The best comment I've seen in forever, on Roy Edroso's alicublog about Rich Lowry and this whole Arizona thing:
Also, if you go back to Quin Hillyer on the fainting couch about Johnny Weir gaying up figure skating, this week brings us National Review writers protecting the following from gays: 1) figure skating 2) bakers 3) florists 4) photographers. They can't even figure out which end of the slippery slope is which.

nutrition information labels about to become "a whole lot more intrusive":
These reforms are not minor. The most important change is that they are increasing the size of a serving, so all foods and beverages will immediately appear to be more calorie-laden than before. Anyone watching their calories could be easily caught out by this, and eat less, for instance. But that is irrelevant to the main point at issue here — the role of the First Lady.
― difficult listening hour, Thursday, 27 February 2014 19:18 (ten years ago) link
Today's nutrition labels state the size of a serving and the number of calories in a serving of that size. Under the immanent doomsday scenario, nutrition labels will *gasp* state the size of a serving and the number of calories in a serving of that size.

dlh you dropped the best line:
But that is irrelevant to the main point at issue here — the role of the First Lady. As one food-industry insider told Politico, “I don’t think anyone is going to be foolish enough to attack the first lady — that’s just stupid.”

How We Can Make Putin Pay, and Why We MustBy Elliott AbramsMarch 3, 2014 2:44 PM
― Bryan Fairy (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Monday, 3 March 2014 20:07 (ten years ago) link
Putin pays $50 at least
During investigation of the Iran-Contra Affair, Lawrence Walsh, the Independent Counsel tasked with investigating the case, prepared multiple felony counts against Abrams but never indicted him.[24] Instead, Abrams cooperated with Walsh and entered into a plea agreement wherein he pled guilty to two misdemeanors of withholding information from Congress.[25] He was sentenced to a $50 fine, probation for two years, and 100 hours of community service.

I constantly see Right Wing relatives comparing her to Marie Antoinette and seem to think that the Obamas are living like monarchy while the rest of the US starves which is a little odd to me because nothing they do seems flashy and I think they take fewer vacations than other families in the White House.

Anyway, last week, I felt a surge of bitterness. Why? I am disliking the current occupant of the White House more than ever. And, on seeing this house, I winced. And then I caught myself: "Come on, Jay. It's still the White House. Presidents come and go. This is a great and glorious country, with a constitution, separation of powers, regular elections . . . Don't have an ‘our planes' attitude." Like others, I suppose, I have to remind myself of this from time to time. I think I'll need ever more frequent reminders in coming years.

It's so extra funny when these types complain about unemployed people being lazy and liberals not wanting to work and stuff. This guy's job is basically transcribing a toddler-age hissy fit into a string of multisyllabic words.

Mr. Farrow and the Obama SyndromeBy Victor Davis HansonMarch 4, 2014 1:08 PMComments18 Print Text
Young, charismatic, good-looking, hip, and glib are all superficial traits that supposedly cerebral liberal elites have a bad habit of believing trump experience, knowledge, humility, and what the Greeks called pathei mathos, learning through requisite pain. Once someone is acclaimed as a liberal prodigy by elites, stamped with the right Ivy League brand and aristocratic contacts that resonate through networking and cocktail parties along the Boston to D.C. corridor, all normal cross-examination seems to end.
He is anointed a genius—and then usually Nemesis strikes, in the fashion that the once just-about-to-be-appointed New York senator Caroline Kennedy could not find a polling place or finish a sentence without a “you know” (142 times in an interview), or Barack Obama became Phaethon, his crashing chariot our presidency, and his collision scorching those below him. Harvard Law can teach one everything one needs to know except how to pronounce corpsmen, establish a deadline, red line, or step-over line, and why not to be post-election flexible with Vladimir Putin who really was America’s chief conventional worry all along.

I dropped by VDH's wiki page and (surprise!) I find that he has a PhD from Stanford from which post he berates elitism, and a fellowship at the Hoover Institute from which vantage he berates networking in the Boston to D.C. corridor. No exclusive prep school, though. His Stanford doctorate was in classics, so the urge to flash his credentials is vestigial.

One wonders why "conventional" worries merit a special category of worry, or why he suddenly wants to elevate that category ahead of nuclear worries or terrorist worries, which right-wingers seem to rate far higher than Russian tanks whenever it is more convenient to their aims.
