Clooney says he wants more journalists to "speak truth to power," which is why I'm insulting his movie.

Bwaaaa-hahahhahahhahahahahaha!

Best line I've read in weeks.

Haha.

And no, I'm not questioning their patriotism. Honestly, who can be bothered questioning anything so footling as Howard Dean's patriotism? If you're a Democratic patriot and you're outraged by my linking your party to the "insurgents," take it up with your leaders: They're the ones who've over-invested the party in American failure. And instead of being angry at me you should be ashamed of them. Your party is regarded as unserious on national security because it got it wrong last time round, when Kerry spent the last half of the Cold War siding with every loser on the planet -- opposing the liberation of Grenada, supporting the Sandinistas in Nicaragua. And at least that little Sandinista guy looked awful cute in his fatigues, like a novelty houseboy Teresa picked up on vacation. It's hard to believe a bunch of crazy mullahs and suicide bombers are going to do much for the lefty T-shirt business.

Ain't Mark great!

That doesn't leave many folks over on the other side except Zarqawi and Dean. What do the two have in common? They're both foreigners, neither of whom have the slightest interest in the Iraqi people.

Mark Steyn gives me chills--he reminds me of Spencer Tracy--his delivery is so fluid and natural that he makes it look easy...my hero!

Thanks for the ping, Pokey!


foo·tling

1. Lacking importance or significance; trifling: a footling gesture.
2. Stupid; inept.


As some of us said at the time, the Sunni'll come out tomorrow. And so they did.

Li'l Orphan Ooday!

Bush lied, people dyed. Their fingers.



(Clooney says he wants more journalists to "speak truth to power," which is why I'm insulting his movie.)

"Hey! I invented that phrase! I don't even know what it means, but then neither does the majority of my voters! All I know is that it's fashionable, much like my yellow wristband!"



Just wait till the WMD turn up.

Just wait till the WMD turn up!

Just heard on Fox & Friends that Ms Anthrax and Dr Germ have been released from detention with a number of other detainees.

Let's see where they go. A whole bunch of Iraqis want to know.

But, damn... just DAMN, but that is a great idea! Stroke of Genius, actually!

The irony is, having Mark on 60 minutes doing the Andy thing would save that channel's slide into irrelevance...

the payola, though, is having a Patriot who speaks truth to (their self-anointed, self-proclaimed, unaccountable to none-but-themselves...) power.

They've not the stones for it.
