This "analysis" is worse than a Frank Rich column. It is less than thoughtless; it contains negative thought. Every other phrase is a shopworn infotainment cliché. Its nearest approach to an empirical point is counting the number of times someone says the word "terrorism," which proves that the Attorney General is serious about security in the same way that counting the number of times Emeril Lagasse says BAM! demonstrates his dedication to the culinary arts.

BAM
Kick it up a notch.
This is truly the state of American political discourse. "Pork fat rules!"
is Frank Rich worse than Emeril? let's step back, take the long view, and put things in perspective here.
This bomb was straight out of the My 'Lil Terrorist coloring book (page 3). There's plenty of ten year olds in Texas who could have made you a cooler bomb (and with the same M88s, too).
But it was enough to scare this "analyist" who apparently wanted a more bitchin' response from Our Leader. Maybe the President should have said, "you can run, but you can't hide."
Now that's fuckin' leadership.
and a failed car bombing that narrowly missed creating carnage in Times Square
Vertov has basically taken care of this already, but according to this breathless definition, my sock drawer in Connecticut narrowly missed creating carnage in Times Square. It's almost certainly more flammable.
And I'd rather have the Attorney General be serious about acknowledging the rights of the accused, because despite my cynical exterior, I still have a squishy pwoggy center. At least Scheherazade hasn't (yet) been transferred to a military brig for indefinite detention, even though there's at least as much justification as for Jose Padilla, thought criminal.
"Which words should be said?"
I dunno. "Should I stay or should I go?" "It's a floor wax AND a dessert topping?" "Go fuck yourself with a flencing spade?"
"How long is a Chinaman's name?"
Christ. Eye-watering inanity.
Jesus, Tom, I was just speculatin' about a hypothesis. I know I don't know nothin'.
Emeril is still on tv?
"How can they convey a sense that they are on top of a rapidly changing situation?"
But they are on top of it, thusly.
"Every other phrase is a shopworn infotainment cliché"
Every **other** phrase?!?! The bitch is getting full pay for meeting half her quota?!?

Well, didn't the Paki version of polizei Renault round up a few of the usual suspects?
And isn't that proof of the smooth running of US's imperium?
That counts for nothing to WaPo hacks?
