Reductio ad absurda

Serial Greenwald(s) sycophant Mona, writing at Jim Henley’s Unqualified Offerings, accuses me of dishonestly representing her comments in the conclusion to my post yesterday on the Libby trial: All: We’ve had a little PW invasion because Jeff linked here and quoted one of my comments, quite dishonestly leaving out ellipses to even suggest the existence of text explaining why I specifically will not engage him and people from his site,

Unless You’re a Politician (or The HuffPo or AP) [Dan Collins]

You Can’t Travel Back in Time, Scientists Say Opening wormhole requires more energy investment than getting laid in high school. UPDATE: Or Germany Legless panda needs a hand to improve sex life No comment. Oops! Huge Distant Galaxy Actually Small and Close “Little.  Far away.  Little.  Far away.” “I’m still not getting it, Ted.” Don’t skip The View.

The Almostness of Unprecedentitude [Dan Collins]

Schumer called it “almost unheard of” for a federal prosecutor with favorable reviews to be fired after a top presidential adviser like Rove received complaints about his performance. “The more we learn, the more it seems that people at high levels in the White House have been involved in the U.S. attorney purge,” Schumer said Monday. An inconvenient precedent: Robert Bork in 1998 Upon taking office, in an unexplained departure

Khartoum Capers [Dan Collins]

The UN human rights council is less than a year old. It was created to replace the widely discredited human rights commission and action on Darfur is regarded as a key test of the council’s credibility. Up to now the council has censured only one country – Israel – for its actions in Lebanon and Gaza, prompting critics to say the new body is just as politicised and ineffective as

Mona’s Litany Against Dialog [BRD]

I must not debate. Debate is the mind-killer. Debate is the free exchange of ideas that brings total obliteration. I will face debate. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn to blog about its path. Where the debate has gone there will be nothing. Only I (and an ostenation of Glenns) will remain***

More Pay-per-View Brainwashing [Dan Collins]

“The Happening” will not be the only big-budget studio film to test a new kind of villainy, in which the real victim is the environment, and, whatever the plot variations, the enemy is all of us. Beginning this summer and for months after, movies as diverse as the “The Simpsons Movie,” “Transformers,” a remake of “Creature From the Black Lagoon,” and James Cameron’s “Avatar” will take on environmental themes. The

a half-hearted attempt to reaffirm my conservative bona fides, 12

Sure, Rudy Giuliani is a decent candidate.  But let’s face it:  he’s friendly with the gays, and—try as he might, he’s simply no Newt Gingrich —Well, except for the whole cheating on his wife thing, maybe.  Still, where’s the gray hair of conservative experience? 

More on the Libby debacle (UPDATED)

Dan has been quite adamant that we should not allow the upcoming Waxman-Plame show hearing to turn into yet a further reification of the bogus victim narrative Plame, the Reid Democrats, and professional liar Joseph Wilson have been peddling for the last several years—a narrative they have been trying to bolster by finessing the outcome of the Libby trial not as an example of an appalling procedural conviction but as

Perfect Day for a Platypus-man Fish

Comedian Richard Jeni dies from a gunshot wound to the face.  Suicide seems likely, though it’s always possible, I suppose, that OJ was over for a visit and didn’t like the dip.  Jeni was 49.

Play Misty Formy [Dan Collins]

We’ve all been amused by the contortions of HH and others posting here to prove that where there’s smoke, there must be fire, unless the smoke billows out of the ass of an administration critic.  As I pointed out here, Ms. Plame will be singing for Henry Waxman and his committee of wax figures in the House on Friday, before jetting off to a well-deserved retirement and movie deal in
