Nothing

George Will has recently been skewered in 4 different attacks, by writers from his paper, for his breathtakingly fact free articles on Glbal Warming.

Republican economics are simply discredited.

He's got nothing left, nothing at all.

So, he takes on ... blue jeans

Denim is the carefully calculated costume of people eager to communicate indifference to appearances. But the appearances that people choose to present in public are cues from which we make inferences about their maturity and respect for those to whom they are presenting themselves.

... Edmund Burke -- what he would have thought of the denimization of America can be inferred from his lament that the French Revolution assaulted "the decent drapery of life"; it is a straight line from the fall of the Bastille to the rise of denim -- said: "To make us love our country, our country ought to be lovely." Ours would be much more so if supposed grown-ups would heed St. Paul's first letter to the Corinthians, and St. Barack's inaugural sermon to the Americans, by putting away childish things, starting with denim.

... This is not complicated. For men, sartorial good taste can be reduced to one rule: If Fred Astaire would not have worn it, don't wear it. For women, substitute Grace Kelly.

Will has clearly never watched 'What Not To Wear' or ever spoken to a person who does not regularly wear a bow-tie (Full Disclosure: I love bow ties). I think denim in his life comprises 'mommy jeans' and pot-gutted Gap-relaxed-fit men.

But then maybe he's just trying to separate himself from the teabaggers. One commenter on TownHall.com noted

Today every freedom loving writer is reporting on the TEA Parties and Will writes on denim???!!!

I’ll bet that 90% of the ‘drapes’ [Wha huh? -- Ed.] on the ground yesterday were denim.

Is Will trying to alienate freedom-lovers?

Hmmm. OK, George. All is forgiven.
