It sure as hell beats discussing the issues, eh?

Tom DeLay sounded this note last July: “Good afternoon, or, as John Kerry might say: Bonjour!” This sort of thing goes over well with the know-nothing cadres, people who are far from bothered that their commander-in-chief barely traveled before 2001: they’re reassured. Then, last week, as soon as Kerry had swept the Super Tuesday primaries, DeLay went after him again, to wit: “He’s not even trying to be fiscally responsible. He is either insincere about his new spending, dishonest about his new taxes, uninterested in the new deficit, or they just didn't teach him arithmetic at the European boarding school that he went to.
