Unbelievable: Mark Halperin Distorts to Help Kerry

You remember him, right? He's the guy who thinks ABCNews should give Kerry a pass on his distortions, while holding Bush strictly to account.

Well, it seems he's a past-master at distorting himself. He takes a quote of Arnold Schwarzenegger's, in which Arnold criticizes both candidates but hits Kerry more sharply, and turns it into a pro-Kerry quote by Dowdification.

You will not believe this. You. Will. Not. Believe This.

Thanks to Physics Geek, who also links Michael Moore's hard-hitting "documentary" on the so-called "Fellowship" of the Ring.

Fellowship? Hah! A phony fellowship, a fellowship of the bribed and coerced.

To his credit - he's fixed it and apologized.

Ummmm... how the fuck did it happen in the first place?

I closed the barn door once after the horse got out. Instantly, the horse reappeard inside the barn.

amazing. simply amazing.

Phil,

I agree they (ABC corporately, not Halperin individually) have fixed it. HOWEVER, I do not see any apology on The Note page. Did I miss it somewhere? If so, please post link.

Thanks,

Steve C.

Steve C, I was following this at another site, saw someone posts a comment that they had corrected it and apologized. I took a quick look and say evidence they had made a change, and accepted that there was an apology. If they haven't apologized, then, uh, I apologize for misleading.

Even with the correction, it deserves opprobrium. It sure doesn't look like an innocent mistake. A competent 12 year old would read the original quote and realize it wasn't the same as the one reported.

I just don;t want anyone to email them as if it hasn't yet been fixed.

Phil

One of my co-workers has predicted, by the time I'm old and senile, that I will have been so angry over crap like this that he can almost hear me calling out to my daughter, "Misty, bring me my shotgun!!"

Oh, and "Get off my grass, you damned kids!!"

Lost Seventies Mystery Click: The Darkest Song Ever Recorded?
I think Professor of Rock (on YouTube) claimed this song was so upsetting that people used to pull over to the side of the road when it came on the radio. It's about a fatal plane crash, but obviously it suggests a fatal car crash too, which could wig out a driver.
It's like one of those nasty 70s anti-war body horror movies. Not for the squeamish. I'm not even going to post the lyrics because they're upsetting too.
Compilation of Naked Gun intros
That theme gets me charged.
Compilation of all Police Squad! openings. They're all the same except for the last few seconds where they reveal the Special Guest Star and the title(s).
Pitch Meeting: Amazon's new, terrible War of the Worlds
I don't know why these tech monopolists spend so much money on ripoff/sequel/remake slop. I like popcorn entertainment but is it legally required to be terrible?
Lost 90s Mystery Click: College Radio Edition
Well you look fantastic in your cast-off casket
At least the thing still runs
This nine to five bullshit don't let you forget
Whose suicide you're on.

Also:
You wax poetic about things pathetic
As long as you look so cute
Believe these hills are starting to roll
Believe these stars are starting to shoot

Forgotten 80s Mystery Click: Garrett's Favorite Band Edition
Everybody wants you
Everybody wants your love
I'd just like to make you mine, all mine
I'm frankly surprised the title is 107 Days. I would have thought it would be:

Days Are Important: The Amount of Days Was a Number and That Number Was 100 Plus 7 Which is 107. 107. One Hundred and Seven. It's a Memoir and Memoirs are About Remembering Things Because Remembering Things is Good. Not Bad. Good. Memoir. A Memoir. Like a Reservoir But With Memory. We Have to Let it Flow. We Have to Let It Flow Into the Reservoir of Our Mind and Our Heart. Our Heart Which is the Beating Heart of Not Just Our Blood, But Our Progress. And Our People. And Democracy. The End.

Soft weak poop from the early 80s Mystery Click
I never liked this song, but it is memorable. In a weak, annoying way.
The kid's in shock up and down the block
The folks are home playing beat the clock
Down at the golden cup
They set the young ones up
Under the neon light
Selling day for night
It's alright
Nobody rides for free (nobody, nobody)
Nobody gets it like they want it to be (nobody, nobody)
Nobody hands you any guarantee (nobody, nobody)
Nobody

Former CIA operative John Kiriakou talks with Matt Taibbi about the Brennan/Comey Coup
Both guys are old liberals, maybe even of the far-left variety, and both are appalled by the Democrat/Deep State coup against the US. Kiriakou says that CIA officers were legally obligated to report to the Inspector General John Brennan's repeated overruling of actual intelligence to encode his partisan conspiracy theories into US intel product, but of course they didn't.
