I bet you could chart the usage of the "No Country" construction and the "There Will Be" construction and get some interesting pre- and post-Oscar numbers. But I do have to tip my hat to "No Country for Mark Penn." If something's worth doing, it's worth doing right.

As clever as No Country for Mark Penn is", "No Country for Lumpy thighs" is in inverse proportion in cleverness. WTF? and ""There will be blood if Kenya stays no country for Luo men" is just trying too damned hard.

No Tolerance for No Country Survey says: Lame Another over-used word I've noticed a lot lately, most recently in a CJ police blotter, is "decidedly" I forget the context, but it was decidedly overkill
