100 People Who Are Screwing Up America

[Bennett Cerf]

Unless what? Unless she isn't?

John Podhoretz is loathsome right-wing scum. He used to write op-ed for the New York Post... for all I know, still does. Son of the equally loathsome Norman. And Jonah Goldberg is the spawn of the hideous Lucianne-thing. The acorns didn't even fall from the tree in these two cases. They just stayed attached and lived off the poisonous sap.

[Bennett Cerf]

This cover isn't nearly as entertaining. Where are the pictures of Barbra Streisand, Jane Fonda and — most importantly — Hillary Clinton?

I just saw Ponnuru on Politically Cor...err, Real Time. He seemed remarkably reasonable...I'm sort of disappointed that he's connected to a book with such a bent (unless it turns out to be a polemic about rave culture).

He also had the voice of a twelve-year-old, not that that has anything to do with anything.

[Rspaight]

Heh. Yeah, I heard him on the radio recently and had the same thought. He sounded like Peter Brady.

Believe it or not, it appears that the title has been toned down slightly from the original "The Party of Death: The Democrats, the Media, the Courts, and the Disregard for Human Life," not that you're likely to make out that title in this tiny pic:

Democrats: The Party of Death. Nice.

And the right has a conniption about Al Franken and Michael Moore's "attacks."

Don't forget Media Matters.

So...

Saying "America" was responsible for 9/11 - BAD.

Saying "the cultural left" was responsible for 9/11 - GOOD.

Terrorists don't kill people, terrorist-enabling liberals kill people.

Al Qaeda is just a helpless pawn in Ted Kennedy's master plan.

Dinesh D'Souza has been yapping out of his bunghole since he was a College Republican at Dartmouth in the early 80s. Fucker sold his soul to the devil long ago. And he has the nerve to blame atheism for mass murder

update: D'Souza's new book was lambasted yesterday in the strongest terms, in a full-page Sunday NY Times Book review.

[Rspaight]

D'Souza read that review in his 8,000 square-foot home with leopard-print carpet and laughed with his pleather-clad wife.

Since Dartmouth, the conservative fray has been quite remunerative for D'Souza. Six years ago, he and his wife bought their home in Fairbanks Ranch. The nearly 8000-square-foot house has six bedrooms, seven and a half baths, and a four-car garage, where they keep their maroon 1992 Jaguar XJS. A circular drive fronts the French country stone house. The cathedral-like front room, with its full-length mirrors and tapestries, has an 18th-century French decor of (veneered) golden maple burl furniture. The slick floors echo like a museum as one walks through. In his office, there's wall-to-wall leopard-print carpet; floor-to-ceiling bookcases are stocked with titles in history, politics, and philosophy. The view out back features a bright blue pool and the arboretum-like landscape.

Today, at his desk, D'Souza is comfortably dressed in preppy garb. Plain shirt (with the polo player insignia), plain pants, tasseled loafers. At one point, his wife Dixie breezes in. She is blonde, petite, California-tanned, and effervescent about her husband. She's wearing a stylish pink plastic-leather rain jacket. We exchange pleasantries, and she's gone before I can respond to her evident delight in marriage.

At least he has good taste. He sounds like a regular Navin R. Johnson.
