Talk Amongst Yourselves
If Guantanamo is marginally less bad than the Soviet gulags or Nazi concentration camps, is that something to be proud of? If we're not quite as bad as the terrorists, is that reason to feel good about ourselves?
In terms of her future electoral prospects, does it matter that Hillary Clinton isn't a lesbian if the right-wing noise machine spends the next year screaming that she is?
Would you be surprised to learn that the Katie Holmes/Tom Cruise relationship is actually a 5-year, $25 million contract that stipulates no sex? Would you want to bet on which of them doesn't want to have sex with the other?
Now that this blog has stooped to addressing Katie and Tom, does that mean it has jumped the shark at last?
Tell the whole class. . . .
