So, does anyone else think that Mickey Kaus is gone from Tina Brown's Newsweek (& firmly ensconced at Tucker Carlson's Daily Caller) because Brown had a chance to get Andrew Sullivan?
And find your own effing links to all this incestuous bullshit. What are we, your mother? (It is just this attitude that keeps us from paid employment.)
UPDATE (1554PT 28 February 2100): We still don't care, but perhaps we should note Mr. Kaus's explanation.

The only thing I know about Kaus is that he kinda looks like the kid from "Mask"

That's a good thing to know. We'd advise maintaining your innocence (There's a reason you & many others in the snarky-sphere seldom hear of him: He is that big a hack.) but if you must, this is as good a place as any, & we're hoping s/he gets back to work.
I was actually gonna look him up because so many of you reference him. Innocence be damned. Keep in mind I learned about never-seen-in-the-same-place Ann Althouse and Robyn of Berkley from S,N.
I also hope that writing for a conservative site will perversely move me a bit back toward the left. My default M.O. seems to be to cruise the web until I find something I disagree with, then blog about it. Since you tend to cruise in your own neighborhood, I suspect I’ll find lots of DC items to react against. Like the headline about Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker’s proposed anti-union legislation, “Details of the bill show it may not be that bad.” Hello? Who said the bill was “bad”? Do you mean it may not be that good? Why should the DC be defensive about Gov. Walker unless it’s still a wee bit trapped in the cocoon of Beltway respectability? [That puts you to Caller's right, not left-ed Huh. So it does. Next time, then]
Oh Mickey, you're such an iconoclast.
Hey!! There was a reason we linked but didn't read.
(And as it turns out, the reason was: "My default M.O. seems to be to cruise the web until I find something I disagree with." Too close to home.)
And you had to drag the mangoes back.
What, beside the obvious does "cruise in your own neighborhood" mean? He'll be compulsively looking at his own page & happen to notice other DC links?
Kaus cruises looking for young goats to blow.
