Tuesday Open Thread: JournoList Edition
by PubliusThe corruption of the Juicebox brigade starts to get exposed today. We’ll have more thoughts on this later, but only one theory makes sense: the Washington Post’s Ezra Klein MUST be a GOP plant. Creating a listserve where mainstream journalists could expose their leftist bias? Brilliant! (We’ve seen it…it really is the Rosetta Stone of media bias.) Kudos to you, Mr. Klein!

Man, I can hardly wait for this!! Keep it up, Andrew!!!
What's a listserve?
.
I'm gonna hate missing this.
I really do have to work today; I'm not funded by the taxpayers.
The Summer of Our Discontent has been righteously bitchin' because of Breitbart!
It's technical in the details, but think of it today as the ultimate rock-star groupie backstage pass to the political dog-and-pony show of the Left.
………."I really do have to work today"
Wow !
What a Racist ,money grubbing capitalist,teabagging thing to say !
You should quit and let Obama pay you for 99+ weeks with your rightful government money.
Praise Obama and go back to bed
/Hahaha
Nah. I'm holding out for Nancy Pelosi's promise that I can follow my heart and become a well-paid artist. It's working for Shepherd Fairey after all. State-sponsored art is all the hipster rage, doncha know!
Great description! Kudos…
Dang!!!!!! I gotta work today too and I KNOW I won't hear anything about this on the radio news breaks. Look forward to checking in this evening. You rock, Andrew and Big Gov.
OK, now you're my hero!
Hero?!! LOL! Yes, I suppose in a feckless world, that's easy enough to be!
)
in their total arrogance this bunch of fools thought that they were safe from the harse light of day,I look forward to finding out what is hidden under this rock
WE LOVE ANDREW BREITBART! Thanks to people like him with INTEGRITY, HONESTY, and LOYALTY TO COUNTRY, the libRETARDS and those that support them through the dishonest MSM are getting exposed on a daily basis. Are you listening ny slimes, washington-huffington post, media truth-doesn't-matter, newsWEAK, and slime magazine? Your no challenged days of dishonest, biased, lack of integrity journalism are over!
It's the combined "dog & pony show" bit plus the "holding out for Pelosi's promise … well paid artist" responses; love the wit!
.
Why wasn't this on Big Journalism instead?
Ezra Klein MUST be a GOP plant.
Now now. Don't give him too much credit. Individual leftists may score high on standardized tests, but the simple fact that they are leftists means that lack a certain capacity for common sense. Consequently, when a leftist does something as dumb as leaving behind a "paper"-trail of the musings from one of their viper's nests, it's just an example of leftists doing what they do best: being self-destructive.
I would think that all the sharing of information across numerous for-profit entities should raise a number of Intellectual Property (yes, I know it's oxy-moronic) and anti-trust issues. An interesting twist could be a RICO investigation. Terms that come to mind include: fraud, illegal aliens, terrorism, and "systematic pattern". It would be less of a reach than barry-oh defending his healthcare tax…
How dumb are these supposed smart people? They leave the proverbial trail of breadcrumbs linking them to their dastardly deeds in the form of emails, texts, lists and photos.

Can't wait to see what Breitbart's got today! Buckle up, leftoids!
BTW, get a load of Charles Johnson on the NAACP tape (the Little Green Footballs dude, in case you've forgotten about him). He tried to say the Sherrod tape is just a bunch of hype. This, from a blogger who posted a video of a leftist getting booed when he crashed a Tea PArty protest, which Charles Johnson presented as "proof" the Tea Partiers were on the brink of getting violent. Yeah, Charles, that was eath-shattering evidence you presented there.
Charles Johnson is laughable. And his excusing of Sherrod's racism shows how seriously Charles Johnson treats racism. But it was always obvious that Little Green Footballs was attempting to smear conservatives and conservative groups and movements as "racist" because he's on a personal vendetta against his former friends. And my oh my is he jealous of Andrew Breitbart. Which is why, though I know that Little Green Footballs is in the dust-bin of blogosphere history now, I had to go check to see Charles Johnson's blood boiling over another Andrew Breitbart success. lol
Got my copy of an article that I feel is must reading:
"AMERICA'S RULING CLASS–AND THE PERILS OF REVOLUTION"
written by Angelo M. Codeville
in The American Spectator, Jul / Aug edition.
Bravo Brietbart, you the last journalist standing.
