Or, y’know—not.  From Heather Mac Donald’s “Taking Dictation from the ACLU,” The Weekly Standard, Oct 18 (subscribers only, so I’ll quote at length): IMAGINE THE New York Times writing a damning article about the Clinton administration’s tax policies cribbed exclusively from a Heritage Foundation press release. Can’t do it, can you? How about the Gray Lady recycling ACLU misinformation about the Patriot Act without any additional research? This time, no

Well, unless you’re Bill INDC or Kevin at punditreview, that is.  Because for those two, Saturdays are for chatting about politics and broadcasting measured punditry to literally millions of Boston-area political junkies.  And by millions, I mean thousands.  Or maybe scores. Scores of political junkies in the Boston area. Well, I’ll be listening.  12:30 PM ET.  And I’ll be listening while I’m making love.  But I’m unusually versatile that way.

Stop.  The monkey, in a pathetic ploy to impress a local TV weather girl, downed eleven flaming Ouzo shots last evening—which left him with a nasty hangover and smelling like a hot licorice fart trapped in shag carpeting. You’ll forgive him his modesty today, I trust.

Or, I feel your pain. **** update:  put another way: The woman is right.  If America elects a self-confessed war criminal, a communist sympathizer, a proven liar about matters of war and peace, a man who even the people he served with in war won’t support, a liberal with absolutely no record of accomplishment– even for liberal causes, an appeaser, a man who sees terror as a nuisance and the

I like French onion soup, though I’m not sure what it is that makes it French.  Which reminds me: ever notice chalk?—how dusty it can be when you’re losing your virginity to your eighth grade math teacher on a pile of dirty erasers…?

“The word ‘dyke’ appeals to the Dutch, and winning the War on Terror is all about building international alliances.” “The Cheneys opened the door to Senator Kerry’s factual remark by engaging in the kind of lurid monkey sex that produced Mary Cheney in the first place.” “The American people have the right to know that, should George Bush die and Dick Cheney assume the presidency, the White House would be

Uh huh.  Well this oughtta help things, then… Reached for comment, Kerry communications ferret Howard Wolfson told FOXNews’ Linda Vester:  “So?  Bush can’t even say ‘nuclear’ right!  He says nu-cu-lar!  And Iraqi children DIED!  Chimpychimpychimpy smirksmirksmirk!” Christ.  Who could vote for a candidate run by such pathetic dime store Machiavellians…?
