[...] That popping noise you hear is the sound of thousands of lefty’s heads exploding. Or it might be Michelle Malkin snoring… [...]

It amuses me that lefties are threatening to cancel Newsweek because it hired Rove but that is their right. I cancelled my subscriptions to Newsweek and USNews&World Report years ago because I could no longer take their left-wing blather and I am on the verge of cancelling my fifty year subscription to TIME.

Mort Zuckerman is a left-winger? I think you should have cancelled Time instead of U.S News & World Report.

I wandered through some of the leftosphere and they all insist heads exploded in the wingnutopshere at the Kos announcement, while all I’ve noted is muted bemusement.

I have had the same experience. I think Kos himself started that rumor because he wants to be important enough that it is true. In reality, we don’t read that leftist rag so we don’t care who writes for it.

I long ago refused to renew subscriptions to Newsweek, Time and US News & World Report. I used to receive all 3 in college and happily no longer, not even in my offices.

It’s been a reeeeeal long time since last I read Newsweek. Does Eleanor Clift still scribble her peaens to the Dems there?

Why would anyone on the right fear Newsweek’s decision to give Kos a forum? Ultimately, I want Kos to be the official voice of the democRATic party. Is there a faster way to consolidate a conservative majority than to let Kos speak his mind on behalf of the RATs?

Let him say as many stupid things as possible, then let the rest of his party either try to rationalize or distance themselves from his rantings.

Either way, that’s entertainment.

I don’t often approve of Allahpundit’s thinking, but that image of Kos always makes me think of Mentos. So I guess he’s not 100% evil, huh?

If Rove were as true to the Right as Kos is to the Left we might have something, but Rove is first, last, and always a hack, his only distinction being that he is one of the most over-rated hacks in all the Republican Party, which is saying a lot. No wonder Bush couldn’t get enough of him. Whatever this newsgeek thing turns out to be, it won’t be a battle of principles.

Newsweek? Wow, like many of you I am surprised they’re still in business.

I thought the same thing when I saw his announcement…who exactly was it that reacted so badly?
