Erdos Had The Number First

So, I’m listening to the Kojo Nnamdi show (well, a podcast of it at any rate), and they are interviewing a woman who is running for some political office. I don’t remember what office, but when they asked her how the mayor was doing, and how he had handled his term she responded that she didn’t want to do a “post revisionist review”.

First off: What the Crap does that mean?

Second: Is this what political speech has degenerated to? you don’t even have to be coherent anymore, just string some buzzwords together and you’ve made your soundbite?

I like Kojo Nnamdi, most of the time. But sometimes he lets stuff like this go and I just want to write him a stern letter. I know his hearts in the right place, but MAN! how do you let that kind of thing slide? Check out his podcasts, and his show if you live in the area. And remember, this is not a post revisionist review of his show. Rather, we are building synergistic expressions of how Kojo is winning the war on Terror and Strengthening the Homeland.
