Honestly, in almost eight years out here, if there's a name I see here and about rather infrequently because it's associated with someone whose efforts never seem to be broadly acknowledged, or widely linked with any regularity, it's Matt Labash. He must make good coffee as I see he's been with the Weakly Standard for a while.
The name floats by on Twitter occasionally, if anything, causing me to wonder, who the hell is that guy, when it does. Frankly, I've never bothered to find out ... before now. So his beyond sophomoric to pitifully stupid and inaccurate shot at Sarah Palin is priceless, if insignificant. I wonder if Kristol will give him an extra fifteen minutes for lunch for a week, given that he provided the headline for Palin-obsessed Jonathan Martin's latest hit piece on her.

"Palin doesn't rush in to localities. She doesn't take up individuals as causes, file lawsuits, or promote herself outrageously like Sharpton. There simply is no comparison at all. It was purely a mechanism for Labash to flatter himself and try to impress ... friends, not say anything at all relevant to Sarah Palin."
"When you boil it all down, Labash and company talk to the inside the Beltway set and a relatively small number of individuals who give certain campaigns money."
Here is Matt Labash a real objective "conservative"...
Here is Matt Labash describing Palin in 2010...
- "annoying"
- "jingoistic"
- "shameless"
- "like a 15-year-old"
Matt LaBash is a liberal loon. He is the Dave Wiegel of the Weekly Standard, a leftwing plant.
He will soon show up on Politico and be listed as a long-time writer for the WS, as cover to bash conservatives, the Tea Party and Palin. Bank on it.
why is it when someone wants to get noticed or get ratings they attack Palin or her family. I wish she would announce her run for POTUS these Lawn signs are starting to stack up in my garage./last sentence/s
At the risk of engaging in class-based rhetoric, "Skippy" Labash should see if someone at Daddy's club can get him a gig better suited to his strictly pedestrian talent.
Another for you from Riehl, it includes a link to a Mark Levin commentary: http://www.riehlworldview.com/carnivorous_conservative/2011/03/mark-levin-on-the-hate-for-sarah-palin.html
Good for him! He’s telling it like it is.
