Who’s your daddy? Or, should I say, Blog daddy? If you’re a blogger and you became hopelessly addicted to this method of mass communication through the influence of another, you might want to let the Commissar know. He’s building a family tree of the blogosphere and so far, over 300 bloggers have contributed. Check it out.

While the Left rushes to judgement in the Valerie Plame matter revolving around Vice President Dick Cheney, his chief of staff Scooter Libbey, and Karl Rove, the credibility of Joe Wilson, Valerie’s husband and the so called case ‘whistle blower’, has come under question. The WaPo has a great article highlighting the ‘spotlight addicted’ Wilson, and how his thirst for fame might end up throwing a wrench in the prosecutors plans.

Meanwhile, Drudge has this tidbit.

ABCNEWS TELLS WHITE HOUSE OF ‘INDICTMENT’
Tue Oct 25 2005 19:08:02 ET

“We have double sourced that the vice president’s chief of staff has been indicted,” a reporter for ABCNEWS claimed to a White House press spokesman this afternoon.

The White House refused to comment on the claim. The network said they didn’t need comment, they were preparing to run with the development on this evening’s network news broadcast, sources tell the DRUDGE REPORT.

ABCNEWS claimed to the White House that it had double sourced how an indictment against vice presidential chief of staff I. Lewis Libby was set.

A senior White House source quickly determined ABC was bluffing; the report did not run on the East coast feed of the program.

Developing…

Indeed.

I think Al Franken is trying to be funny, but ever since he’s become a turbo moonbat, his comedy has looked more like a terrifying psychosis. He’s now hawking his new book, and Amazon has loaded up a promo video, which is, really not very funny.

Drudge hotlinked the video, and the page on Amazon is here. Now that it’s being served up to millions of Drudge fans, I’m sure Amazon will remove the video portion and/or the whole book pre-order page before lunchtime. Get it while it lasts.

Like a car wreck, I wanted to turn away in disgust but I couldn’t stop staring.

I was innocently surfing the web, looking here, glancing there, when I came upon this. Like me, I’m sure you’ve seen one snippet or another of this insanity, as it has been out there for some time. Now though, an edited version of the craziest moments are viewable.

Tom on Oprah. Beware of the gag reflex.

If you can stand it, there’s lots of other Cruise / Scientology nut moments here.
