The techblogging elite, liberal femme bloggers, and their friends in the MSM are still yammering amongst themselves about the Kathy Sierra incident. Bloggers’ code of conduct. Civility badges. Blah blah blah.
Big props to Mary Katharine Ham for calling out the one-eyed, left-wing women bloggers (who still won’t admit their blind spot) and for demonstrating tough, [...]

***10/16 update…Marc Danziger at Armed Liberal claims there may be a “Jamail Hussein in the Yarmouk police station in Baghdad”…See-Dubya is skeptical…I have contacted CENTCOM for comment…stay tuned…***
Eason Jordan has further comment on his invitation and my acceptance:
Some of you have asked what’s up with IraqSlogger’s invitation to send Michelle Malkin to Iraq. It was [...]

Ashley Herzog is the Ohio University student whose photos were filched by some unknown hate-monger–still unidentified, still out there–who created a fake Flickr site with Photoshopped images of me. Those images were falsely publicized last week by UNC School of Law professor Eric Muller as authentic, and then picked up and broadcast widely by the [...]

Every weekday morning, after I get my kids dressed and fed and off and running for the day, I sit down in my home office to blog, write columns, manage Hot Air, and juggle duties as a Fox News contributor. I can’t wait to see what’s happening in the world, what tips readers have sent, [...]

***updated: tracking the source of the bogus Flickr photos…Wonkette editors demonstrate further malice…***
***update 9/30 6:25pm…I have just heard from the student whose pictures were stolen from Webshots by the creator of the bogus Flickr site. She is Ashley Herzog of Ohio University (not Oberlin, my alma mater, as the bogus Flickr site creator misled people [...]

I have blogged before about the obsessed UNC professor Eric Muller.

He and his friends at Wonkette have sunk to a new low (Guess insulting me with ping-pong ball jokes wasn’t enough). As a response to my column this week on Charlotte Church, they post a picture of a woman in a bikini that they [...]

Ditto to Allah’s reaction to Time magazine’s new piece by lefty blogger Joshua Micah Marshall:
This makes three bloggers writing for Time now: Marshall, Wonkette, and of course St. Andrew.
St. Andrew being the “conservative.”
Remember when WaPo hired Ben Domenech and the left wet its pants for days over the fact that they hadn’t hired a left-wing [...]

Pat yourselves on the backs, you tolerant liberal bastards.
***
This is hardly
the first
time
liberals
have
made Asian whore ping-pong ball jokes about me.
But Wonkette has now mainstreamed it. And I’m sick of it. Are you proud of yourselves? Do you get a bonus from Nick Denton for scraping the bottom of the barrel?

Josh Marshall has published a high school yearbook photo of Claude Allen, and his twin brother, Floyd.

The oh-so-compassionate Left is snickering at the possibility that Floyd Allen may have been responsible for the crimes with which Claude Allen has now been charged.
See here, here, here, here, and here.
I don’t see why this is funny. If [...]

Twenty-five of them to be exact.
Successful applicants will get “hands-on experience.”
No kidding.

Right up Wonkette’s alley

***update: video of Hitchens’ speech at Expose the Left…courtesy of Age of Hooper, which has more photos…more video here…***
Instapundit has photos of the pro-Denmark gathering at the Danish Embassy convened by journalist Christopher Hitchens this afternoon. Looks like there was a great turnout.
Lovely photo spread over at Vital Perspective.
Blogger Greg Tinti was also there with [...]

***scroll for updates***
Washington Post reporter Dana Milbank turned up on an MSNBC show to talk about the Cheney accidental hunting trip shooting wearing this costume:

Download and watch the video (Windows Media .wmv file).
Hat tip: Tom Elia at The New Editor, who rightly raises his eyebrow at Milbank’s display of less-than-objective journalism.

She. Is. Mad.
I think you will get a kick out of my latest, Unhinged-themed column: “Who are you calling angry?”
Intro:
Janeane Garofalo, left-wing actress-turned-Air America radio host, is a miserable woman. Last week before the holidays, she turned up on cable TV. No, not to count her blessings but to rant against conservative journalist Bob [...]

Thanks again to all who participated in the Katrina Blog for Relief event, which N.Z. Bear says will now be extended into a Blog Relief Weekend–ending on Labor Day. Look for more info on how N.Z. and Hugh Hewitt are refining the framework to better match donors and charities with specific needs in Hugh’s latest [...]

