Michael Steele dropped to his knees before Rush Limbaugh, what?  Twenty-four hours after criticizing him?  And now Bobby “The Exorcist” Jindal wants sloppy seconds:

Jindal also responded to Michael Steele’s recent flap about Limbaugh: “I’m glad he apologized. I think the chairman is a breath of fresh air for the party. As I said before, I think Rush is a leader for many conservatives and says things that people are concerned about.”

“Says things that people are concerned about”? What the fuck does that mean?

Now can we have war crimes prosecutions?

The American Civil Liberties Union has released previously classified excerpts of a government report on harsh interrogation techniques used in Iraq, Afghanistan and Guantanamo Bay. These previously unreported pages detail repeated use of “abusive” behavior, even to the point of prisoner deaths.

The documents, obtained by the ACLU under a Freedom of Information Act request, contain a report by Vice Admiral Albert T. Church, who was tapped to conduct a comprehensive review of Defense Department interrogation operations. Church specifically calls out interrogations at Bagram Air base in Afghanistan as “clearly abusive, and clearly not in keeping with any approved interrogation policy or guidance.”

I know this is what we all surmised, but to see it in print ….

Perhaps it is a good day to blog:

She’s usually one of the most opinionated women in the nation, but Ann Coulter’s going to be keeping her mouth shut for the next few weeks. 

The 46-year-old was forced to get her jaw wired shut after taking a nasty tumble last month, reports the New York Post’s Page Six.

Though she’s on the mend, the injury’s making it difficult for Coulter to record the audio version of her latest tome, The New Ann Coulter.

If Sean Hannity loses his voice it’ll be the best day ever.

So, what’s on Knoxville murderer Jim David Adkisson’s bookshelf? What else?

• Liberalism is a Mental Health Disorder, Michael Savage
• Let Freedom Ring, Sean Hannity
• The O’Reilly Factor, pompous asshole who isn’t Limbaugh

But did he read them? Well, he certainly has the party line down:

Adkisson targeted the church, [Knoxville Police Department Officer Steve] Still wrote in the document obtained by WBIR-TV, Channel 10, “because of its liberal teachings and his belief that all liberals should be killed because they were ruining the country, and that he felt that the Democrats had tied his country’s hands in the war on terror and they had ruined every institution in America with the aid of media outlets.”

But let’s be fair — we all vent sometimes. Surely he didn’t mean it:

Adkisson told Still that “he could not get to the leaders of the liberal movement that he would then target those that had voted them in to office.”

Okay, then. Message received!
