Well it appears Barzini reads your posts and has already removed his user id.
Shit, that was quick! It took him a whole day to get rid of those embarrassing Hubbard pamphlet PDFs in 2004.
What else did he edit that he wishes to keep from the light.
The user page is gone, but you can't delete edit trails. Enjoy:

The friendly-match format turned out to be quite useful for revealing which All Black players have the class to stay on track and not turn into complete eggs.
Kahui, Hore and Williams were among that number.
Nonu and Lauaki most assuredly were not.
But I'm with Henry in thinking the match was not without its uses. I wonder if it might have done Toeva and Thompson quite a lot of good. In particular, Thompson was not only quick to the tackle, he wasn't a complete and utter doofus when he got there.

TPM has the video and the transcript of Noonan et al's live microphone moment.
I'm running out of ways to say wow.

We're headed for your Belgian beer bar with our strangled vowels.
Ah, but without a car, how are you going to dispose of the vowels' bodies?
Got you there.

Although I haven't tried the Bullock Track.
It's a bugger. You don't get a run-up and it gets steeper just where you're losing the will.

I'm not quite sure how they've managed to mix Crosby-Textor dog-whistling with Labour's quite baffling 05 "pitches," but they've done it. Does anyone remember their poster which had the baby, the string and the scissors? That was seriously weird. I think the "string" had various policies on it, or something.
That was my immediate reaction: it's as bad as Labour's ghastly 05 baby-on-a-string campaign.
Okay, that might be harsh.

Andrew Sullivan:
"If Sarah Palin did not exist, Stephen Colbert would have to invent her."
Score!

Er ... what?
McCain's spokesman on the speech that Palin will give at the convention:
As for the speech itself, Davis said a generic, "masculine" speech was being prepared before the pick was made and, now that Palin is the choice, she is adapting the speech to her own needs and personality.
What, like some knitting jokes?
Same guy:
"This election is not about issues," said Davis. "This election is about a composite view of what people take away from these candidates."
And they're not letting Palin do any interviews. At all.
