America Is Doomed

Charles Johnson has the line of the day:

And won’t that be a glorious day! No more coercive power! Just enlightened non-academic humans, contemplating.
You know, I can hardly wait.

A new world order is coming led by the raging bureacrats of the socialist states. I'm going to hide now.

Update: I misspoke myself, this is funnier:

John McCain gave a good speech last night, emphasizing the need for resoluteness and unity in winning the war on terror. But an odd thing happened at one point in the speech: He said something about a "disingenuous filmmaker," whereupon the audience erupted in boos--and indeed, who wouldn't boo disingenuous filmmakers?
What's odd is that as this was going on, the TV cameras (we were watching at home) focused in on a fat, disheveled-looking man with several days' growth of beard, who apparently was sitting in the hall somewhere. The man looked dazed and confused; he was smiling as everyone else booed.
Apparently the GOP is issuing convention credentials to homeless guys. Isn't that taking the "compassionate conservatism" thing a little far?
