I know these faux op-eds have gotten rarer and rarer. My original intention was to have some sort of regular post thing that would keep me from ignoring teh blog for too long. That didn't work out all that well.
More to the point, Abe Foxman's pathetic condemnation of Sarah Palin has killed it for me. I am incapable of satire in light of the ADL statement. I mean, I suppose I could have come up with a more outrageous and hypocritical bit of justification (although it would have taken some serious effort) but I never could have matched the sheer obscene ridiculousness of it in context.
So I'm giving it up. At least for now. Some day I may come back to trying to match George Will's dishonesty or Richard Cohen's hilariousness, but I don't see that day coming soon.

Ok, well you may not have faux editorials to keep you engaged, but you still have dirty doggerel and phunny photoshopping. Isn't that enough?
sorry to see you go. See you at Sadly, I guess. Or feel free to visit my crappy lil blog, after I get done with this robot thing.
Just the Sunday Auditions. I'll keep my usual one post every three weeks or so pace going here. I still plan on breaking a hundred posts this year.
Live the dream, brother!
Dude: Abe Foxman is in some other dumb country!
