Steyn on Afghanistan:

Obama’s priorities lie not in the Hindu Kush but in America: Why squander your presidency on trying to turn an economically moribund feudal backwater into a functioning nation state when you can turn a functioning nation state into an economically moribund feudal backwater?

Mark Steyn is priceless!

The most popular headline at the Real Clear Politics website the other day was: “Is Obama Becoming A Joke?” With brilliant comedic timing, the very next morning the Norwegians gave him the Nobel Peace Prize. Up next: His stunning victory in this year’s Miss World contest. December 12, Johannesburg. You read it here first.

Well almost Mark.

You nail it on 0bama becoming a joke, but I'm afraid that the fallout all joke all the time, was on Free Republic, (tip o' the hat to founder Jim Robinson) that went all comedy all morning and had Zero winning every title conceivable as envisioned by the multi talented residents and staff at Free Republic.

Kudos to all, you know who you are.

"First, I would like to thank the committee for locating my college thesis and transcripts..."

Steyn: "Oh, no, wait. That wasn’t the real President Obama. That was a comedian playing President Obama on Saturday Night Live. And, for impressionable types who find it hard to tell the difference, CNN — in a broadcast first that should surely have its own category at the Emmys — performed an in-depth “reality check” of the SNL sketch. That’s right: They fact-checked the jokes. Seriously."

Do they fact-check the jokes here?

Love that Steyn.

He shoots straight into the target, using his biting British wit (those Brits do know how to stick the dagger in the heart of their subject using wonderful words and phrases for emphasis) for comic relief.
