Assentator emeritus (I)

Even with Danny Williams-Government activity at unusual and historic lows, it doesn’t mean that sycophancy towards the Regime is by any means in abayance. Nothing could be further from the truth.

In fact, today there was such a stunning example of it that this corner feels compelled to award an Extraordinary Award for Special Achievement in Sycophancy — the first in what will, sadly and inevitably, become an occasional but still too-frequent series.

Congratulations to radio host No Names Please, who today puckered up and said:

Is this the price we pay for having a good Premier?... There’s a great risk with someone like Danny Williams in the leadership role, someone who people respect and highly esteem, there’s a tendency to say that things are going well.
