- You think this is big, wait until you see what Ashton Kucher is doing with cold fusion.
- Isn't this the equivalent of a phantom limb at this point? Possibly the discomfort comes from shame. Nah, couldn't be.
- So now that the Washington Post has defended its immense institutional integrity, perhaps there is another Bush speech writer/torture apologist that they can hire. Because really, it's far worse to wish that the eggman would be consumed in an auto auto de fe than be a vigorous and open defender of war crimes. (Sometimes I hate this place.)
- I would like to do a quick thought experiment regarding how many bones in uber-douchebag Jeffrey Goldberg's face I could break with my bare hands before rendering him unconscious.
- Speaking of which, whoever leaked Dave Weigel's emails from the Journolist should be exposed and shunned.
- I have only met Weigel once -- I had dinner with him and Rick Perlstein a few months ago and my strong impression was of a guy who was grappling politically -- I sometimes use the word "unformed" derisively, but I think it fit Weigel in a positive way. I think he was searching and part of what seemed to be prompting that search was watching the utter madness of what he was covering. The arm chair psychologist in me thinks he was genuinely shaken by the tea partiers.
- In the end I think Weigel's future is brighter than the Post's -- watching those assholes crash and burn is going to be a pleasure.
- Time to walk Stanley and have another drink.
