Under the Cellar Steps

I remember the good old days when Nicholas von Hoffman was a columnist in the Washington Post. That probably dates me. But the good news for today is that he's still around and still writing. Here's a column on Dubya's trip to Great Britain that is published on The Smirking Chimp.

Key Quote: "No other world public figure rivals George W. Bush in low esteem. The man is despised everywhere. He is a universal hate object. You might think that distinction would have been conferred on Bush's friend, the thug-ugly Vladimir Putin, whose hands are red from his atrocities in Chechnya, but no, the globally reviled politician is the American president."

Hard-hitting, makes its point well. If only it were for a candidate with a chance of winning.
