Miscellanea: Dissecting Mr. Chomsky Edition

Good conversation on one Noam Chomsky (maybe you've heard of him) at David Horowtiz's FrontPage Magazine (hat tip to Diary of an Anti-Chomskyite)...

The catastrophically horrible Maureen Dowd weighs in on the Lawrence Summers affair (and somehow confuses his statement with a commentary on attractiveness). Dowd tries to show how judging a woman by her looks is wrong by judging a man on how he looks (???!!!). Dowd also asks how Summers ever got to be the President of Harvard, when the real question on America's mind is how the hell Maureen Dowd got a newspaper column. Those must be some mighty incriminating photos you have there, MoDo. Whatever her point is eludes me. Try to find out for yourself, if you can stand it (of course, the Daily Kos is recommending it, and not for its comedy value)...

Ed Driscoll does a fine job rounding up some required reading on liberalism and its discontents...

Commonwealth Conservative picks up on the Virginia GOP's response to Howard Dean's racial slur...

Dean is sure to be in even MORE hot water after this...

A very interesting poll of attendees at CPAC on presidential preferences is up at Patrick Ruffini's blog (Hillary leads the Dems by a WIDE margin, Giuliani over Rice by a single percentage point for the Elephants)...

Remember the infamous John Kerry Meet the Press snoozer in the aftermath of the Iraqi elections? Wuzzadem has the transcript from the commercial breaks...

ScrappleFace has the latest Lawrence Summers statement...

Frank J tells the dark history of blogging (hat tip to the wonderful bebere)...
