The W-Word: Fringe Journalism Is Fun!

Yes, the W is for “Weigel,” which term seems to have become as offensive (or boring) to some readers as “epistemic closure” or even “Elena Kagan Sex Tape” — the latter being a sort of satire of Rule 5, for which Marty Eisenstadt disclaims any responsibility. Summer is a great time for blog-fights because traffic always goes down during the summer anyway, […]

Andrew Breitbart, Genius

Hmmmm. Why is he publishing David Weigel’s explanation? Rep. Ron Paul (R, Tex.) knew that I liked him, and that I was voting for him — although that didn’t stop me from co-writing a story about the history of racist comments in newsletters he published. Bob Barr knew that I liked him, and trusted me […]

Exclusive Video: Andrew Breitbart Responding To Joan Walsh

by Smitty Previously in this blog, in the “Joan Walsh: The Smoker She Drinks, The Player She Gets” episode, we explored Joan’s ludicrous assertion of earlier, pre-racial epithet video from March 20th at the Capitol Building being used in place of some hypothetical footage that would substantiate the false claims. Walsh: As a friend notes, […]

Joan Walsh: The Smoker She Drinks, The Player She Gets

by Smitty Joan Walsh has posted the most risible dismissal of Andrew Breitbart imaginable. Emphasis mine: Andrew Breitbart isn’t fit to spit-shine the shoes of civil rights hero and Congressman John Lewis. It’s ludicrous to think that the right-wing bully believed he had the moral or political standing to call Lewis a liar, after Lewis […]

Breitbart Party Voodoo

“Best photo ever!” Lyndsey Fifield exclaimed after seeing this photo of a conversation at Friday’s New Orleans blogger bash off Chartres Street near the levee: Lyndsey reacts to Breitbart’s remark — a Tulane alumnus, Breitbart was confirming that New Orleans voodoo is a reality — as Dave Weigel of the Washington Post and political operative Zach […]

VIDEO: Live from New Orleans, It’s the Andrew Breitbart Experience!

The dude was on fire today at the Southern Republican Leadership Conference, and the MSM couldn’t get enough: Dave Weigel was asking Breitbart about criticism of the O’Keefe-Giles ACORN sting videos. And then a guy from CBS News asked some more questions: Right now, I’m blogging this upstairs while a Blogger Bash is going on downstairs. […]

Respectfully Disagreeing With Andrew Breitbart Here

by Smitty In an otherwise splendid post on the Left’s deconstruction plans for our country, I submit that he may need to revisit an assertion: The Democrats need to kill the Tea Party movement. They need to marginalize and demonize those who would stand up to their hardball, toxic and anti-democratic tactics. Their strategy is […]

Seeing Through Andrew Breitbart’s Cunning Plan

by Smitty (h/t LMA) Andrew Breitbart will continue to escalate the zeros on the right end of his racial epithet bounty. Past a certain tipping point, the temptation will be too great. Someone will mix in Dynamite Hack, covering Easy-E: (NSFW) However, by that time, the bounty will have crossed the Too Big To Fail […]
