Irony Meter Plummets from Local Bridge


Foul play suspected.

When I chanced to read this sentence by Andrew Sullivan about his noble indifference to the media's frantic fixation with the Anthony Weiner Affair("The Bruce-Partington Pants"? "The Mound of the Baskervilles"? I'm still working on it)...

Readers may be relieved - or crushed - by the Dish's indifference to the fantastic mystery tour that has consumed the blogosphere for days now. But if you want the full details on how a yFrog can be hacked,

...it came to me as if in a vision that the hilarity of the staggering obliviousness that undergirds Mr. Sullivan's statement of principle really deserved a certain amount of dramatic illustration.

Here then, some screen shots gleaned from a single day of "Daily Dish" posting...

In other words,
Spam, Spam, Spam, Spam,
Spam, Spam, Spam, Spam,
Lovely Spam
Wonderful Spam...




Meanwhile, on the other side of town, Blue Gal is handing out free fundraiser letter-writing lessons to the DNCC.

Short, clear and to-the-point. I especially like "...hand the GOP their balls on a spoon." -- I may have to add that to my email autoreply signature block.

I disagree. Palin is news and should be covered thoroughly. Weiner-Gate is amusing but trivial.
