Killer meme

A reader directs me to a Lloyd Grove column with the following item:
Does right-wing comedy have a future in Manhattan -- the Death Star of the liberal elite?

FoxNews.com pundit Julia Gorin sure hopes so, as do her fellow conservative jokesters, New York Post editorialist Robert George and Marine Cpl. Luke Thomas.

"Conservatives have a reputation for being humorless and unhip, but I want people to know that we're not that scary," said the 31-year-old Gorin, who tomorrow night joins George and Thomas for "Republican Riot," an evening of standup comedy at Don't Tell Mama Cabaret on W. 46th St.

"I want them to know that we have a sense of humor and warmth and personality - even though Republicans are always being referred to by New Yorkers as 'aliens.'"

... "John Kerry better hope Hillary doesn't decide to become his running mate. Does he really think she'll let him live long enough to see the first 100 Days? She's not waiting four years to become President; she'll let him get inaugurated, but then he'll go the way of Ron Brown, Vince Foster and Buddy the dog."

Hee haw! A real knee-slapper, courtesy of Rush Limbaugh.

It's becoming obvious that clowns are hoping Hillary becomes Kerry's running mate, just so they can regale us with this meme until the inevitable assassination attempt by a deranged right-winger -- which they will then blame on Hillary, of course.

Hey, don't you guys know when it's just a joke?
