P.J. O’Rourke, from “Squishier Than Thou: Demonstrating against reality in London and Washington,” in December’s Atlantic Monthly:

Another speaker came to the podium and said, ‘Let us bomb the world with housing.’ One of those McMansions with the lawyer foyer and the cathedral-ceilinged great room could do real damage.

…”Bomb the world with housing”…uh-huh. This is the same kind of feckless bumper-sticker thinking that Wendy Malick (“Just Shoot Me,” “Dream On”) undertook to articulate on “Politically Incorrect” a coupla months back. Her “solution” to the “Afghan problem” was to have a troupe of women, clad in white and faces defiantly exposed, parachute Special Forces-like into Kabul and set up “aid” tents. And yes, she proposed this with a desperately straight face.
