Debbie Schlussel: Dumb Editorial Column of the Day


By Debbie Schlussel

Yet another reason why the USA Today op-ed page is completely irrelevant. And dumb:

Today's USA Today op-ed page has a column by Lionel Beehner of the lefty Council on Foreign Relations with this absurd headline:

A Bush-Ahmadinejad Debate? Why Not?

Anyone who needs to ask this question is a complete moron. It's a headline more suited for The Onion. This is not a Coke-Pepsi taste test, in which both commodities are equal.

We're lucky Beehner and McPaper weren't around for this op-ed:

A Roosevelt/Truman-Hitler Debate? Why Not?

Among other stupidities encapsulated in the Beehner op-ed, is his anger that President Bush is ignoring "the Iranian leader's quirky blog."

Quirky? The guy is a madman loon who could annihilate the world. And he calls him "quirky"?!

Which leads us to the op-ed we would write:

A Council on Foreign Relations? Why?

The only good thing ever to grace the USA Today op-ed page is our friend, Cal Thomas. Other than that, it is pure birdcage liner.
