Glenn Greenwald on Ann Althouse

[NewKid]

Althouse has been on a roll lately. Greenwald's latest on her op-ed is irresistable. <br><br><!--EZCODE QUOTE START--><blockquote><strong><em>Quote:</em></strong><hr>At the risk of beating a dead horse, there is one other point worth making about the Ann Althouse Op-Ed. In the very first sentence, Althouse criticized Judge Taylor for "referring to [Earl Warren] as 'Justice Warren,' not 'Chief Justice Warren,' as if she wanted to spotlight her carelessness." The day before, Althouse created an entire post on her blog with the exclusive purpose of making this same "point" ("How can you forget to call him Chief Justice?").<br><br><br>But Madison Guy points to another Op-Ed written by Althouse in the NYT back in 2005, the purpose of which was to defend the Sam Alito nomination. To do so, Althouse said this: "Yet while Justice Burger remained conservative, Justice Blackmun went on to write the opinion legalizing abortion in Roe v. Wade and, eventually, to vote consistently with the liberal justices." As Madison Guy notes: "that would be Chief Justice Warren Burger, right?"<hr></blockquote><!--EZCODE QUOTE END--><br><br><!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://glenngreenwald.blogspot.com/2006/08/more-support-for-john-deans-thesis.html" target="top">glenngreenwald.blogspot.com/2006/08/more-support-for-john-deans-thesis.html</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--><br><br>Let us not forget this is the same woman who had this to say about Kevin Barrett and 9-11:<br><br><!--EZCODE QUOTE START--><blockquote><strong><em>Quote:</em></strong><hr>Barrett then tries to lay out the details of the theory. The word "thermate" comes out of his mouth. (It's supposed to be "thermite," but why be precise?) [ADDED: Apparently, there is something called "thermate," which, like thermite, has a role in the conspiracy theory.]<hr></blockquote><!--EZCODE QUOTE END--><br><br><!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://althouse.blogspot.com/2006/07/uw-911-denialist-appears-on-hannity.html" target="top">althouse.blogspot.com/2006/07/uw-911-denialist-appears-on-hannity.html</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--><br><br>Sometimes you almost think this stuff is a parody. <br><br><!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://altmouse.blogspot.com/" target="top">altmouse.blogspot.com/</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--><br><br><br> <p></p><i></i>
