Goodnight, Mrs. Succotash, wherever you are...

Moral turniptude???

It's the rutabaga of all evil.

-- Paul Rosenberg

From one Wandering Jew to another, thank you for the deep and satisfying groan.

Better question

Instead of investigating where Edwards gets his hair cut, I think it would be more helpful if the MSM would look into where Bush gets his brain washed.

Project much?

Your fears are poisonous.

-- tiberius

Your mental illness is palpable.

The People v. Shooter

At some point willful ignorance becomes negligence.

-- shooter242

Since you cross that line on a regular basis, does that mean we can sue you?

Streaming video tip

I was unable to access the C-SPAN video feed using Glenn's link as posted until I added "www" to the URL: http://www.c-span.org/watch/cs_cspan3_wm.asp?Cat=TV&Code=CS3

Hope this helps others who are trying to watch/listen. FYI, I'm using Safari on a Mac.

Glenn:

I'm having trouble with the C-SPAN connection - are you, or is anyone? Does anyone know of an alternative site?

-- GlennGreenwald

You mean it was working and it stopped, or began "stuttering?" It's still playing smoothly on my computer. If there's an alternative source/site I'm not aware of it.

A heady topic

With all the burning controversy over the cost of John Edwards' haircuts, why has no one calculated what surely must be the extraordinary expense of flying Gonzales to North Korea to visit Kim Jong Il's stylist?

Shooter is right...

How could Gonzales be expected to remember events that happened such a long, long time ago? It's not as if he had any advance notice of this hearing, or had time or help to prepare for it. It's all a sinister Democrat conspiracy to kill more babies and surrender our God-given handguns to the Ottoman Empire.

It becomes clearer by the minute that the only reason this feckless, empty human pinata has survived this long is because he knows where all of Bush's bodies are buried.

You give new meaning and relevance to the phrase "self-inflicted wounds."

C-SPAN rebroadcast

C-SPAN announcer says entire hearing will be broadcast tonight (no time mentioned) and Sunday morning at 10:30 (Eastern, I assume.)

The gang's all here

our streets free from gang violence

Notice how they had to modify "violence" to make it specific to gangs. Because just a couple of days after Virginia Tech, they can't exactly claim to be keeping us safe from, say, a psychotic kid with easy access to semi-automatic hand guns.

And shooter242, that was a classic -- perhaps the ultimate "but...but...but...Clinton...!" My God, you have no shame! You're scraping the lint from the bottom of your bag of tricks.

For a limited time only, get 30% off!

Question is, are the 30-some percent of Americans who still think positively of Bush so far-gone and petulantly inflexible themselves that they will never abandon support for him or his party?

-- DCLaw1

DCLaw1, meet shooter242. He'd stand by the Bushies while they robbed his house, killed his wife, ate his children and raped his pets, because 9/11 changed everything -- and besides, Clinton...

Charlie the K

Krauthammer did raise a valid point

-- Ironclad

The Wheelchair Warrior couldn't raise a valid point with a forklift. I've always suspected that when he describes himself as a "psychiatrist" it's really just a misspelling of "psychopath." I was nauseated by his OpEd before I read here about his vile utterances on Fox; now my nausea has escalated to projectile vomiting.

Physically, he is disabled. Emotionally and intellectually, he's truly a cripple.

Jack attack

The sun had set and rose twice before CK was on Fox talking about it

--Jack

But the sun never sets on the neocon empire!

Aside to DCLaw1: Here's another of those immovable 30-percenters you couldn't believe existed. They don't just drink the Kool-Aid, they bathe in it, paint their homes with it, and mainline it into their veins. That's why I've started referring to the Bushies as the Jonestown Administration.

Fox News, via Kurtz

According to Howie (Mr. Sheri Annis) Kurtz, Fox News Senior Vice President John Moody writes, "We see no reason to continue assaulting the public with these disturbing and demented images." I guess that means he's finally cancelling O'Reilly, Hannity, Gibson, et al, right? RIGHT?!?!?!

The expert!

boring story about another pseudo scandal. This one has no traction.

-- mattsanchez

Yes, folks -- it takes a gay porn star/prostitute to identify a pseudo-scandal! His mother must be so proud of him! (Matt, maybe it has "no traction" because of all the KY you lubed it with.)

Friday, April 20, 2007 09:57 AM

Have you been in a coma for the last few years?

I noticed the same thing Krauthammer noted, that Cho clearly appropriated the imagery of the jihadi nuts who crank out snuff films and post them to the internet. ... I don't know the mental state of the jihadis who video tape themselseves as they slit people's throats then post the footage online.

--Anonymous

Ever heard of a prison called Abu Ghraib? Ever seen or heard about the photos of American troops abusing, humiliating, and torturing prisoners there -- photos those proud, smiling, fun-loving Americans took themselves?

Friday, April 20, 2007 10:14 AM

Jack

Who would have guessed that the absorbent pad that protects the seat of Dr. Krauthammer's wheelchair had a name?

Friday, April 20, 2007 12:04 PM

re: Casting Call

And W is obviously Slim Pickens. Yeeeeeee-haw!

Separated at birth?

With each post, Jack sounds more and more like Cho Seung Hui.

Careful, Jack -- the mental health authorities are bound to be hypervigilant for a while; this might be a good time to lay low and be very conscientious about taking your meds.

Friday, April 20, 2007 01:25 PM

Compare and contrast

Charlie the K goes on TV to link the VaTech shooter to "Islamofascists" just before denouncing Barack Obama for politicizing the tragedy.

Bush blames Democrats' insistance on a non-binding timeline for withdrawal from Iraq for potentially extending troops' tours of duty just before SecDef announces troops' tours of duty will be extended regardless.

Looks like a seamless fabric of hypocrisy to me.

Discuss amongst yourselves, or sit back, relax and watch Jack's head explode.

Republicans and the prostitutes who love them (for an hourly rate)

Don't you have some sex for pay to go attend to? Nice blog by the way.

-- arthurlee66

Matt Sanchez, Jeff Gannon, Mary Carey....

Say what you will about Clinton; at least he didn't have to pay for sex!
