Why Joe outed Valerie, and today’s items

All the outrage over Valerie Plame’s outing. But did Joe Wilson outed her? When And Why Joseph C Wilson IV Outed Valerie Plame (h/t Larwyn).

TownCommons posts about The New York Times at their most irresponsible and disingenious. Why are so few people outraged at the NYT??

Speaking of what the media doesn’t cover, Michelle Malkin has a sensational round-up of the Gathering of Eagles. Follow every link! Jane has the pictures.

Patrick Hynes has a post and video of McCain’s New Hampshire visit, and notes,

My friend Hugh Hewitt makes a point that candidates for high public office cannot reach their target audiences without the aid of conservative media. Hugh says this not because he is a member of the conservative media, but because it is true. No candidate, including my client John McCain, will successfully navigate the primary process without communicating with and through the talk radio/blog/Podcast/YouTube nexus.

If you haven’t watched it yet, you must: Make time today and watch the entire 1-hour-and 15-minutes of The Great Global Warming Swindle:

Update: Dr Sowell writes,

“Global warming” is just the latest in a long line of hysterical crusades to which we seem to be increasingly susceptible.

(end of update)

Speaking of ecological shell games such as Global Warming, Dinocrat has an excellent post on The pimping, pumping, primping and propping of China’s accounting and why Purchasing Power Parity is not a substitute for GDP figures (h/t Larwyn).

Louisiana Conservative posts brain bullets

Dr Sanity has The Carnival of the Insanities:

In a lighter mode, Maria sent the NOT SUITABLE FOR WORK The F’in Departed: The Acadamy Award winning best picture of 2006 in under two minutes. Had Maria sent me the link two weeks ago, I would have rented a different video!

Ace explores why Why Are Women So Easy When It Comes To Giggles? I laughed so hard when I did my podcast with Steve of Hog On Ice that one of his commenters asked if I have a speech impediment. (Steve’s making pizza – go check it out).

I’ll be blogging more later. Possibly because of the Gore effect (was Al in NJ two days ago?) we still have a couple of inches of ice on the driveway, so I’ll be staying in today – might as well blog!
Update The temps went up to 40F and the ice melted enough that it could be scraped off the driveway. I like that.

Late afternoon blogging: warming, lard and Coulter

We’ve all heard The Girl from Ipanema,

Well, Mark Steyn’s singing about the boy with carbon offsets,
Tall and tan and young and lovely, the boy with carbon offsets goes walking and when he passes each one he passes goes aaaiiieeeeeeeee!

—————————————–

Today’s podcast is now archived. Go listen to Steve Graham of Hog on Ice, Layla and I discuss lard and Ann Coulter.
blog radio

Everybody might be talking about Coulter but we’re the only ones to inject lard into the conversation.
PS, I laughed so hard one of Steve’s commenters asked,

Does she have a speech impediment?

Yes.
