traditionalguy said...: Death seems to be winning more often these days. Our good fight in this life is always a fight against death, which is a cruel and implacable foe. Never surrender! I read in the obit that Dominick Dunne won a Bronze Star for risking his life rescuing other wounded soldiers during the WW2 Battle of the Buldge. So Dunne was a good man fighting a good fight, which makes him special among those four equated persons. In Obama's Harvard ruled world the Bronze Stars will be for saving money by abandoning others to death, which as Palin pointed out is Evil.; 8/27/09, 10:02 AM

kentuckyliz said...: The proper notation of the analogy is:

Michael Jackson : Ted Kennedy :: Farrah Fawcett : Dominick Dunne

I don't know if it's proper to include the spaces around the colons but it sure is easier on the eyes. And that's not a Farrah beautiful, anal cancer pun. It just sounds like it's trying to be.

That sounds like onomatopœia.
