…the latest installment of Pajamas Media’s “Blog Week in Review” with Austin Bay is now available. The guests were neo-neocon and yours truly—discussing a number of issues, from “identitarianism” to the Plame case to Cpl Sanchez and his GAY PORN COCK OF NON-CHICKENHAWKISH LIES.
For those of you not interested, well, there’s always the NCAA Tournament.
Personally, I’ve been out all day with the wife and kid and have yet to crack open my first St Patty’s Day Guinness, a deficiency I hope to rectify in just one—
Heh. There’s a Killian’s in my office fridge for just such an emergency.
Nothing against Guinness, mind you. I don’t like corned beef and cabbage either.
It’s Frankenstein…
Interesting chat.
I believe the actual claim is that the people who worked with Plame in the past were endangered by the leaking of her identity, not that Plame herself was endangered by the leak.
alphie,
To sustain a civil suit, she will have to demonstrate that she herself suffered harm.
I was talking about the straw man floated on the chat show Jeff was on, Dan.
Im about 3 Guiness pints into it. I started with the Glen Livet to kill the bottle and just had a tasty Balvenie 12 year doublewood; sherry and oak. mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm…
Erein go Braghless!
Purple Fingerz, Bitchez!
The Iraq War is going great. Trust me.
Hey, Trollio,
Go check out this post, from a leftie without BDS, at marxist.org.uk.
No Guiness for blood! hic!
Just finished my Guiness. I like Guiness better than most beers, but I just really don’t like beer. But it’s St. Pat’s and…the proprieties at all times.
Great stuff, Jeff. You were articulate, gathered all of the question, responded fully. Most important thing: you listened well.
Austin’s a good interviewer.
Check this out, though:

Hi, Angie. Happy St. Pat’s. Please don’t explain my hypocrisies to me until tomorrow.
alphie, ever hear of Aldrich Ames?
Aah, fuhgeddaboudit.
Ah, Deleuze. Knew I heard the term somewhere. The definition, though, fits. Taking one’s idea of being from one’s perceived identity. It’s just a matter of drawing out those implications, and extending it out beyond the purview of psychoanalytic theory.
On seventh Guinness:
“What he said.”
The verbal Xerox. I’ll ponder it tomorrow.
You might be interested in this, Jeff.
McCain has apparently got some competition for Maverickness. Which is better than competition for pandering-to-nutrootsness.
I looked at the Volvo cars while I listened to this. I wish they would make a smaller model – they just have the one coupe.
The Plame thing seems really different in that there’s been really nothing by way of an orchestrated response from the administration. Different from parallel situations in the Clinton years anyway.
Do they have a covertible in which Valerie might look hot, wearing a niqab?
It’s Valerie that makes the car look hot, Dan. Her mystique is overwhelming and transformative.
Unfortunately, that mystique doesn’t seem to have had the same effect on her husband.
I still prefer the Italian chick from the Mirage commercials.
From Dan’s Deleuzey-linky:
The nine fine Irish brews I’ve just had prevent me from saying anything interesting and/or crazy about that, so I’d just like to point and chuckle for a second.
…
All right.
Out of Guiness and too damned lazy to hike on down to the store, so I had an Irish Screwdriver.
[place standard Screwdriver next to baked potato and shout Erin go Braugh before slinging it down]
