Nora Ephron's hilarious riff on Tweety's man-crushes.
Am I the only one who missed her Huffington Post on Tuesday?

If not, here's the link to it: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/nora-ephron/chris-loves-john_b_15276.html

BTW, her conclusion that McCain is irresistable to men is refuted a hundred times in the comments section - - by men.

1. Panting like a collie!!!
I'm only half way through, but had to take a break, because I was laughing so hard at that one observation!

2. I'm glad to see the DU Tweety obsessives are in good company
I occasionally experience Tweety Obsessive Disorder myself, I must admit.

On her other point, I frankly fail to see the charisma of McCain. Sure I respect what he went through in Vietnam, and I was sure rooting for him against Bush in 2000, and I like his occasional maverick actions.

But he sure doesn't cause me to have any man-crushes on him, and I think his persona is kind of dull and stolid.....And the respect I used to have for him evaporated with his butt-kissing in 2004.

3. That's a Great post! Nora
feels like we do. I wonder if anyone ever tells tweety that people notice what an complete elephant's ass he makes of himself?

7. He's such a narcissist, it'd be hard for him to miss a whole piece
about him on the Huffington Post - - and by Nora Ephron, no less.

Ooh, I just love it. :)
