- Desperate Dems no match for Arnie Via The Professor. Steyn not only manages to be accurate and informative, but witty as well. Unlike Maureen Dowd, he's not just another "Don Rickles with an exceptionally high language quotient".You gotta admire the way the media stayed on the Democrats' sinking California ship right to the very end. On the CNN Web site, even after Gray Davis had conceded, they were sticking to the loser's talking-points: |

- Watching Hugo Chavez in his weekly TV program can be surreal. I usually can't stand it so that I simply watch the recap later on TV of the most "significant" things he said. Sometimes as I watch, I am not sure whether I am seeing the real thing or a parody of our President. It is not easy to transmit the style to those that have never seen Hugo Chavez in action. A week ago it really seemed like a parody as Chavez spoke and sang Christmas songs laughing at the opposition. |
