Nine days till Christmas, and there's too much to do. But we've still managed to catch and ponder a few items in the news. Here goes:
In the same week that the dumb Iraq war he supported ends, so does Christopher Hitchens. While we cats are not unreserved Hitchens fans, we still find it satisfying when our simple-minded society pauses to note the death of a writer.
We've always considered Canadian Prime Minister Stephen Harper to be super-lame, but this takes the cake: Apparently his 2011 holiday card has been Photoshopped. (Everyone but Mrs. Harper is sporting the same clothes they wore in 2010.) Tacky!
Speaking of naughty boys, Karl Rove is tired of all the Republican debates and thinks they should stop. Inquiring minds want to know: Why should a man who planted a hidden earpiece on his candidate have any credibility on the subject of debates?
It looks like Michele Bachmann really cleaned Newt Gingrich's clock last night — partly because she got tired of him treating her condescendingly. How ironic. Hello, Republican women! This is your party: old white guys who want to control and dismiss you.
Finally, we cats recall averring last month that it's the Obama haters in this country who have the guns. This morning, we rest our case.