***scroll down for updates…Louisiana Gov. requesting federal troops…looting in Biloxi…hospital evacuations…someone looted a Dyson vacuum cleaner…”Finding vs. looting…”***
Darkness is descending on New Orleans, literally and figuratively. Just when you think it couldn’t get any worse, the N.O. Times-Picayune blog reports that the local children’s hospital is under siege:
Late Tuesday, Gov. Blanco spokeswoman Denise Bottcher described [...]

Thanks to OTB, I see that Michelle’s blog, this one you’re reading right now, is the biggest, baddest blog in the world. On behalf of my co-guest bloggers, I’d like to take all of the credit for myself.
Of course I would like to take that credit, but it would be absurd to do [...]

Liberals say they want women to be taken seriously in the arenas of government and public policy. They claim they want women to be judged based on their ideas, not their physical appearance.
Unless, of course, those women are conservative.
Case in point: the continued leftist mockery of GOP Rep. Katherine Harris, who is serving [...]

Doris Kearns Goodwin impersonates Wonkette (via lefty blog Crooks and Liars).

Some in the Washington press corps and on Capitol Hill are in a huff because Fox News Channel anchor/reporter Brian Wilson was too aggressive with DNC chair Howard Dean at his press conference with Sen. Harry Reid yesterday.
Awwwwww.
Wilson raised his voice. And he didn’t wait his turn. And he didn’t ask “substantive” questions. [...]

Reviews of the First Lady’s stand-up routine at the White House Correspondents Dinner keep pouring in. John Tierney gives it two thumbs up. Wlady Pleszczynski hated it. The Washington Post rounds up more reaction and there’s a spirited debate over at Lucianne.com.
I’ll have a bit more to say related to this in my column [...]

No, we’re not turning into Wonkette, but our friend Spokane Spokesman-Review columnist Dave Oliviera has an exclusive blog post on the sicko high school kid who sent semen-covered brownies to another student on Valentine’s Day.
Dave has posted the complete police report at Huckleberries Online.
Here it is: Blechhh.

Yes, that’s a new photo on the left. Thanks to Mark Jaquith, my web guru, for putting it up and thanks to Maureen Walsh for taking the shot.
And yes, it’s really me. No Libertarian Girl or Hot Abercrombie Chick stunts here.
Why the photo change? The previous photo, taken for the book flap of Invasion, [...]

I was recently interviewed by John Hawkins of Right Wing News. He asked me for my thoughts on a wide range of topics, including immigration, internment, death threats, Chris Matthews, Wonkette, Andrew Sullivan, Eason Jordan, and the MSM’s lack of interest in Easongate. Click here to read it.

According to Raw Story, Garrett Graff–contributing editor for Washington media blog FishBowlDC–will make history as “the first known blogger to be admitted to the White House press corps.” Graff has apparently been trying to get a day pass for some time.
Here’s Graff’s announcement:
Just received official word from the White House Press Office: Fishbowl D.C. will [...]

Actual headline featured in Google News’ top U.S. stories section:
Gonzales confirmed: war criminal to head US Justice Department
On a somewhat related note, I received the following e-mail from Google News recently that might be of interest to other bloggers wondering what the criteria are for inclusion as Google News sources:
Hi Michelle,
Thank you for your note. [...]

A picture of Jenna Bush with this caption: “She went to University of Texas, whatever. You don’t have to be in Skull and Bones to drink Jew baby blood.”
Can someone please explain this to me, because I honestly don’t understand it.
Update: I’m told that Jenna is giving the “Hook’em Horns” sign associated with the University [...]

Jonathan Klein, the president of CNN, thinks blogging is “you know, glorified Web-site hosting?that’s what it is.”
Yeah, you know, this is, like, basically the same as this.
Klein goes on: “I come out of the real world, man.”
Which real world is that, Mr. Klein, the planet Zarkon?

From Ana Marie Cox’s interview with Newsweek’s Richard Wolffe:

What did you think of the bloggers’ role in the Dan Rather affair?
Answer: I think they did a disservice to the debate because they made the debate about the documents and not about the president of the United States. There was another half to that story that [...]

Just when you thought you had heard the last of Jessica Cutler (a.k.a Washingtonienne a.k.a. Wonkette’s bosom buddy), check out the e-mail I received this evening from a Time magazine photo editor:

The gentlemen of Power Line are absolutely right: What happened to Ann Coulter last week was not funny.
Leftists greeted the news that two men attacked her during a University of Arizona college speaking event with glee, ridicule, and misogynist gloating.
(Dan Flynn notes that this isn’t the first time Coulter has been physically attacked.)
Now, can you [...]
