strong>Q.</strong><strong> Andy Richter beat both you and Wolf Blitzer in a recent “Celebrity Jeopardy” match. You were formidable, but Blitzer wound up in the red. What happened? </strong> <strong> A. </strong>I really feel like I need to defend poor Wolf. He really took a rap for that. It really is about the buzzer. I know it’s a cliche,...

Talking to CNN's Wolf Blitzer, HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius actually blamed George W. Bush for the panel that called for changes in mammography standards. What won't these people blame on him? Will they ever take responsibility for what happens?

Re: the Sarah Palin Newsweek cover coverage, Atrios notes : Of the CNN piece Digby talks about , Wolf Blitzer twittered : CNN Jessica Yellin did a very good report in SitRoom on Sarah Palin and her sexuality -- the fact that she's good looking. Did you see it? Sweet Jeebus. That would be the CNN piece, btw, in which Yellin compliments Palin for "show[ing] her gams" and "openly embrac[ing]...

Sarah Palin’s book is finally out, if you live in fly-over country she may soon be hawking it at a bookstore near you. Myself, I’m not interested in her happy bullshit, or whatever her ghostwriter has to say. I just want to point out that, 1.25 million dollar advance notwithstanding, it’s common for books by celebutards to be best-sellers and remaindered at the same time. Amazon has...

I knew the state-owned Canadian socialism-reliant CBC’s decision to pretend they’re CNN “Canada” and try to mimic Wolf Blitzer on CNN’s “The Situation Room”, by making all their models — oopsie — clerics — oopsie — news anchors stand up to deliver the news…. would cause acid reflux sooner or later. Sooner! It’s the hand...

by Chris Edelson It's easy to praise constitutional rights in the abstract, to declare that you are a believer in free speech, the right to trial, the prohibition against cruel and unusual punishments when you're speaking only in general terms.
