The Central Intelligence Agency is a fundamentally lawless organization that secretly influences events around the globe on behalf of the U.S. It turns out Obama has deployed its agents to Libya, and for some reason liberals are up in arms about it.
Superstar blogger (and former New Republic editor) Andrew Sullivan is leaving The Atlantic in April and heading to Newsweek/The Daily Beast, where he will start a blog (and, presumably, print the entire thing out for Tina Brown every day).
This morning President Obama nominated Solicitor General Elena Kagan to be on the Supreme Court. But few people are talking about her qualifications. They only want to know if she's into the ladies. Let's look at the facts, shall we?
New revelations of child molestation by Catholic priests, and the Pope's indifference, have his critics and defenders locked in a holy war of words. Some anticipate his downfall. Others see a secularist smear campaign. Here's your guide to the controversy.
The Vatican is under fire for issuing statements that conflict with facts in a case involving a child molesting priest and the future Pope Benedict XVI in Germany in the 80's. Things aren't looking good for the Pope these days.
The Atlantic's "Voices" have escaped the identity-annihilating redesign that ran all of them except Andrew Sullivan through a meat-grinder and extruded a uniform paste of Grade A content. After much protest, their "personal" blogs have been restored! [The Atlantic]
What is a "blogger"? A number of famous bloggers at the Atlantic are getting introspective now that a fancy redesign has assimilated them all (except Andrew Sullivan) into a faceless system of channels and tag pages.
Uh oh! Former New Republic editor Andrew Sullivan posted a quote about The New Republic on his blog, without context. Time for a 4,300-word essay on how he hates the Jews!
Ever notice how Atlantic bloggers Jeffrey Goldberg and Andrew Sullivan shill compulsively for their magazine—the print edition of their magazine, they are quick to point out, only $14.95/year? It's like Newsies, but with bloggers instead of grubby paperboys.
Matthews is one of the nation's chief practitioners of the narrative-constructing outrage-bait political journalism that Politico has perfected into a foul art, and he is one of the nation's chief distributors of its wares. In fact, he already knew the answer to his questions: It was provided by Newsweek's Mike…
You were maybe too busy opening presents or seeing It's Complicated and eating Chinese food to read Andrew Sullivan this weekend, but you have probably heard that something is up in Iran.
Sarah Palin writing a book was asking for trouble. Here it is. McCain campaign emails have leaked, and they're completely damning to the validity of the book's narrative. Involved: the "whack" Saturday Night Live, radio pranks, and McCain's campaign manager.
Our favorite gay, British, libertarian-conservative High Ganja Priest of Political Commentary, The Atlantic's marathon Daily Dish blogger (and lovah) Andrew Sullivan, is calling out Sarah Palin. For what, this time? For reading his blog, son. SHOTS FIRED. This shit's gangsta:
Well, that happens once every hour or so. But this time he's angry at Anita Dunn, the mean White House Communications Director who hates Glenn Beck and loves Chairman Mao.
Once in a great while, ideological opponents find themselves on the same side of a debate. And, though both parties find one another repulsive, that's what's happening, however tenuously, with Andrew Sullivan and those "God Hates Fags" crazies.
Who doesn't love it when Andrew Sullivan gets all oversharey? One minute he's neck-deep in a theological discussion of morality and Darwinism, the next he's remembering a blissful twelve-hour fuck session.
As we explained in August, Betsy McCaughey is a liar who lies. Incessantly. The magazine that ennabled her lying originally is now, finally calling her out on it.
In this video, The Atlantic's Ta-Nehisi Coates asks his colleague Sullivan what he does for fun. Funny question, considering Sullivan was recently busted for pot possession on a federal beach, but charges were mysteriously dropped without explanation. Oh the laughs!
A federal magistrate's order, in which he objects to the apparent special treatment by U.S. prosecutors of high-profile political blogger Andrew Sullivan and his case for possessing pot on a national seashore.
That frenetic political blogger Andrew Sullivan emerged as a loud proponent of marijuana legalization is no surprise; the Catholic gay British conservative is nothing if not idiosyncratic. What is odd is that federal prosecutors want to legalize Sullivan's pot bust.
