    Jeet Heer Retweeted Andrew Sullivan

    Wait, isn't this guy stressing "the liberal distinction between public and private" the same guy who endlessly and absurdly and intrusively speculated on Sarah Palin allegedly faking a pregnancy? Am I the only one who remembers this? Am I unhinged?https://twitter.com/sullydish/status/1363584536030937089 …

    Jeet Heer added,

    Andrew Sullivan @sullydish
    A key indicator of illiberalism is the dissemination of private conversations, letters, and emails. Totalitarian impulses have to destroy the liberal distinction between public and private. They’re about controlling souls.

        hey remember when you spent a year trying to prove that Sarah Palin was lying about how she gave birth to her son? https://twitter.com/sullydish/status/1363584536030937089 …

        Sir, logical consistency is for those that don't have power or access to power. Logic is for the little people.
