That's right, kossacks--now that Bob's feeding tube is out (hope you got my card!), I propose that we add his name to that illustrious roll of Americans who've been introduced, chin first, to some of American's finest pastries and condiments:
Ann Coulter
Bill Kristol
Pat Buchanan
David Horowitz
and ... drum roll, please ...
Bob Johnson!
I see this as a win-win situation for Bob and all of us, as I'll explain on the flip.
- It satisfies Bob's desire to insert himself, Zelig-like, in public controversies.
- It inoculates dkos against charges of responsibility for, or complicity in, the pie-ing of any and all right-wing shills. The next time this happens to a Coulter/Kristol/Buchanan/Horowitz, we can reply with outrage--sorry, OUTRAGE!--"Why, that's just like what they did to ... BOB JOHNSON!"
- We all know the pleasure of laughing along with Bob Johnson, but we shouldn't discount the fun to be had laughing at him. And really, I think he owes it to us to let us find out.
I propose, in the spirit of sportsmanship, that we let Bob pick his weapon of choice--but that's no reason why you can't propose your own below.
So, Bob - whaddayathink?
