If the artists at Charlie Hebdo drew their illustrations with as many broad strokes and incorrect details as Chuggy Noonan, nobody would have ever been insulted.

If only Andres Serrano had made his "Jesus And Jar of Wee" a multimedia sculpture instead of a photograph, those Catholic Frenchies probably wouldn't have been so keen to have attacked it with hammers!

But then it could have been guzzled by Todd Starnes. Sort of a no-win situation, I guess.

Does Miss Peggy have something stuck in her योनी ?

"Maybe it would be instructive to look at how we in the West handle what is rude and unpleasant and offensive."

We elect them to Congress, obviously!

And is Sister Peggy Noonan switching to scotch instead of gin for 2015? I hope Manuel can keep enough ice in the house.

Well, Dewars was founded in 1846.

And really, that artist who made "Piss Christ" should have named it "Pee-sus Christ".
