		<description><![CDATA[There may be trouble in the AOL/HuffPo relationship, a report by Keach Hagey at the Wall Street Journal suggests:
Arianna Huffington acknowledged Thursday that her portfolio at AOL Inc. is being scaled back to include only the Huffington Post, undoing a structure put in place when her website was acquired by AOL last year. &#8230;
The wider separation of the Huffington Post and the rest of AOL … has fueled questions about the Huffington Post’s long-term future at the company.
Ms. Huffington said Thursday that she had been approached by private-equity firms interested ...]]></description>

This is brilliant:
Billboards in Chicago paid for by The Heartland Institute point out that some of the world’s most notorious criminals say they “still believe in global warming” &#8212; and ask viewers if they do, too. . . .
The billboard series features Ted Kaczynski, the infamous Unabomber; Charles Manson, a mass murderer; and Fidel Castro, a tyrant. Other global warming alarmists who may appear on future billboards include Osama bin Laden and James J. Lee (who took hostages inside the headquarters of the Discovery Channel in 2010).

WASHINGTON, D.C.
Yesterday afternoon I got a phone call from one of Herman Cain&#8217;s aides, asking if I could attend a meeting at 5 p.m. Well, sure, of course, but what was the meeting about? It was explained to me, and I was subsequently informed that I would be the only reporter in the room, at Mr. Cain&#8217;s specific request.

When he isn&#8217;t blowing air-kisses at Huntsman, Scarborough is citing every possible media blurb about Huntsman as ratification of the former Utah governor&#8217;s make-believe campaign. Joe is to Jon what 11-year-old girls are to Justin Bieber, or what Chris Matthews is to Barack Obama. If Scarborough hasn&#8217;t yet announced his leg-tingles for Huntsman, it&#8217;s only ...]]></description>

The new ad, clearly aimed at social conservatives who are a key GOP constituency in the Hawkeye State, is timed to coincide with Santorum&#8217;s three-day &#8220;Faith, Family and Freedom&#8221; tour of Iowa, which began Sunday in Sioux City.

Asked by host Christianne Amanapour about Gingrich&#8217;s stand on &#8220;social values,&#8221; Santorum said: &#8220;I think Newt has consistently put those in, let&#8217;s say, the back of the bus.

For weeks, I&#8217;ve been mystified and irritated by the media&#8217;s love affair with Jon Huntsman, the former Utah governor who joined the Obama administration just about the time most conservatives were joining the Tea Party movement.
Why the hell is this guy &#8212; &#8220;Governor Asterisk,&#8221; an irrelevant distraction, a Charlie Crist clone who represents no actual GOP constituency &#8212; being included in the Republican debates and treated with fawning deference by the media?

Yesterday, I hit the road to Oskaloosa to cover the Herman Cain campaign, but much of focus leading up to Ames is going to be on the life-or-death struggle by Pawlenty to avoid a worse-than-expected straw-poll finish:

While watching TV news in my motel this morning, I saw a Michele Bachmann ad, aimed directly at getting her supporters out to next week&#8217;s Ames Straw Poll:

It&#8217;s a good ad: She slams Washington &#8220;politicians,&#8221; blames the bad economy on Obama, says, &#8220;Someone needs to say no,&#8221; and closes with an invitation to Ames.
Also &#8212; let&#8217;s admit it &#8212; she just looks great on camera, doesn&#8217;t she?

They&#8217;ve taken a huge gamble, producing this ambitious film under a tight deadline and on a tight budget.
During the CPAC blogger bash at FreedomWorks, they previewed four scenes from the movie. Clearly, they&#8217;re hoping to generate major buzz before the film&#8217;s theatrical release on April 15.
Yeah: Tax Day. Pretty clever.

Anger over a decision to pay Bristol Palin several thousand dollars in student fees to talk to Washington University students about abstinence led to a decision Thursday night to nix Palin&#8217;s appearance on a panel here next month.
Washington University&#8217;s Student Health Advisory Committee had extended an invitation to Palin, a spokeswoman to prevent teen pregnancy, to speak on abstinence as part of the university&#8217;s Student Sexual Responsibility Week. . . .

