Mark Steyn rocks. In writing about the Left's reaction to the current situation, after a few paragraphs filled with quotes from such folks which are all about "breeding" - intolerance breeds violence...etc, Steyn remarks:

a large swath of the Left has settled into an endless dopey roundelay, a vast Schnitzlerian carousel where every abstract noun is carrying on like Anthony Quinn on Viagra. Instability breeds resentment, resentment breeds inertia, inertia breeds generalities, generalities breed clichés, clichés breed lame metaphors, until we reach the pitiful state of the peacenik opinion columns where, to modify the old evening news motto, if it breeds it leads.

Go here for the piece.
