Today's Don't Sugarcoat It award goes to Tengrain at Mock, Paper Scissors, for his lovely eulogy for Jeanne Kirkpatrick. Tengrain is one of the more talented bloggers out there: great writing, terrific commenting here and elsewhere, and web design that just knocks me for a loop every time.
As you may remember, the Don't Sugarcoat It award is reserved for individual bloggers who tell it like it is. If we could give one to a MSM kinda person, I would choose The New Yorker's Hendrik Hertzberg on a regular basis. Here's a comment, overstating the obvious, but still, from the December 4 issue:
According to the “Backwards Bush” countdown clock, available on the Web and in key-chain and desk-accessory form at selected novelty and toy stores around the nation, the sitting Administration in Washington will, as of this writing, be in office for another seven hundred and eighty-nine days, five hours, twenty-three minutes, and 36.2 seconds. But, if present trends continue, it’s going to feel like forever.
From Tengrain, too.
Gosh, Blue Gal, I'm blushing, sugar always does that to me.

I find many of the post on Mock Paper Scissors unrespectfullike of the President.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I understand the blog is under surveillance by Fox security.
My advice is stay away from "Grain"
he's a bad'un.
Hey there, Mr. DeBakey. Too bad FOX News doesn't have a branch investigation office in Edmonton, Alberta. Or do they?
ReplyDeleteRupert. Is that you?
