I was thinking the same thing about Steyn's use of the language. He seems to slip so easliy into a sort of stilted British style, which I'm sure is intentional. It just highlights the irony.

If you are going to excerpt, then excerpt, dammit!

Don't post all but the last two paragraphs and then leave us to click (and register or consult bugmenot or whatever) to figure out what the last bit was.

You are not avoiding copyright infringement by posting as much as you do and it is annoying.

Silly me. I thought people actually read these threads. My full post begins with the q'snip. Am I incorrect in assuming that the typical reader of this board just might be able to recognize that he / she is seeing a continuation of the snip.

My comment, too, was aimed at the Guardian. They are slimeballs for running that column and slimeballs for not taking responsibility -- 'hey, hey, we were just joking.'
