This is an essay about his family Christmas get together, but it's also about politics and how the ultra right wing media divides and conquers even the most intelligent people. Wil has a way of writing a very short vignette and yet saying SO much.
It's at Salon.com and you'll have to watch a short ad before you can get to it. It's worth it, I promise.
Wil asked for anyone who linked to the first story to link to this addition. It clarifies his first post. Thanks!

I hope this finds you well and smiling most of the time(except with regard to traffic court). I really enjoy checking in on your blog from time to time. I enjoy your writing, and have been turned on to some really cool stuff here. Thanks a bunch for encouraging me to hunt for the Wheaton pieces. They were great I'd like to wish you and Nick a very happy new year. The boys are super...life is good. VERY different, but VERY good. Take care...
