Like, Sarah Palin’s.
AllahP has written about this [and follow his link; he has some great vid of Palin discussing the oil spill, and the need for executive leadership on energy], as have Insty (in passing), and Tigerhawk. T-Hawk is quite quotable, so here goes:
Sarah Palin’s breasts are suddenly the objects of great interest on [...]

. . . which has finally decided to speak out:
“Powerful Sexual Signals???”
Or just irresistible tractor beams emanating from Me?
You know, I’m getting just a bit tired of this.
I do all the hard work, she gets all the credit. If these people would just keep their tinfoil hats on, they’d be safe. After all, I’m a [...]

Stacy McCain and Dan Riehl are all over the Jesse Griffin story like ecru on stone-ground grits.
Oh—and here’s rumor-monger Jesse Griffin:
[F]or future reference if you think an allegation or rumor is incorrect then just wait it out and make fun of the person after it proves to be false. That keeps your integrity [...]

Stacy and Ace have apparently made up, and are sending each other electronic flowers in the form of links at the tops of their pages. It’s terribly sweet. From Acey’s sidebar:
The Rest of McCain’s Post: No chumming me; actually, pretty sensible
They’ve resumed those trips to the mountains together as well. Fishing, they say.
Jimmie’s got a [...]

And it braids together a few conflicts:
1) The optimists versus the pessimists.
2) The Christians versus the atheists/agnostics.
3) Those who want to tell the truth, versus those who are concerned that perception might become reality, and therefore recommend that when we are faced with unpleasant truths we should try to ignore them.
4) Those who think that [...]

May I get you some more ice?
No, really: I feel dreadful about this. I’m writing a tragedy based on Letterman’s career right now: it’s sort of a cross between King Lear and Bozo the Clown.

1) When you double-checked about Bristol Palin’s age, how exactly did you phrase that question?—”Um, please confirm the age of Governor Palin’s oldest child. Not the one who’s visiting this city, but the eldest.” Um, I’ve been a fact-checker. We always give as much data as we can. I’m hard-pressed as to how he managed [...]

Okay. I’ll watch the clips on YouTube late tonight or early tomorrow, and if he isn’t winking constantly or holding his fingers, crossed, behind his back, that will likely be the end of it for me as well.
Though I’m not sure I’ll ever be able to gin up much enthusiasm for his advertisers after [...]

Here. “You don’t make jokes; you hide behind them.”
I get the feeling Rachel would like to see a real apology from Letterboy, too. I’ve been told we shouldn’t hold our breath, so in the meantime I’m changing my buying habits to be sure I’m not supporting Johnson & Johnson, T-Mobile, Mars Candy, Best Western, or [...]

Hm. How funny. Nothing about the Letterman/CBS scandal at the company’s corporate site, or on its blog, either. But HillBuzz has a thing or two to say about Johnson & Johnson.
Here are the Johnson & Johnson product lines:
Acuvue • Actifed • Ambi • Aveeno • Band-Aid • Benadryl • Bengay • Benylin • Caladryl [...]

. . . is over at HillBuzz
Tell the following four “family-friendly” companies you will no longer be patronizing them as long as they continue to advertise on Letterman or CBS (yes: it counts if the company buys a banner ad and CBS places that ad on the Letterman pages within its website):
• Mars Candy
• The [...]

There’s a nice summary of the situation here that includes a link to my “American Sharia” concept, and to the suggestion of Brent Bozell at the Media Research Center that Letterman “apologize like a real man.”
Real the Cold Fury entry; it’s a nice formulation of why this is important, even if sexism isn’t normally at [...]

Via Fausta.
And, from the indispensable Carol of No Sheeples Here, a new battle flag:
Sebastian Gray of HillBuzz tells us how it’s done.
It sounds like Letterboy just got mixed up about which hillbilly slime in the Palin clan was which, so the joke was only based on the fact that the females in that family [...]

AllahPundit asks the quesiton.
I’m quite sure he will—certainly, but husband has no doubt that he will—but I’m content to wait till it’s on You Tube, and ratchet up my outreach to Dave’s advertisers accordingly. The notes I’ve composed to them are, so far, profanity-free. That may change.
This man is radioactive, and I’ve got no [...]
