Same old formula keeps real stories in the shadows : An excellent article from everyone's favourite US-based English rabble rouser. As usual, amidst the exaggeration there are some pearls of wisdom from the boy Swells.
I'm not sure if suggesting Columbine was the result of 'bully-coddling' has any more steam than the 'Marilyn Manson' platform, but it sure sounds better. Wells should write a book: "Steven Wells Hates America (subtitle: "but really thinks it means well and is trying hard.")

Suprised he didn't mention casting Adam Sandler in the Longest Yard. Note to Hollywood types: Tough guys being funny works. Funny Guys being tough doesn't. Coming up next, Jerry Seinfeld, Kevin Kline, Chris Rock, and Adam Sandler in "The Dirty Dozen". Rock: Man we ain't shavin' in cold water. Seinfeld: "Cold water, what are these people thinking? Who shaves in cold water??" Kline: "I can't stop my leg...." Sandler: "I'm so goofy, it's kinda cute... isn't it??"
