if America did elect some Baghdadian Candidate... What's the most extreme power a President can exercise unilaterally? If you answered "bustin' open The Football and gettin' busy with some launch codes", you are correct! Which would mean that the most dangerous thing President Obama could do would be pretty much exactly what Yoshi thinks W. should have done in 2001. (Ok, Yoshi thinks Obama would launch on Israel. Like the military would just go along with using nukes against an ally out of the clear blue. But it's still a funny juxtaposition.)

>the first Presidential race in a very long time to be marred by actual violence.

Sounds like someone’s nostalgic for the Brooks Brothers Riot.
That belonged in the previous millennium (y’know, the 2000 election).

Way the hell-and-gone up the page, anangryoldbroad skrev:

Sometimes I wonder if the internets doesn’t make people more vicious than they would be if they couldn’t hide behind their monitors.

I don't wonder. I know that this has actually been argued as John Gabriel's Greater Internet Fuckwad Theory.

I think they’re afraid that Obama might actually be a well-composed committed man in a stable (in this case heterosexual) relationship instead of playing at it Vaudeville style, like conservatives have a fetish for.

It’s like they think the Village People are portraying genuine masculinity, and regular and non-flaunting men must be, like, gay or something.

“His appeal – particularly to the young and to single women – can be traced to his girlishly sensitive countenance and character.”

The bitter musings of an ugly, single, conservative man.

“Now, let’s be very clear – I’m not saying that Yoshida is a concealed human-alien hybrid, a Reticulan candidate, writing to influence the vote for the Presidency in the service of alien overlords. But, on the other hand, it’s impossible to rule it out. ”

Obama is the final Cylon!

I am actually pretty surprised at the “he is effeminate and gay” angle. I mean, really.

He is good looking, comfortable in his own skin, smart. He’s got that voice.

Hey… I’d do him!

I’m trying to find a certain story in Canadian archives…

This is the first time I’m read anything by “Yoshi”, and it reminds me of someone (about a decade ago) who put full-page advertisements in newspapers across Canada exhorting the citizens to work towards a “more British North America” like in the good old days. Hopelessly delusional and baldly racist, it was eventually tracked down to an East Indian man. I think he was living in Richmond (Vancouver) at the time, but I’m trying to confirm it.

Anyone else here remember this story?

OTB said,

I hope Yoshi answers those ominous goat-blowing rumors asap. Of course, denying them will in no way mean he does not blow goats, and I’m not saying he *does* blow goats, but still…

I’m surprised there are as many commenters as there are, who are not familiar with Yoshida.

Go through his archives, it’s a compendium of teh crazy.

geez. Going after Adam Yoshida, isn’t that a bit… a LOT like shooting fish in a barrel? Picking the lowest of low-hanging fruit?

his blog was fun when he had comments enabled. After that, I bet his hits dropped to nearly zero. Why give him the traffic?

Geddy, Alex and I, like most Canadiens, know that Adam Yoshida is a bugfuck crazy psychopath. Like Steyn, he’s a pussy.

There’s a reason why Obama draws the woman’s vote more than Hillary Clinton: he’s a limp-wristed weakling…

If Adam actually knew any real women, he would know that many women actually like a manly man … in his proper place, of course, as stud service.

Oh, and I DO mean to be rude.

Yoshida likes his coffee the way he likes his women: ground up and stored in the freezer.

Nothing to add – just BWAAAhahahahahahahaha!

I know I keep saying this, but as soon as some asshole spells “Muslim” as “Moslem”, I can be sure they don’t know what the fuck they’re talking about.
Then when they say that “Al-Taqiyya is a common practice amongst teh SEEKRIT MOZLUMZ”, well, then I know they need to get themselves back to comparative religion 101.

This is par for the course as far as Yoshida is concerned.

He is one bugfuck crazy Canadian wingnut.