The most likely cause is Loughner’s daily cannabis-smoking habit. The link between this drug and serious mental illness grows clearer every day. Wickedly, the dope lobby still tries to deny this and seeks to legalise it.
Loughner has been, for much of his short life, a habitual smoker of this so-called ‘soft’ organic drug. This is not in doubt. Police records, the testimony of U.S. army recruiters who rejected him partly on these grounds, ...]]></description>

Alas, poor Marco! Florida’s Tea Party superstar has been stuck in a temporary office in the basement, behind the cafeteria, on a dead-dead corridor across the hall from the Senate stationery store!
The new senator himself wasn’t in — “spending some family time” after the swearing-in, his receptionist said. Rubio’s office is next door to the temporary office of newly-elected Sen. Dan Coats of Indiana. A staffer in Coats’ office explained to ...]]></description>

The Associated Press:
Robin Vos, a Racine Republican, is taking offense at a Democratic bumper sticker he claims shows a train slamming into Gov.-elect Scott Walker&#8217;s head in a bloody crash. He thinks Democrats should stop offering it.
The bumper sticker is available on the Wisconsin Democratic Party&#8217;s website. The sticker is emblazoned with the words &#8220;High Speed Fail.&#8221;
The Underground Conservative has the background:
It’s not enough that the Democrats in Wisconsin were kicked to the curb in November.

Danny K. Davis, a longtime United States representative, has dropped out of the race to become Chicago’s mayor, creating the situation that black leaders here had for months been clamoring for: a campaign that includes only one major African-American candidate.
Carol Moseley Braun, a former senator, became that candidate this weekend, as Mr. Davis announced his plans to step aside and to support Ms. Braun. The Rev. James T. Meeks, the pastor of a large South Side church, quit his campaign about a week ago.

Yesterday a commenter at my blog chastised me, saying my “gushing over Herman Cain is starting to get embarrassing.” One of the knocks on Cain&#8217;s candidacy is that he has never held public office and, therefore, is presumably un-electable.

Crist will get no more Republican money. Fundraising is crucial to politics, and there are no direct-mail lists of &#8220;raging moderates&#8221; who will donate to an independent Crist campaign. It was estimated in late April that Crist quit the GOP race with $6 million cash-on-hand. Based on his previous &#8220;burn rate,&#8221; he&#8217;s unlikely to have half that amount remaining ...]]></description>

Republican Tim Burns is in a neck-and-neck fight with Democrat Mark Critz, a Murtha aide who specializes in pork-barrel earmarks. Charlie Cook recently switched this race from “toss-up” to “lean Republican.” Burns has been endorsed by Sarah Palin and Newt Gingrich has called him &#8220;the next Scott Brown,&#8221; and Burns is featured in my latest column at The American Spectator:

The $75 billion HAMP program was created with a promise to bailout 3 to 4 million homeowners in foreclosure, paying lenders to modify troubled mortgages. Foreclosures reached 2.8 million in 2009 and are on track to exceed that total with over ...]]></description>

Crist, a formerly conservative politician who &#8220;grew in office&#8221; after becoming governor in 2007, went through a 50-point lead over conservative former Florida House Speaker Marco Rubio faster than Sherman went through Georgia.

[A]s it became clear internally that the Administration had suffered perhaps its most embarrassing failure in the area of national security, senior Obama White House aides, including chief of staff Rahm Emanuel, David Axelrod and new White House counsel Robert Bauer, ordered staff to begin researching similar breakdowns &#8212; if any &#8212; from the Bush Administration. &#8220;The idea was that we&#8217;d show that the Bush Administration had had far worse ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[My latest American Spectator column:
When Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab tried to detonate an explosive aboard Northwest Airlines Flight 253 on Christmas Day, liberals were quick to warn against the clear and present danger.
It wasn&#8217;t the threat of al Qaeda-trained bombers blowing up Detroit-bound planes that concerned them. Rather, liberals feared that Americans might blame the Obama administration for failing to protect them from terrorists or &#8212; perhaps even worse &#8212; demand action against the violent extremists who want to kill us all. . . .

