"RALEIGH, North Carolina (AP) -- A shipwreck off the North Carolina coast believed to be that of notorious pirate Blackbeard could be fully excavated in three years, officials working on the project said."
But when do they find the Black Pearl?
Wow, Firsties!
Otay, I'll be second.
His crime: asking a question of another author (Mark Smith) about Ann Coulter, and about the Paula Jones case. Borchers had spent money, bought tickets, took time off work and traveled from Maryland as he does every year, to be at CPAC. He is a lifelong Republican, a conservative military veteran, whose only crime is being morally offended by the way conservatism has been ruined by people like Coulter who indulge in hate speak. He believes it is his moral obligation to bring attention to this, and that "evil triumphs when good men do nothing."

Blognerds are probably well aware that, at long last, someone in a respectable publication has pointed out that Glenn Reynolds is completely insane. The article in question - by one Paul Campos - compares Reynolds to Ward Churchill, who, if you don’t know, is … um, I don’t know who he is, either. A community college professor or something
Actually Churchill wrote some very important stuff on Cointelpro (which of course we're not supposed to talk about).
If anybody can recommend me a more "mainstream" book about Cointelpro as good as Churchill's "The Cointelpro Papers" I'd like to buy it.
Did'ya hear what McCain did? Tired of selling his soul, he lambasted Coulter and all "the mindless flock" that applauded.
Just kiddin'
Mer, what's the Tony Snow update?
I guess it would be too much for him to understand habeas corpus or bill of attainder
Tony Snow was the celebrity guest. Paula Poundstone was cracking me up.
Churchill said stupid stuff, like his little Eichmans comment, but his basic point--of chickens coming home to roost--is important, and it's this which the establishment finds unacceptable, the notion that United States contributed in some way to 9-11. Which, of course, is neither radical nor debatable.

I think Alexander Cockburn might meet Joe's definition. Haven't been able to think of anyone else.
This post strikes me as very smug.
um, I don’t know who he is, either. A community college professor or something
Someone made famous by the vast right wing conspiracy. Which is not really a conspiracy, since it's right out in the open. But it's uncivil, shrill, and terminally smug rhetoric to talk that way, so no one who talks that way can have any credibility.
But Ward Churchill is dangerous and nuts anyway, and is precisely why academia in America is a hotbed of commie symps and immoral ideas. Just ask David Horowitz, who is not shrill or terminally smug, nor a member of a right wing conspiracy.
Because he's right out in the open about it.

One word that I think Joe Klein understand very well is "paycheck."

Yep. If you want a more "respectable" version of Churchill's idea about Chickens Coming Home to Roost check out Chalmer's Johnson's triology "Blowback" "Sorrows of Empire" and "Nemisis".
Actually Churchill wrote some very important stuff on Cointelpro (which of course we're not supposed to talk about).
1) Old news
2) It involved Republicans, and was investigated by Democrats, so it is never to be spoken of again.
3) Journalists who do talk about it are "Murrow's Boys," and so have no journalistic credibility or integrity.
QED.
Churchill said some things he shouldn't have. But his "Genocide" provides a fundamental understanding of the European invasion of America. I highly recommend it.
I think what Joke Line really meant was, "unlike everyone else I have been in contact with over the course of my career, Atrios and the rest of these rabble-rousers seem to feel they can say what they really think about me and my writing, and say it to a very large audience. Don't they worry about how awkward and uncomfortable it will be when we meet in a green room or at a cocktail party? This is not the way people with large megaphones have traditionally behaved in our sheltered little world."
I kinda wish Atrios would back up his snarkiness with some substance and/or fisking.
Y'know. Rather than being all smug.
Also sweaty and lunky.

Exactly. Somehow, it's ok for Dinesh D'Souza to blame 9/11 on Americans and American policy, but Churchill loses his job over it.
You forgot 'faggot'.
So, new to this blogging thing, what's that "trackback"ing all about?

http://cliffschecter.blogspot.com/
There is a very highly used trope in the genre wingnuttery (a trope closely akin to "anecdotalism") in which one cherry-picked apparently extreme example, we can call it a "Ward Churchill," is made to stand for the whole of leftie leftie leftarianism.
And Joe Klein is much more than willing to play along.

