Let me get right wing punditry's arguments straight here. It's right and good to fire Dave Weigel from the Washington Post for making private criticisms of a single individual who had personally fucked him over, so long as the individual insulted was conservative. But it's wrong to fire Juan Williams for making public statements implying that millions of people who are innocent of any crimes are potential terrorists because they share a faith that's different from most of conservative America?

I was going to post on the newest fucked up revelations about the Sharron Angle campaign, but right now I'm so fucking pissed about this whole situation with Dave Weigel resigning and Ezra Klein shutting down Journolist, I'm going to post on that instead. My thoughts are scattershot, so instead of even attempting to flow them together, I'm just going with old-fashioned numbering.
