2. This fucker does not get the benefit of the doubt, ever.
I've learned that nothing is accidental on his cesspool-of-a-site, especially story placement and graphics.

4. No, he doesn't. His star seems to have really fallen, so I'll bet he's doing crap like this...

just to get attention.

He needs a visit from the Secret Service for this one. Better yet, MO and Hill should just pay him a call...

6. What an asshole.
It is intentional enough to be obvious, but still claim deny-ability. Like the dead chimp cartoon.

7. As sleazy as Drudge can be, I don't see an issue here...
He throws stuff together with no organization whatsoever; I don't see a link between the stories anymore than I see a link between the Alabama shooter and the Google / Parkinsons story.

8. A crude example of framing
A person would think a professional right wing spin meister like Drudge would be a little less subtle than this. At least he could be more creative.

9. Nothing from the hard right is innocent.
They are playing a very very dangerous card, this is a very deliberate, very well organised talking point. The fact that they fail to recognse is that with instant media, the whole world is watching and they will NOT get away with it.