Heck of a way for the mother of infant twins to celebrate the holidays, huh? But remember that this is a woman who had the questionable judgment to marry Charlie Sheen:

		<description><![CDATA[Devastating revelations about the bogus science of the climate-change fanatics inspired me Saturday to reflect on the Temple Cult of Scientism:
The High Priests perform their statistical rituals and the cultists genuflect reverently before their idol, Science.
Today&#8217;s latest news &#8212; that the original data which generated the global-warming thesis were long ago destroyed &#8212; prompted further reflections on Faith and Reason:
One reason that abortion is such a sacred right to some Baby Boomers is that they were deceived by the &#8220;Population Bomb&#8221; hoax of the 1960s and &#8217;70s, when neo-Malthusians warned ...]]></description>

Jules Crittenden observes that since resuming &#8220;normal&#8221; blogging, Andrew Sullivan&#8217;s Daily Dish &#8220;has racked up no fewer than 23 Palin posts.&#8221; Which is only &#8220;normal&#8221; in Sullyland, a destination on the far side of the looking glass, where caterpillars smoke hookahs, etc.
Certain that his lunacy is entirely rational, Andrew Sullivan declares Sarah Palin &#8220;completely off her rocker.&#8221; Of course, this explains why she&#8217;s got a huge bestseller and massive crowds at every stop on her smash-hit book tour, while Sully&#8217;s become a blogospheric laughingstock, his obstetric fixation ...]]></description>

One of the most hysterically laughable aspects of Sully&#8217;s recent blogging is how he engages in psychological projection, accusing others of his own most obvious faults, to wit:
I&#8217;ve heard it before from a source very close to her &#8211; a source who also told me that Palin was obsessed with this blog for much of the campaign.

FHA-insured loans have more than tripled from 530,000 in fiscal year 2007 to 1.7 million thus far in 2009. The Government National Mortgage Association, which securitizes FHA loans, has boosted its mortgage-related issuance to $287 billion from $85 billion. Yet during that same period, the FHA&#8217;s loan delinquency rate has climbed to 14.4% in Q2 from 12.6% two years earlier.
In other words, 1 in 7 FHA borrowers are behind on their payments, even as the federal mortgage-guarantee agency ...]]></description>

Today, of all days, Americans should lay aside partisanship and ideology to pay resepctful remembrance to a Democrat who did so much to shape the Kennedy family legacy. But while words fail to capture the true meaning of this moment, some say a picture is worth a thousand words . . .

		<description><![CDATA[The sad case of &#8220;Trig Truthers&#8221; &#8212; the wacko conspiracy theorists who insist that Gov. Sarah Palin did not give birth to her fifth son, Trig &#8212; would be a senseless tragedy if we did not learn the valuable lesson this episode teaches.
In reflecting on this situation earlier today, I observed:
What is most interesting about anti-Palin fanatics is how uninteresting they are. Insanity is interesting; stupidity is not. And never have such dull people gone so hopelessly mad.
That was prompted by a typical engagement with the Palin Derangement Syndrome crowd. ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Nothing is worse than a writer who takes the reader&#8217;s interest for granted. This mistake is particularly common in political writing: &#8220;I am a conservative, expressing a conservative viewpoint on an issue of interest to fellow conservatives. Therefore, why bother trying to make it interesting?&#8221;
Bland, boring writing &#8212; however sound the political principles or accurate the facts such writing may convey &#8212; is now a serious problem in the conservative movement.

Had Ms. Espinosa not been in the crowd, I wouldn&#8217;t have known about the protest. She posted a notice of the Tom&#8217;s Tavern rally on her blog and, using her cell phone, sent me photos of the protest that I posted on my blog. . ...]]></description>

Sarah Palin has used this heartrending diminutive prop with such careless abandon, that even people who once supported her are embarrassed at her apparent disregard for the well being of this baby.
Leaving behind all of the questions about Trig&#8217;s parentage, the question we must now ask ourselves is how well is he currently being cared for?

