Bump just for this.

"If the UN adopts the kind of resolution authorising force to enforce the kind of
inspections that they should have a resolution adopted for, then I believe this resolution should say: in the
event the UN adopts a resolution authorising member states to use force to enforce the inspections, I
believe this resolution should say that under those circumstances we should authorise force to enforce that
UN resolution."

Can we run this through the Chomskyizer and see what it says?

[wife-mom]

Thanks, Pokey. I don't know how he does it. He just gets better and better.

[Arthur McGowan]

Does the President know who put the bomp in the bomp-sh-bomp-sh-bomp, who put the ram in the ram-a-lama-ding-dong?

There should have been a mouthful-of-coffee-on-the-keyboard alert!!!

Levin will probably leave the Senate to become National Security Advisor if the Dems ever re-take the White House.

[PogySailor]

But, as someone who sat there howling with laughter as Senator Daschle blinked back tears, I think his attack on the President was an example of what the shrinks call displacement: Bush only implied the Democrats were soft on the war; Gore positively boasted about it.

Zing!

[SuziQ]

Five weeks till election day and the Democratic Party's doing a dandy impression of one of those incompetent suicide bombers who accidentally self-detonates before he gets on the bus.

Oh man, do I hope he's right!!! This is a GREAT Steyn column. Thanks so much for the ping!

[SuziQ]

Everyone knows that wasn't David Cassidy, it was Felix Cavaleiri (sp?) of the Young Rascals

Could David Cassidy possibly have covered that Rascals' tune and released it on some obscure album in Canada? Oh I forgot, ALL his albums were obscure!

[xp38]

His concerns have concerns

This is probably the first time since I joined FR that had I had some beverage in my mouth it would have been on my keyboard and monitor. Fortunately I only fell on the floor laughing.

[Pokey78]

All have been added.

[lainde]

Bump for a glorious Steyn treasure!

[goldstategop]

LOL! The best thing about Mark Steyn's article is the conclusion. I really hope the Rats self-detonate by Election Day. It would be the best present they could ever give this country.

[Howlin]

This is VINTAGE Steyn.

[terilyn]

This has to be one of Steyn's best ever!

Could you add me to your ping list pretty please?

Thank you!

[Howlin]

But, as someone who sat there howling with laughter as Senator Daschle blinked back tears

I think Steyn must have been on our live thread!

[Miss Marple]

Ha! You are up, too! I think Steyn must have been on that thread as well!

[terilyn]

LOL! I think he'd fit right in on one of those live threads of yours :)

ROFL - You could not make this up - too funny! Who's on First?

[terilyn]

I actually heard this idiot say this, live on Fox News. When he finished, the host had the deer in the headlights look and I was staring at the TV saying, "Huh?"
