Look, I'm just going to give up. I'll post Steyn's columns and take the rest of the week off. The real question is: Why does a midget like Maureen Dowd get her idiotic mewlings published twice a week by the New York Times, and you have to work at finding an immensely talented, highly educated and erudite guy like Steyn? Read and enjoy: . On the morning of Nov. 2, the condescending left were convinced that Bush was an idiot. By the evening of Nov. 2, they were convinced that the electorate was. Or as London's Daily Mirror put it in its front page: "How Can 59,054,087 People Be So DUMB?" Well, they're British lefties: They can do without Americans. Whether an American political party can do without Americans is more doubtful.... If you don't want to bother plowing your way through Alterman and Smiley, a placard prominently displayed by a fetching young lad at the post-election anti-Bush rally in San Francisco cut to the chase: "F--- MIDDLE AMERICA." Almost right, man. It would be more accurate to say that "MIDDLE AMERICA" has "F---ed" you, and it will continue to do so every two years as long as Democrats insist that anyone who disagrees with them is, ipso facto, a simpleton http://www.suntimes.com/output/steyn/cst-edt-steyn07.html
