Easy Wind

No Pretense
Olbermann dropped any pretense of journalistic objectivity, and he became a hero to liberals battered by the popularity of Fox News Channel and its conservative commentators. (AOLnews, 1/21/11)

Eventually the truth comes out.

No Pillow
Does permitting a prisoner to walk in circle eights for one hour a day constitute exercise? Is not being allowed pillows or sheets a form of mistreatment? These questions may lie at the heart of a formal complaint lodged this week by the lawyer defending accused WikiLeaks leaker Bradley Manning, an Army private who is being held in military custody at Quantico, Va. (AOLnews, 1/21/11)

No fluffy pillow for suspected traitor Manning. (Has his lawyer considered the fact that he is not helping the "gays in the military" argument with his mincing complaints?)  If Manning is convicted, just wait. He’ll likely spend the rest of his life breaking rocks.

  1. On Olbermann, Jon Stewart said it best:

    "You can’t resort to childish attacks that are as hominem as they are nauseum. You’ve ceded the high ground and now you wallow in the fetid swamp of baseless name-calling."

    Hominem ad nauseum. Come to think of it, that's Latin for "the mainstream media."
