Nibbled to Death by Mickey Kaus

“Krugman's argument appears to be that they shouldn't negotiate because Bush's starting position is unacceptable. It usually is in negotiations!”

You jerk! You little towel-snapping jerk! This is where it's happenin', blog-central, nut to nut, ball to ball! I hate snappy journalism! I loathe and despise the part of the male brain that is stuck in the moist fumbling heat of locker room! For life!

No, not hate. It's just tedious as hell. But then, I'm a big believer in life beyond snappy. In amusement beyond cheap, in high beyond adrenaline, in news beyond stirring the lowest, shittiest pot. In a national narrative that reflects the way people really live. One they choose, not the boy-crap foisted upon them. Insurgents all. I wish.
