Shorter GEORGE W. BUSH: There are terrorists in Madrid, Riyadh, Istanbul, Jakarta, Bali, and Casablanca. Because of them, we’re going to stay in Iraq. 9-11, 9-11, 9-11. Hey, look over there! Libya!
[and while I'm at it...]
Shorter version of Almost Every Semi-Famous Blogger: I’m not a Republican, I’m an independent, because I think gay marriage and stem-cell reseearch are okay. Besides that, I agree with George W. Bush on everything, and the people who don’t are pathetic sheep beholden to a useless ideology. Also they’re hateful, unlike me.
(apologies to Alicublog)
Oh, that explains a lot. I thought you were a socialist, tho’.
Moderate economic socialist. Civil libertarian.
And I don’t consider myself a Semi-Famous blogger, at least not of the sort that gets quoted elsewhere
Joking… like you agree with GWB… I know, Roger L. Simon, Eugene Volokh, and Glenn Reynolds…
Darn internet impairing my sarcasm all the time.
That is a good summation, too. Instapundit satisfies my ADD need for instant news, but I never really got into Volokh and Simon. I hear they’re both nice in person, but their sites always seemed, um, foo-foo, like I said before.
Also Lileks, Totten, Sullivan, ad infinitum…there’s lots of these people, and they all think they’re so individual…
Simon is nice in person. And used to be a lot more reasonable on his blog too.
