Kathy Shaidle: Richard “The Boy Named Sue” Warman has finally filed his statement of claim. Canada’s busiest litigant, serial “human rights” complainant and — the guy Mark Steyn has called “Canada’s most sensitive man” — Richard Warman is now suing his most vocal critics — including me. The suit names: • Ezra Levant (famous for his stirring YouTube video of his confrontation with the Canadian Human Rights tribunal after he

Gleen(s) Torture Memo Revealed [Dan Collins]
Advance publicity for Something Wicker This Way Comes Shocking truth about Gleen(s) exposed! Slartibartfast says: “My one-sentence book review: one of the greatest strawman massacres of all time.” Bill M: “[T]he most vigorous attack on straw since the Big Bad Wolf. ” Not a photoshop: straw man crucified by Gleen(s) and his Gluppet Army
Andrew Sullivan: Shocka! [Dan Collins]
Well, go on. Stop being such a lesbian about it: Amazingly, Protein Wisdom’s Karl gives a fair account of Obama’s evolution as a Christian, and presents the mixed motives that Obama obviously felt when converting. I guess Andrew’s mind might be completely blown by how liberal many of our attitudes are toward civil unions and “gay marriage.” Oh, and the Negro Question. ;-P
Dems 2008: Hillary Clinton's rancid, asexual cream puffs [Karl]
Oddly enough, not a recipe (that I’ll leave to Jeff G, if he is so moved), but how Camille Paglia and one of her Salon readers view Hillary Clinton’s campaign staff: I would like to get your feedback on the subject of those who end up in Hillary’s orbit. Can you conceive of a strong, leader-type male ever working under her? An alpha, if you will. And if the answer

Dems 2008: Why did Obama join the Wright church, revisited [Karl]
I just happened to have caught Rush Limbaugh flogging The Wall Street Journal piece by Lanny Davis on Barack Obama’s response to the sermons and writings of his pastor, Rev. Jeremiah Wright of Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago, as well as Ryan Lizza’s March 19, 2007 TNR profile of Barack Obama, recently revived by Infidels are Cool for the “Was the Rev. Wright a former Muslim and black nationalist?”
PW Smacks Gleen(s) [Dan Collins]
Being a follow-up to Karl’s excellent post from earlier today, involving the other PW. It’s an outrage, he tells ya! Temerity! As if!! Glenn Greenwald, who established himself as one of the leading leftie bloggers in the blink of an eye, is building a body of substantial published work almost as quickly. Crown is about to publish his new book, Great American Hypocrites: Toppling the Big Myths of Republican Politics, and
Dems 2008: Obama's non-mythical problem with whites [Karl]
Yes, the fact that Obama campaign event coordinators at Carnegie Mellon University were demanding, “Get me more white people, we need more white people†to sit behind Michelle Obama yesterday suggests that Barack Obama thinks he needs to court the white vote in Pennsylvania. This may surprise the Obama-supporting Jed Report, which correctly notes that some polling data suggests that Hillary Clinton has a bigger problem with white voters than Obama. The flaw in the
Rick Ellensburg: The Silence of the Sock-Puppets [Karl]
Rick Ellensburg is quite upset that Megan McArdle and Dan Drezner supposedly defended the establishment media in response to another recent Ellensburg screed, which complained that the media was more interested in covering stories like Barack Obama’s bad bowling score or his relationship with Rev. Jeremiah Wright than the declassification of the 2003 “torture memo” drafted by John Yoo, then a deputy in the DOJ’s Office of Legal Counsel. In reality, Drezner and McArdle did not
