He reworked his column form today's Sunday Telegraph, and added some new material.

Steyn puts out an enormous amount of stuff. Good stuff.

Pokey78: "He reworked his column form today's Sunday Telegraph, and added some new material."

I liked his original column, posted earlier, much better than this rework. But, I think one of my favorite paragraphs is this:

Tom (The Undertaker) Daschle has ''concerns.'' He has ''grave concerns.'' His concerns have concerns. He's gravely concerned the president isn't concerned about some of his concerns and that concerns him all the more. Plus he's concerned that the Republicans may be politicizing the political process. Also, he has ''questions.'' Thousands of questions. . . .

The great thing about humor, when it's true, it's even funnier. And this paragraph is hilarious.

This one is good, but the original was funnier, IMO.

Yep, he sure did. Here is some of the new stuff......

As the Vietnam peaceniks used to sing:

''Gore!

Heeeugh!

Good God!

What is he good for?

Absolutely nothing!''

Remember Al Gore?

Nope. The name doesn't ring a bell. He must be some really irrelevant figure in history.

In the immortal words of David Cassidy, how can I be sure in a world that's constantly changing?

That was the Rascals, not David Cassidy, unless he did a version I'm not aware of. The article is great, though.

algorebatross could have been advocating genocide and this ultra left wing crowd would have loved it.

al baby is not playing well in his home state of Tennessee...the dem guberatorial canidate told him thanks but NO THANKS, few of the State dems want him to campaign for them either. In fact they've drug out the former gov ned ray mcwhorter (who happens to be related to algorbatross) to campaign for the demwit that is running a smidge to the right of center to get elected oily phil bredesen former mayor of Nashville.

The sight of the Democratic Party wrestling with its conscience is like some old-time carnie freak show

I bet the concience looses...

The Democrats are irrelevant.

The croud loved it too. I wonder if they were even listening.

From what I heard the crowd (the fairly serious Commonwealth Club elite) were baffled. Nobody clapped at the applause lines, and they acted like they couldn't believe somebody who came so close to being president could be such an idiot. Gore was a sweating, incoherent buffoon, in other words himself (one of his selves?).