He's here at the university of colorado in boulder. Got tenure without a PhD and is genuinely smug. His students liked him, everyone else found him tedious and more than a bit oily.
Jeez, Atrios, you're killing me with that smugness.

"Joe should leave this blog thing to the kids"
Yeah, it's like watching a 70 yr old man put on "hip-hop" clothes, a backwards baseball hat, and start rapping.
"Poochie" from the simpsons comes to mind. 
2) It involved Republicans, and was investigated by Democrats, so it is never to be spoken of again.
It involved both Democrats and Republicans. Wilson and the Palmer Raids? J Edgar Hoover under Kennedy and Johnson?
It was investigated by the Church Committee. Some token gestures towards abolishing it were made but it continued. This is why Churchill is important, not just a "Community College Professor". After the Church Committee, it's main focus was the American Indian Movement, a detailed study of which shows just what a sham the Church Committe was.
The new twist of course is that it's now being codified and made legal. The government's always tortured and assassinated people. Only now it's being codified and made legal.
Oh, btw, and this won't make me popular around here. Clinton began the process in 1996.
Klein should give up the bloggin thing and stick to his patented brand of fact-based journalism.
/falls off chair laughing
P.S. When one talks about someone (say, Coulter) with "Borderline Personality Disorder" does "borderline" refer to the borderline between sanity and insanity? This is a serious question.
How many journalists have lost their jobs for being for the invasion in 2003?
How many journalists profited from being for the invasion/occupation?
Joe?
It's so odd, the way that Ward Churchill even still serves as a lightning rod for all kinds of shit.
His ideas are brilliant, in my opinion, and I love his in-your-face style of expressing them.
His scholarly creds are questionable. Further, even his identity as a Native American is rather iffy, when you get right down to it, which wouldn't matter except that he trades on it...
Anyways...
Also sweaty and lunky.

Churchill's idea about Chickens Coming Home to Roost
I think there's a lot to the chickens coming home idea, I think it's also worth noting that we have fucked over a lot of other countries whose cultures don't feel the need to kill innocent civilians in response. I fear that sounds Freidmanesque or even even (gasp) Hitchensesque but it is true and I think it's a point that the Churchills and the Cockburns and the Parentis too often miss. In other words, we are a big part of the problem, but there is also a problem "over there" that we can't ignore. Which doesn't mean the correct approach is to stick our finger in its eye.
in all seriousness, i wouldn't waste valuable blog space on mr. klein... there's plenty of other, much more important things going on in the world without continuing to responding to the bait of a very small man...

This is a serious question.
I always took it to mean that the personality disorder wasn't so serious that the person couldn't, to some extent, function in society.
I, however, am not a psychiatrist.
It involved both Democrats and Republicans. Wilson and the Palmer Raids? J Edgar Hoover under Kennedy and Johnson?
I know. I was exaggerating for effect (I do that, frequently). This, of course, means it was "bi-partisan," which has become code for "since Democrats did it, too, it's not a scandal, except that Democrats won't admit they are as corrupt as Republicans, at which point there are no scandals in D.C., so quit disturbing our cocktail parties."
It's the Catch-22 of Beltway journalism.

In accordance with my unimproved meat-and-potatoes palate, I don't eat nothin' that stinks.
And with all due respect to our resident Poissonniere, I've always been amused by seafood aficionados who insist that properly cooked fresh fish doesn't stink. I understand that people who enjoy odoriferous foodstuffs don't mind the stink (as George Costanza doesn't mind the smell of manure). But the fishophiles I'm referring to would have one believe that if one has the "wrong idea" that fish stinks, one must have been corrupted by a lifetime around inferior, post-fresh, poorly cooked fish. Even if one can detect a seafood entree being served twenty feet away at a respectable restaurant. I ain't buyin' it. 'Cause I've never witnessed this Holy Grail of fish that, like the Burning Bush, smokes but is not consumed by stink.
There are exceptions; when my mom occasionally cooked leg of lamb for dinner, my sister and I would say, "Eeww, 'barnyard'!" when we came in the house. But the strong cooking smell didn't persist when the meat was served.

