Similarly, Slate.com blogger Mickey Kaus wrote of Michelle Obama: "For whatever reason, she sure seems to have a non-trivial chip on her shoulder and it's not a winning quality." Additionally, referring to a February 16 Newsweek profile, VDARE.com contributor Steve Sailer wrote that Michelle Obama "sounds like she's got a log-sized chip on her shoulder from lucking into Princeton due to affirmative action." http://mediamatters.org/items/200802210006 Thu, 21 Feb 2008 17:21:21 EST From cleavage to "cackle"?

Lewis "Scooter" Libby were not involved in the leak of her identity. However, Armitage's role as Novak's first source is not inconsistent with Rove's and Libby's involvements in the leak -- both were original sources of the information for two other reporters. http://mediamatters.org/items/200609010001 Thu, 31 Aug 2006 21:39:26 EST Hitchens baselessly claimed Novak's recent statements "dissolved any remaining doubt about the mad theory that the Bush administration 'outed' Ms. Valerie Plame" http://mediamatters.org/items/200607210001 Christopher Hitchens concluded that Robert Novak's July 12 "tell-all" column and his July 16 appearance on Meet the Press "dissolved any remaining doubt" that the Bush administration "outed" Valerie Plame, but presented irrelevant facts and assertions in support of that conclusion. http://mediamatters.org/items/200607210001 Thu, 20 Jul 2006 20:27:30 EST Easterbrook baselessly accused Gore film of lacking "factual precision," ignored his own record of twisting facts on global warming http://mediamatters.org/items/200605260014 In a May 24 Slate.com article, Gregg Easterbrook baselessly criticized Al Gore's new film on global warming, An Inconvenient Truth, as factually imprecise and morally careless, but his criticism ignored his history of using distorted scientific research to downplay the threat of global warming. http://mediamatters.org/items/200605260014 Fri, 26 May 2006 17:21:24 EST