		<description><![CDATA[The notorious &#8220;Chicago Way&#8221; of political corruption seems to have arrived full-force in Washington, as both Michael Barone and John Kass observe in regard to the inspectors general who seem to be dropping like flies these days. Meanwhile, good-government activists are &#8220;dismayed&#8221; to discover that Barack Obama&#8217;s promises of &#8220;transparency&#8221; were just so much more campaign rhetoric.
What about all those elite journalists who celebrated Joseph Wilson as a whistleblower and portrayed his wife Valerie Plame as the innocent victim of political retaliation? They seem strangely indifferent to the fate of ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Nothing bothers me quite as much as a troll. It is one thing to argue about politics. It is something else &#8212; something evil &#8211; to hijack somebody&#8217;s bandwidth and use it dishonestly to attack them, their friends and everything they believe in.
Wednesday, I posted an essay at the Hot Air Green Room, which prompted &#8220;Lizza&#8221; to comment:

 Actual science involves the ascertaining and application of facts, with the knowledge that there are more facts in the universe than any person can ever possibly know. The pseudo-religion of Science, by contrast, involves the belief that &#8220;experts&#8221; already know all the important facts, and that much of what we normally call &#8220;common sense&#8221; is contradicted by the facts most recently discovered by these experts, who constitute the high priesthood ...]]></description>

&#8220;If you allow yourself to be slapped around like a punk, whose fault is it that you&#8217;re treated like a punk?&#8221;
Just some friendly family advice to conservatives tired of being disrespected by Republican &#8220;leaders&#8221; who try to curry favor with the liberal Moe Greens.
Matt Lewis is not Fredo, and he&#8217;s not going to be slapped around anymore.

The problem is that our situation is so unprecedented, even the most astute observers are somewhat mystified.
What provoked the &#8220;current weirdness&#8221; remark was something I wrote about the possible influence of hidden inflation in the financial markets:

Causes GOP Grassroots Rebellion
WASHINGTON, DC, May 21 &#8211; Conservative activists are sparking an online grassroots uprising in response to the National Republican Senatorial Committee&#8217;s decision to endorse Charlie Crist in the 2010 Florida Senate race 15 months before the GOP primary for the seat currently held by Republican Sen.

Fact: Dijon mustard comes from France.
Fact: From 1843-45, Karl Marx lived in France.
Fact: From 1940-44, Adolf Hitler ruled France.
Fact: From 1978-79, the Ayatollah Khomeini lived in France.

 I&#8217;m going to give all the women out there a piece of advice that your parents are probably too uncomfortable to give to you: do not let your boyfriend take naked pictures of you. You know why? Because even if you disregard the moral issues, if the two of you break up, you have a problem. . . .
I have probably had friends/acquaintances of mine show me naked pics of their ex-girlfriends at least a dozen times &#8212; and I don&#8217;t think that&#8217;s unusual. As a ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;Apparently, giving a woman a compliment on her good looks is inherently an insult now, no matter the context, at least if politics and the media are involved in any way. . . . It&#8217;s one thing to point out blatant sexism in its true form. It&#8217;s completely silly on the other hand to misconstrue obvious, harmless compliments as an insult in order to spark a fake verbal spar between two GOP leaders.&#8221;

Given the abundant evidence that Sims is either corrupt or incompetent (or possibly both), what does the senior Republican have to say to the nominee at his confirmation committee?

Impossible to live a thoughtful and productive life if one is locked into a cycle of unremitting drudgery which would entail the end of literature and music, romance and adventure, and everything good.

Kain asserts that &#8220;many neocons and movement conservative types are suffering from a total break with reality.&#8221; This gets him linked by Andrew Sullivan, naturally, since the Trig Truther loves nothing better than this armchair Adorno trick of treating conservative dissent as a symptom of psychopathology. Kain&#8217;s implicit syllogism is this:

All reasonable men of good will are liberal;
This person criticizes liberalism; 
Ergo, this person is either unreasonable or has malevolent motives. 

The syllogism is valid, but the primary premise is flawed. It is a species of ad hominem, with ...]]></description>

&#8220;How is it that Charles Johnson and Christopher Orr both think Glenn Beck . . . represents the camel&#8217;s nose in the tent, a dangerous intrusion of crackpottery into the Republican mainstream, while the genuine wingnuts still feel as ostracized and alienated as ever?&#8221;

Of course, if conservatives ever resort to such arguments, this is called &#8220;stereotyping,&#8221; and reinforces the favorite liberal mesage that all conservatives are hateful bigots. Therefore, no one on ...]]></description>

Via Dave, we see the press is ignoring the Tea Party movement. But can they ignore a naked Tea Party? Ah, the sacrifices that patriots must make for the cause of freedom . . .

