Esquire's Pierce: Go on, Guzzle the Antifreeze!

Charles P. Pierce, Esquire magazine’s politics blogger, has been running a recurring feature lately called “Things in Politico That Make Me Want to Guzzle Antifreeze.” In the feature Pierce takes a story from Politico and criticizes the reporting for essentially not being bitchy and liberal enough.

For example, Politico‘s Jake Sherman wrote a story in late July about the support Rep. Michele Bachmann‘s (R-Minn.) still has in her home district despite facing national criticism. In the piece, Sherman cites a Bachmann supporter who said “he believes President Obama vacations on Martha’s Vineyard [are] to observe the Islamic holiday of Ramadan.”
