Highlights, such as they are since you have to take what you can get from The Corner, as they watch The Clenis take his whacks:
Finger Action? [Kathryn Jean Lopez]
An email: Anyone else notice how whenever Bill Clinton says something positive about Obama, he points his finger in the exact same way he did when he said, “I did not have sexual relations with that woman…”? 08/27 09:40 PM
Oh that K-Lo! It always about the dick.
Overall… [Jonah Goldberg]
It was the best speech of the convention so far, though that’s not as high a bar as the Obama folks would probably like. Still, it was effective, supportive and vastly better delivered than his wife’s speech the night before. 08/27 09:38 PM
Overall…that first sentence makes no sense. Don’t they have editors at NR-oh nevermind.
Giving Bill His Due [Kathleen Parker]
No one speaks extemporaneously the way he can. No one has ever mined the autism vote as seamlessly. 08/27 09:31 PM
The "autism vote"? Really? Is that supposed to be…what? Funny? Mysterious? Pithy? Tourettes?
Re: The Example of Our Power [Andy McCarthy]
If Clinton really thought "the power of our example" was paramount, he’d be too ashamed to be seen in public. We’ve seen the power of his example in how he conducted himself as president, and we’ve seen the example of his power in what he did to get away with it. It’s a silly phrase only a speechwriter could love in any event, but this is not the right speaker to deliver it. 08/27 09:42 PM
Oh that Andy! It’s always about the dick.
By the way, I never want to see "Finger Action?" and "Kathryn Jean Lopez" in the same line ever again.
Just…No.

I will say right now that, should Mitt Romney be selected by McCain, we will witness the first keygasm in internets history, as stroked out by K-Lo.
It will not be a pretty sight.
God, why can’t they ever just say “I got nothin’” and sign off?
It’s the question mark that makes it so horrible. The only possible thing worse would be if she didn’t post anything after the title, except maybe her cell number.
Poor Sister KJ-Lo, she’s always left sitting at the table while her glamorous girlfriends make other arrangements to get home.
Still, I’d tumble with her, really, I would. She’s a healthy ol’ girl just itching to find out if reverse cowboy really means someone loves the Redskins.
Okay. Go to your room until you sober up.
Give me a break; they act like the Clenis has total liberal cooties when he was really a centrist with a bit of rightward tilt (hello welfare reform!) tossed in for spice. I guess it comes down to whatever 10 lb. fantasy they can pound into their 5lb narrative.
This ignores the fact that the rest of the world looked on in bemusement as the Lewinsky scandal and impeachment proceedings happened.
Indeed; the Europeans thought we were a bunch of prudish pecksniffs. We still are, unless you’re a wide stance Rethug. I’m heading to Europe in 2 weeks; I can’t decide whether to go as a Canadian or just let out a few “ya’all’s” and see what happens.
I lubs me some KJ-Lo, but I’s gotta say, this string from Wonkette is what I wish the talking heads (not the cool ones, yo) sounded like.

Kathleen Parker is that horrible neighbor lady who pretends to be all normal and nice and then suddenly throws out the most unbelievably prejudiced ugliness you’ve ever heard, without even bothering to wipe the fake coffeeklatsch smile off her face. She’s every quietly vicious suburban thug who ever ran the PTA.
Kathleen Parker seems to have overlooked the fact that there are a lot of people who fall within the autism continuum who know a hell of a lot more about computers than she does. Wonder how many e-mails it would take to totally crash her mailbox?
“By the way, I never want to see “Finger Action?” and “Kathryn Jean Lopez” in the same line ever again.
Just…No.”
I just threw up a little in my mouth.
Tbogg, thanks for trolling the swamp, so we don’t have to.
“Finger Action”? Eeeeewwww! Not with a cyborg arm remote-controlled over the internet… from Mars.
“Autism vote?” So, so, so very many people on the autism spectrum have IQs in the top percentiles of this nation. More the teh stupid showing through from the wingnut keyboard pounders.
Oops… typing too fast meant to say: more of teh stupid…. sheesh. What’s a mother to do?
I’m going to give K-Lo a pass on the “finger” comment, since fingers are very much on her mind (and other places) with the prospect that Mittens is back on center stage. Oh, crap, Not really. STFU you worthless hag.
Heh, now that’s funny . . .
The autism thing is positively Muir-ish in it’s Dadaist inanity.
