“Dinesh D’Souza was on NPR this afternoon, offering his incisive commentary yet again. You know, things like how America’s involvement in Vietnam began in the 1950s”

It did begin in the 50′s…political involvement that is.

If one of the biggest pro-war psycho hawknuts in the Senate is now being trashed by the neocon cabal, I think that in itself is a clear indication that the White House has totally lost its moorings and is floating along in dangerously fuzzy LaLa Land somewhere.

Since when did JOHN WARNER (Sorry about the chronic caps, I just can’t quite get over it) earn the badge of liberal surrnder cheese monkey traitor?

Man. This is weird. Even NIXON knew when to quit.

Oh, and D. Sidhe, for years I’ve been trying to hand Coulter with the nickname “Fascist Barbie.” Give me some help here, guys.

Women can’t be fascists????

Oh my God, I want so badly to make an Ann Coulter joke here…

Precisely. Another checkmate.

Hmmm, that could be a great idea on which to base a plaintive song in a movie musical featuring marionettes. Maybe we could have him sing it while pacing the long, empty White House hallways, or toying with the keys on his baby grand, or just laying on his bed, staring up at the ceiling…

It would help if he sang it in a funny accent, too.

Iraq is nothing like Vietnam, because Vietnam was unimportant. And we didn’t feel like winning in Vietnam anyway. Also, South Vietnam’s government was corrupt and ineffective, while Iraq . . . um, never mind.

Dinesh D’Souza was on NPR this afternoon, offering his incisive commentary yet again. You know, things like how America’s involvement in Vietnam began in the 1950s. Or some airheaded drivel about how “military tacticians from Sun Tsu to Clausewitz” have argued that military success is dependent upon a formula of “resources times will”.

It’s….well. It’s something. Don’t ask me what, but it is something.

however, don cherry is the kamloops of assholes, whereas mark steyn is the montreal canadians circa 1977, guy lafleur style.

Obviously, the Quebec-to-Lyme, NH pipeline has taken up the slack nicely.

And the idea that as a kind of intellectual exercise, you can debate whether or not to wage a war, whether to wage it ineffectually and all the rest of it, no, you can’t. You’re in it, and you have to win it, and you can have an argument about how to win it, but if you’re not even interested in victory, as most of these Democrats, and pathetic people like Susan Collins of Maine are not, then really, you can’t be part of that conversation.

I can’t explain this level of delusion any other way. Mark Steyn, who is not actually a citizen of this country, believes he can dictate who among United States Senators are permitted to ‘be part of that conversation.’ Again, wow.

[pedantry]And Lyme, NH is not actually the original home of Lyme Disease. That honor falls to Lyme, CT, which is also the home of a lot of the Republicans who helped return Holy Joe Lieberman to the Senate, which may explain, but not excuse, a lot. [/pedantry]
