Rob McKenna: Josh Feit and Erica Barnett Are Not Journalists.
Mommy, it's NOT FAIR! Suzy's doing the EXACT SAME THING! She shouldn't get any dessert either!
Seriously, can't you understand that you don't get to have things both ways? You're a polemicist, which, whatever, go with God, but stop pretending to be something else. Stop being bad for America. Please.

About That PAC I Allegedly Run.
I know! I hate it when I'm listed as the current "campaign manager/media contact" for an political action committee that I haven't though about in literally years! It's clear that you believe you're God's gift to political journalism. The unfortunate thing is that your self-aggrandizing rhetoric has others (albeit people who think they're too smart to read anything but Slog) believing it too.

What the McKenna Campaign Talks About When It Talks About The Stranger.
He's got a point. If I was a Republican candidate and Goldy was 'covering' my campaign, I wouldn't let his hacky ass onto my press calls either. Unfortunately, with a guy like that on staff, the rest of your reporters (like the excellent Paul Constant and yourself) are exposed to charges of also being terrible hacks, which if course they (and you) are not. Bummer.

The Ron Paul ReLOVEution Is Well and Truly Over.
Note how a visibly excited Hannity adjusts his American flag lapel pin just as he's asking whether Paul has first cleared the endorsement with his father (at 0:35). Hannity's erogenous zone, right?! He's all like, "This-is-so-HOT-I-can't-have-to-ugh-oh--my-yes--touch-the-American flag-lapel-pin! OH GOD YES!"
