Wolf Blitzer is a Cyborg

So a Wolf tipster pointed me in the direction of a interview that Blitzer did with the Boston Phoenix that has some great moments that show how clearly unhuman he is. Check out this exchange:

Q: Tell me about your name.

A: My maternal grandfather’s name was Wolf, and my mother and father named me after him. So it’s my real name; I did not make it up.

Q: Tough name as a kid?

A: There were moments in Buffalo, New York, where the other kids would say, "What’s your real name?" and I’d say, "Wolf," and the bigger kids didn’t like that answer. It wasn’t that tough. Would I recommend a name like that, or a weird name? I’ve been asked this; especially after the first Gulf War, all these pregnant women were writing me, "I love your name. Should I name my son Wolf?" And I consistently said, "I think it’s tough enough growing up with a normal name, let alone with a weird name." Although if you take a look at Barack Obama, he didn’t do too bad with a weird name himself.

Well, he is telling the truth about one thing, he "did not make it up." But c'mon dude, how much longer do I have to keep writing this blog before you own up to the fact that you are cybernetic killing machine? That shit will make you super popular in the red states, man. They are just itching for that kind of shit in the sticks.

Also, I love this, "after the first Gulf War, all these pregnant women were writing me..." What?!? Is Wolf implying he knocked all these women up? Or that he has a lot of emotionally unstable female fans? Maybe Wolf may be a cyborg, but certain parts of him are all man.

So apparently, a gay prostitute using a fake name was able to enter daily White House press briefings and even ask a "question" at a presidential press conference. Pretty boring stuff. More interesting is that this guy chose Wolf Blitzer of all people to clear his besmirched name. And media critic Frank Rich weren't too pleased:

"Jeff Gannon" had decided to give an exclusive TV interview to a sober practitioner of by-the-book real news, Wolf Blitzer. Given this journalistic opportunity, the anchor asked questions almost as soft as those "Jeff" himself had asked in the White House. Mr. Blitzer didn't question Mr. Guckert's outrageous assertion that he adopted a fake name because "Jeff Gannon is easier to pronounce and easier to remember." (Is "Jeff" easier to pronounce than his real first name, Jim?). Mr. Blitzer never questioned Gannon/Guckert's assertion that Talon News "is a separate, independent news division" of GOPUSA.

Pretty damning. I wouldn't be surprised if Frank Rich ends up meeting with a certain cybernetic killing machine; a meeting most people don't walk away from.

Betty Ngyuen (sp?) is filling in Wolf today and just said "Happening right now!" I guess it doesn't take much to replace Wolf.

CNN just announced that Wolf will not be appearing on his Noon-1:00 PM show today. Pretty amazing when you consider that tonight is Bush's State of the Union address and CNN has been abuzz today because the Pope was taken to the hospital and a plane crashed in New Jersey.

Then again, the bigwigs at CNN could be charging Wolf up for what could be a long night of yelling about Bush's address. Or Wolf can be getting ready for seeing Laura Bush, whom Wolf described as "fabulous" the other day.
