Scott Campbell points out that "the Washington Times commentary pages now feature as regular columnists Mark Steyn, Thomas Sowell, Michelle Malkin and Larry Kudlow."
I know the Washington Times is something of a joke newspaper, but… Christ… that’s a level of ultra-right pro-torture lunacy (MS, MM) and mindless economic idiocy (LK) at which even NRO would balk. The paper has *one* columnist with any integrity, and even he’s about as paleoconservative as it gets…
Scott also mentions a "very important Tech Central Station interview". Unless anyone can come up with a better suggestion in the comments, this is the official SBBS Oxymoron of the Week.
"A very sensible Harry’s Place thread"
"Libertarian sense of humour"
"In Melanie Phillips’ admirably balanced and well-reasoned article…"
"Libertarian Party"
"Libertarian Party"
I misread that and started thinking about what a ‘Libertarian Party’ would be like.
It’d have to be Bring Your Own Bottle, wouldn’t it?
"Economic Management"
Oh Oh and another one…
"Socialist Nirvana"
"Real Story with Fiona Bruce"
It’d have to be Bring Your Own Bottle, wouldn’t it?
Yes, but you’d also have to bring money to pay for crossing the threshold. Then of course you would need to pay to use the bathroom. Don’t forget the rental charges for the seat, and of course wear and tear on the carpet. And air ain’t free, you know. It’s MY air, it’s in MY property, therefore you only rent it and have to pay…
Another oxymoron candidate – "Libertarianism – the future"

Actually, they’d probably just give the host smallpox on a blanket, force the host’s children out into the shed and then spend the rest of the party arguing about who can open the fridge and whether the punch is collectivist or not.
"Libertarian without internet access"
Oh, OK, then: "generous socialist", "loyal socialist", "non-back-stabbing socialist".
"at which even NRO would balk"
Sorry to burst your bubble, but they’ve all contributed to National Review, which is quite a sales pitch to say the least (and makes me want to re-up my scrip early)! As for the Times, what do you expect from the paper that Reagan read every day, Barbara Streisand?
"Decent Left"
"Socialist Worker"
"George Galloway’s Respect"
> George Galloway’s Respect
Oo, that’s a good one.
"Jennifer Saunders finest hour"
