    Did not see this anywhere else on SJ ect ect

    Came across reading Matt Taibbi's blog spot that takes on Tom Friedman.

    His basic premise is that Friedman just rewrites the same non sensical stuff over
    and over.

    Someone even started a Tom Friedman column generator. Just click the button
    and you have an instant Tom Friedman column.

    Surprised That The Times has not forced this guy to take down the graphics.

    Neat. When does Rolling Stone start writing good music reviews, again?

    Does Mick Jagger have a new solo album coming out any time soon?

    Low-hanging fruit. Friedman may be getting lazy, but he's a helluva lot more accomplished than Taibbi.

    Oh dear, I hope this one doesn't get political too.

    My god, it's the doorbell. Another gay man is here to suck my cock. Third one today. Why me, Lord, why me?
