"But these days it's just as likely that any human being he comes across is some pantywaist Bambi Boomer enviro-sentimentalist trying to get in touch with his inner self. And, if the guy wants to get in touch with his inner self so badly, why not just rip it out of his chest for him?"

Awesome as always.

"It seems Bill Clinton and Mikhail Gorbachev have collaborated on a retelling of Prokofiev's beloved children's classic, ''Peter And The Wolf.''

Where will this end. The three little pigs build only evioronmently friendly homes so the big bad wolf turns vegan?

>>"War presupposes enemies, and enemies means people you have to kill, or at least stop, or at the very least be ever so teensy-weensily judgmental about."<<

The average liberal would sissy-faint if he knew he could be in-the-least "teensy-weensily" judgmental!

Mr Steyn is a genius with words.

Many great lines, but that was my favorite...

And another thing, why would anyone want to re-tell the classic Peter And The Wolf? Next we'll hear someone
re-composing the 1812 Overture to remove the cannon's.

Are you aware that they recently had "Annie Get Your Gun" on Broadway -- and tried to remove the guns?

In other words, we need to work harder to understand ''why they hate us.''

Not only do I no longer care...but, I'd be surprised if the terrorists themselves know why.

The Disney cartoon movie was the first one I remember, and I remember it scaring the (youknowwhat!) out of me. Of course, I was only 2.....

Give me the original over the Clintigula version any day!

There was a book published in London, last week that explained that the reason the Islamists hate us is because our democracy poses the greatest threat to the Islamic theocracies of the Mid-East and that if we are allowed to succeed in Iraq that one shariya will fall in one country after another.
