I know, I know “don’t read the blog/email Michelle if you don’t like it”, but Allah you guys are adding plenty of real news to the headlines area, and all fluff here.. what gives?
RightWinged on August 25, 2007 at 7:06 PM
Xenu told them to do it.
Weebork on August 25, 2007 at 7:06 PM
I have an Iraq post up today, a post about the Democratic primary in Florida, and a post about the HuffPo thing that LGF, Instapundit, and Captain Ed linked to. Not sure what “real news” you think I’m neglecting, but I don’t always have any strong comment on the real news. I just posted an item about Iraq sectarian killings having doubled. Not sure what to say about that, but I thought you guys would be interested. That’s what the new headlines comment system is for.
Allahpundit on August 25, 2007 at 7:09 PM
Dear Mr. and Mrs. Cruise,
Here is one way to save your marriage.
Oh, wait, you can’t use these products, can you? It is verboten in Scientology. Sorry Katie, I tried.
Have a good evening.

Also, please note: the heaviest comment action today is on the fluffiest item, the Miss South Carolina clip. Don’t blame me because the audience digs fluff, especially on a Saturday. And note that the link here goes not to a gossip site but to Tammy Bruce, who’s known for tackling “real news” now and then. Why so uptight?
Allahpundit on August 25, 2007 at 7:11 PM
There goes any shot you had with her right down the tubes!
TheBigOldDog on August 25, 2007 at 7:15 PM
Allahpundit, but we commenters only comment on the important fluff stuff! So just make sure to post the important fluff.
Weebork on August 25, 2007 at 7:16 PM
It works because he is G-A-Y.
Neo on August 25, 2007 at 7:17 PM
Scientology is the universal cure for absolutely everything. Except snoring.
laelaps on August 25, 2007 at 7:17 PM
It’s all good AP. Without the “fluff” my head would explode.
Buzzy on August 25, 2007 at 7:17 PM
Again, I’m not like the others who are going to bitch, as if you don’t have a right to post whatever you want.. it just seems like lately this has become YouTube dumping grounds.
I suppose I overstated the fluff/news ratio, but it does seem (and I know you promised it would) August has become viral video month.
I guess I just am concerned more about our (conservatives) “image”, as I look to this site as sort of the flip-side to HuffPo… yet despite the crap that HuffPo is filled with, they’re not buried in Tay Zonday and robot porn.
It’s more my own concern over “image” I guess, don’t worry about it. It’s just that HuffPo has become mainstream, and I feel like they’re laughing at “us” over here watching viral videos… I guess I shouldn’t be concerned with what that gathering of douches thinks though.
RightWinged on August 25, 2007 at 7:21 PM
Post the “laser kills cockroach” video, AP. It’s fluff-and-guts. A sure winner.
laelaps on August 25, 2007 at 7:24 PM
The fact that he is worth 100 million dollars makes every tidbit about Cruise fascinating.
Blake on August 25, 2007 at 7:27 PM
Well, DUH.
John on August 25, 2007 at 7:30 PM
“Who knew?”
Who freekin’ cares.
Hening on August 25, 2007 at 7:37 PM
I would be concerned about being concerned about what others think of me! Especially people whose opinion I wouldn’t care less about hearing. Tom and Katie are people I laugh at. So, thanks for the laugh Allah!! I needed it after the day I had.
ChrisIansNana on August 25, 2007 at 7:51 PM
Tom banished Katie to a different bedroom because she kept blocking his view of himself in the mirror.

CyberCipher on August 25, 2007 at 7:53 PM
I saw this headline on some magazine at the grocery store. He snores and that keeps her awake.
I came into this thread because I wanted to make a public service announcement if any of you snore. You need to run, not walk, and get a copy of William C. Dement’s book The Promise of Sleep. It’s probably in your library.
Dr. Dement was one of the early pioneers of sleep studies. Many who snore have sleep apnea–you are literally choking to death as you sleep. The throat is closing up and the air going past makes that awful sound. Among other consequences, it puts strain on your heart. I found this book years ago and I think it literally saved my husband’s life.
INC on August 25, 2007 at 8:13 PM
Hey, D’ya remember when like, Tom Cruise had to take on those Japanese guys with his sword in “The Last Samurai”?
That was cool.

