#1 It warrants the classic graphic of America Longs to Care About Stupid Sh*t Again.
And it DOES relate to WOT in one way - it illustrates we are again becoming as compacent about the threat as we were on 9/10/2001, when the issue of interest was Gary Condit's unprofessional Congressional behavior.

#2 Well, to mangle a quote I don't know the original of in the first place...

"China has central planning by scientists, engineers, and mathematicians, and the US has central planning by lawyers, and furthermore the sort of lawyer who thinks it's a good idea to send pics of his nether regions to coeds, but can't do it without broadcasting to the rest of the world in the process. Guess who's going to suck less."

#3 I dunno, man, how much did that Liu Zhijun chunk and his cronies manage to spirit out of the country during his little high-speed rail scam? I think it was like billions. That's theft on a scale that nobody's been able to pull off in the States, not since the Harding administration at least.

#5 Go Fred! Surely there's a nexus between Weiner, stupid animal stories, and mindless Mohammedan terrorism of something or other.

#7 Well, I'd like to sneak in some of the more colorful jibes:

Weiner, the Peter Tweeter
Weiner's New York Post
Weiner's shveiner
Weiner's fourth branch of government
Darth Weiner's Emperor Palpitate
Weiner's neener

#8 Well,
Weinergate is an insipid, tawdry scandal generated by a liar that diverts attention from the WOT. Glad to see Weinergate come to a ~~head~~ end. Let it be investigated by the House or let the voters of New York handle it.

#9 Voters of New York are probably proud of him...you talk about not having any shame, this is the state that sent Chuck Schumer and Hillary Clinton to the Senate. I know, I know. California does even worse. But at least I know enough to be ashamed of it.
