Age Against The Machine

Great line by our friend Walter Shapiro in Salon (via Instapundit):

At 61, Bill Clinton — even though he is a decade younger than John McCain — makes more self-deprecating comments about age than anyone this side of Phyllis Diller.

Phyllis Diller — much funnier than the punchline we would have gone for, George Burns. Then again, we think it’s hilarious when Arlen Specter says, “I looked at my birth certificate recently and I decided not to let a little thing like that bother me because it happened so long ago.’”

There’s Diller. And then there’s duller.

UPDATE: What would Phyllis Diller look like if she got a face lift to look younger?
