This is hella funny. I cross-posted this at AOL, but the uncut versions, I will put here only.
CPAC Exclusive: John Ziegler/Max Blumenthal TrainwreckI posted spectator video, earlier, of the tail end of an altercation between “Media Malpractice” filmmaker John Ziegler and The Daily Beast’s Max Blumenthal. Immediately afterward, Ziegler came down to Bloggers’ Row to tell us all about it.
Being the fair-minded guy that I am, I immediately set out to track down Blumenthal’s side of the story.
Together, their accounts form a weird, blogtastic version of Rashomon.
I will be posting the unabridged versions of what they said later.
Update: Here’s Max’s edited video of the confrontation, but I think it’s fairly representative.

I’m betting on the Jew.
