"along with fellow humor writers Molly Ivins..."

Molly Ivins has not been funny for a long time, if ever.

Whenever I see her referred to as a 'Pullitzer prize wining writer' I am reminded that Yassar Arafat and Jimmy Carter won the Nobel prize.

The prestige and reputation of both awards, the Nobel and the Pullitzer, was seriously damaged with the naming of these recipients.

I'm willing to play by their "rules." And I'll be so funny, they'll just die laughing.

Vicious partisanship in politics is nothing new. One of my favorite political cartoons of all time is one whose exact source I cannot recall, having seen it several years ago. It appeared in a prominent newspaper during the administration of Thomas Jefferson. Drawing from memory, it was as follows:

President Jefferson pulls on a rope tied to a statue representing the republic. The Devil has hold of Jefferson's waist, helping him pull. Next to Jefferson's feet is a half-empty bottle labeled "Brandy".

The Devil: "Heave away, Heave away my son! I'll help you!"

Jefferson: "With the help of my Old Friend and a little more Brandy, I'll bring it down!"

Yes, the rhetoric spewing forth from the self-styled Opposition Party (because they have no credible ideas of their own to promote) is vile, hateful and frequently obscene. However, it is neither a new or original development, and it most certainly is never going to go away.

On the other hand, some other things never seem to change, either. From the Biography of Thomas Jefferson on Whitehouse.Gov:

When Jefferson assumed the Presidency, the crisis in France had passed. He slashed Army and Navy expenditures, cut the budget, eliminated the tax on whiskey so unpopular in the West, yet reduced the national debt by a third. He also sent a naval squadron to fight the Barbary pirates, who were harassing American commerce in the Mediterranean.

Sound at all familiar?

"Can't you take a joke?"

Not when they look like the three troglodytes mentioned in this article.

This is nothing new! The essence of the Democraps and their grape juice drinking friends in the media is practicing the POLITICS of FEAR, DIVISION, and HATRED!

Have you read Ann Coulter? Or Peggy Noonan? Never mind Rush Limbaugh or Bill O'Reilly. Let's face it, the Right Cross is just as brutal as the Left Hook. It's a rough-and-tumble world, and if conservatives are scared of the fight, they need to get out of the ring. If they're going to stay, they need to give as good as they get.

Mr. Moore uses the tried-and-true method of depicting Americans as greedy overconsumers to bolster his case for expansive government. After citing the oft-quoted fact that Americans consume a disproportionate share of the world's resources ...

This would probably change significantly if Mike would just go on a diet. Given his appearence, Moore doesn't have much moral standing to complain about "Americans" overconsuming or not providing proper sanitation. He should look in the mirror, then take a bath, get a decent shave, and forego the doublecheeseburger and extra fries.