Churchill's a very weird guy who lied about his Vietnam War service (he served but he embellished it).
His work is also amazingly inconsistent (because he never went through an ordinary academic process). The essay about Chickens Coming Home to Roost was dumb. Pablo the illegal immigrant bus boy didn't deserve to go to his shift at Windows of the World then have a 767 smash into his face and 110 floors of molten steen land on his head.
But his work on Cointelpro is seminal and should be read by everybody.

But here's what happened. Horowitz was able to remove him from his tenure and define the terms on how a professor could be removed.
Note. They didn't fire Churchill for making obnoxious statements about 9/11. They fired him for "academic irregularity" after they went through his work with a fine tooth comb and found some trivial errors.
Other academics got the message since nobody could have withstood that kind of scrutiny.
It's actually very similar to what happened to Amanda Marcotte. If the "liberals" blogosphere would have approached Churchill case in a more intelligent way instead of distancing themselves from him, they would have been much better prepared and Marcotte might still have a job with John Edwards.
res - and here are the criteria. The thing about personality disorders is they're not so much about symptoms or specific characteristics as they are about the broad pattern of inflexibility one displays (whether through unwillingness or incapability) in interpersonal situations. The flavor of inflexibility differs across disorders, but what's common across them is a problematic rigid style that simply does not respond to circumstances.

excuse my post-academe bitterness, and excepting the fine scholars here, but this is exactly why i spit on a lot of lilly livered academics hiding in the comfort of their basement offices today. tenure should be sacred, the entire faculty should've walked off the job in support of it, and taken their graduate students with them. i didn't follow churchill's fall closely, but he gave horrorwits one of his most important moments of legitimacy. and he hasn't stopped with churchill.
i have similar feelings about academics who didn't do more to oppose the war when it began, despite have area specialties in all things iraqi or middle eastern. for too many, the saftey of the dry theory on paper is preferable to its application through actual action.

This is a verse from an Irish song called, FOGGY DEW.
Right proudly high over Dublin town
They hung out a flag of war.

Than at Suvla or Sud el Bar.

Strong men came hurrying through;
While Brittania's huns with their great big guns
Sailed in through the foggy dew.

You mean like Steve Ambrose and Dorris Kearns Goodwin?
Churchill made some mistakes but compared to Steven Ambrose and Goodwin his work as impeccable.
But Goodwin and Ambrose both have jobs.
And even if they had fired him legitimately, then they still fired him under the guidance/direction of David Horowitz. He was able to set the terms. And the message was still sent (since nobody's going to read this report in depth).
Every academic who isn't totally secure about his/her work is now going to be more cautious about making controversial statements.
Horowitz won.
Um, Southern Ireland was considerably less than enthusiastic about participating in the Great War.
They love to see the king walking over the rubble of destroyed U.S. cities.

True and sad.
Nothing matters but NYC, DC, and Cwarford.
Klein's post on rightwing extemism is shorter than his list of leftwing extremist attributes. He simply links to a Think Progress post about Coulter.
When I first heard that Joe was giving the Democratic address, I thought it was a joke. I'm quickly falling out of like with Harry Reid.

I assume Jokeline will be among the extreme centrists waxing horny over Rudy's machismo.
Harry Reid = Edward Glorious Goat.
I liked it a lot. I like police movies. I closed my eyes during the murders, though.
There's a lot of controversy in the "Zodiac community" (honest to God, there is one!) about the source material. Graysmith isn't exactly the greatest writer in the world, and a lot of people think he puffed Leigh up way too much as the "only real" suspect.
I read the book when it first came out and liked the story, though I could see Graysmith's problems as a writer pretty clearly. But it was the only book available (unbelievably), and, also unbelievably, it still pretty much is.
BTW, my wife and I were both kids growing up in the Bay Area when Zodiac sent his letter about shooting kids as they came off a school bus. She remembers having nightmares about it. Amazingly enough, just when that happened, my class was scheduled to go on a field trip to the coast south of San Francisco in a school bus. Surprisingly, the trip wasn't cancelled, but all the kids were a-twitter about Zodiac that day!
Horowitz won. Left Wing Extremist
Hmm. Your ideas are intriguing to me and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter.

