A source has stepped forward with news that sales of "Tears of a Clown: Glenn Beck and the Teabagging of America" by The Washington Post's syndicated political columnist Dana Milbank were, well, tepid. In the hundreds. Not promising for a book with an initial printing of 38,700, on bookstore shelves for 15 days.

I guess it can now be revealed what everyone on Dana’s Christmas list is getting this year.

Sorry to spoil the surprise.

LOL. It IS a good read. And if you like WW II conterfactuals, my “Halsey’s Bluff” is the story of a Japanese victory at Midway . . . then the fur really flies.

Thanks to the headline that song is now running through my brain.

Better that than Linda Ronstadt singing "Tracks of My Tears".

Ooooooooooo....did I just ruin your day?

During the nineties a fairly decent violinist haunted the subways in Manhattan. He always played the theme to the Godfather. It would stick in my head for weeks and then, as soon as I shook it out, I’d bump into him again and it was back....drove me crazy.

My wife is a musician and we play "Ear Worm" when we're fighting. Fun, but bothersome.

This is another LEFTIST hit job. Milbunk probably got paid under the table by Media Matters, or the Center for American Progress, or the Tides Foundation, or the DNC, or Hilary’s Presidential campaign fun, or Huffington Post, or The Daily KOS, or fill in the blank.

A book written by Sarah Palin discussing her basement furniture would probably sell more books.
