Greetings from Brazil! I know my fellow right-leaning civil libertarian Jeff Goldstein is not a fan of Prof. Ann Althouse, so I am taking the opportunity here to fulminate against her scurrilous screed claiming that my rococo writing style turns out “endless massive blocks of overlong, tedious, unedited sentences,” which is clearly the unfiltered ramblings of a right-wing harpie who cannot appreciate the complexity of structure that allows for the
