But what is the deal with Josh Marshall’s picture of himself on his site?

  1. He looks bored to me.

    But, then again railing against an Indiana congressman over Social Security bores me too!

  2. Simple.

    He is profound, farsighted, and acknowledges neither camera or photographer — this is the stuff of mere mortals; of the putrid black and white world of markets, broken eggs and middle-class sentimentality.

    Got it?

  3. Perhaps just caught basking in a placitude induced by Biden’s erudite analysis of SS which was “Yes, just so. So true!”

    Not quite.

  4. And, speaking of Biden’s mostly b.s. statement, which did raise the valid question of the “legitimacy” of SS, I will not rest until Patterico is forced to pay into it.

  5. Most bloggers don’t bother with a photo. With JM we know he would like us to acknowledge his good looks. His vanity is of a sort that seeks not to engage the viewer, that would be too promotional, he prefers to allow us to be voyeurs. In turn, he acts the Jeff Gannon as hotmilitarystud.com role.

  6. Hey, if you ever want to compete, I’ve got one for you. ;-)

    Hey, that’s why I put my picture on my blog!

  8. He’s acting bored in order to demonstrate how obviously smart he is. Kids in high school do that a lot.