		<description><![CDATA[ A lot worse, frankly &#8212; but just wait, and it will get worse. Idiots and economic ignorati are giddily cheering Monday&#8217;s market bounce, but it&#8217;s just an upward zig that will make no lasting difference in the a long downward zag. In mid-February, economics professor Peter Navarro predicted the Dow would bottom out at 6,000, so we&#8217;re currently about 30% over that.
What we are confronting is the hard reality of a disaster that was summed up in September by Michelle Malkin: &#8220;The fundamentals suck.&#8221;

		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;Why do women love Bad Boys? Why do &#8216;nice guys finish last&#8217; with the ladies, while no woman can resist the charm of a &#8216;black-hearted varmint&#8217; like Rhett Butler? . . . What if, beneath the rugged veneer of the proud renegade, a woman espies something more tender, honest and decent than is apparent to those who judge superficially? Well, then, if she can win his love, she will have gotten herself a genuine romantic bargain. And, as you know, no woman can resist a bargain.&#8221;

With so many problems afflicting America today, especially with the economy in crisis, what purpose was served by [Attorney General Eric] Holder&#8217;s remarks? Trillions of dollars in asset value were wiped out by the collapse of the housing &#8220;bubble&#8221; and the ripple effects of that collapse have shaken financial institutions worldwide to their very foundations. It hardly seems a convenient moment for an angry racial harangue from the nation&#8217;s chief law enforcement official.

Democrats . . . refuse to consider large-scale rollbacks of state government programs. Doing so would jeopardize their standing among key constituencies, especially public-sector unions like AFSCME and SEIU. Instead, they want to bulldoze Republicans into jacking up taxes even higher, making the state that much less competitive and forcing business relocation to increase.
&#8220;Capital flight&#8221; would be as apt as &#8220;business relocation&#8221; to describe the mass exit of investment from the West Coast Zimbabwe.

&#8211; Hunter S. Thompson
Remember that New York Times piece last week about how &#8220;experts&#8221; said the rise in teen pregnancy didn&#8217;t really represent any increase in teen promiscuity? Now, a noted authority on the subject is raising doubts:

Well, that settles it, eh? Despite the blip in teen pregnancy, teenagers actually aren&#8217;t screwing around so much. Another &#8220;myth&#8221; busted by the New York Times!
The skeptical reader raises an eyebrow. Less teen sex, more teen mothers? Skepticism is arguably justified. Social science cannot provide ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Last week, my roundup of reaction to Obama&#8217;s inauguration speech prompted one commenter to accuse me of coming down with &#8220;Obama Derangement Syndrome,&#8221; to which I replied sarcastically. Now, over at Pajamas Media, I&#8217;ve written a whole article about ODS:

Where are the right-wingers mounting anything remotely like the mass demonstrations organized by International ANSWER? Where is the right-wing equivalent of the Code Pink women who disrupted congressional hearings and State of the Union speeches?
No such analogs exist. For better or worse, Republicans don&#8217;t much go for the politics of protest. ...]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[From my latest essay at Splice Today:

Given the Newtonian opposition of their political loyalties, and their vastly different literary ouevres, the fans of Hunter S. Thompson and the fans of Ann Coulter are very near to being mutually exclusive sets. A Venn diagram would show an almost infinitesimal overlap between Set A (those who admire the drug-addled king of gonzo) and Set B (those who admire the acid-tongued right-wing blonde). Yet as one of the few occupants of Set AB, I find striking parallels between the two, and wonder why ...]]></description>

It will be the second daughter and first son for Ringwald, 40, and husband Panio Gianopoulos, 33. They have a 5-year-old daughter Mathilda Ereni. The babies are due in August.
Secret Life&#8216;s second season airs on Monday nights on ABC Family. A spokeswoman for the show says Ringwald&#8217;s pregnancy will be written into the storyline.

