Hopefully there won't be any indictments tomorrow and W will nominate a true blue conservative judge for the Supremes.
Talk about making a lemonade out of a lemon. LOL
Another Steyn gem. Just what I needed to cheer me up.
Which is also exactly the problem with the Conservative Party in the UK !
We'll give you Newt Gingrich to jump-start your Conservative Party, and we'll throw in both Clintons as a goodwill gesture.
I sit here speechless....
One of his best ever.
And: If the Left were nimbler, theyd have figured that the whole thing is just a Karl Rove front operation to provoke the Times into tearing itself apart.
Bump for later copy. I'm going to e-mail this one around.
If Special Prosecutor Fitzpatrick does NOT look into the likelihood that elements within the CIA were running an opertion against the president, then Fitzpatrick is not the even-handed, non-partisan genius that the MSM is making him out to be.
He's an amateur.
Such an operation would be a violation of the Hatch Act (among others?), and would be relevant to the case at hand.
Another home run by the Sultan of Steyn.
I get a grin, agin.
I think Steyn is on to something by going back and looking at the 1994 midterm elections. Because it was at that moment that the tide changed for Republicans. I would agree that it was throw the bums in more than throw the bums out. What needs to be said is that the 1994 election was about the voter's being disconnected with those that they elected. The past few months tell us there is a bigger disconnect with those that were elected and those that put them in office than there was in 1994. Those who voted expected more. They expected more than than Harriet Miers. The biggest travesty is that Republicans have continued politics as usual for what is the majority party. As a minority party it is easy to attack Bobby Byrd's abuse of his power to spread the pork in WV. But the fact is Teddy Stevens is the Bobby Byrd of the Republican party, and it is about time someone stood up and gave Stevens what they would have given Bobby Byrd. Unfortunately, the more I see of political parties the more they appear to operate as criminal gang and a bunch of racketeers. That is certainly what they were in the time of Arthur and Conkling, but the difference was there was no income tax which allowed politicians to skim such a big portion of the GDP for their petty political purposes.
Thanks !
Terrific! A nice bunch of Steyn-provoked belly laughs is a great way to start the day. :-)
Pardon me if this
is off-topic, but I think
I prefer to share
margaritas with
fully dressed transsexuals.
I mean, be honest,
with transsexuals
most of the time their clothing
is their best feature.
Fitz has a bit more to worry about than the guy who brought down Martha Stewart for lying about a crime that wasn't committed.
Bringing down a government for a crime that wasn't committed is a heavy burden. Is he up to it?
"... but that the worlds most lavishly funded intelligence agency can do no better on a priority security matter than flying in a vain unqualified buffoon for a week of pseudo-spook tourism."
Now that is one of the best lines I have read lately. Wonder if the boys and girls in Northern Virginia are reading that? LOL
No one sums it up quite like Steyn.
