2. My wish for George Will involves his being somehow in sub-Saharan
Africa. Also involved in the narrative are thousands of starving beasts of the plain who see instantaneously that their hunger may be sated by gnawing every last ounce of flesh of a tight-ass rightwing tool.

In the morning, the search party will find only the torn shards of a bow tie...

3. Then the starving beasts will think
they had Tucker Carlson for dinner. Same taste I am sure.

7. His body language was very telling this morning...
I guess he did not like being on a show where he was out-numbered by the left. With Katrina, Bill Maher, and Reverend Al on the left, Will only had Matthew Dowd to help him out. He was totally disgusted with the panel, it seemed to me.

Also, I was disappointed that Bill Maher did not call him on his remarks that windmills kill more birds than oil spills. How does he know that?? Is there a statistic out there about birds killed by windmills??

9. Pesticides kill 40 million, wind turbines between 10k-40k. See link below
­Collisions with wind turbines account for about one-tenth of a percent of all "unnatural" bird deaths in the United States each year.
