What bokononists whisper whenever they think of how complicated and unpredictable the machinery of life really is.


By Elton Beard

There are two kinds of people in the world, those who divide people into two kinds and those who don't. I don't.

Sunday, November 6, 2005
1:00 PM PT

Shorter Jim Hoagland:
Hindsight in Iraq
  • Chalabi is back, suckers!

Friday, November 4, 2005
9:00 PM PT
Shorter David Gelernter:
In praise of a mangled masterpiece
  • The way kids communicate today, oy vey iz mir!

3:00 PM PT

Shorter Charles Krauthammer:
Distorting Sam Alito
  • To accuse Judge Alito of having conservative inclinations based only on his past rulings is despicable, discreditable and of course, depraved.

11:00 AM PT
Shorter Jonathan Chait:
Bush's dishonest mistakes
  • When Mr. Bush ordered the U.N. inspectors who were finding Iraq free of banned weapons to leave so he could launch his unprovoked war, he honestly believed he was acting to avert an imminent threat.

Thursday, November 3, 2005
9:00 PM PT
Shorter Jim Hoagland:
Open Up, Mr. President
  • Bush is innocent - he was framed by the CIA.

Plus: A Serious Accusation. Mr. Hoagland claims that Federal Prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald is dishonest - he calls him "deftly disingenuous" - and that the CIA is secretly manipulating the criminal justice system (and the media):

The hidden management of the criminal justice process and the news media practiced by spooks in Wilson-Rove-Libbygate is nothing short of brilliant.
But why? Why would the CIA have it in for Mr. Bush?
... operatives mounted a rebellion against the White House, in part to shift attention from their failures to yours.
So let's see. These CIA people have corrupted the courts and manipulated domestic media in carrying out a plot to damage an American president during wartime for personal gain. Some might call that treason. And all they get is this lousy Op-Ed piece?

See Also: The Sideshow and The Mahablog.

7:00 PM PT

Shorter Bull Moose:
High Crimes and Misdemeanors
  • I'm not saying the Bush administration didn't fabricate the reason for war, but to say they did is just plain rude.

Plus: No, Really. To discredit Mr. Bush's detractors, Mr. Moose makes sure to associate the accusation of administration mendacity with the dreaded Michael Moore. And that is the apex of his argument. Mysteriously, his defense of Mr. Bush not only marshals no evidence to obviate the charge of making war under false pretext but totally forgets to ever actually deny the grave allegation itself.

See Also: Atrios, Yglesias and Atrios again.

2:30 PM PT
Shorter Richard Cohen:
A War Without Winners
  • Don't you just hate it when you bomb and shoot and kill and maim and torture lots and lots of innocent people in distant lands for no discernable reason and the world is still not a better place?

See Also: Glenn Greenwald and Attaturk.

Wednesday, November 2, 2005
2:00 PM PT

Shorter Max Boot:
Plamegate's real liar
  • Wilson lied, the war is justified.

Plus: No, Mr. Boot, I expect you to lie. Max Boot's red herring is notable mostly for being itself comprised of several untruths which, coincidentally, closely resemble official Republican Treasongate talking points (see A, B, C and D, via). Several of these have been conveniently pre-refuted by Larry Johnson and Media Matters.

Tuesday, November 1, 2005
1:45 PM PT
Shorter Glenn Sacks:
Alito and the rights of men
  • You yoke her, you own her.

1:30 PM PT

Shorter George F. Will:
Let the Great Debate Begin
  • Observe! Over yonder! A judicial appointment of urgent import!
