Every once in a while, I wander off to The Corner, the official blog of the National Review. Now even though I disagree with them, I will concede that there are many smart people at the Review. Unfortunately, few of them seem to have been posting last night. Here are a couple of bon mots:

From Katherine Jean Lopez:

During the Clinton years, we already had the distinct impression Clinton took the presidency at times with all the seriousness of a spoiled, drunk college kid.

As opposed to the spoiled, drunk college kid who currently holds the office, I suppose. You'd think that's a phrase Bush supporters would try to avoid.

And then we have this from Tim Graham, in response to Kerry's criticism of Bush for making WMD jokes the other night at the Washington Correspondents' Dinner:

But Kerry's outraged response "as a veteran" is twice as lame as any of Bush's jokes. Has Kerry never told a war joke...in his life? A Vietnam joke? How about a few months ago, when he joked that when he came back from Vietnam, John Edwards was still in diapers?

That's the best example he could offer? For crissakes, it's not even a war joke. To paraphrase Admiral Stockdale, I think they're out of ammo over there.
