Oh great Richard (Bigot) Cohen article leads with. I don’t want to compare president Bush to a Nazi but lets compare them to the Nazi’s?

6:41 a.m. I’m not an ends justify the means guy either, I just question if the means is torture.

6:42 a.m. Pat says if the next hit comes without the info, blame Obama, Joe says blame Dana Priest.

6:43 a.m. The LA times hits the president for long range damage.

6:45 a.m. Pat talks about a contrition tour. The Joe team forgets that this stuff is planed long ahead.

6:46 a.m. They show the diplomatic handshake.

6:51 a.m. The Leno thing was funny.

7:02 a.m. The talk about the plane scare and have the Bloomberg press conference.

7:07 a.m. You know Todd DOES look like a young Lenin

7:09 a.m. They are in some serious damage control at the Whitehouse over the planes. Gibbs is floundering on the stage.

7:12 a.m. Mexico doesn’t believe their government as opposed to here? Do I believe the Obama administration on stuff? I think it’s a question on what kind of stuff they would lie about.

7:15 a.m. The meeting between the “progressive caucus” and the president should be interesting. Will he be all talk with them or no?

7:29 a.m. He’s fantastic says Clyburn. Sounds like a Rotman’s commercial.

7:31 a.m. We will use he same methods if people don’t do what we want.

7:41 a.m. It sounds like the administration is going to play financial games, surprise surprise surprise see 7:12 a.m.

7:55 a.m. Shelby says its going to get worse before it gets better.

7:56 a.m. Joe: “Conservatives don’t need the republican party as much as the republican party needs conservatives.”

8:01 a.m. Here is a shot of NYC without planes buzzing it.

8:06 a.m. Mika is just fun isn’t she?

8:09 a.m. Robinson has a great point about the dangers of an epidemic but why couldn’t it be used as a terror weapon? Remember 90% of the indigenous deaths in the Americas during the 1500’s were by smallpox and other disease, not by conquistadors.

8:19 a.m. This is steamroller stuff.

8:40 a.m. Bob Dylan…borrrrring

8:53 a.m. Is Courtney’s day off a coincidence?

8:58 a.m. I learned that Joe has a new book. I didn’t know what I wanted to learn, that is why Hazlett wrote what she wrote.

Amazing!

The corner notices some interesting wordplay on the MSNBC site in a story by Courtney Hazlett:

There’s been plenty of speculation that Levi Johnston, the father of Tripp, Sarah Palin’s first acknowledged grandchild, has been giving interviews to the likes of Larry King and Tyra Banks so that he can land an endorsement or modeling deal.

The line has been rather sloppily removed from the main MSNBC site but it still lives on via sites that syndicated it and haven’t edited the copy, such as here here and here.

Now unless Miss Hazlett has been drinking Andrew Sullivan’s koolaid I think an explanation is in order; what made her decide on that word when this was written? What evidence if any did you have to suggest that there is another grandchild out there. This should be done preferably on Morning Joe.

Because you can have so much fun if you choose to add the word “acknowledged” to any conversation concerning Courtney Hazlett. The mind boggles! Particularly during the morning joe liveblogging.

Mary Ann Glendon showed that you can be a winner without getting a medal.

Miss California Carrie Prejean proves that just because you wear a bikini doesn’t mean you can’t defend your faith:

Miss California Carrie Prejean, who became the bombshell of the Miss USA pageant by saying gay couples should not be allowed to marry, said Sunday that her state sponsors urged her to apologize afterward but she rejected the advice.

Prejean, 21, said officials from the Miss California USA pageant were worried that her comments would cost their contest financial backing and tried to prepare her for a string of post-pageant media interviews by discouraging her from discussing her religious beliefs.

After all we can’t have people talking about her faith, but Miss California nixed that:

If anything, Prejean has solidified her stance in the last week. McPherson, who preaches against homosexuality, has been acting as her adviser and encouraging her to use her newfound fame to persuade other evangelical Christians to share their views, even if they are unpopular.

“I learned that God has a bigger crown than any man can give you,” she said.

Hotair comments:

You need to not talk about your faith. For those who think of beauty pageants as anachronisms for young women in an era of liberation, doesn’t this speak volumes about the attitudes of the organizers? Just shut up and look pretty, even if people are attacking you.

I am really surprised that more feminists are not defending her. Mika seems to be but that’s all I’ve heard on the left. Is it the religious faith? Or is it a question of Sex, that is the “exploitative nature” of beauty patients, too much worry about being sexy on film to gain the notice? Who knows?

If her popularity continues you should expect to see photoshoped Miss California sex photos and a Larry Flynt XXX parody movie any day now…

…and if the combination of words doesn’t cause tons of hits to this post nothing will (:c)
