Ok...I gotta say...who is this idiot on CSPAN?

[Zodiak]

This conservative British fop is the most obnoxious jerk! My God, he makes Hitchens look sane. Mark Steyn is his name.

G.W. Bush is widely-read? Iraq is a great place because their currency is stable?

Well, I suppose before covering the rally, they need to don the white hoods for a while.

[ShortnFiery]

1. He should go over to Iraq and take Baghdad Bob's Place ...

This moran is a real hoot! :rofl:

[Captain Hilts]

2. I've never heard of him and I read the Brit press, conservative press too. I turned it off.

[Zodiak]

6. He is a new face then?

If Hitchens was like Scotty McClellan, this jerk is more like Tony Snow.

He speaks with the talking points and the unsuported assertions, but he does it very fast. I am always suspicious of British neocons because to many Americans, they seem intelligent.

11. He's actually an American neocon...

by way of Canada, I think. He's been on the rw wingnut circuit for a while; they love him.

[tanyev]

3. If Dubya is so well-read, then why does he sound so STUPID?

[SaveAmerica]

9. He just mentioned how well-read he is again! W must have read

this dude's book cover several times.

[ChairmanAgnostic]

4. the premier neocon.

He and the Weekly standard folks get together an hatch plots.

A moran supreme.

[Skidmore]

5. You beat me to it.

He is on one remarkable koolaid high.

[notadmblnd]

7. someone told him he should go to Iraq and serve...

he said he was in Iraq right after the war... and everything was wonderful, There was electricty.. there were working schools and hospitals, etc.. In fact he said.. Iraq was having an economic boom. you know.. general all candy and flowers meme. Maybe he's one of Cheney's deciples. I swear it the Strawberry/Kiwi flavored kool-iad.. Stay away from that stuff.

[Zodiak]

10. We've heard that one before

The one that floored me is that he paints Bush as this guy who reads and thinks and consults the leading scholars in the world on the Middle East.

Really now?

Any of those scholars liberal? Didn't think so....even though most scholars are left-leaning.

[SaveAmerica]

8. I don't know either, but I believe 30% of America just fell in love.

I love the person who was on earlier and was in his face with the facts (I've loved the majority of the comments all morning as a matter of a fact, one woman earlier during the 'embolding the enemy' segment said that we were following a fool when she spoke of w).

[acmejack]

12. Mark Steyn, they have him on all the time.

He is Conrad Black's pet neocon, a Canadian Neo. http://www.marksteyn.com/index2.cfm?edit_id=32

[Zodiak]

13. but he has a British accent....

(head spins)

I must admit I have never heard a Canadian with that accent.

[brook]

14. He went to school

for a bit in England. Never graduated.Was Conrad Black's pet monkey for years.

[Zodiak]

16. Oh, so he has Madonna syndrome

I've seen that before. I had a debate coach in Texas that vacationed in Britain for a week. She came back with a British accent that never went away.

True, but sad, story.

[Alamom]

15. We watched that....He was a total & completeass. n/t
