Dear Mitten:
Your guy looked good last night, and you and Mark Steyn are right to object to my guy’s kick-the-richie routine.
Please tell Mr. Steyn not to defenestrate himself, though. We need his brains and that lovely beard of his, and if he chucks himself out the window it will only look like a victory for the Canadian thought police.
As I think some rapper once said, “#%!^ the Canadian thought police!”
