Gee, do you suppose the wingnuts have anything to say about Judge Diggs Taylor's ruling on the Dear Leader's Terrorist Surveillance Program™? You know, the program that had absolutely nothing to do with the capture of the British terrorists? Count on it (bonus - which one is a quote?):
Ace of Spades - it's all Jimmy Carter's fault.
Ann Althouse - my goodness Judge Taylor was mean to poor President Bush! Do you think the judge is dumb?
Atlas Shrugs - there's a wiretap case? Who knew? I'm busy planning jihad against the U.N. and Kofi Enema and ... GAAAAHHHH!!!
Blue Crab Boulevard - I don't know enough to comment on Judge Taylor's decision, so I'll link to other blogs that have reached my predetermined conclusion that it's bad.
Captain's Quarters - Judge Taylor's decision is bad for Bush, so he'd better come up with evidence of another terror plot pretty quick.
Confederate Yankee - Judge Taylor is a Detroit liberal, so what did you expect? Duh!
Debbie Schlussel - it's all the ACLU's fault - well, them and their raft of Islamist, America-hating plaintiffs.
Flopping Aces - liberals made sure Judge Taylor got the wiretap case even though federal cases are assigned using a blind draw.
Free Republic - we're all gonna die!!!
GOP Bloggers - how dare Judge Taylor actually decide the wiretap case - it's not like she's a judge or anything!
Hot Air (Allahpundit) - I don't know enough to comment on Judge Taylor's decision, so I'll link
to other blogs that have reached my predetermined conclusion that it's bad. YAHTZEE!
Hugh Hewitt - I still blame the fucking New York Times for this whole thing.
Instapundit - do you think that, just maybe, this could be good for the administration? Oh please oh please oh please ...
Jawa Report - you have a consitutionally-protected right to chat with Ayman al Zawahiri about the weather in Waziristan but so what - we're all gonna die!!!
JunkyardBlog - many of these plaintiffs who don’t deal with al Qaeda actually lack standing to bring this suit because there is no way they could have suffered any damage if they weren’t talking to someone affiliated with al Qaeda.
Little Green Footballs - we blame Muslims for this decision ... of course, we blame Muslims for everything.
Macsmind - of course al Qaeda had no idea we were trying to listen to their phone calls! Retard!
NRO - (J-Pod) - as usual I have nothing useful to add, so let me take this opportunity to attack Andrew Sullivan for going a tiny bit off-message.
NRO (K-Lo) - as usual I have nothing useful to add, so I'll just link to this DOJ statement that uses the words "Terrorist Surveillance Program" a lot.
Patterico's Pontifications - I told you this would happen ... fucking Carter-appointed moonbat lefty rule-bending idealogue judge. Geeze - I am so smart for predicting this!
Powerline - Hugh Hewitt says that any vote for any Democrat is a vote against victory and a vote for vulnerability - who am I to argue?
Protein Wisdom - even though I didn't read Greenwald's post about the decision, I hereby pronounce it really really stupid.
Real Clear Politics - Mort Kondracke says liberals think a journalist's right to talk to a terrorist trumps Bush's right to listen to terrorist phone calls - who are we to argue?
Red State - we're all gonna die!!!
Sister Toldjah - it is a tale told by an idiot left-leaning Bush-hating Democrat-loving liberal moonbat America-hating judge. Oh yeah, and it signifies nothing! Nyah!
Wizbang! - this is terrible, because the Terrorist Surveillance Program™ was instrumental in capturing those British terrorists and ... what? It wasn't? Oh.
hat tips: Liberal Catnip for some of the links; Comandante Agi - graphic.
We at Spurious George have yet to weigh in on this temporary, trifling decision, but rest assured that when we do, it will be with the proper amount of disdain.

My fav Freeper comment (because of its abject hideousness), after someone upthread had posted Judge Taylor's picture ala Malkin(she better watch her back now, eh?):
"Not to be terribly racist or sexist, but who would have guessed that the traitor in question would be a 2-fer on the affermative action scale?"
Wow... just: Wow.

I second Helen's Wow. When I read these great roundups, I can't help thinking that There but for the grace of god and common sense go I.

Debbie Schlussel reminds me of Ann Coulter. Maybe it's the blonde hair and the photo - or maybe it's the way she writes. But blaming the ACLU, right. I forgot - NOW the formerly "communist" ACLU is considered to be "fascist." I'm so confused.

I think the bonus question is a trick-they're all quotes! It's too bad that none of them actually read anything than each other (like, I don't know, maybe the Constitution?). Thanks for sparing me the anger headache of plowing through the mindsets of all these obviously deluded people!

I am constantly amazed that Agitprop has the fortitude to scan these cesspools for our entertainment. I won't even guess which is real this week but thanks for the gutter crawl...better you than me.

Dammit! You made me go through all these until I found the actual quote! (Is that cheating?) I used to sleep better at night knowing that these type of people really don't exist.It's Junkyard Blog (such an appropriate name for nothin' but trash)

No Jedi mind tricks here at Agitprop - and that's a promise.

The real entertainment is in reading the comments of the dipshit sheep.

Blogenfreude -
Thanks for all the work, nice job. According to your post, it doesn't look like there's any coherent discussion coming from the right on this subject. I think people are getting weary and wary of namecalling, which is all that that seems to be coming from the right. As far as I know, any help that the US did give had Fisa court clearance, making any statments Bush is making about needing more power totally bogus.

W/o reading any of the links or comments, I'd say the Junkyardblog was a quote.
It totally fits the "if you haven't done anything wrong, you don't have anything to worry about" mindset.
'Course, I'm late to this party. Did anyone get the bonus?

Gnarly cool! Is Lew correct? (I'm still too squeamish to check any of those links myself. Especially now that the money's won by Lew if true.)
Posted by: Michael Bains | August 23, 2006 at 01:19 PM
Wow. It pretty clear that nobody here read Judge Diggs opinion. From a legal reasoning standpoint, it is as pathetic an opinion that has ever been rendered and it has no chance of survival upon appeal. Even if you like the outcome, Judge Diggs has not done anybody any favors by issuing this half-baked opinion, and she has thoroughly embarassed herself in the legal community.
