The L.A. Times has a piece in the Style section about Harriet Miers’s effusive praise for the President, titled The timeless art of flattery. She is compared to Eddie Haskell:
Move over Eddie Haskell. Harriet E. Miers could teach you a thing or two about sucking up.
Heh.
Pronounced "Patter-EE-koh"

Eddie Haskell would have been a better nominee. He sucks up face-to-face, but he kicks butt when the doors are closed.

eddie haskell (8fd1a1) — 10/21/2005 @ 9:48 amRead the piece and was reminded that Patterico lives in LA so now I am wondering whether he is just sucking up to me.
Hmmmm.
