Before Rush... before Ann... there was... Ed Anger -- and he's back (UPDATED)
All — If you're like me, and grew up in liberal environs, the first and only "right wing columnist" you ever read was "Ed Anger", the perpetually 72-year-old curmudgeon at the Weekly World News who was always "madder than..." about something or other.

It's bad enough America picked a commie President with a crazy name, but now Minnesota went and made some potty mouth "comedian" a senator. Our Founding Fathers didn't die at the Boston Tea Party just so a four-eyed squirt like Franken could get himself elected. If George Washington were alive today, he'd slap every idiot in Minnesota with a cold slab of dried out fish, except they'd ...
