Clever Comedian
The Sunday Telegraph - Believe me, George Bush is a genius. By Alan B’Stard
That is why the Anglo-American alliance has to consider an invasion of Iran - to secure and squander their oil. I know some of you fear that to invade Iran, on the pretext of combating the nuclear aspirations of President Ahmydinnerjacket, will make it even easier for the likes of Osama bin Laden to spread their poisonous gospel (if you’ll pardon the expression). You fear that a limited surgical strike against Iran’s nuclear industry will inspire more terrorist outrages in the West.
Perhaps it will, but it’s a risk Tony and I would be prepared to take even if we didn’t have platoons of commandos providing 24/7 security for us and our families. You see, it is simply unacceptable for a nation state to develop nuclear weapons and threaten to use them to destroy another country; that’s America’s job.
This guy’s an idiot. This is what they replace Mark Steyn with?

Heh! he used the same joke I stole: Ahmadinnerjacket/Ahmydinnerjacket! Thief.

Yeah, and he’s ripping off my most loyal readers!

Alan B’Stard is a fictional character played by the “alternative” comedian Rik Mayall. He was created in the eighties, the era of High Thatcherism, and ran as a comedy series. The character is an up-market amoral grapsping greedy thug, the standard Lefty caricature of a Thatcherite. He disapperared from the telly when New Labour came in, but he’s been recently revived and is touring Britain’s theatres making the very laboured point that New Labour is indistinguishable from the Tories in the 90s. So ha ha the Telegraph, and that’s why I read the Sunday Times now - it’s got Clarkson.

Clarkson is definitely the goods. Good choice.
Good luck with the new guy Mr Telegraph.

Yeah I know, he just isn’t funny.
Apparently Rupie wants to launch an American edition of The Times, but I doubt it’ll be as good.