TOM: Come out of the Closet
LegendHasIt on August 25, 2007 at 8:18 PM
Are you implying, he is a gerbil rancher?
TheSitRep on August 25, 2007 at 8:20 PM
Imagine how much of a freak you’d have to be, to be Tom Cruise, and still not be able to keep a woman to share your bed?
Rightwing, I hear you. But ultimately, the ugly truth is that Hotair is about ratings, not about real political news. Bryan seems to stay on message, but AP is all over the freaky deaky pop culture map. Part of the reason is that there isn’t that much real news happening and he has to earn his pay by posting something. The problem with that, is that when you cater to pop culture stories and tidbits, you end up with a lower common denominator, the viewership changes, and you no longer have a conservative news site visited by conservatives, but a tabloid-style blog visited by anyone and everyone. It’s a Faustian deal and Paris Hilton is the Devil.
jihadwatcher on August 25, 2007 at 8:34 PM
Just look at their body language in that picture on the main page. She’s turned in to him and looks warm and affectionate, but he’s all tense and looking straight ahead like he’s ignoring her as much as he possibly can. The guy looks like he’s at a freaking funeral.
ReubenJCogburn on August 25, 2007 at 8:39 PM
Can I sleep with her since Tom isn’t interested.
Oh by the way, remember all those gay rumors when he was married to Nicole?
Tim Burton on August 25, 2007 at 8:40 PM
Well, by the same token, MAYBE, just Maybe, if some liberal or Apolitical person comes here to look at AP’s humping robots or something, they might accidentally click on something of substance, and learn something worthwhile.
LegendHasIt on August 25, 2007 at 9:15 PM
When did Brokaw and Couric get married in the first place?
Kevin M on August 25, 2007 at 9:16 PM
I don’t care if it is fluff or hard news; I just post to impress my friends. I don’t even read the articles.
tlynch001 on August 25, 2007 at 9:23 PM
And they live on a Cultesac…
ajmontana on August 25, 2007 at 9:28 PM
What you say is true, but AP delivers the goods when it happens. He has a hard task. He has to keep the hits on the site coming with what ever he can glean from current events. He also maybe younger, I don’t know. But it is fun to see what is going on with the younger culture too (the little ingrate bastages)
I love it when he posts a topic that fractures the bloggers here. It is cool is to disagree on one topic but agree on another then flip back and forth.
And he doesn’t make the news like the msm tends to do.
TheSitRep on August 25, 2007 at 9:28 PM
Allah, don’t take the criticism here personally. You have a huge readership, and you’ll never get everyone to be happy with everything all the time.
Sheesh, I have about two readers, and I can’t make everyone happy all the time — and one of those two readers is me.
Attila (Pillage Idiot) on August 25, 2007 at 9:36 PM
Sorry for not staying “on message.”
Allahpundit on August 25, 2007 at 9:42 PM
What we are all thinking – not saying:
Tom Cruise is an idiot. His last TWO wives were stunning visions of beauty. His recent antics only demonstrate IT MUST HAVE BEEN HIS FAULT.
And it was not the “SNORING”!
Agrippa2k on August 25, 2007 at 9:55 PM
“Image?” I’d be more concerned that the political left could portray us conservatives to youth that we’re all stuck up, humorless, Christianist wackos.
ScottMcC on August 25, 2007 at 10:09 PM
Katie Holmes is dumber than a fence post. She’s almost as low as Paris Hilton on the stupid totem pole.
Frank Nitti on August 25, 2007 at 10:11 PM
Maybe she sleeps in a normal bedroom,
and he sleeps in a alien pod.
canopfor on August 25, 2007 at 10:20 PM
Snoring? Must be the new hollyweird catch phrase for “teh Ghey”. As for Suri, I want to see the results of a paternity test.
As for scientology, shouldn’t he be a “clear” by now? After all, he seems to be living in his own universe.
Guardian on August 25, 2007 at 10:32 PM
Crap! There’s a “message”?! Why didn’t I get the memo? Am I no longer one of the cool kids in the VRWC?
Seriously, though, I personally enjoy some variety, and a nonstop grind of “message” would send me looking elsewhere for a laugh or something to lighten the mood. Obviously some other people look at it differently, and that’s their choice to make, but that’s how I feel about it.
I will say, though, that I can’t even conceive of a universe in which I cared one iota about what any of the Huffpo scum thought about this site. The words “thought” and “Huffpo” don’t even belong in the same sentence.
ReubenJCogburn on August 25, 2007 at 10:43 PM
Hey, we need a little fluff from time to time. We really need it during a slow news month like August always is. I like Hot Air and AP’s mix of hard news and fluff to break up the tension. If you can’t take time to laugh and have a little fun you are no differant than those miserable SOB’s on the left.
Lighten up guys. ;-)
conservnut on August 25, 2007 at 10:46 PM

STAY ON MESSAGE.

