How many drunken frat gurls has the sacro-slunked Tweety nailed on those Hardball college tours?

As for De-lay da Blogger, how about a COMMENTS section where only Red Staters are welcome. Why change the GOP Web lifestyle?

The last time I looked — and I ain’t going back — my comment had not been posted at that motherfucker’s blog.

By the way, Tom D’s first blog entry is an attack on Jimmy Carter’s new book. TD makes a great deal of the book’s title, while getting it wrong.

The actual title is “Palestine: Peace not Apartheid.”

In his new book “Palestinian Peace, not Apartheid”, (the very title should tell you that it is a hit piece on Israel) Carter liberally mixes Hamas talking points with reality.

I appreciate the double-entendre in the post’s title, “Hail Fellow (Blogger), Well Met,” since it implies both the friendliness of a warm welcome to a comrade, as well as to raise the suspicion of the overly friendly fellow who may pick your pocket. Archaic both, but poignant each.

On the other hand…King Oberon, in A Midsummer Night’s Dream, greets his Queen with “Well met by moonlight proud Titania” shortly before he puts a spell on her so she falls in love with a jackass. We could only hope that Tom Delay’s success in the blogosphere is akin to Titania’s luck with her donkey. Or, better yet, that e-spell will wear off and Tom will just go away.

My comment got on there, I wondered if it would.
I just misspelled a few words and didn’t use many punctuation marks, asked how we get the “taint of money” out of politics. And I “Congradulated” him on his new post. (What new post? but it sounds kind and nicey-poo.)
Evil little man….

Removing comments on his blog?

That doesn’t sound like the Tom Delay who once compared himself to Jesus…

looseheadprop @ 108 -

This is the real deal, lhp - just out today, and it’s a Section 6(c) ruling, not 6(a). [See emptywheel’s recent thread “CIPA Fun” and its comments for more information on last week’s 6(c) filings and developments. Things clearly started to come to a close over the last week.]

The previous thread here has more details on today’s filings. I’ve posted the full Order at #70. AP and MSNBC have reported on it so far today, and this IS HUGE. Libby’s efforts from Day One of this indictment to get a graymail dismissal, have in fact failed, as of today.

It’s too bad most of the media have ignored the tremendous efforts that have gone into achieving this decision - starting especially intensively in late September, and not concluding until today. This is a very, very significant victory for the government - especially given that it was looking less and less likely after the 6(a) ruling you reference. But Fitzgerald and Friends managed to pull it off in the end.

It’s actually hard to absorb the full import of this CIPA ruling today. THANK YOU, Judge Walton…
