Mark Steyn on George Clooney on National Review Online

How about that? I don’t know about you but I was getting so sick of the sycophantic Joe McCarthy biopics churned out year in year out — Nathan Lane in McCarthy! The Musical was the final straw — that thank God someone finally had the “bravery” to exercise his “right to dissent.” I only hope George Clooney isn’t found dead in the street at the hands of some crazed nonagenarian HUAC member…

That’s classic pure genius Steyn, a great writer from the land of the curlers. Here’s more from the little bit you can read at the link:

Wow. He was brave enough to make a movie about Islam’s treatment of women? Oh, no, wait. That was the Dutch director Theo van Gogh: He had his throat cut and half-a-dozen bullets pumped into him by an enraged Muslim who left an explanatory note pinned to the dagger he stuck in his chest. At last year’s Oscars, the Hollywood crowd were too busy championing the “right to dissent” in the Bushitler tyranny to find room even to namecheck Mr. van Gogh in the montage of the deceased. Bad karma.

Just an eensy reminder to the seeming thousands of flakes out there who think America is some kind of deeply tyrannical place run by the Republican Thought Police. After all, we’ve got Johnny the Swan, for Pete’s sake…how frikkin’ bad can it be?
