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.

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!!"

From Archimedes: Democrats are really now arguing that it's time to open the Big Tent to Nazis:
At Insty:

How it's going: How 'Big Tent' Are Democrats Willing to Go? Many in the party say it needs a wider range of candidates to run. Does that include people with Nazi tattoos?

Senator Martin Heinrich of New Mexico said, "Graham has made a lot of mistakes in his life. He's had a very long journey to the place where he is today, but he's owned those mistakes, owned up to them, and he's evolved." Khanna called the tattoo "horrendous," but said: "Do we want our political governing class to be like the classmates I had at Yale Law School, some of them who dreamed of being president of the United States from the age of twelve?" He continued, "Or do we want normal people also having a chance at these offices?"

--The Atlantic, today. Have they SEEN the people who vote for them?
Link to Ed Driscoll's post here
Black Conservative Perspective says there's a "Woke Civil War" going on in the left over this Nazi, with Race Marxists -- mostly black -- absolutely determined to cancel him, while the straight-up Communists -- mostly white rich-bitch nepo babies -- are fighting like hell for him. As many have noted: Communists are always willing to make a tactical alliance with Nazis. (And, of course, Communists are just totalitarian socialists with an internationalist foreign policy, while Nazis are totalitarian socialists with a nationalist foreign policy. They're two anti-human peas in a pod.)
The white communists are fighting hard for this guy because he is an open, avowed communist, and they think his completely-fake "normal blue-collar guy" persona can be used to do what they cannot do, sell communism to the working class.

I heard that his solo album, back when each member of KISS cut their own record, was pretty good.
Here's that solo album, from 1978. Sounds a bit like The Sweet.
