Following up on Joe Klein's latest attack on bloggers, today Eli Lake adds his two cents:
I bet at least half of the netleft are failed professors, over-educated literary theory PHDs, who make themselves appear more numerous than they are through their anonymity and deliberate manipulation of google.
Damn us for manipulating google to get facts and stuff.
What if the netleft, that has created the impression that there is a rising plurality that would like to abandon Iraqis to Qaeda, Quds and the Ba'ath, are just a few thousand committed Marxists in their pajamas? What if the Dems have strategically miscalculated? What if their over-compensation is to appease a vocal 1 percent of the electorate that actually draws contempt from the rest of the country?
Yes, when we're not busy manipulating google, we're creating sockpuppets by the millions to trick the Democratic Party into supporting our Marxist desire for surrender.
By the way, did I mention that Lake majored in philosophy in college? Currently writing for the New York Sun, he apparently couldn't find a job in his chosen field.
