Sullivan gets it right

I'm not a huge fan of Andrew Sullivan (or maybe it's more accurate to say that I often enjoy his writing but disagree with his conclusions), but he absolutely nails it here, writing of The March Of The Penguins and attempts to use it as a political football. Best lines:

"Not everything is political. And not everything is about us."

Most emperor penguins are Republicans, you know.

And they're also dumb enough to spend six months trying to get an egg to hatch after having sex once, so the Republican thing makes perfect sense.
