Sadly, No!

G for Glendetta– working youself up into a hilarious spasm of moral outrage because some wise-ass called you a “cracker.”

(Thanks to Roy for the inspiration.)

[Gavin adds:]

Opinion Journal steps up to the plate in the loony challenge:

The lesson of the Moussaoui trial is that the regular criminal justice system isn’t up to the job of trying most terrorists.

Because life in prison without the possibility of parole, with the death penalty option having been lost on account of a prosecutorial error, undoubtedly means the “regular” criminal justice system is a joke.

The criminal prosecution was a missed opportunity to show the world how trial by military tribunal would work.

And cancelling the 2004 Super Bowl would have been a missed opportunity to see Janet Jackson’s nipple. Shame really.

Meanwhile, as the Administration decides whether to proceed with the death-penalty trial against Moussaoui, there’s a certain moral irony in a confessed terrorist being saved by the very legal system that he spent three years railing against.

Not to mention the moral irony in finding anything other than killing someone the equivalent of salvation. We’re sure Moussaoui will enjoy himself tremendously in prison. Good times.

So here’s why Michelle Malkin and all those guys are so stirred up over the alleged new Iraq documents.

This press conference was at 1:30 this afternoon (Thursday, EST), but Malkin and Powerline both had the sirens going hours ahead of time, whether through newly revealed psychic ability or other means. Whatever the case, someone in power is finally paying them some attention, and like the bad Americans they are, they’re jumping into the harness and straining at the carrot.

There’ve been a number of layers to this story, none obviously worth writing about (i.e. funny in a way that works with pictures of talking cats or Charles Johnson chased by UFOs, and so on), until today, when they all coalesced into a huge gob of wingnut-stupid. But it goes something like this — and I’ll lay it out in greater scope and with more links tomorrow, if you’re interested.

It’s Jim “Good News From Iraq” Robbins again.

Traitors lurk everywhere. But let’s just restore a wee little redacted passage of this Freeper translation of an officially unauthenticated Arabic document.

If someone has some free time, maybe they can abstract for J-Ro the difference in meaning between the ideas, ‘it states [something]’ and ‘it states that this guy we know said he heard from this other guy that [something].’

Wingnut Welfare — like sweet, sweet candy, but so bad for you.

In recent elections, Democrats have had trouble attracting the support of white men. Some have speculated that this is because white males get turned off by the left’s affinity for minority and identity politics. Others think that this is due to the left’s insufficiently hawkish stance in the war on terror.

Well, speaking as a white dude, I can tell you that that’s all a bunch of hooey. We white guys don’t really give a shit about foreign policy or medicare reform or race relations, or any of that crap- we just wanna look at scantily-clad chicks. And the reason that so many of us have been defecting to the Republicans is that, unlike the GOP, the Democrats have yet to develop their own army of hussies who dress in skimpy outfits and spew partisan bile over the airwaves and on the Internets. I mean, just look at the right-wing skanks that the GOP has at its disposal:

Hm. Bla, something-something, new Iraqi documents prove that there were WMD, wakka-wakka, Saddam had ties to Al-Qaeda, need translation, power of the right-blogosphere, honk, mew, bla.

This seems familiar. Where’d we hear this story before?

Zeerp! “Hello, Dum-Dum.”

OK, are you guys back yet? Good.

Please find enclosed Item #735-1011, “Giant Waffle Iron,” which I am returning because it is defective and dishonest and is bad and sucks, and I am very angry and covered in syrup, and my body is now shaped like a waffle.

Please send Item #013-9520, “Rocket-Powered Shopping Cart.”

I’ll get that Roadrunner this time.

Yours,
John Hinderaker

So Hinderaker is quoting someone, right? Wrong. The word “quote” in “quotes” is Hinderaker’s. The blatant dishonesty bla bla something zoom oink unhinged fracka-fracka and this proves it, no backsies.

Here is the basis for it:

This week Republican Senator Wayne Allard of Colorado, in an interview with Fox News radio, said in response to Feingold’s action that he has “time and time again [sided] with the terrorists”.

Send a message to Senator Allard: shame on him for questioning the patriotism of another Senator. Sign this petition and it will be delivered to Allard:

It looks as though the Democrats are trying to deflect attention from their own embarrassment over Feingold’s blunder by changing the subject to purported attacks on Feingold’s patriotism. I wonder, though, what Allard actually said. Somehow, it makes me suspicious when Howard Dean quotes a fragment of a sentence, in which he himself supplied the verb. I haven’t been able to track down a transcript of Allard’s interview, or even a longer quote. Does anyone out there know what Allard said?

Sigh. Hey, Gazoogle… Oh Great Gazoogle…

Zeerp! “Hello, Dum-dum.”

Well, luckily this trick doesn’t always work.

“It wasn’t me, it was Lamb!”
“No, she’s Lamb!”
“Okay, I’m Lamb, but it wasn’t me, it was Lynx.”
