Children’s Book By Limbaugh a Frightening Notion Indeed
The release date for Rush Revere and the Brave Pilgrims is set for October 29, two days before Halloween, which seems entirely appropriate. After all, it’s tough to think of a cultural development more frightening than one of conservatism’s most age-inappropriate personalities peddling his ideas specifically to young kids. … Except maybe for Rush’s on-air musing that, if the book sells well, he plans to expand it into a series.

Sullivan: Enough with the Eye-Rolling Already!
I’m tired of the eye-rolling and the easy nit-picking of the president’s leadership on this over the last few weeks. The truth is: his threat of war galvanized the world and America, raised the profile of the issue of chemical weapons more powerfully than ever before, ensured that this atrocity would not be easily ignored and fostered a diplomatic initiative to resolve the issue without use of arms.
— Andrew Sullivan, writing on his Dish blog.
Over His Diplomacy
Last night as President Obama explained his Syria stance,
Most of America watched “So You Think You Can Dance.”
We’ve all grown so weary of
His position(s) on Syria,
That he might as well be the president of France.
