Kaus asks.

Duh.

Of course he is - and he always has been.

Better yet, he is only a marketing tool to try to get men to change fashions as quickly as women do. Just a means to an end of making money. Luckily men don't buy into it so much. Sometimes they do but not often.

Men have spent decades shoving women into things that are not only uncomfortable but also look ridiculous and now women are trying to get their own back with the GQ Man.

Oscar Madison: Now kindly remove that spaghetti from my poker table.
[Felix laughs]
Oscar Madison: The hell's so funny?
Felix Ungar: It's not spaghetti, it's linguini.
[Oscar picks up the linguini and hurls it against the kitchen wall]
Oscar Madison: Now it's garbage.

Hey, you're not reading the linked article. This isn't a post about effeminate fashions or whatever! This is a post about the Clintons!

Prof. Althouse,

You must forgive them. They are waiting for you to feel the news at them.

Felix Unger: [to woman on witness stand] Ah... you *assumed*. My dear, you should never *assume*. You see, when you *assume*
[writes the word "assume" on a blackboard]
Felix Unger: , you make an *ass*... out of *you*... and *me*.

GQ is a general interest magazine. Infighting among a campagin staff is boring to most people, and especially to those of us who care more about policy than process. Not to mention the piece may well be completely obsolete by the time it goes to press: a mistake not unlike GQ covering spring fashions in autumn.

This is a perfectly believable scenario. Consistent with the way they've done things for many years.

Hey Kids: Exactly 3 months till Christmas. My Macy's already had their decorations up a month ago. WalMart's have been up since April.

You can't start too soon.

I know I'm fully decorated. Are you?

Oscar Madison: I can't take it anymore, Felix, I'm cracking up. Everything you do irritates me. And when you're not here, the things I know you're gonna do when you come in irritate me. You leave me little notes on my pillow. Told you 158 times I can't stand little notes on my pillow. "We're all out of cornflakes. F.U." Took me three hours to figure out F.U. was Felix Ungar!

Instead of posting inane musings about Bill & Hillary Clinton, over and over again...about ridiculous things relating to campaign infighting or stories being pushed aside...why not address things like this:

"A supporter of Rudy Giuliani's is throwing a party that aims to raise $9.11 per person for the Republican's presidential campaign."

Rudy Giuliani, continuing to use the tragedy of 9/11 to raise money for his campaign.

Absolutely disgusting.

Awwww, if only Althouse could control the dialogue. Maybe the readers should decide the topics. Here's something:

..those Friars are very territorial, even more so than the Elks, or the Shriners!

Plenty of room in the blogosphere for another blog, Lucky. Go ahead and start one and cover anything that interests you.

You and about 7-8 other people.

THE CLINTONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Actually, I did.

And so, duh.

Of course he (Clinton) is - and he always has been.

Clinton Fatigue.

I dread a Hillary victory. We've talking about the Clinton's for 15 years! Enough already. Are Democrats brain dead?!

I don't want to suffer through another 5 (or nine) years of Bill and Hill.

They're like fungus, they never go away.

Well, of course.

Especially considering how great things have been over the past 7 years...compared to the 8 years Bill ran the show.

DUH.
