Mickey Kaus Hits Two Four-Baggers

Mickey Kaus defrocks the leftist high priests in a more than usually irreverent fisking/frisking of HuffnPuff hilarity.

Here's Mickey taking the Halloween outfit off another far-left fright clown:

Max Blumenthal's piece on the right-wing network behind The Path to 9/11 will go right into the press kits of David Horowitz and the conservative Liberty Film Foundation. (Who knew their blog was "heavily trafficked"! Donors will be pleased.) ... P.S.: I assume Blumenthal's right and Path, even with edits, isn't at all a neutral look at pre-9/11 anti-terrorist efforts. Still, are you worried about an "emerging network of right-wing people burrowing into the film industry with ulterior sectarian politican and religious agendas"? Maybe I'm complacent about the threat, but isn't that a little like worrying about the growing anti-Zionist foothold at The New Republic? If you put Hollywoods's entire network of right wing people in David Horowitz's living room, you wouldn't have much trouble getting to the hors d'oeuvre tray. If you tried to put Hollywood's network of left wing people in the Los Angeles Convention Center, the fire marshal would close it down.

But wait, there's more! Mickey also takes "shortsighted party hack" Pelosi behind the woodshed for another of her airhead escapades, opposing Arnold's redistricting.

Re: Cake-baking: Alert reader T.F. asks:

Have you already mentioned that if Schwarzenegger's redistricting had passed, the cake would be baked because the Dems would pick up at least five seats in California instead of zero? [Emphasis added]

No, I don't think I have mentioned that. ... P.S.: At least Nancy "I'm-going-to-become-Speaker" Pelosi wasn't such a shortsighted party hack that she raised money to defeat the measure that would have gotten her party a third of the seats it needs.

Pelosi is the Emily Litella of the Three Stooge/Keystone Cop troika atop the tottering Dem political [inverted?] pyramid. Hermaphroditic Reid and the Deaniac are in good company with "Never Mind" ditz-of-the-House Nancy.

I hope she becomes Speaker, because if past is prologue, she will futz up things so badly for the Dems that the House will relapse into Repub control in '08.
