Now, heartless Republicans have their sights set on the mimes and accordionists of the world:In this case I'd have to say that it's a good thing that Stiles knows so little that he falls back on the easy mime joke.A Republican lawmaker on Wednesday grilled the chairman of the National Endowment of the Arts over grants to San Francisco mimes and an international accordion festival.
Psst! Saw the Mime Troupe once at Children's Fairyland where they TURNED ALL THE KIDS GAY.

The San Francisco Mime Troupe are not mimes as such; they're a lefty comedy ensemble that do free shows with a satirical political bent. You'd think the Republicans would attack them for that alone, but I guess it's easier to go for the mime-hate spin.

My sprite died last night.
