A man without a Blog

That may soon be John Derbyshire who is not playing along with the self-referential cool kids at the intersection of Debra Orin is always Right (especially if we never fact-check her) Street & She's also ... the Hot...Avenue:

A GENERAL EXPLAINS [John Derbyshire]
On O'Reilly last night, Bill discussed the current state of play in Iraq with Zell Miller and Lt. Gen. Thomas McInerney (US Air Force, Ret.) The following exchange took place:

---Bill: Insurgent attacks on a daily basis have almost doubled from 2004 to 2005. What does that say?

---The General: It says that the terrorists, the insurgents, are fighting even harder because they know they are losing.

[Derb] So I guess if the insurgents are killing twice as many people again this time next year, we'll know we really have them on the ropes!

Ye gods.
