If Karl Rove merely tweeted “Just took a crap,” he’d tag it with #TCOT. Top Crapper On Twitter.

Frank Gaffney declares the North American Union (a la European Union) is real. OK then.

Michelle Malkin hates kids and spends her day trying to kill the effort to host the 2016 Olympics in the U.S.

Glenn Beck dons his Pharisee hat.

Brian Darling at Red State thinks he is a Constitutional scholar and an expert on Bill of Attainder. Instead, he proves he is a moron.

John Hinderaker wants Liz Cheney to run for president. So does The New York Times.

Dana Perino really, really believes Republicans have super duper ideas that the American public is just going to love.

Mike Huckabee manages to contain his inner terrorist and promotes dumping the United Nations, lock, stock, and barrel, into the East River.

There, that ought to be a good start.

I watched Glenn Beck’s show yesterday for two reasons: 1) I had never watched an entire show, and 2) I wanted to see the effect Color of Change’s campaign to get advertisers to withdraw from Beck’s show. I recognize I watched only one show and it’s anything but scientific, but the impact was remarkable and can hardly be considered coincidental.

As I said it’s obvious advertisers have dropped Beck, but it really stands out when compared to Hardball (MSNBC), which runs in the same time slot but has maybe one-third the viewers that Beck has.

I noted every advertiser and they are listed in order of airing. Just marvel at the stark difference between the two, especially the nationally recognized names (or lack of).

One fact seems to summarize Fox’s woeful lack of ad revenue: running public service ads during Fox’s show that has the most viewers rather than at 2:00 or 3:00 A.M.

Michelle Malkin tweets that two million teabaggers attended the Moran March on Washington, D.C. today.

But that appears to be Malkin Moran Math because the District of Columbia Fire Department disagrees with her.  They estimated the “teeny, tiny fringe” to be more like 60,000 – 75,000.

Late Update: Politifact says claims by Malkin et al. are deserving of a Pants On Fire Liar rating.

Good grief. Cynthia Tucker of the Atlanta Constitution-Journal posits “John McCain could be the Senate’s new Ted Kennedy.” That has to be the most far-fetched thing I’ve ever heard her say, but then again she’s not someone I follow regularly. That pretty much explains, I guess, why I haven’t followed her.
