Ah, a rich week indeed….

All I wanna do is wipe my bum

Ace:

“Ms. Crowe shits lobster Thermidore and pisses melted butter.”

Goldstein:

“…Well, what we meant to say is, there was no al Qaeda in Iraq until colonialist oilsuckers like you FORCED THEM TO ENGAGE COALITION TROOPS ON THE SIDE OF THE FREEDOM FIGHTERS!

“So you see? Thoroughly debunked. Again. You lousy, warmongering Halliburton enablers.”

Instapundit:

From what I can tell, the Taliban have fled Afghanistan and now run the Human Resources and IT departments at major American corporations.

Andrew Klavan (sent just this morning by Matt):

The thing I like best about being a conservative is that I don’t have to lie. I don’t have to pretend that men and women are the same. I don’t have to declare that failed or oppressive cultures are as good as mine. I don’t have to say that everyone’s special or that the rich cause poverty or that all religions are a path to God. I don’t have to claim that a bad writer like Alice Walker is a good one or that a good writer like Toni Morrison is a great one. I don’t have to pretend that Islam means peace.

Of course, like everything, this candor has its price. A politics that depends on honesty will be, by nature, often impolite. Good manners and hypocrisy are intimately intertwined, and so conservatives, with their gimlet-eyed view of the world, are always susceptible to charges of incivility. It’s not really nice, you know, to describe things as they are.

This is leftism’s great strength: it’s all white lies. That’s its only advantage, as far as I can tell. None of its programs actually works, after all.
