Too many Daves...

Did I ever tell you that Mrs. McCave
Had twenty-three sons and she named them all Dave?

Well, she did. And that wasn't a smart thing to do.

You see, when she wants one and calls out, "Yoo-Hoo!
Come into the house, Dave!" she doesn't get ONE.
All twenty-three Daves of hers come on the run!

This makes things quite difficult at the McCaves'
As you can imagine, with so many Daves.
And often she wishes that, when they were born,

She had named one of them Bodkin Van Horn
And one of them Hoos-Foos. And one of them Snimm.
And one of them Hot-Shot. And one Sunny Jim.

And one of them Shadrack. And one of them Blinkey.
And one of them Stuffy. And one of them Stinkey.
Another one Putt-Putt. Another one Moon Face.
Another one Marvin O'Gravel Balloon Face.

And one of them Ziggy. And one Soggy Muff.
One Buffalo Bill. And one Biffalo Buff.
And one of them Sneepy. And one Weepy Weed.

And one Paris Garters. And one Harris Tweed.
And one of them Sir Michael Carmichael Zutt
And one of them Oliver Boliver Butt
And one of them Zanzibar Buck-Buck McFate...
But she didn't do it. And now it's too late.


Dr. Seuss would do a far better job as a political pundit then these two GOP Gunga Dins from the WaPo.

David S. Broder - Why Is This GOP Strategist Smiling? - washingtonpost.com
Cole argues that the House Democratic leadership has made a strategic error by wielding its narrow majority to craft partisan bills that invite a Bush veto. That was the case with several resolutions to shorten the Iraq war, and it will be the case later this fall with a series of appropriations bills. Polarization is exactly what the voters hate, Cole said; they are looking for cooperation and agreement.
Hoo boy... Dave, old pal, have I got a deal for you - an antique, historic bridge between downtown Brooklyn and Manhattan I can get you for a song...

David Ignatius - 'A Way Out' for Iran - washingtonpost.com
If you read the liberal blogosphere, and even the stately New Yorker magazine, you get the impression that the Bush administration is itching to drop a bomb on Iran. But talking with senior administration officials this week, I hear a different line:

They worry about Iranian actions, and they are disappointed that diplomatic overtures to Iran so far have resulted in little progress. They believe that Washington and Tehran remain on a collision course over Iran's nuclear program and its destabilizing activities in Iraq. But senior officials say they are seeking to avoid military conflict.
News flash fer ya, Ignatz: you've been used by these lying bastards more times than a pack of Trojans at a College Republican gang-bang. You're about as worn-out and worthless as a Coney Island Whitefish floating down the Gowanus canal. And senior blogospheric officials have reliably reported to this DFH that you are indeed an asshole.

Now, for those of you seeking a well-reasoned yet trenchant fisking of these two useless scumbags and their incredibly gullible stenographics, I recommend the inimitable Glenn Greenwald over at Salon. I'm too angry and juiced on DD coffee to write anything but profanity at this point. Fuckers.
