When Did He start Writing For The Weekly Standard?

P.J. O'Rourke gives us his opinions on the rash of corporate accounting scandals (via Daily Pundit). As usual, hilarity ensues:

Corporate corruption has ecological merits. It's helping to preserve that species known as Democrats--thought to be endangered as recently as the year 2000. Democrats are an important part of the Washington ecosystem. Extinction of Democrats would lead to serious disruption in the food chain. We of the bloodthirsty right-wing press would be forced to rely for our prey solely on John McCain.

And there's more. Suddenly our kids think we're hip. "Gangsta Rap" is very popular with today's teens, as is dressing in prison garb and acting and speaking as if one belonged to the Crips, the Bloods, or some other criminal organization. The subculture of felons is in great vogue among adolescents. Enron, WorldCom, Tyco, and so forth allow us Republicans to say to America's young people, "We be thugs." The GOP may capture the youth vote at last.

I can just picture the election night young Republicans meeting. Angry looking pasty young men wearing weaing a suit, tie, and beanie hat, drinking 40's and shouting "G-O-P Bi-zatch!" Suddenly they pull out their glocks and start busting caps, "Yeah bitch, we takin' the Hiz-ouse!"

I think it might work. I really do.
