(sorry Al Franken…well, not sorry, you’re a big fat idiot too), and Rachel Lucas has opened up a big can of rant-flavored whoopass on Comrade Moore.

From time to time I highlight the stupidity of the people who work at the Indianapolis Star. Television writer Marc Allan (who used to be the rock concert critic, and wasn’t very good at that, either) has an article in the Star today talking about Sean Hannity’s appearance here tomorrow. The headline?
“Right-wing pundit Hannity is eager to meet his public.”
I wonder if he would have called Alan Colmes “Left-wing pundit Colmes” if Alan was going to be here instead? (That question was rhetorical for Republicans.)
No, no left-wing bias at the venerable Star at all. Move along, there’s nothing to see here.
(FYI I understand that Allan probably didn’t write the headline. But it points up that someone at the Star is contributing to the leftward lean the Star has been taking ever since the Pulliams sold out to Gannett.)

…Fox has switched from being “All Sniper All The Time” to “All Wellstone All The Time.”
Good God, people. A sense of proportion please.

Sen. Paul Wellstone, D-MN, was on a plane that crashed in northern Minnesota within the past hour. All 8 aboard the small prop plane died.

“Fly the friendly skies” indeed…

Den Beste has some interesting musings (much more interesting than anything on Fox News at the moment) on the possibility of Iraqi debt repudiation following regime change, and why Russia, France, and likely Germany are probably going to bear the brunt of it.

“All Sniper All The Time” doesn’t seem to be letting up any.

Some Congresscritter from Georgia thinks it would be a good idea to strip US citizenship from turncoats like John Walker Lindh.
I agree. But I think it should be stripped from them by lethal injection, or gas chamber, or electrocution, or hanging, or being shot in the back of the head with a large-calibre pistol. Not by some obscure law that will probably be honored more in the breach than in the observance (like the Logan Act).
The penalty for betraying your fellow citizens should be DEATH. What part of this do our representatives, senators, Presidents, and judges not understand?

Seriously busy at work. Tonight is also a mess. Probably no major bloggage till tomorrow (I barely even have time to read my daily list…).

…it’s interesting to hear that he’s probably not al-Qaeda. This boy sounds like a home-grown moron, even if he’s not the disaffected white trash I figured he probably was, and even if he is a Muslim.
