Last night Jonah Goldberg diagnosed himself and members of his ilk as sufferers of Mm'Doh!: "Miers Mental Dementia Obsessive Hysteria." Symptoms may include lumping together contradictory psychological disorders for cute acronym purposes, and making reference to the following in a single NRO column:
• "Cheez Whiz-sucking Joe Six-Packs"
• "schoolmarms"
• "Federalist phantasms [declaring,] 'keep 'em barefoot and in the West Wing.'"
• Ed Gillespie in a "tie-dyed muumuu, [setting] fire to a very sensible bra..."
• "American womyn"
• George Will using handpuppets
• hurling oneself onto the keyboard like the "Phantom of the Opera to bang out an evil melody about the president's folly."
• The Longest Yard
• peach cobbler
• St. Vitus's dance
• Saudi royal concubines
• Howard Fineman of Newsweek
Sorry, Jonah. We can't help those who don't first learn to help themselves.
Mm’Doh! [NRO]
