Maybe the earth will be wiped out by an asteroid

Because at least that would put an end to this Walter Williams stuff. I did another quick check to see if I was premature about the groundswell when I checked on Saturday (if only I had saved that for today, but I thought for sure that Bruce Tinsley would have moved on to ranting about something else by now). Nope. Although a date-sorted google news search on "Walter Williams" (and also "Walter E Williams"), reveals that Mr Williams is one of the last people on earth to still think that global warming isn't real. Yeah, that's just what we need in the 2008 election cycle.

Be a glutton for punishment: Read the strip

Yeah, I felt kinda sorry for Tinsley, on account of his little campaign not really going anywhere--so I decided to help him out by creating the Official Draft Walter Williams Weblog. That oughta do the trick!

My kindly gray-haired mother thinks the point of today's "DNC/D&C" gag-like item was to associate Howard Dean with the noise machine's "The Democrat Party wants to abort black babies" trope (with an implication of "Oh, if only we'd gotten Walter Williams' mother into an abortuary, we wouldn't be having this problem now").

Of course the funniest thing, is I noticed today that this site is the top search result for "mallard fillmore walter williams"

This one is particularly insane. I love the site: I will never feel the need to comment on the Mallard again. I will just direct the interested here.
