This whole thing is absurd. I too can't shake the feeling that the timing on this doesn't pass the sniff test, and that the outright ban on all liquids (including those purchased after the security inspection) is nothing but hype.
How many weeks until the midterm election?
Snark, snark. And well said. Another ripe phrase:
"results decimated popular wisdom as Tester nearly doubled Morrison's total by a margin of 60 percent to 36 percent"
Decimated popular wisdom? Margin of 60 percent to 36 percent? Eek. Someone get this boy a dictionary, please.
Actually, in the context of Weber, it seems better to describe the Bush administration as a form of charismatic authority rather than either traditional (feudal) or rational-legal. Authority is not primarily derived from the charisma of tradition, but rather direct personal loyalty to George W. Bush. Of course, true ideal types never obtain in the real world, so there are definite elements of traditional authority (his daddy was president, after all).
Weber rocks. Everyone should read him in copious quantity.
