The Golden Girl was watching the tube last night and files this report on bogus Bush memos, Powerline, and Fox News:
Last night on Fox News, Tony Snow (filling in for O'Reilly) mentioned Powerline by name in his discussion of the Dan Rather debacle. A CBS apologist suggested than Dan Rather's investigative reporting would always be superior to "a couple of guys in their pajamas".
Powerline in their pajamas? Fraters in their underpants? Makes me wonder: what did blogger's row really look like at the RNC? Was it an elegant soiree of Hefner-esque bon vivants, clad in their silk robes, each with a GOP babe-of-the-day perched on their laptop, huskily debating constitutional law? Or was it an endless freak show of "comic-book-guy-from-the-Simpsons" look-alikes, stuffed into their Spiderman tights (but for Hugh, being Ralphie, ever resplendent in his fuzzy pink rabbit jams) speaking Klingon to one another, and creeping the bejeezus out of any unfortunate former Miss America who had the misfortune to exit the elevator at the mezzanine level rather than the penthouse?
C'mon. Pull on those BVDs and let us know.
Well I can't resist a challenge like that. (Incidentally, right now I am sporting plaid boxers, though Merona is the brand - purchased at Target - not BVDs.)
I wasn't in NYC for the Republican Convention, so I don't know what the amazing spectacle of bloggers row actually looked like. But, credentialled blogger extraordinaire Captain Ed was good enough to post a picture of himself on blogger's row. Heffner-esque bon vivants or Comic Book Store Guys speaking Klingon to each other? I'll let you decide. My opinion--that guy in the background looks more like a Romulan than a Klingon.
