Best in Blog: 26 June 2009
Sure, Michael Jackson's brilliance changed music, as everyone who's ever moonwalked, breakdanced, or lugged a boom box to school to play "Thriller" during recess knows. But now the recently departed King of Pop is also changing the weekend news arc. Will this be the last we hear of Iran from the MSM?
Our Friday faves:
1) Guess Who's Selling Wall Street's Bull?
Hint: He was a Bush aide who cooked up a phony pitch for the Iraq War. Read more.
Midwestern Congressman Collin Peterson introduces the week's worst amendment to the Waxman-Markey climate bill. Read more.
3) BK's New BJ Ad, Now With More Ick Factor
Have you seen the burger-as-blow-job Burger King ad just that burst onto the scene? Here it is.
Does Mother Jones have no
Does Mother Jones have no shame? Do you Laura? First you hijack Drum's blog which in the past at Washington Monthly was considered a crime against the blogosphere. It's bullshit, but I suppose part of his paycheck he is forced to put up with it.
And now, just wtf does Michael Jackson have to do with your post? You are shameless exploiting him just as everyone else is. You are pimping his name to sell MoJo and its ads.
There was a time when Mojo would have stood against this sort of crap.
(And we know you are deleting comments opposed to these blog posts of yours.)
Michael Jackson
managed to sell disco in the 80's. Is that what passes for brilliant these days?
