Standard Stuff

Screeching that "There's already a Weekly Standard" from people, nominally British of course, who cannot grasp that the United Kingdom is not the United States.

They, of course, make the case for The Weekly Standard.

You can buy the Lebanese Daily Star in Britain, if you know where to look. But so what?

The American Weekly Standard and I have followed each other on Twitter for years. It is quite aware of me and of my various activities, even if I doubt that it gives them much thought.

So it will not sue.

As much as anything else, it knows that a British jury would take an almost indecent delight in telling an American interest to jump off a cliff for trying to claim that it owned Britain like that.

Jurors are ordinary people rather than deracinated Establishment politicians and hacks.
