Riehl World View says Kos diarists can’t change the subject by calling Matt Drudge “gay”.
Now We Know: “This was the incident where Kos circulated a demand that other lefty blogs deprive the story of coverage. They obediently complied. Funny how the left likes to charge that the right are doing that sort of thing but ignore confessions of that on their side of the aisle.” (Blue Crab Boulevard)
Red State, noting that Jerome promised to go on the PR offensive after settling his case, is waiting for the promised explanation.
Mickey Kaus also calls on Armstrong to comment, as does Roger Simon, who writes: “as we all know, sleaze and corruption are not unique to either side of the political spectrum. But Armstrong, Kos & their netroot cronies have made a big deal out of clean government (and they should). So this kind of allegation speaks even more deeply to their ethics, as it it would for anyone in that position.”
Airbrushed: “In April, Armstrong received the Paul and Sheila Wellstone Award for Political Organizing from the Twenty-First Century Democrats “for his visionary leadership in working to create the online netroots community, which has changed the face of politics forever in America by creating a mechanism for people to come together and demand accountability from their leaders.”
The group has removed all references to Armstrong from its web site, including his photo and the announcement of his award, which was cached by Google July 20.” (Watching the Watchers)
Written in the stars? “I don’t get it. Didn’t Vis Numar, astrologer to the stars, warn him that the feds would sniff him out?” (Allahpundit @ Hot Air)
Culture of Corruption, Blog Edition: “Now imagine the horror if the name was “Michelle Malkin” instead of Jerome Armstrong.” (UrbanGrounds)