Oh dear.
Get a load of MoDo's opening paragraphs in her latest piece on Obama:
As I sit across from Barack Obama in his Senate office, I feel like Ingrid Bergman in “The Bells of St. Mary’s,” when she plays a nun who teaches a schoolboy who’s being bullied how to box.
I’m just not certain, having watched the fresh-faced senator shy away from fighting with the feral Hillary over her Hollywood turf, that he understands that a campaign is inherently a conflict.

What she was trying to get across is that the left is fundamnetally fascist and used the example of that actor guy being forced to go to a re-education camp.
She did it so eloquently, too, faggot.

Cockeater calling someone else "faggot"?...amusing
...anyhoo...think back a few weeks ago...remember the vicious, knuckle-dragging bigots Edwards hired?...
...Ann was simply contextualizing the hypocrisy of the left..
..libtards just don't do nuance, do they?
Yeah, Jennifer's response to Joke Line is excellent (and not just 'cuz she mentions me!).

Perfect, indeed. I hate thinking of the tiny casket required for my brother, who died of the very thing that nearly killed me on numerous occasions.
I miss him.
Vallejo woman under indictment threatens to expose customers who used alleged D.C. escort service.
A Vallejo woman indicted on federal racketeering charges for allegedly running a $2 million prostitution ring in Washington, D.C., is threatening to sell detailed phone records of her clients to help pay for her defense, her attorney in a civil suit said Friday.
Deborah Palfrey, 50, may have no other choice but to "liquidate her only remaining asset," records involving some 10,000 clients, said Washington attorney Montgomery Blair Sibley, who is representing her in a civil asset-forfeiture case that is now on hold because of a criminal indictment handed up Thursday.
Authorities have already seized about $1 million worth of real estate and $500,000 in cash and stocks in the civil case, Sibley said. She now faces criminal charges under the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act -- known as RICO -- and conspiracy to commit money laundering.
In a February e-mail to federal prosecutors, Palfrey threatened to make "life miserable for those who used her escort agency's services," court records show.
"The press will have a field day at each of our expense," she wrote of the prospect of being prosecuted and releasing her 46 pounds of client records. "I can state with unequivocal certainty this situation will be a very long and unpleasant one. This, despite the sickening and humiliating additional lambasting I expect to receive in the media."
Also last month, Palfrey said she intended to depose a well-known former adviser to President Clinton.
England had basically negotiated Home Rule prior to WWI, then made it contingent upon participation in the war. The Irish were generally pretty skeptical of England's honesty in this matter, and justly so, since they had to fight a guerrilla war after WWI ended to achieve Home Rule.
Lunch beckons...talk on you guys later.
Dave,
let me know what you think when you go check it out. BTW, it's 2 hours and 40 minutes long!
Was it needless death after all?
For England may keep faith
For all that is done and said.
We know their dream; enough
To know they dreamed and are dead.
if that actor guy that was sent to the re-education camp wasn't a conservative before the incident -which I suspect he was, thereby the treatment he got- he certainly is one now
res ipsa loquitur,
Don't let fame ruin you.
fresh threads, sheets, drapes, owls
...anyhoo...think back a few weeks ago...remember the vicious, knuckle-dragging bigots Edwards hired?...
What is that you're saying, lying coward?
Dr Ivors,
I have a really chilling version of that song done by the Chieftons with some guest lady singer who is not identified - sends chills up your spine when you listen. If you want it, let me know.
If you tell people who are not very bright that they are not very bright, it only makes the discourse more confusing for them.
I hope Joe Klein uses this defense when he "lashes" back at Atrios.

Speaking of Fetid Water, I see Karen Tumulty thinks bringing up Rudy's past is ever-so-icky!
Of course, the "past" she wants to talk about has nothing to do with his mob ties, his serial adultery, or Bernie Kerik...
..libtards just don't do nuance, do they?
liberal jeenyus
The lying paid shill really thinks it is cute...
Dr. Black: Please don't pick on joke line any more. You "bully" you. You're going to hurt his feelings and he might have to tell his mommy on you.
Damn.... I head out for a bite to eat, and lo and behold, there's more work to be done.
So here goes, with apologies for missing my cue:
Fuck Joe Klein.
I got fed up with Joe writing his strawman lists about "left-wingers", so I decided to make my own list about the media:
