Althouse clucks about how Liberal Bloggers are reacting to John McCain's website:
John McCain has an aesthetically pleasing website, which is distinguished by the very low color level. Instead of the usual florid blue and red, it uses elegant, crisp black, white, and gray. Perhaps that calls to mind some beautifully photographed black and white movie. Bring on the liberal commentators, and what movie do they think of? Of course, it's "Triumph of the Will," which, admittedly, is a film known for its crisp black and white photography (to go along with its Nazi propaganda).
And her first example of a Liberal Blogger whose first response was to think of Triumph of the Will?
Here's Atrios:
Imperial Stormtrooper Chic
That's the whole of the quoted Atrios remark.
Huh. Well. Let's call this a "teachable moment."
Dear Ann:
In many important respects, Triumph of the Will and Star Wars are not the same movie.
Love,
Thers
