Where does Steyn live these days? Didn't he start out in Canada? Is he still there?

**Why do we hate us"?

That's the question the Dems will have to answer
before Americans will ever give them power again.

They'll never do it.

I can't believe Peter Jennings actually said that.

Well, maybe I can.

Funniest line:

"Jeez, man, would it kill you once in a while just to send a box of chocolates and a card saying "Thank you, you infidel sons of whores and pigs", and leave it at that?"

If anyone out there knows how to get in touch with the Senior Senator from the State of Washington, one Ms. Patty Murray, kindly ask the lady how many schools, hospitals, and day-care centers Osama is going to help rebuild.

Another Steyn column I missed yesterday:

****In Ukraine, the one side poisoned the other side's candidate. His face broke out and his hair turned gray. John Kerry's hair is fabulous and for much of the campaign his glowing moisturized skin looked like an orange revolution all by itself.***

LOL!

Islamofascist; Radical Islam is an insane death cult, and "moderate" Islam is its Trojan Horse in the West. 

Deroy Murdock writes for NRO: "After being released from Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, former Afghan detainee Faiz Mohammed complained to the Washington Post : "The Americans treated me well, but they were not Muslims, so I didn't like them." The West should be so lucky as to confront nothing more than Mr. Mohammed's level of disdain. It gets worse.

Asked what he would say to the loved ones of the 197 people killed in last month's Bali nightclub bombings, Abu Bakar Bashir, leader of Indonesia's radical Jemaah Islamiyah, replied: "My message to the families is, please convert to Islam as soon as possible." Amrozi, a mononymous suspect in the blasts, said the carnage "delighted" him. He also pointed to Western reporters covering his November 13 appearance with police. Amrozi said: "Those are the sorts of people I wanted to kill."

Al Qaeda-linked Abu Sayyaf terrorists kidnapped six Jehovah's Witnesses in Jolo, Philippines on August 20. The next day, the decapitated heads of two of the male abductees were found. One victim also had his tongue severed. Military officials say that a note attached to one head said, "Those who do not believe in Allah will suffer the same fate."

Beyond hatred of non-Muslims, such murderers also embrace a pathological appetite for self-destruction. As al Qaeda's Mualana Inyadullah put it in the London Daily Telegraph last year: "The Americans love Pepsi-cola, we love death."

" We are more than determined to die here," Movsar Barayev, told Mark Franchetti of London's Sunday Times . "Our dream is to become shakhidi , martyrs of Allah." Barayev led the Chechen terrorists who seized a Moscow theater earlier this fall. He was killed when Russian authorities ended the assault October 26.

And look for a while at the words of Dr. Adel Sadeq, chairman of the Arab Psychiatrists Association and chief of the Psychiatry Department Cairo's Ein Shams University. In an April 24 interview on Iqraa TV, a Saudi/Egyptian satellite channel, he spoke of suicide bombing as the height of mental health

" When the martyr dies a martyr's death, he attains the height of bliss," Dr. Sadeq explained. "As a professional psychiatrist, I say that the height of bliss comes with the end of the countdown: ten, nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two, one. And then, you press the button to blow yourself up. When the martyr reaches 'one,' and then 'boom,' he explodes, and senses himself flying, because he knows for certain that he is not dead," He continued, in a translation by the , Middle East Media Research Institute : "It is a transition to another, more beautiful world, because he knows very well that within seconds he will see the light of the Creator. He will be at the closest possible point to Allah."

From Mark Steyn's own web site Steyn Online:

Q: Where does he live?

A: He divides his time between Quebec, New Hampshire and London – though, after his recent trip there, he’s thinking of buying a vacation home in western Iraq. Very reasonable prices.

Does anyone have Styn's email address? He wrote a great piece re the Dem's Electoral Presidential confirmation charade. I want to send him kudos for a comment about the Jesse Jackson "Orange" protest. He wrote..."Jesse Jackson never got a chance to channel Danny Kaye: The pellet with the poison's in the Brahmin with the Botox."

It cracked me up. He's a wordsmith par excellant.

Jeez, man, would it kill you once in a while just to send a box of chocolates and a card saying "Thank you, you infidel sons of whores and pigs", and leave it at that?

Priceless!