Can't wait
It's raining here now (in Tucson) and I'm going to dance in it to celebrate. Thank you Andrew and Tucker, you made my week!!
This should be instructive…and great fun!
Oh goodie……..I will have pop corn and lots of snacks for this. : )
Gosh………an all this time I've been busting my tail for nothing? ( And I don't even have a tail )
I wonder if these Wunderkins also have all the hidden/missing items from Obama's past somewhere in their Journolist?
Now now now, you can't be thinking of the past when we're to strive for the future, full of hope. ; )
Dog and pony show? More like 'pig and jackass' show.
Heh. I wanted to imply something more disgusting, such as sausage-making, but why cast delicious and non-halal foods in such a negative light?
Generically, a listserve is a software application that allows you to set up a group of email addresses so that any member of the group can send an email to the group address and it will be disseminated to all the individual email addresses. Common examples would be your local freecycle group, the PTA group email, etc.
I have a good feeling about what's about to happen here.
Andrew and Tucker appear to have grabbed the thread that will unravel the cover (up) that the leftist media has been hiding under for a long, long time.
Hang onto that thread and keep pulling fellas!!
Morning Sis! I'll have Pappa John's Pizza and ice cream sundaes. I wish I had the wherewithal to expose the list of "Journolists" — I could use a 100 grand right now! I would buy myself a grand piano.
This is going to be good! Too bad the media will bury this under more "important" stories like Mel Gibson's potty mouth, BP's role in the release of the Lockerbie Bomber and Chelsea Clinton's Wedding.
It is the duty of all readers to pass this along to those who may be in the dark on this issue. As much as you may hate social media like Twitter and Facebook, its a good way to spread the message. If we don't get out in front on this, the Left will control the meme. They have controlled the message for far too long.
Good Morning, I think we all could use a 100 grand about now, I'll have to bury mine in the back yard just for taxes, food and ammo. ; )
This story is explosive…criminal expose of 1st amendment abusers. That Klein looks like a real punk , spoiled at every turn by doting parents. What a creepy little guy. He and KOS look like matching troll dolls.
I think Monopoly money will be worth more than the dollar?! We'll split the dough and build a nuclear bunker cause I wonder if O will go on TV one day and reveal WHERE are nukes are kept!
I heard Governor McDonnell announce last week that Virginia's budget is at a surplus. I know that our local school district cut 300 jobs and even our local library is closed on Thursdays and has removed positions. I'm glad we have a Conservative running VA again because I couldn't imagine some dumb liberal raising taxes right now when everyone is hurting.
Do any of you ever listen to NPR for laughs?
On my way home this AM they did a piece on some MSNBC reporter I have never heard of. The report was a hoot!
http://www.npr.org/templates/player/mediaPlayer.h...
"NBC news holds a unique place in broadcast journalism. It's the only old school network news division that clings to the concept of journalistic impartiality yet also has a sister cable channel in MSNBC that has found ratings success with a prime time ideological tilt, in MSNBC's case, to the political left…"
I can just imagine the people writing this stuff…
David Folkenflik: Hey! <snicker> Lets say that NBC is impartial and that MSNBC has good ratings!
Cokie Roberts: BWAHAHAH! David! That is too funny! Lets do it!
Exactly, at least some of the climategate people thought to delete their emails.
Thank you Ralph, EVERYONE, EVERYONE needs to read this article, it perfectly describes our current
predicament with Democrats and REPUBLICANS both working in defiance of the will of the citizens of
the USA. Their arrogance is beathtaking and Mr Codevill lays out our current problem with their ignor-
ing their subjects, er uh constituents on the oCare vote as well as their defiantly continuing to spend,
spend. Please make every effort to read this article, you will understand what we are facing afterward.
Becks event in DC on 8/28/2010, is in my opinion an effort to poke the 'RULING CLASS' in the eye, and
shame them into rethinking many of their positions. Beck has understood that this ruling class is off
the rails and serving only themselves for quite a while. If the TEA Party event in DC during the oCare
vote didn't convince you NO ONE IS LISTENING TO US, then nothing will. We should all turn out on 8/28.
This is going to be fun to watch!
I heard that too. I watched him on Fox. He's doing a great job. : )
I thought our monopoly money was already worth more than our dollar. Shucks I've been buying monopoly games just for the money. ; )
Kind of the grandfather of discussion boards like this one.
Woooohoooo its on !
Cant wait
Ezra Klein a secret GOP plant? Otherwise, he is just an extreme leftist idealog who has defamed his profession and discredited himself. Which is it Ez?
