He touched up his eye color.

Noticed that; I thought it was pretty cool.  

I thought it was very freaky.  It reminded me of those dogs that have one blue eye.  It was not a very good photo to do that with.

OMG, its the battle to see who can be the biggest turd.

Say, Arnutt, does that code of ethics apply to stealing a quip from Will Rogers, you poopy head?

Somewhere in a deep, dank corner of that code of ethics there's got to be something about not disparaging fellow journalists, no matter how much of a D-bag you think they are.

Bates has one of the most read regular op-ed columns in the Tulsa area and he gets a lot of hits on his blog.  I guess that breeds some professional jealousy.

That is how I feel about listening to country music.

I dispute the notion that either are journalists.  Essayists, yes, columnists, yes, bloggers, sure, but not journalists.  They are political busybodies who are fighting for the loyalties of that putrid pile of elephant poop known as the GOP.  That is the source of the conflict, not journalistic integrity.
