Insult of the Week

While the main topic is some other politician, and the piece as a whole is only so-so, I liked that the NYT's Robert Mackey treated Osama bin Laden and Terry Jones as equals back on Friday.

And not the real Terry Jones, either.

So, in the spirit of mocking bin Laden by treating him as the equal of some guy who managed to get in the headlines for a few minutes, I'll present three quotations, and let you guess which of these three newsmakers -- Osama bin Laden, Terry Jones, or Terry Jones -- said which:

1. "You're always on about it. 'Will the girls like this? Will the girls like that? Is it too big? Is it too small?'"

2. "The text, vic! Don't say the text!"

3. "We use choicest juicy chunks of fresh Cornish ram's bladder, emptied, steamed, flavoured with sesame seeds, whipped into a fondue and garnished with lark's vomit."

Enjoy!

  1. Well, I'm just glad it wasn't about She-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named (for a month.)

    Cheers!
