Right here.

Some choice quotes:

On European birth rates:

On the basic problem of [Europe's] deathbed demographics, a reader of mine, Jim Ellinthorpe, thinks President Bush should give speeches mocking the virility of European men. I'm all in favor of this, though mainly on entertainment grounds. A Berlin airlift of cheap generic Viagra might also be useful.

On why NATO should be dismantled:

if you look at last year’s supposed triumph of multilateral cooperation, after the Secretary-General, Jaap de Hoop Scheffer, put the squeeze on Nato’s 26 members, they reluctantly ponied up an extra 600 troops and three helicopters for Afghanistan. That averages out at 23.08 troops per country plus almost a ninth of a helicopter apiece.

On the far left:

or the far left, the issue is always America. So, if America's destabilizing some Marxist-Leninist socialist utopia the left takes the side of the Marxist-Leninist socialist utopia. Likewise, if America's at odds with misogynist racist homophobic theocrats, the left takes the side of the sodomite-beheaders and the freelance clitorectomy performers. That’s entirely consistent once you realize it’s simply a choice of United States vs [Your Name Here].

Read the whole thing--with a martini, preferably...

It's funny how fundies are always trying to project a macho image. I'm reminded of the "Real Men Worship Jesus" bumper sticker. I guess that's what happens when your ideas are intellectually bankrupt.

It's a characteristic shared by the far right. If America antagonistic toward a free and democratic country, the "right" takes the side of America. If America is buddy-buddy with a misogynist racist homophobic theocrats, the right takes the side of America supporting the sodomite-beheaders and the freelance clitorectomy performers. That’s entirely consistent once you realize it’s simply a choice of United States vs [Your Name Here].


I say they're both anti-american, just of different flavors.
