Fascinoma

I'm off to Europe on an incredibly dangerous top-secret mission for the Ministry of Elegance, and teaming up with The Lobbyist so as to look like just another tourist. I must admit that I'm happy to bid America goodbye for a little while. What a deal of shitheads we have raised in this country.

Yesterday I was flipping through the channels in the elegant Beantown hotel where I'm currently holed up on expense account, and there was Jack Cafferty ginning up outrage, not just at the idea that we might someday give immigrants free health care (in the unlikely event that we ever join the rest of the developed world in that regard) but rather at the fact that illegal immigrants in America can go to the emergency room and be treated without paying. Imagine that! He invited his viewers to think about all the costs that were thus incurred. I suppose we should also refrain from sending firemen to immigant's buring houses, refrain from prosecuting their rapists et cetera, until such time as their papers are in order.

People who think like that are a disease on the planet. If justice were served they would be ground up and fed to farmed catfish.

On the good news side: Bob Novak died! Jesse Helms, Tony Snow, Bill Buckley, Timmeh, so many graves, so little piss.

Also good: Barney Frank tells a sanctimonious asshole where to get off.

The image above has nothing to do with anything; I just liked it. Although, now that I think about it-- it does seem relevant to Barney's interlocutor and her ilk.
