FYI, paleos have been at war with Neocons for 15 years, over a variety of issues, including civil liberties. As we all know, the Neocons won, primarily because they have no scruples and will smear anyone to achieve their ends. Their first victims were conservative paleos.

Something substantive could have been said about all this. Instead, this post is waste of time. Start over.

And Doctor, what does that make your knowing choice to use your precious time commenting on this post?

As for “Our pleasure”, I believe the correct grammatical term is royal plural.

Keith O picked that up, too. Talk about a Freudian slip.

USAs are responsible to serve the political (ready policy) agenda of the Administration.
If the President decides that Immigration and Terrorism are more important than white-collar crime and child support evasion… so be it.
BUT, that power does not extend so far as to allow an Administration to *selectively* enforce the law. Or to directly interfere with any investigation or prosecution. Those activities fall under “high crimes and misdemeanors”
As for “Our pleasure”, I believe the correct grammatical term is royal plural.

Per Phil de Vellis

I made the [Hillar/1984] ad on a Sunday afternoon in my apartment using my personal equipment (a Mac and some software), uploaded it to YouTube, and sent links around to blogs.

I’m not sure how I feel about the ad itself, but Phil certainly made his point about technology empowering amateurs to have an impact, not that bloggers need that point driven home to them. I’m particularly impressed by the latent power of stuff like politicstv, bloggingheads, theyoungturks, and current.tv for breaking the stranglehold of the CNN, Fox, and the other networks. Except for Olbermann, I can’t watch news on regular TV. It makes me ill.

Um, he’s a pro. Worked for the leading Political tech company.

I liked Bradley’s bit, too, and am definitely planning to check out his book.

Also — and seriously EPUd, I know — after skimming comments, I like the moniker Justice-Gate.

MSM can’t give up their gate-diction, so I like putting Justice on the front of it. Tells a powerful story about what, exactly, has been corrupted here.

Also, using Gonzo’s name and the no. 8 have built-in obsolescence: he’s out soon, and that #’s sure to climb.
