TweetFest: #Gosnell trends as Twitterers demand end to MSM blackout
http://twitter.com/#!/sistertoldjah/status/322686328837922816
Casey Anthony, Jodi Arias, James Holmes, Adam Lanza — the list of “local crime” trials the media spend countless hours reporting and politicizing goes on and on. But the soul-crushing testimony about accused baby murderer Kermit Gosnell and his abortion house of horrors is “a local multiple-murder story … nothing more.”
Reserved media seating at the infanticide trial is nearly empty.

As Ace points out, the media blackout also keeps the horrifying details from the non-activist public. “After all, if the public hears of it, they may make The Wrong Decisions.” Read the whole thing.
Heaven forfend we have a “national conversation” about infanticide.

Bloggers, if you write abt #Gosnell on your sites, pls use the hashtag, so when it’s shared it counts towards trending. Let’s make it happen

Looks like Democratic Rep. Jackie Speier thinks David Brooks is right on. This morning, Speier told MSNBC’s Kristen Welker that the Taliban aren’t as bad as some people (i.e. Republicans) have made them out to be:
http://twitter.com/#!/RepSpeier/status/476420714099376128Transcript (starts around the 4:40 mark):
Let me underscore the term “terrorist.” The Taliban is part of the fabric of Afghanistan. They were part of the leadership of that country before we engaged there. We are now actively attempting to get the Taliban to negotiate with President Karzai and the [Afghani] government, because there will be some cooperation, some level of coordination between the two if that country is going to survive and move forward. So, to say that they are terrorists, at this point, is not necessarily accurate.
The Taliban are just patriotic Afghanis. So stop being so judgmental, you guys, and give ‘em a chance.

Derpitude: ‘Real journalists’ fall for vile Michelle Malkin parody account
http://twitter.com/#!/michellemalkin/status/251754875988344832
A pitiful Michelle Malkin parody account has apparently been floating around Twitter since August of last year. Most likely, its sheer lame-itude is what’s kept it under the radar until today, when it suddenly caught the attention of the illustrious Band of Merry Real Journalists made up of such luminaries as Keith Olbermann, Ana Marie Cox, and David Frum.
There's a Michelle Malkin parody account? With even more parody than the real one? And nobody's sent me the handle? #Harumph
— Keith Olbermann (@KeithOlbermann) September 28, 2012
Behold the kinds of tweets that captivated this trio of tools:
@KeithOlbermann Keith, don't get my blood pressure up. It's Friday. I have an entire weekend of nail-biting paranoia to plan for. Jesus.
— Michelle Malkin (@micheIIemaIkin) September 28, 2012
https://twitter.com/micheIIemaIkin/status/251756510487650304
https://twitter.com/micheIIemaIkin/status/251757188324937728
(The parody account replaced the letter “L” in Michelle’s name with capital “I.”)
Ana Marie Cox, who has a history of opening her mouth about things she hasn’t properly read, gladly retweeted a fake tweet:
RT @MicheIleMaIkin: Libs are using Nickleodeon and Teenage Mutant Liberal Turtles to implant socialism. // Funny because it's true!
— Ana Marie Cox (@anamariecox) September 28, 2012
Mocking Michelle Malkin’s drawing attention to pig Jason Biggs is totally hilarious, see?
Doltish bigot David Frum fell for the same tweet as Cox:
RT @MicheIleMaIkin: Libs are using Nickleodeon and Teenage Mutant Liberal Turtles to implant socialism. Turtles spew hatred and intolerance
— David Frum (@davidfrum) September 28, 2012
One would think that even vapid troglodytes like Cox and Frum would’ve at least been able to put their combined seven brain cells together and figure out that the real Michelle Malkin would never put out anything resembling the garbage in the parody tweets. Common sense eluded them, however. Malkin was disgusted, and she rightly gave them the business:
And @anamariecox @keitholbermann @davidfrum all fell for the fake account and spread the slander against me.
— Michelle Malkin (@michellemalkin) September 28, 2012
Remember, folks. They are #realjournalists and I'm #justablogger
— Michelle Malkin (@michellemalkin) September 28, 2012
And none of them will apologize.
— Michelle Malkin (@michellemalkin) September 28, 2012
And of course no apology from @davidfrum @keitholbermann @anamariecox #realjournalists
— Michelle Malkin (@michellemalkin) September 28, 2012
After learning that the parody account was, in fact, a parody account, Cox continued to make an idiot of herself:
So @michellemalkin may be a fake account (?) but the opinions expressed are, well, I guess we could call them "real"? Truthy at least.
— Ana Marie Cox (@anamariecox) September 28, 2012
Lesson: After Akin, flag-gate, birtherism, Seamus, 47%, I am prepared to believe all kind of crazy shit that conservatives might say.
— Ana Marie Cox (@anamariecox) September 28, 2012
She finally did apologize, but not without slickly qualifying it:
@michellemalkin I'm sorry RT'd without disclaimer that parody account Tweet. You deserve to have your views represented accurately.
— Ana Marie Cox (@anamariecox) September 28, 2012
@michellemalkin I mean, I do find some of your views mockable but you should only be mocked for the ones that are actually yours. I'm sorry.
— Ana Marie Cox (@anamariecox) September 28, 2012
Frum, however, didn’t even attempt a half-hearted fauxpology:
My mistake, that was a parody account. I can't think why I was fooled!
— David Frum (@davidfrum) September 28, 2012
Translation: Michelle Malkin didn’t actually tweet that stuff, but, like, she totally would have, because racist and meanypants and stuff!
Keith Olbermann, who thought the parody account was the bee’s knees, felt that he was the victim in all this, and he demanded that Malkin apologize:
I retweeted nothing from this fake account. You owe me an apology. You are not adult to offer it RT @michellemalkin… http://t.co/NJuRZeUI

This Child Is Literally Me Whenever I Wake Up In The Morning
“I need my goggles! I would like my goggles!”
i will seriously recognize with this particular young boy who can’t find their goggles. Every morning, I misplace my car keys, wallet, or phone, and then believe it is within the last few place I look — precisely where we left it. I have even gone as far as to pull-over privately of this road to search for a missing belonging that has been right beside me personally the complete time.
View as this adorable young boy looks desperately for his goggles. Despite a fun-filled day at the water park, he certainly has actually an instance regarding the Mondays!