The recent proposal distributed by congressional Democrats will provide only an additional $15 billion in 2009 and 2010 for road construction and repair. And of that $30 billion total provided, some funds are earmarked for narrow uses such as technology training or construction of roads on Indian reservations and in national parks.
According to those calculations, that&#8217;s just a little ...]]></description>

Last night, quite late in the evening, and on the show, the girl who has pledged to sell her virginity for the highest bid, convinced her to not &#8220;give it up&#8221; if a higher bid &#8211; individual or cumulative comes in to top the present $3.7 million offer that has been registered.

Eight years ago today, I took my daughter Kennedy to see President Bush&#8217;s inauguration. The weather was miserable, a cold drizzle of sleet and rain falling for most of the day, but that was of little concern to a dad taking his 11-year-old to watch a moment of history.
Kennedy was homeschooled and, as part of her social studies lessons that year, she had followed the presidential election, assembling a scrapbook of newspaper clippings about the campaign. . . .

Israel called off its three-week offensive in the Gaza Strip on Saturday, saying Hamas was &#8220;badly beaten,&#8221; but the Islamist group vowed to fight on in a war that has killed 1,200 Palestinians in the coastal enclave.
Within minutes of Prime Minister Ehud Olmert announcing that a unilateral ceasefire would start three hours later at 2 a.m. (0000 GMT) on Sunday, several missiles struck southern Israel.

Barbara Walters introduces Ann Coulter by saying that her new book, Guilty: Liberal &#8216;Victims&#8217; and Their Assault on America, is &#8220;deliberately provocative because, after all, that sells books.&#8221; Which might have been said about, inter alia, Bill Buckley&#8217;s God and Man at Yale.
Whoopi Goldberg &#8212; whose show-biz career has been largely based on shock value &#8212; subsequently lectures Coulter: &#8220;I know you want to do this whole &#8216;Left&#8217; thing &#8212; that&#8217;s your act.&#8221; We are to presume that, in Goldberg&#8217;s mind:

The content of &#8220;Big Hollywood&#8221; will be a &#8220;constant evolution,&#8221; Breitbart says. He recalls that the Huffington Post was originally conceived as a group blog for Arianna&#8217;s celebrity friends, but has since &#8220;developed organically&#8221; into a more news-oriented venture with political commentary and only occasional contributions by big names. &#8220;It really is hard to look at that site and see it as a celebrity blog,&#8221; he says.

Of course, Hamas being Hamas, they will never stop trying to kill Jews. Fans of The Godfather will recall that Carlo, being Carlo, chose a coward&#8217;s revenge by betraying Sonny to rival mobsters, so that at last Michael Corleone assigned Clemenza to deal decisively with Carlo.
If this analogy can be stretched a bit more, then, ...]]></description>

I graduated from college in 2002, when newspapers really were skeptical of blogs. By 2004, I was being paid by a Media News Group paper to blog full time. In 2006, I attended a top flight journalism school where professors forced students to blog, new media guru Jay Rosen constantly harped on the need for newspapers to innovate, and almost none of my peers, all people who sought journalism degrees, had any objection to blogging. ...]]></description>

Goldfarb&#8217;s offending post was not a mindless advocacy of violence, but rather a reflection on the fundamental difficulty of fighting a fanatical enemy:
The fight against Islamic radicals always seems to come around to whether or not they can, in fact, be deterred, because it&#8217;s not clear that they are rational, at least not like us. But to wipe out a man&#8217;s entire family, it&#8217;s hard to imagine that doesn&#8217;t ...]]></description>

Iran&#8217;s president presented parliament with a sweeping economic package Tuesday that calls for scrapping costly state subsidies for fuel, water and electricity and raising taxes to make up for the steep slide in world oil prices.
The move is a risky one for President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who already is facing public disenchantment over Iran&#8217;s economic problems as he heads into June elections. . . .

The tactic of blaming Palin for &#8220;racist anger&#8221; toward Obama developed as a theme during the fall campaign, evidently based on post hoc ergo propter hoc thinking within Team Obama. Threats against Obama increased as the campaign heated up after Labor Day, and since this followed the Aug. 29 announcement of the Alaska governor as Republican running mate, Palin herself was scapegoated.
That claim was distilled in a November article in the ...]]></description>
