    Hmmm…I think Lowry actually as pretty reasonable as these guys go…but this is just embarrassing


  2. Flamethrower says:

    He gives Byron “Case Closed” York a run for his money.

    All hail the king! The king is dead!

    Way to go team. Now we have 3 more weeks to let the truth about Bolton to be known. Maybe the media will print some of the stuff instead of having to go out to blogs to get it.

    But being the young upstart feels pretty good today.

    Darn, it looks like I won’t be so easily confirmed now! Thwarted again in my plans to neoconservatize the world!


  5. Xylotomist says:

    To be fair, he attributes it to Biden. Not sure whether Biden actually said that, though.


  6. Jon says:

    Remember that Lowry was an early proponent of democracy expansion that is part and parcel of the Bush Doctrine.

    On September 12, 2001, Lowry said:

    The American response should be closer to something along these lines: identifying the one or two nations most closely associated with our enemies, giving them 24-hours notice to evacuate their capitals (in keeping with our desire to wage war as morally as possible), then systematically destroying every significant piece of military, financial, and political infrastructure in those cities.


  7. Terry says:

    In other news, Dionigi Tettamanzi was elected pope.


  8. Rob says:

    Why, I remember when Lowry called the election for Dewey in ‘48–no, wait….
