The Barnicle column generator

The Columnist Who Will Not Die shows up on Huffington Post with a column that, as Dan Kennedy shows, probably took him five minutes to write, given that it's the same exact column he's been writing since the 1980s.

Is Barnicle a veteran? I'm curious, since he wrote so many articles about a place called Vietnam ...

I'm asking directly since google fu is failing me here - seems the guy wrote so much about people who served in a place called Vietnam.

In defense of Barnicle, whether he's been repetitious or not, the point he's making is an important one and frankly cannot be said enough, in my view. We have far too many people clueless in this country about anything beyond American Idol. I don't think the blogging set is part of that, which is why these mediums are great, but those people are out there.

It may be an important point, but it is also fatuous and obvious.
