BREAKING OMG NEWS FROM CNN!!!!
Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley of Iowa, who has long been an outspoken critic of President Barack Obama, used scathing language in a tweet Saturday to condemn the president’s remarks about the Supreme Court last week.
Scathing! Language! Why that’s… that’s… that’s Outrageous!
Back in the Nineties, while we were still living in Oregon, we had occasion to visit Los Angeles for a publishing conference. We borrowed Dad’s van for the trip south — unlike our Chevette, it had air conditioning — and stayed with a friend an hour east of the conference’s downtown location.
The van, alas, was not as roadworthy as we expected. One weekday afternoon, crawling back to our friend’s place on a Great Big Freeway during rush hour, the van began to stall. It wasn’t completely dead, but the slow speeds were killing it. We would pull over, wait five or ten minutes, and try again.
It was during one of those punctuated stops, on an elevated stretch of road, that we noticed the exit sign:
EAST L.A.
Oh, shit, we thought. This is the last place we want to be stuck with a stalled van.

You may have heard that NRO’s John Derbyshire published an outrage-baiting post Friday that outraged the congenitally outrageable: Something about telling his kids to avoid black neighborhoods because those niggers will pop a cap in your cracker ass.
We might be over-paraphrasing that. Let’s check in with the source:
