BILL BENNETT: The whole Bill Bennett gambling story is of no interest to me, but it’s sure eating up a lot of pixels over at Andrew Sullivan’s and Josh Marshall’s.

I’ve always regarded Bennett as something of a windbag. Now he’s a windbag who gambles a lot, which makes him, in my opinion, an idiot. But, heck, it’s his money. It’s not like he’s putting puppies in blenders or anything. Is he a hypocrite? Maybe. But the people who are jumping on this revelation with unconcealed glee don’t come off very well, either.
