It's Easy To Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life, If You're A Moron

Patterico:

The Greatest Day of the Year

It’s the greatest day of the year: the first day of work when I’ll come home during Daylight Savings Time. Plenty of time to go for a bike ride or a trip down to the beach, with daylight to spare.

I admire his plucky sunniness, but does anyone share his belief that the first working day after we lose an hour is, quote, "The Greatest Day of the Year"?

It's like he's just mocking us.

Bonus: Patterico excerpts from Beldar's blog regarding the claims Fitzgerald exceeded his authority or should have ended his investigation shortly after learning Armitage was the original leaker. Patterico disagrees strongly, noting (and I didn't know this) that Libby's original (claimed) lies predated Fitzgerald's involvement, and had been made to FBI agents fairly early in the investigation.

(It should be noted, however, that those mistatements consituted the only charge Libby was acquitted on.)

Beldars full defense of Fitzgerald -- and indictment of Libby -- is here, and probably worth reading for anyone determined to make a strong stand on the issue.

Whether I'll get around to it or not, I don't know. I respect Patterico and Beldar, which, I have to admit, makes me want to fully read them less.

Rebuttal: From Big Lizards.

Thanks to West for that.
