More Steyn excellence with a few keepers, but I'm already looking forward the the 'negative bounce' column from Mr. Steyn. ooooooooo la la.

For those of us who don't use enervate very often, it means weaken.

Pretty sound, and effective advice as we learn today with the negative bounce polls.

Somehow I don't think Afflect could gauge how stupid, yet prophetic he would become.

I think I figured out what the opening scene if Kerry's speech was about -- last week Meryl Streep said he needed to act better while making the speech to reach the American Public. He must have been watching Patton to get a few lessons and decided to copy George C Scott in Patton with that Salute.

This buttock-shifting ol' freeper thinks it be a great essay.

the great sonorous self-regarding orotund bromidic banality

Steyn is a classic!

I think the "The Senator needs you to move" line anecdote best sums up Kerry.

[Mr. K]

We really need a president who takes advice from ben aflac

[ClearCase_guy]

According to Hillary, the Dems are going to take things away from me... and now the Senator needs me to move, too??

[ottothedog]

Apparently, we are all in his way...

"You have to enervate the base"

The comedian Norm Crosby, King of the Malaprop, used to stay up all night thinking these bloopers up. But an idiot like Affleck just burps them up effortlessly. There's no justice, I tell you.

[Bonaparte]

"Somehow I don't think Afflect could gauge how stupid, yet prophetic he would become."

He doesn't need to. Molly Ivens and the rest of the Bush bashers in the liberal media will never pen one word about pea-brain Affleck's less than stellar command of the English language.

[Lyford]

Steyn bump

[perfect stranger]

You said a fouth mull thite rere.

[ride the whirlwind]

"The Senator needs you to move." And even then everyone else says it better.

This must be why he's sticking so close to Edwards........apparently he says it better. Blecccch!

[Bonaparte]

"We really need a president who takes advice from ben aflac"

Absolutely!

Speaking advice from Affleck.

Dressing advice from Naomi Wolfe.

Campaign advice from Donna Brazile.

Foreign policy advice from Barbra Streisand.

Child welfare advice from Jocelyn Elders.

Ethics advice from Bruce Lindsey.

Gives a whole new meaning to "line-up" -- or does it?

Yankthou! :-)
