In all fairness, Eric Cantor (R-VA) is not “busy lying constantly”. It’s only when he speaks, apparently.

Am I the only one to realize Amity Shlaes is an anagram for Aliases Myth and also as well A Sly Atheism? I think we have a MOLE! Have you ever seen Amity Shlaes and A. Smiley Shat in the same room? I think not, also. Like such.

I certainly didn’t mean to imply that their projection was AESTHETICALLY equivalent to a Bach double fugue, just in the awesome technique and ambition.

P.D.Q Bach is a pretty good analogy aesthetically, except, of course, that Peter Schickele is actually trying to be funny and the music is full of in-jokes.

Not that you don’t know that, of course…

Obama asked for grey poupon at a burger shack and made the baby Jebus cry or someshit. Watching that video, this immediately popped into my mind.

Nah, It’s more like the projection equivalent of a track from The Short-Tempered Clavier and other dysfunctional works by P.D.Q. Bach.

MS said: “..these people have raised it to a form of high art. They are creating the projection equivalent of a Bach double fugue.”

Oh, please; let’s not get offensive here. How about the projection equivalent of a PDQ Bach ‘Fugue in C minor for chamber calliope’?

My crystal ball shows years of flailing, incoherent lefty-bashing in our immediate future: enmity and augury in perfect cognitive dissonance.

After watching the Dems cave, time after time, over the last decade or so, I would NEVER have suspected them of being so clever and manipulative.

Well played, you spineless freaks.

They’re tirelessly working to establish a socialist dystopia by wasting their time trashing their political opponents, of course. It’s all part of the plan.

In the past, politicians and policy thinkers tended to be magnanimous in victory. They and their friends focused, post-victory, on policy and strategy — not on trashing individuals.

Are the Dems frittering away their time trashing their political opponents, or are they tirelessly working to establish a socialist dystopia here in the USSA?

Wow, she doesn’t even mention what George Will lied about, she just paints him as a victim.

Oh, that’s right. She’s one of those conservatives. Nevermind.

I’m having trouble understanding how saying Bachmann’s history is from another planet, when that history is demonstrably incorrect based on undisputed facts, is “ad hominem.”

Easy – the rightards’ grasp of rhetorical principles is just as crappy as their grasp of history.

It’s always more than a little sad when Mousy Smart Girl goes to bat for Stupid Popular Girl. Amity, she still won’t get boyfriend’s wingman to take you to the prom.

STOP IT!!! The message from our establishment is that all this nasty partisanship has only existed since the 2006 elections.

That is correct. You DFHs had better watch what you say, watch what you do…

I’m sure she is, but I don’t care about her personal life, or what his name is.
