Does Mark Steyn read Marchron, too?
He's Still A Genius, By The WayColumnist extraordinaire Mark Steyn touches upon not one, but two topics I've addressed in his piece in today's Telegraph: "The eye doctor never saw it coming"
I don't suppose Bashar al-Assad has much in common with Eric Clapton - though, come to think of it, "Layla" is a Lebanese name, and there must be a few of them among the smouldering, raven-tressed, black-eyed Beirut babes so fetchingly demanding their nation's freedom on the covers of this week's Economist, Newsweek, Weekly Standard et al.The topics are too broad to definitely state that Steyn digs my stuff, but I'll continue to comb evidence, perhaps while listening to Clapton's Unplugged album.
. . .
It's one thing for Bush to demand Syria gets out of Lebanon, but what's with Crown Prince Abdullah piling on? Not to mention Jacques Chirac, hitherto every dictator's best friend. Clapton-wise, Boy Assad is Derek and everybody else is trying to avoid being one of the Dominoes.
OK, that's enough Domino theory.
He put me in the mood for it.
