Just to give you all a break from countless talking about illegal wiretaps that threaten the very Constitution of the United States, comes this snippet from Paul Wells of Macleans magazine (a Canadian national newsmag similar to Time or Newsweek) at his blog. Why does Paul get into a tizzy over Conrad Burns when he could have better things to cover (like the Canadian Election Campaign)?
Here’s Paul’s reason:
The moronic twit, who disgraces the great state of Montana by traipsing around claiming to speak for it in the Senate, seems to be the last person on Earth who still believes “the terrorists who hit us on 9/11 crossed the border from Canada.” The CBC just played the clip.
Paul then links in his entry to a story about Burns being rated one of the most corrupt in the Senate… and proceeds to call him a loser.
Consider that Mr Wells is considered a moderate writer not unwilling to take on any comers in the political spectrum.
He doesnt often dabble in American politics, so it takes a special act of sillyness to get him to turn his wrath southward at a political figure.
