Corner Twofer.

1.
I guess conservatives think this play on words -- a conflation of Jesse Helms and President Inadequate Black Male -- is the height of humor. Surely Obama, too, would have called the Civil Rights Act of 1964 "the single most dangerous piece of legislation ever introduced in the Congress"; tried to stop the Senate from approving Martin Luther King, Jr. Day; supported the apartheid regime of South Africa; and blocked attempts by President Clinton to appoint an African-American judge to the Fourth U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals. Right?

Or not. Then again, Hitler was a liberal because he was a vegetarian, so what do I know?

QOTD from our pal, Peter Wehner:

I thought Ari destroyed Matthews, and did so in a calm, factual, reasoned way.




Yep.
