After even more evidence of doctored photos emerged, Reuters has finally withdrawn all photographs taken by the Lebanese freelancer responsible:

Introducing PoliticsCentral

Pajamas has rolled out the beta of its newest content area, POLITICSCENTRAL, and I must say it’s an impressive debut. I like the look, and the rebranding, but there is also some really great initial content up there, including interviews with John McCain, Rick Santorum, and Israel’s Amabassador to the United States, so check […]

I Have No Qualms…

…about plugging the work of a group that I’m associated with when it is self-evidentally good on the merits, and right now, Pajamas is very good indeed on the new Israel war. Tons of good links to keep you occupied for quite some time…

Sure, It’s A Unashamed Plug…

…but even unashamed plugs are right twice a day (oh, wait, that’s stopped watches - well, no matter). If you haven’t checked out the Pajamas Media Blog Week In Review feature, you really should - not because I’m a member of Pajamas, but because they have some truly interesting commentary.

Shut Down Gitmo - Before The Tourists Get Wind!

Oh, the idyllic days of youth:
Asadullah strives to make his point, switching to English lest there be any mistaking him. “I am lucky I went there, and now I miss it. Cuba was great,” said the 14-year-old, knotting his brow in the effort to make sure he is understood.
Not that Asadullah saw much of the […]

A Liberal Dilemma

How are advocates of the viewpoint of George Bush as lawless tyrant reacting to the prospect of the government posting tens of thousands of documents online for public perusal and translation reacting? I’m talking, of course, about the Iraqi document project, an endeavor pushed by Pajamas Media that is now making headlines around the […]

The Case For The War Strengthens By The Day

I’ve been blogging on the revelations found in the Iraqi document dump, that, while not conclusive, strongly suggest a lot more cooperation between Saddam and bin Laden than we’ve previously suspected. New evidence from the documents, and a French spy in Saddam’s inner circle, suggest that the WMD case was stronger than we’ve been […]

And Ye Shall Know Them By The Company They Keep

Steve Gilliard subs for Jane Hamsher, and, astonishingly, manages to keep the quality of the content as low as ever. Here he explains why the fact that the progressive netroots invariably pick the loser means they’re, I don’t know, really cool in some odd way:
…[B]ecause we’re independent, our actions don’t affect each other in the […]

Tom Maguire looks at Greenwald’s theory of the […]

Fashion Week In My PJs

Most of you know (heck, it’s right there on the top right of my blog!) that I’m a Pajamas blogger (in more ways than one). As such, I try to participate as much as I can in the special branded blogs the Pajamas Media folks come up with, like the NSA one, or the […]
