...Thus far, there has been no protest from the chief target of the gibes, the Journal itself, perhaps because the paper is inured to annual imitation by The Bawl Street Journal, produced by the financial community's Bond Club of New York. Much fun is had with the bucket-thumping editorial-page style of the Journal's editor, Robert Bartley; one editorial works itself into a frenzy and gradually goes crazy, with the print getting bigger and bigger until the sentences finally collapse into incoherence...
