McCain Girls and Hillary Girl
Maybe the McCain girls will be swayed by this dramatic video of Hillary under fire in Tuzla:
Too much Obama-bashing at Hot Air?
Now blogging at Hot Air, Ed Morrissey picks up on Chris Wallace calling out his Fox News colleagues for their excessive Obama-bashing.
Ed concurs. “Yes, yes … this was over the top .. too much Obama-bashing.”
I counted 22 Obama-bashing posts in the last 72 hours at Hot Air, which is their privilege. (A shout-out to my […]
Intermittent Blogging
As my regular readers know, I periodically blog ordinary, high-profile news, or then go off on obsessive tears on obscure subjects of little interest, and then have not much to say about anything for a while. That’s where I am now.
So in lieu of reading two dozen inconsequential blog posts of mine for the past […]
Get over it kid!
I am actually old enough to remember a time when any careless slip a person made didn’t immediately get circulated globally. Yeah, that era pretty much sucked.

Hope Will Not Be Televised: Obama YouTube vs. Clinton Clash
While cable news shows gorge on campaign sparring, Obama’s uplifting speech is absolutely dominating YouTube. The 34-minute address from Ebenezer Baptist Church is currently the fourth most viewed video in the world on YouTube, trailing two Britney Spears clips. Not only is that unusual traffic for […]

Techography - Politburo Dictation
He finds the juxtaposition of Ann Coulter, Pit Bill (Clinton), Michelle Obama, and John Kerry, by a conservative who claims to have been mugged by reality, … well .. amusing.
“You think I am a clown, here to amuse you?” - Joe Pesci.
Sully Smackdown
One of his readers emails:
I see you quote with approval Maureen Dowd’s column on Clinton’s tears. Every day you tell us how much we need Obama’s reasonable, fresh, high-minded vision of unity, and every day you pour gas on the fire by elaborating, just like Dowd, all of your personal resentments about Clinton and her […]
Happy New Year, John Cole!
Strong As An Ox And Nearly As Smart: The New Republic Lost in the Fog of a ‘Baghdad Diarist’
How could that be possible? A dog does not get severed by a 21-inch tread attached to a 25-ton vehicle, it gets crushed.
Buddy demonstrates how much of a dog - Buddy is much larger than a typical […]

Jumping Jacks Splash
Have you seen the Youtube video, supposedly showing Iraqi army recruits ludicrously doing jumping jacks? It’s made quite a splash, with 38 blogs covering it.
A sample of these unquestioning blog reactions:
Daily Kos: Those are Iraqi Army conscripts, not a hilarious Saturday Night Live skit. I weep for Iraq’s future…
Andrew Sullivan: Somehow, this seems to be […]

Having scored some impressive points on email-tone-gate, the Left will now move on to another really momentous event:
Hunt is over for Cheney
The Daily News photographer who took the picture of the flag said he saw it inside a garage attached to one of the buildings on the Clove Valley club grounds.
“The garage was open, […]
A question for John Cole
No blogger has pointed out more often than my friend John Cole, that a soldier running over a dog with an armored vehicle does not constitute a threat to truth, justice and the American way.
But now, I see, if a soldier sends Glenn Greenwald a rude email, then that is very, very serious:
