Unfair attack on Nimble Books author David Axe

Pajama Media blogger Kim Zigfeld has launched an ad hominem attack on Nimble Books author David Axe, who responds quite sensibly.

I feel impelled to observe how very tired I am of the degeneration of public discourse into an exercise in scoring trivial points against one’s opponents, or, often, merely against proxies for one’s opponents. (Obviously, David Axe did not personally invade Georgia, so it’s hard to see how discrediting him could roll those Russian tanks out of there …)

I also feel impelled to observe that Kim Zigfeld is apparently operating without any sense of irony, since her ungrounded “he’s only a blogger” argument could just as easily be applied to her (or me).

Grrr.

Oh, and incidentally:
