Environmentalists Enjoy Disasterbating

On Hannity & Colmes tonight, Dr. Patrick Michaels of the Cato Institute implies that the environmentalists at CBS considered using stories about the Southern California fires as a means to advertise the series "Planet in Peril." Michaels referred to this action as "disaster baiting." At least I think that is what he said. For obvious reasons, I like the phrase.

Do you think Bush and Cheney every worked it like in "disasterbating" with Iraq?

Libro-Conservative Lovemaking

Here's the link. I suggest you read it for yourself before ....

Andrew Sullivan uses Glenn Greenwald to push his book. As has been intuited on many an ocassion beyond this blog, there is nothing as certain as "strange attractors'" ability to attempt to bind together that which seemingly could never, ever be tethered. But, apparently, such is now an endeavor.


Andrew is such the enigma. Not even the "pundidiot" (thanks nick) Chris Matthews can manifest such strange adherences. What is it that Greenwald serves up for endearing adoration?

-------------

"Sullivan was one of the very few conservatives who repudiated Bush and the Bush movement when Bush was still popular... The Conservative Soul highlights the true philosophical and psychological roots of the Bush movement - its first principles - and reveals just how rotted those fundamentalist roots are. "


-------------

Truth. Truth? It takes one to know one? One of the very few ...what...conservatives? Who realized the elected compassionate conservative Bush was....neither?

Wow. Thanks Greenwald. Thanks Andrew. Apparently liberal/progressive/loser/democrats (and the lonely Ron Paul paleo-) never really, really, really had an inkling of "the true philosophical and psychological roots of the Bush movement." NO! It took Andrew Sullivan to unearth, deconstruct, make known and manifest this "rotted" aspect of compassionate conservativism.

I just wonder about both Sullivan's and Greenwald's sympathy for the popular vote in 2000. Must have been an aberrant event?

Oh well. You do have to admire Andrew's and Glenn's ability to make money at this...ummm...post-ironic genre?

Yeee Hawwww!

We'd Be Better Off If We All Were Christians.

Ann Coulter appeared on Donny Deutsch's show the other night and said that. No surprise. But, Donny seemed...surprised?? He said something to the effect of "I'm Jewish." Really? She basically said he needed to convert.

Ann Coulter is an anti-Semite?

Listen!!!!!!!




Chris Matthews literally has been on TV for the past week--24/7--promoting his new book. Here's what he has had to say:

It's about listening!
It's about listening!
It's about listening!
It's about listening!
It's about listening!
It's about listening!
It's about listening!
It's about listening!

Ok. I'm going to die from the abundance of irony, which--ironically--I thought had died after 9-11.

But, this is the man who compared George W. Bush to Atticus Finch. help! arrrggggh.
