I know I’m going to get flamed for this but ‘moderates’ are the key. I don’t what they are, how they can be so oblivious, etc. But they sure as hell sent this country on the most destructive course conceivable.
Heh. I loved his prior rip — largely aimed, IMO, at the likes of Christopher Buckley — and will go read this one eagerly.
Absolutely brilliant!!!
Great piece.
Good show, old man.
Cruelly hilarious.
Today the Van Voorhees family sextant rests proudly atop my private shipboard desk. I'm admiring it now; there it sits, in its protective crystal bell jar, alongside Marinus' rapier, both still bearing the sanguinary patina of their provenance.
Iowahawk's casual lampoon of the NR-type raised-pinky "conservatives" displays better writing than they can muster when dead serious.
As I explained all this to President Obama, I assured him that there are still many conservatives like us who patriotically wish him every success, no matter what policies he has in mind.

Genius! For a while there I forgot I was reading an Iowahawk parody and had the words ringing in my head with a Thurston Howell accent. Very entertaining!
An absolutely hilarious lampooning of a handful of “conservative” twits like WFB’s stupid son, and Kathleen Parker, who never successfully hid the contempt she always held for traditional conservatives and, last but not least, Peggy Noonan, who did truly fool many of us.
Wonderful I say! I shift my fedora to a jauntier angle, and raise an devilishly oaky Chardonnay to Iowahawk.
As one of the “gun-totin’ Ozark lumpen proles and exurban strip mall burghers” I must proudly proclaim: The Hawk Rules!
Now I just wish he’d ask T. Coddington how he managed to write something as good as “Thank You For Smoking” while still being so darn f’d up in so many ways.
