottom of his column. Most of the column should be familiar to those following the story here, but of course being George Will it is so much pithier than I could tell the story. I liked this bit:
NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman agrees with McCain that the world is out of joint when people can second-guess the political class: “It fascinates me that whoever is running the Goldwater Institute can substitute their judgment for that of the Glendale City Council.” He will learn not to provoke Olsen, who says, “It happens to fascinate me greatly that the commissioner thinks a handful of politicians can substitute their judgment for the rule of law.”
