Matt Drudge is offended by his site being called a "Blog" From
now on whenever anyone refers a story about his site, please refer to it as the "Drudge Blog." May be childish, but so is Drudge.

4. Do you remember when President Clinton was being interviewed
regarding his autobiography? I think it was on 60 Minutes (not sure), but they asked President Clinton how he felt about all the "names" people called him. He stated that he just let it roll off his back, it was just politics, etc. Then they asked him what was the name he had heard that he hated the most. President Clinton then stated that he really disliked the name, "Slick Willy."

Low and behold, the future felon, OxyContin Limbaugh, started his show the next day calling Clinton, Slick Willy, and continued to do so throughout the week's shows and then some. Then the Limbaugh wannabe, Hannity, started his show the same way. They always will refer to President Clinton now as Slick Willy.

I say turnabout is fair play. Of course, Matt Drudge is a nothing compared to Bill Clinton. I cannot wait until someone outs Drudge just like they did Gannon (who, by the way, will be on Bill Mahrs, Real Time, tonight on HBO.

Have a good day ppl.

.... but since he writes his own synopsis of stories, especially developing ones, and said synopsii are pretty much biased by his personal opinions, yeah, it's a blog.

6. Well, it took Drudge 20 minutes to bring up Air America and a skit
declaring gunshots at the President. He claimed the left's media did not cover this at all.

IDIOT! It's not news. Randi apologized and that was it. Now he goes on the airways and brings up the bit; however, he did not connect Randi's name to it. He is restraining himself somewhat; however, he is making fun of Media Matters and calls it a Ping Pong kind of site.

OMG, he thinks Hannity and Colmes debate fairly on Fox. BS.

8. A comedy skit gets his ire up but Congressmen seriously declaring open
season on judges is OK? He is just another "poor me" blogger who feeds off of others hard work and credibility. Hence forth and forever more he shall be known as the "Blogger Sludge, bottom feeder, basement dweller, lie spewing buttboy of the conservative realm."

Lamb was practically frothing at the mouth in his pandering to this guy. Geeze. Fridays are getting so predictable on C-Span.
