Harsh

Mark Steyn is in fine form with this pithy piece:

All Bumps No Road

Mark has a way with words:
 That bump in the road is just a quarter-pounder with cheese that fell off the counter on the drive-thru lane to recovery. Like every other blessing, we owe the Big MacConomy to the wisdom of Good King Barack. 
That is some imagery for you. Or this on the Stockton DOE SWAT raid:
The Department of Education issues search warrants? Who knew? The Brokest Nation in History is the only country in the developed world whose education secretary has his own Delta Force. 
Isn't it customary when you are behind in loan payments that you get a letter or a phone call or even a visit from a collection agency. And don't those things usually come to the residence of the individual that owes the money rather than other family and ex-family members?

And just so you feel comfortable and a bit titillated on your next trip out of Weinerville International Airport:
A 24-year-old woman has been awarded compensation of $2,350 after TSA agents exposed her breasts to all and sundry at the Corpus Christi Airport security line and provided Weineresque play-by-play commentary. “We regret that the passenger had an unpleasant experience,” said a TSA spokesgroper, also very Weinerly. But hey, those are a couple of cute bumps on the road, lady!  
Ahh, yes, the Land of the Once-Free and the Home of the Less Brave soldiers on under the leadership and oratory of our Great Leader.
