Danny Kaye and Bing Crosby find themselves sitting around a floundering Vermont inn wondering what they can do to save it. Kaye proposes bringing in some kind of novelty act.

Crosby: What do you think would be a novelty up here in Vermont?
Kaye: Who knows? Maybe we could dig up a Democrat.
Crosby: They’d stone him.

I love that movie! It's second only to 'It's a Wonderful Life'.

When nuclear weapons were an elite club of five relatively sane world powers, progressive opinion was convinced the planet was about to go ka-boom and the handful of us who survived would be walking in a nuclear winter wonderland. Now anyone with a few thousand bucks and an unlisted Islamabad number in his Rolodex can get a nuke, and the Left is positively blasé.

This guy is so on target--he should have been a bombadier.

What a joy that was to read. It isn't often that we can say that, but a writer who is able to sum up complex issues in an understandable and interesting way is a novelty these days. I'll never look at another bike path without thinking of Howard the Duck heading to water on his Schwinn.

Thus the Clinton legacy is all small print, starting with the federal toilet-tank legislation: Clinton is the first president to flush himself down the toilet of history

ROFLOL!

New DNC theme song:

We aren't the world


We aren't the children


We aren't the ones who make a brighter day


So let's stop giving.

Terminal denial does as it says.

It say things that have no resemblance to reality, like accusing our elected leaders of deliberate betrayal of public trust as if the whole world knows it to be fact.

Utterances of this type: "Bush, Cheney, Rummy & Co. as the real terrorists — the ones determined to maintain America in a state of “terror.”-- with cocksure impunity ,oblivious to the truth that they have committed sedition and, very likely, treason in this time of war.

Cloaking all this criminal insanity in nostalgic drag and Norman Rockwell, all-American coziness does'nt wash. Your type is in league with enemies of freedom and the criminally insane, real world maniacs who seriously intend to murder all infidels for the sake of obliteration entirely.

So. Waltzing in in Fred Astaire and Henry Fonda mufti or other campy disguises fools no one.

Rest easy. You have front row seats at the next Nueremberg.

The Democrats have become isolationists. They're so passionate about bike paths that they consider Osama Bin Laden to be inconsequential. Domesticity matters more to the Left than international socialist solidarity. Its of little dreams liberals hang their hopes for their future onto. Think small, think bike paths. The Left's Vermontification is complete.

Steyn always figures it out before anyone else. There's always been this attitude on the left that there's nobility in self-indulgence. During Woodstock, the people acted like tearing down fences, doing drugs and having sex while listening to rock music was heroic. Later, they bought Tshirts and went to concerts and felt altruistic, because the profits were going to feed the hungry. He's framed the whole mindset perfectly.

I needed that today, thanks for posting it. Mark Steyn is simply the best.

Ain't it the truth?

You can still glimpse the remnants of the internationalist Left on their fading T-shirts — Fidel, Che, Mao, Allende, the Sandinistas...

Fidel, Che, Mao, Allende, Sandinista, Kerry, Harkin, Ortega BUMP!
