Unfortunately, that comment was deleted for ‘vandalism’ by someone. But does that person have absolute proof that Mickey Kaus does not blow goats? Until we get an answer to that question, we must continue asking it – as it would be irresponsible not to.

Local goats were asked for comment on the rumors but refused. This is clear evidence of complicity in the coverup.

But for sheer ecstasy, a goat.

Yeah, but that edit is a clear violation of Wikipedia’s NPOV (“Neutral Point of View”) policiy. If it had been phrased more circumspectly (i.e., “…who has widely been reported to blow goats”) it would undoubtedly have passed muster.
Aside from the inevitable “[citation needed]” tag, that is.

All I can say is, the Mickster, as he was known in the local goat community, gave me the best head I’ve ever had in my life. But that’s not on the record.
Legalize said,
October 16, 2007 at 4:28
This story has legs – 6 of them. But in my estimation, a very serious question is being ignored by teh MSM:
Does Mickey fuck goats, or does he merely blow them? And if he merely blows said goats, do the goats reciprocate?

He may be a goat blower, but it’s reasonable to conclude that when he does blow them, they don’t travel very far.

It’s very true about Mickey. In fact he’ll be starring as the goat fucking husband in a revival of my play “The Goat,” where Mickey has assented to perform the controversial on-stage goat blowjob, which was cut in the original production, after Bill Pullman insisted that he be allowed to instead blow Nathan Lane. “More of an acting challenge,” he said at the time.
To have an actual goat blower performing in the role of the goat blowing husband/father/gay guy has exceeded my most cherished hopes for the fulfillment of my artistic vision.
The only problem so far is that on the odd occasion when the goats accidentally shit all over him, he whines like a little girl. Very unprofessional, and unbecoming. Grow a pair, Mary!
jeff said,

I’m not partisan on this, but I’d just like to say, from the animal protection point of view, that I have never seen a case of goatfucking where the goat assented–rationally and under no duress–to the advances of a human. Not even from a normal looking human.

Feeling apprehensive, Mr. Kaus then offered a twenty dollar bill to the goat, whom he described as stocky.
Kathleen said,

why is Mr. Kaus so silent ont he subject of goat-blowing? surely if innocent, he would have nothing to hide, and thus no reason to refrain from speaking.

Upon entering the barn on or around 8 pm, I noticed the defendent, Mickey Kaus, loitering around the feeding trough. When I approached, defendent made certain gestures which are commonly understood in the man-goat community to indicate a desire to engage in sexual activity. I entered my stall, only to find the defendent peering through the door at me. He then entered the stall adjacent to mine, placed his foot next to my hoof under the partition wall and tapped it several times — a gestture that is also generrally understood as an invitation to engage in oral sex. I then showed Mr. Kaus my badge, placed him under arrest and head butted his soirry ass into the next county.

So.. I guess this scandal will kill Mickey’s chances of being next-year’s Grand Marshal of the Goat Week Celebration in Laconia NH? (It was said that he, known by the locals as ‘Gumby’, was a shoo-in to win!) Goat Week is traditionally held in June, the week after,“Laconia Bike Week”, and attracts goat clubs from all over the world and as far away as Sagittarius*. The Big Festival culminates with an escorted parade down rt 106 to Loudon Raceway, for an all day exposition of different ‘Free-Style’ goat tricks and techniques. Ending the day with clowns and a magic show for the kidds.
The goats are gonna go wild, like they did in ‘65.

Dumbo said,
October 16, 2007 at 13:32
Ah… This is as clear an example of “whistle-blowing” (not goat-blowing, necessarily, although there may yet be a relationship). Mickey is trying to send a high-pitched message that only those who are attuned to it (perhaps other goat blowers?) can hear. This may not be solid proof that Mickey is a goat-blower, however, it does show his affinity for the goat-blowing milieu. What does he share in common with them?
And by the way, let me be the first to say that I have no problem with goat-blowing, as long as it is consensual goat-blowing (i.e., the goat is of a similar mind as to the procedure). If it should turn out that, indeed, Mickey does blow goats (and the mystery around this point continues to widen), we should not be too hasty to judge Mickey for this pecadillo, lest we all be judged for our own, more normal, pecadillos.

Sure, it’s kind of funny, but wikipedia is not the place IMHO for this sort of juvenile crap. Sorry to be a spoilsport, but reporting the truth would have been better:
“Kaus was the subject of malicious rumors circulating in the political blogoshpere in October of 2007. According to the rumors, started by Atrios of the blog Eschaton, Kaus was in the habit of performing oral sex on goats. This rumor was apparently in response to Kaus’s use of anonymous sources that contradicted on-the-record denials of an accusation against Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards, who was alleged to have had an extramarital affair. Despite public denials by both Edwards and the alleged woman involved, Kaus implied that his source, an anonymous friend of the woman, was more credible than the public denials of both Edwards and the alleged mistress. Other blogs picked up on and amplified the Kaus-goat rumor, claiming anonymous sources that had witnessed the act. Adding to the fun, these bloggers claimed that Kaus’s refusal to publilc deny the allegations was possible proof that they were true.”
See, not too hard, objeectively true, and even more dammning of Kaus as it also challenges his journalistic standards and credibility.
Plus, it doesn’t abuse wikipedia which, for all its faults, is a well-meaning and useful endeavor (again, IMHO).

Them goats is gettin’ lots of attention now but Mickey is not the first to discover the joys of “going goat”.

The name translates literally from the Spanish as “goat sucker.”
See; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chupacabra for illustration.
There is also an order of birds that go by the name “goat sucker”.

No one has even dared to ask the question that’s in the back of all of our minds: Just how young are these goats in question? Jesus Christ, they could be KIDS for all we know, and this “hasn’t denied it” deviant could be enacting his sick, sick fantasies on goats as young as one or two years old! Has anyone even bothered to look up the beastiality laws of his state? I’m all for “alternative lifestyles” but when it comes to the lives of defensless young animals, I draw the line!
