[...] Glenn Greenwald has a history of redefining terms to suit whatever argument he is making at the moment. This is not unusual – for a liberal. Language and definitions acquire a certain elasticity when in the expert hands of liberal wordsmiths like Greenwald. Hence, his idea of just what constitutes “hate speech” could very well mean one thing in one context and an entirely different thing in another. Would Alex Pareene writing at Wonkette referring to Malkin’s “ping pong balls” cross Greenwald’s threshold of hate speech? Since he failed to take that site to task for their infamy, one would have to assume that particular racist reference gets a pass from the New York Times Best Selling Author as, I imgaine, would other bigoted comments on blog posts directed toward Malkin [...]

In defense of crust

This user does appear to follow Greenwald (ie. probably a reader), but does not seem to be particularly ideological wrt wikipedia. The edits I have seen for Glenn Reynolds and Greg Mankiw, for example, though perhaps not always sympathetic, stick to the truth and appear to me to be a genuine attempt to describe things factually.

Proud to Be a Chickenhawk

Jeff Jacoby in the Boston Globe attacked the use of the epithet “chicken hawk.” But is it really an insult?

That contemptable fool will not be criticized in public by his peers. They only do that to conservatives. But his hysteria and dishonesty doubtless will make the rounds of the rumor mill and may do serious damage to his reputation.

Thanks for your attention.

â€œWhen I use a word,â€ Humpty Dumpty said, in rather a scornful tone, â€œit means just what I choose it to meanâ€”neither more nor less.â€ “The question is,â€ said Alice, â€œwhether you can make words mean so many different things.â€ â€œThe question is,â€ said Humpty Dumpty, â€œwhich is to be masterâ€”thatâ€™s all.â€

Using the left’s logic, TBogg and Greenwald(o) and his army of sock puppets cannot be against the Iraq war as they are chicken doves. They have never been human shields for Saddam in the early days of OEF, so their imagined air of superiority have dissapated as fast as a fart in a windtunnel.

Does being on a navy ship that launched numerous tomahawk missiles during the beginning of OEF qualify me as a “chickenhawk” by the way? Or getting my request to go boots to the ground in Iraq qualify me?
