F#&% ESPN [Dan Collins]

Apparently, Olbermann wasn’t out of place in this particular corporate culture.If someone’s got a history of all the kinds of remarks chid by ESPN broadcasters, I’d love to see it.  I’m not for executing her for shit she said when she was drunk, but I do want to see her publicly humiliated and I’d love to hear her explain herself. And I’d like to hear a little bit of consideration of

BREAKING ELECTION 2008 NEWS: MITT ROMNEY IS RICH!

TIME magazine’s ex-Wonkette, Ana Marie Cox, digs deep for a juicy scoop on Mitt Romney’s secret weapon in the Florida primary — he’s got money: Throughout the primary season, Romney has been accused of trying — though often failing — to buy elections. But Florida is the first state money really can buy. “Romney is the only one [of the four major candidates] who has the money on hand to go

Election 2008: Turn and face the strange [Karl]

In case you missed it, Hugh Atkin comments on Election 2008 by setting presidential debate video to David Bowie’s classic, “Changes.”  WTWT, as it gets better as it goes along, with a nice jab at the end.

Does this look like a guy who would electrocute his wife during “kinky sex?”  I didn’t think so.  I’m sure it was her fault.  I’ll bet she was asking for it.  No, really, I’ll bet she was asking for it.  Ok, go ahead, let the punning begin.

The Coveted CraigC Endorsement

There are certain movies that I will always watch if I come across them while surfing, no matter how far along they are in the plot.  Boogie Nights is one of those movies.  It’s a nearly perfect little gem that also happens to have one of the greatest film sequences ever.  More on that in a moment.  It’s about the porn industry in the 70’s and 80’s, with tour-de-force performances

Dems 2008: Clinton backs seating MI, FL delegates, heads explode [Karl]

There is a great disturbance in the Leftosphere after Ezra Klein flagged a statement from the Clinton campaign that Sen. Hillary Clinton will ask her Democratic convention delegates to support seating the delegations from Florida and Michigan. Josh Marshall seems thisclose to a declaration that this aggression will not stand: The Clinton camp is just pushing to seat these delegates now because the contingencies of the moment mean that the

Over the Top [Dan Collins]

Usually, we sympathize with those who note that publicly employed wrongdoers of no determinable (from the press) political party are Dems.  Taranto goes too far, though: We thought about filing this Associated Press headline under “Bottom Stories of the Day”: “Detroit Mayor Sends Steamy Text Messages.” But it turns out this is a public scandal: Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick bristled in the witness chair last year when asked whether he had an

Throw Up a Little [Dan Collins]

Bill Clinton: John McCain and Hillary are ‘very close’ For happy feet: You’re a nice lady, Peggy, and pretty hot for your age.  Dig the cheekbones.  Still, get over it.  Even though Malchow likes you, you’ve gotten kind of . . . what’s the word I’m looking for? . . . infuckingsufferable.