see-dubya on August 25, 2007 at 11:31 PM
I know what ya mean about staying on message. But that gets me thinking.
I wish I had a cell phone that had all the functionality of an Iphone but with real high-speed web surfing.. I would ideally be water proof to 30 atmospheres.
And a 11 mega pixel camera. And real GPS nav systems.
Oh and it would have an integral 45 caliber pistol with at least 10 rounds and really good muzzle compensation.
TheSitRep on August 26, 2007 at 12:48 AM
Thanks much for the tip.. I’ll pass it on to a friend.
Mcguyver on August 26, 2007 at 1:44 AM
Is “Holmes” Scientologist for “Beard”?
(I found a 1970’s era, wood-cased e-meter at a yard sale for a few bucks, but no power cord or “sensor”[voltage testor], so I can’t tell if I’ve exorcised the alien karma from my thetan or not.)
profitsbeard on August 26, 2007 at 2:15 AM
Allah
I for one thought the Miss Teen AmericaUSAUniverse is a solid news item
After all in 10 years she’s the next CNN anchor
EricPWJohnson on August 26, 2007 at 2:58 AM
Here is the deal, as far as I know it to be true:
1) The child’s father is not Tom Cruise. He is Katie’s boyfriend.
2) Katie has a 9-year sham-marriage deal with Cruise worth $30MM, and under the terms of it, she gets to keep the kids that she gives birth to during that period.
3) Katie’s parents are not happy with this whole situation at all.
wordwarp on August 26, 2007 at 3:23 AM
When I saw this story, I chuckled.
For about 2 yrs now, I sleep in another room than my husband.
Why? I cuddle with my baby, he likes the room ICE ICE cold, I like it warm, he has to go to sleep at 9, I wait until around 1 or 2 and don’t wish to disturb him, he has his alarm for work go off like 10 times, I don’t wake up when he does..and it bugs me.
It works for us. I don’t get the fascination with the separate rooms? It’s very normal for mothers to want to be with their babies and from what I understand, she co sleeps with hers. I find that natural, not weird.
My parents have been married for over 30 years. While my dad worked, they did sleep in the same room because she would get up with him. Now they are on very different schedules in retirement…they sleep in different rooms..not on purpose..it’s just how it works due to their sleeping schedules..and well, dad snores…drives her nuts.
Highrise on August 26, 2007 at 3:37 AM
Ditto Highrise….
Sometimes to have a good marriage requires good sleep!
The only thing I see odd is, this is how it started in the
beginning of their relationship and appears to be how Tom wanted it in the beginning. When you hit 30 years of marriage yes conflicting sleep patterns occur….
BTW…I like some fluff pieces at times. Hard news all the time well can get nerve wracking.
Suz on August 26, 2007 at 6:10 AM
Amen.
Me, I love any opportunity to bash Cruise; he’s got 15 agencies spending $50 billion a day to maintain his “Q” rating, and I’m happy to do what I do for free.
P.S. Mimi Rogers is still teh hotness.
saint kansas on August 26, 2007 at 6:17 AM
I know other couples who have separate bedrooms, again because there’s too many problems from sleeping together (mainly snoring and having very different sleeping hours)….and they were doing this since they were married. I’m sure my sister the new resident at a Denver hospital may sleep separately from her husband, who also sometimes does overnight shifts (but not at the same time).
When I’ve had hideous coughing fits, I’d sleep on the couch in our den, because nobody could sleep through that.
meep on August 26, 2007 at 6:21 AM
Perhaps Katie was creeped out by Tom’s new “Shirtless Vlad” poster hanging over the bed.
saint kansas on August 26, 2007 at 7:56 AM
Would you like to take a personality test?
Stephen M on August 26, 2007 at 8:37 AM
I think I hear crickets.
Mooseman on August 26, 2007 at 8:43 AM
His bed is probably too short for her.
Wade on August 26, 2007 at 8:53 AM
Blah blah Hollyweird blah blah L. Ron Hubbard blah blah dysfunction.
Our next startling revelation is that Hollyweirf style fame, fortune, and illicit drug use are directly proportional to each other.
I’d like to know what Alec or Leo or George Clooney are smoking, that’s some heavy insane going on there.
BKennedy on August 26, 2007 at 10:14 AM
“Come out of the closet, Tom”…. “But I’m not IN the closet”……. LMAO!!! Southpark RULES!
KMC1 on August 26, 2007 at 11:22 AM
She can’t stand to watch the Cruise/Damon/Affleck Mazola party, huh?
LtE126 on August 26, 2007 at 11:26 AM
Maybe she snores really loud.

If AP didn’t do such a good job, we would not be here. Anything but Rosie! Keep up the good work!
infidel on August 26, 2007 at 2:33 PM
Some of the comments here are unbelievably cranky and annoying. Is this a Republican rite of passage I don’t know about? Can I keep my party affiliation if I reject being a curmudgeon?
The Race Card on August 26, 2007 at 3:12 PM
Steve M-
Who said I have a testy personality?
profitsbeard on August 26, 2007 at 3:31 PM
I’d think “Mrs.” Cruise would be happy to have another room whenever Tom brings one of his boyfriends home. But that’s her problem.
