Les Jones: Go Read Tim Blair

Blogging > Go Read Tim Blair

Tim Blair is on a streak lately.

Read his collection of the best quotes of 2003.

"May I just single out for salutations, on the �anti-war� side: Pop Stars For Appeasement, Dancers Against Democracy, Actors For Apathy, Fashionistas For Fascism and Jugglers For Genocide. All of them united under that flaccid flag of convenience, Show-Offs For Saddam." -- Guardian columnist Julie Burchill
"The obnoxious garlic-breathed drunken homosexual concentration-camp bullfighter who's into organised crime." -- Mark Steyn devises a Single European Stereotype

On predictions of the worst books of 2004:

Hans Blix details the search for weapons of mass destruction in Disarming Iraq (Bloomsbury, March). Borders fun: hide all of Blix�s books, then tell the staff you can�t find any. Send them all on a storewide search. Repeatedly ask if they �need more time�. If they get close to your hiding place, deny them access.

And the all-purpose Democrat response for 2004.

Another fun project with the Blix book. About a month before it is released, get a crowd together to go burn the book. Go to a bookstore and ask for the book. When the book seller says they do not have it in, send in a librarian and tell him to look, but make sure you make him leave before he has determined whether the book is there.

Insist that the book must be there anyway, and burn down the bookstore.

When there is no evidence of the book in the ashes of the bookstore, say, "well they had a program to acquire the book". If someone asks, "but did they have the book?", give them your best deadpan smirk and reply, "what's the difference?"
