Can't help but feel Nemstov delivered a eulogy for the Opposition today. #russia - If I've said once, I've said it a thousand times: Ariel Cohen belongs at Heritage. In all ways.
- At DSOB 106 for Boris Nemstov. Haven't seen him since Nizhni Novgorod Mayor and IFC small scale privatization (Saratov too).

Beyond Bush: Holding His Enablers To Account
Today’s Warlord press conference was a bizarre affair. If you saw it surely you, too, have your own take. How convenient then that his enablers in the media escape scrutiny yet again and pose as judges and jury on this once mighty socio-political edifice. Who cheer led the war in Iraq? Not just with the [...]

True. Some do it better than others. Compare the Fox machine with the largely unwatchable MSNBC stuff. A tribute to Ailes’ malign insight about a television network as Ur political entity.
Perhaps we show our age, but it is hard to take seriously a bunch of kids on MSNBC lecturing about their latest Teh Google searches on macro-economic inflation and deflation approaches.
Or Maddow’s constant assumption that because something is new to her it is de facto new to her audience. It’s narcissism (in the technical form, not a lifestyle dog whistle – we’re libertarian on that score among consenting adults) purified with pedanticism.
Oh well. That’s what On Demand is for — as MSNBC’s parent would say.

If the media declares that Perry has the best stump speech, Perry would have the best stump speech even if he never delivered one. On certain matters—and barring some very concrete evidence to the contrary stump speeches fall in the class—the media does more or less determine our political reality.
So many reporters and pundits yammering this weekend that Perry has the best stump speech without hearing it.
Perry, POTA, POTUS.
Nice turns of phrase. No argument re hapless Democrats. In 2011 it’s all rather late anyway as he notes.
This might be of interest here. Anyway, John Emerson’s always astute: http://trollblog.wordpress.com/2011/08/12/why-does-anyone-read-the-wall-street-journal-editorial-page/#comments
LOL.
If you’ve come here looking for some ephemeral bleats about a meaningless straw poll, this blog is not for you. Trust me.
