You know, there are just some people who like commemorative plates. I am pretty sure that fewer than 5% are buying them ironically, while the vast majority simply have bad taste. Or they were caught up in the emotions like those we all felt on election night and instead of cheering or kissing someone or popping open a bottle of Chandon they called an 800 number and gave their credit card information to a call center.

Noonan gravely announcing that Obama’s election isn’t historic to Republicans because they’re “long past racial politics” is particularly tasty. Yeah, I really can't believe they jumped into that one with both feet. But I guess I shouldn't be surprised, knowing Noonan and his commentariat as I do. They're really cracking up over there at B4V. Did you guys catch the post in which Obama's bit on 60 Minutes about wanting a playoff system for college football was called a harbinger of coming Stalinism? No, I'm not making that up. Teh krayzee, it burnz! I know I'm not alone in hoping that Noonan does try to vie for Harry Reid's Senate seat. I can't even imagine how awesome it would be to see Noonan out on the stump, Noonan trying to handle a press conference, Noonan trying to debate, etc.

Noonan is being grossly intellectually dishonest

No way.

Mark’s just bitter about his U-StoreIt bay full of unsold Ronald Reagan Commemorative Interrogation Dildoes (The Gimper!™).

“Execrates” is another good rhyme for ‘plates’

And here I thought it was a character from “Gladiator”.

“Execrates! Put down that sword! I am your emperor!”

I’m an unabashed Obama fan and supporter, and there’s no WAY I’d buy “collectible commemorative Obama plates.” That kind of thing is just some sad “entrepreneur’s” idea of making a quick buck. It is unlikely that they’ll sell to any but a few kooks.

Noonan is being grossly intellectually dishonest in assuming that there is an actual demand for such a product in the mainstream of Obama supporters. His then/now hypocrisy is just gravy.

The saddest part about Noonan is that he labels liberals as kooks while people like Jeremiah call for the death penalty for gays and believe the ACLU is a paramilitary organization.

I now part with “God bless President Obama.”

Good job. It’s kind of like saying “Merry Christmas”. You can always tell the wingnuts, because they look like they want to call their parents and print invitations. In your case, you can probably tell from the looks of pure hate.

I live in a Red state, and rather than saying “have a nice day” after every minor social exchange, I now part with “God bless President Obama.”

Oh, but it’s not fawning when THEY do it. Just like it’s not fascism.

There is really something weird and cognitively unexplainable about this. The guy has a site called “blogs for bush” with a giant banner celebrating bush and a dump truck full of content saying the president’s farts should be treated like champagne bubbles, and he can actually write this sort of wheezy jabber? i just don’t understand it. the oaf has been bush’s personal fluffer for 7+ years. I just don’t see how it comes together. don’t the laws of physics prevent this sort of thing from happening? i must admit that my main reaction to this is perplexity.

Never in my life did I ever think I’d see some of my fellow Americans acting so servile to a politician…this nauseating flattery really has to stop

A few months ago, in response to my bitchin’ about illegal wiretaps, and other Bush Constitution-trampling, and question as to whether he’d trust that power to a Democrat, Mr. Noonan said he wanted “his president” , no matter who it is , to have the same kind of power . I assumed that also meant all the sycophantic trappings that go with a king/president . Guess not . ;)

You know what? Now that our guy is prez, I hope we don’t turn into Noonans when things in Astan or here at home go south, which they will.

Just saying.
