George Will on Michelle Bachman:

[Are_grits_groceries]

Some of her supposed excesses are, however, not merely defensible, they are admirable.

(When she was a teenager in Anoka, Minn., she was a nanny for a young girl named Gretchen Carlson.)

He has lost his mind if there was one to lose. Somewhere among her nuggets of nuts, there may be a sane remark. Will has obviously not listened to most of her lunacy. She is a vacuous twit.

I think Will needs to stick to baseball. He may not know as much as he thinks about that either.

1. George Will is an "old time" republican

Must suck to see what's become of his party. He scrapes to try to defend his belief system. Actually, he is way out of sync with them, and it's kind of sad to see him defend any of it. His time is gone. He should be permanently replaced on Steph's show. Same with Cokie & Sam. They are way past their prime and it's embarrassing to see them try to be relevant.

2. That's true.

I really don't think Will knows how to operate in this changing environment. His party is being hijacked by Palin and other loons. I think he is in denial, and he is trying to fit them into a conventional mold so he can understand them.

Hey George! They won't fit.

3. That officious prick Will

defends any RWer whose intellect he does not perceive as approaching his own. However, if the RWer is somewhat 'erudite' (read: literate in that vaguely annoying way) he becomes hyper-critical of his or her 'prose'. Will acts as the grand old club master, wielding his powers via his insanely-constructed diarrheac prose which has not changed 'one whit' since the early 70's. He's a 'formula' writer and is a Royal Pain in the Ass.

4. "wielding his powers"

What are these 'powers' of Will you speak of?

[Blue-Jay]

5. Worst. Porno. Ever.

[Vickers]

8. Har!

I can't believe it took me so long to figure that out...

6. So much for thinking conservatives.

Though I often disagreed with George Will he usually had something intelligent to say. Not this time around.

[Vickers]

7. George Will molested the corpse of Ronald Reagan.

I read that somewhere.

9. Does her husband know?
