Quote of the Day or "The Bigger the Lie the More They Believe"

"My source is someone in the blogosphere."

Conservative blogger Ace, writing that Barack Obama's secret girlfriend is "not just a silly little rumor." Never mind that Ace doesn't have other sources.

Conservative bloggers really do believe that they are going to replace the media. My all-time favorite piece of conservative investigative journalism is Power Line stating that Senate Democrats were responsible for the infamous Terri Schiavo memo. Republican Mel Martinez was forced to admit the memo came from his office.

Martinez, the GOP's Senate point man on the issue, said he earlier had been assured by aides that his office had nothing to do with producing the memo. "I never did an investigation, as such," he said. "I just took it for granted that we wouldn't be that stupid. It was never my intention to in any way politicize this issue."

There is also Glenn Reynolds claiming Saddam Hussein's government was involved with the Oklahoma City bombing. Bunk from the HBO series The Wire said, "The bigger the lie, the more they believe."