What great loyal Americans mexicans are
And you want them to be given green cards because they would be perfect living next door to you
A loose network of Mexican-American women, some of whom may be illegal immigrants, have been responsible for helping numerous Afghan military deserters go AWOL from an Air Force Base in Texas,
Many of the Afghans, with the women's assistance, have made their way to Canada; the whereabouts of others remain unknown. Some of the men have been schooled by the women in how to move around the U.S. without any documentation.
The Afghan deserters refer to the women as "BMWs" — Big Mexican Women — and they often are the first step in the Afghans' journey from Lackland Air Force Base in San Antonio, Texas, to Canada, a diplomatic official told FoxNews.com. He requested anonymity because he is not authorized to speak publicly during an ongoing investigation by U.S. and international authorities into who helped the Afghans leave the Defense Language Institute’s English Language Center at Lackland.
The official's account was supported by a source at the Defense Language Institute (DLI), who also requested anonymity. Foreign soldiers attend DLI to learn English before they receive specialized military training at various installations in the U.S.
The Afghan military men usually meet the women at three nightclubs in San Antonio, according to the DLI source, who accompanied some of the men to these locations and has been privy to discussions among them about the establishments and the women.
The nightclubs include two military hangouts — Tiffany’s Cocktails and Mirage, located outside Lackland's main gate — and Graham Central Station, a massive warehouse-like building in downtown San Antonio that houses "six nightclubs under one roof" that host a variety of theme nights. Photos on Graham Central's website show scantily clad women rolling around in what appears to be Jell-O.

"Vast left wing conspiracy? Shucks no, you're all just a bunch of unenlightened right wing racist paranoids"
What happened to Charles? I missed the whole dust up and the next thing I knew, he started sounding like a raving lunatic.
As Glenn asked yesterday, "At what point do you start calling it a dictatorship?"
Flesh upon a field.
Our troops do not fight for riches or fame, but for us. They are our family members and not mercenaries to be discarded after the battle. There is nothing more sacred to a republic than equal representation and nothing more evil than to silence the voice of someone who left pieces of themselves on the field of battle. The polarizing forced collectivism of the two party system using the evil act of gerrymandering effectively silences the voice of our heroes, it divides our country, it has bankrupted our country. Gerrymandering is the key tool the progressives use to gain power and to maintain it. Gerrymandering is one party rule on the local level.
Regarding those 'journalists' who helped Obama get elected:
Let's momentarily try to forget their (lack of) ethics…
Their collusion was a TREASONOUS act!
If Kline is a plant, this will be fun. We may be saved after all. kudos Andrew, Ezra.
sarcasm is appropriate.
Great idea from Ace at AoSHQ:
Whenever a reactionary leftist starts screeching "RAAAACISM", ask him if Spence Ackerman told him to make that up.
I wonder why it's not on Drudge yet.
LoL………..Me, I started about a year ago.
How have you been? Long time no see. Yep, I know who you are. Why 101?
staying alive..
Why because it's "101 Dalmatians" of course. : )
dalmatian is not threating, just like me
Good to hear. You know what gave it away right?
Of the barbarous type.
i wasnt hiding. just starting…gerrymandering is my cause
thebarbarian is gone, plus the high rep score caused too many problems.
Oh, I know only too well. Will you be 100 tomorrow? It is a worthy one. There are a vast number of examples for us all to see. I am taking a lesson from Sun Tzu and making my enemy work for my cause. Hmmm, come to think of it the progressives have been doing that for some time. Now it's our turn.
ci
One side is calling us names the other is stealing our words..after november they will flip postions.. and things will remain the same.. our only hope is people will learn we are the real thing.
The venon from this boy band escapee's brigade is translated into silence from Couric, Schiefer , Brian Williams , Gibson Stephenopolis , Post and Times etc on facts that are uncomfortable to Dems. They have plenty of time for Lindsey Lohan, LeBron James or Balloon Boy but when facts about the inner workings of how citizens hard earned money is spent by governments of the Dems we hear nothing.
The absence of pictures of the Tea Party in Times Year in Picture 2009 according to Beck would be an erasing of the memory bank of reality. This is scary propaganda. No one , no matter what side of the political spectrum you are on should support corruption and dishonesty like this. There must be some moral Dems somewhere. Some that must be sickened to see fact dismissed.
You have righteous poetry my friend. If I owned a hat I would tip it for you.
