…And in that regard, people like Michelle Malkin, John Hinderaker, Jonah Goldberg and Hugh Hewitt are not conservatives. They are authoritarian cultists. Their allegiance is not to any principles of government but to strong authority through a single leader…
My request to you guys is that you ignore this for now. It would make my life easier if we can confine the story. Then, once Jerome can speak and defend himself, then I’ll go on the offensive (which is when I would file any lawsuits) and anyone can pile on. If any of us blog on this right now, we fuel the story. Let’s starve it of oxygen. And without the “he said, she said” element to the story, you know political journalists are paralyzed into inaction.
Thanks, markos

The beautiful part of this is that it’s so spontaneous.
The VRWC and the UCNM didn’t make this happen. Karl Rove didn’t have to lift a finger. The neocons (Joooooooooooos) weren’t even aware of it. The left did it to themselves.
Both Charles Johnson (of LGF) and Jeff had the same reaction – get some popcorn and watch the fur fly.
If this clock has a pendulum, it must be banging up against one side of the cabinet. It wouldn’t hurt to have it toc occasionally. Give it two aspirin and call me in the morning.
“Bored…Bored. Bored. Bored. I’ve only been here two months, and I’m already bored. No unnecessary sedation, no electro-shock therapy, not even any elevator music. This place has become confining somehow. I feel… restrained.”
You think this is a joke, but one is reminded of the story – I can’t verify this, but I read it somewhere 10-15 years ago – that around 1930 or so the USSR set its clocks forward an hour for Daylight Savings Time, the government official in charge of the matter forgot to set them back that fall, and rather than admit error the Soviets stayed one hour ahead for 60-odd years.
What time is it? It’s whatever time I tell you it is. Now, enough with the questions.
Only Jeff Goldstein could make a run on gag with a f*&king ticking clock funny.
I stand in awe and a tear in my eye from laughing.
“Why is always tic?”
“Kos.”
All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.
Stay tuned…it’s a-comin’ to the side of a barn near you.
Is it just me, or is this getting old?
Jus you.

And have yourself a merry little Kosmas, now.
– Is Moulitsas developing a tic now?
– Is Moulitsas developing a noticable tic?
Tap, tap, tic….oops….Is this thing working….
Oh, that’s what the Dark Master wants you to think.
Yes, we are doing “tic”. Now get back to ticking!

It’s ticking and not tocking because the pendulum is swinging too far to the left. We really need to correct that.
If Jeff owns it, you can bet it swings both ways…..It’s just that a Lefty clock only has one note….
“Sorry to interrupt, but has anyone seen a gingham dog? He was right here just a minute ago. Funny, now the calico cat is missing.
Clock, there is something odd go-
OHMYGOD! Look at your hands! Is that…bombast?”

Kosmas – I like that. Sort of our equivalent of their Fitzmas.
