What's PJ O'Rourke take on Bush and Iraq?
Edited on Mon Nov-10-03 03:30 PM by Screaming Lord Byron
Haven't heard much from PJ in a while. Anyone know what he's been saying about recent events? He's about the only Republican I have any time for (still, not that much time)

2. Absolutely. Pretty much 180 degree turn around.
Still, much smarter then Coulter, Hannity et al.

3. He has an article from Iraq in the most recent Atlantic Monthly
I haven't gotten around to read it yet. Like everything he writes, it should be entertaining.

4. I used to love PJ O'Rourke
But that was befire I realized that the Freepers/Dittoheads wanted to destroy America in order to posess the Totalitarian One-Party State left over.

I cannot even look at that fuck without getting :puke: :puke: :argh:

Even though PJ is more intelligent and a bit (a very small bit) more evenhanded, he is a Bushevik swine, pure and simple.

Fuck him.

6. Agreed. But I want to see what logic leaps he uses to defend this.

7. Probably a couple hundred grand.
Livin's easy when you sell out and become a rightwing shill.

8. Come on, I want to see him squirm defending this nonsense.
It's much more fun that way. His silence is significant.

9. Methinks he's choking on his own words, to wit. . .
The Republicans are the party who say government doesn't work, and then they get elected and prove it"
