Actually, I just meant that his name was also Leonard, but IMDB’s wrong about his name:

Hanx for the clarification. Carry on.

Really strange. Hard core conservatives applauding the biggest spending, least conservative big-government Republican ever. Hard core conservatives at CPAC should have been booing Bush and Cheney, if they had sense and guts. Strange days, indeed…..

Hey, Leonard, I’d like to recommend that you learn to express yourself without using vulgar words of a sexual and excretory nature, especially in public forums and blogs on the Internet.

In regard to the ConservativeHQ.com booth at CPAC, you could have introduced yourself and asked the names of the several people at that booth before incorrectly guessing.

There’s a right way and a wrong way to do everything.

Okay, Art, let’s just calm down here. First of all, the guy at the booth was passing out copies of Richard Viguerie’s book, at Richard Viguerie’s booth, at a conference Richard Viguerie was attending, and in fact, there have been plenty of times that the heads of their organizations were manning their booths — in fact, I saw Morton Blackwell at the Leadership Institute booth several times; a number of Town Hall writers were at the Town Hall booth; Niger Innis was (despite my photo above) at the CORE booth a few times; Michelle Bernard was at the IWF booth; and Joseph Farah was constantly at the WorldNet Daily booth. Having seen Viguerie only a few times in photos, I wasn’t entirely sure what he looked like , and frankly, whoever that guy is, I don’t think he looks entirely unlike Richard Vigurerie, so I just assumed it was him.

If it’s not, fine, I’m sorry, and I apologize for mistaking an innocent man for a total douchebag like Viguerie. My overall point is still valid, though, which is that Viguerie, who undoubtedly approved the image I was mocking, is a dick. The fact that I mistook some other guy for Viguerie is of marginal import, and you’re acting like it’s the fucking Piltdown Man.

Why would anyone assume that a man at the ConservativeHQ.com booth was Richard Viguerie?

Do you think that anyone at the Americans for Tax Reform booth would be Grover Norquist? Or anyone at the Leadership Institute booth would be Morton Blackwell? Or anyone at any of the 150 booths would always be the head of that particular organization?

So, instead of guessing wrong on the Internet for the world to see, perhaps the name ConservativeHQ.com might give someone a clue. When you do that, and scroll down a little, there is a picture of Richard Viguerie on the left of the screen at http://www.conservativehq.com/

Shouldn’t persons who post pictures and captions on the Internet know just a little bit about what they are writing?

Or is it impossible to know what you are doing and be a liberal at the same time?

Actually, I just meant that his name was also Leonard, but IMDB’s wrong about his name: Private Pyle was named Leonard Lawrence, not Leonard Pratt. (“I don’t like the name Lawrence! Only faggots and sailors are named Lawrence!”)

BTW, Mr. Pierce, but imdb has your namesake as Leonard Pratt. Unless you mean someone else.

I heard that “Flagg Youngblood” was born František Zden?k Bohumil Janá?ek, but he changed his name after the poor sales of his first DVD*.

Hey, leave the kid alone. You know he went off the reservation and got uninvited at WND years ago? He had his own blog for awhile where recanted on much of the insanity, but people hounded him until it disappeared.

Wow, I had no idea about that. I almost feel sorry for the kid. Almost.

Also: Best. Blog series. Ever.

Behold Bryan Preston, auteur of the sublime “cheerleader” clip, cinematographer who crafted the legendary “Democrat potty-mouth” bit, guy who took 5 minutes away from masturbating furiously over the cheerleader and potty mouth clips to slap “STILL STANDING!” in grunge font over the bombed-out mosque. Is it possible to look more like a douchebag? Did he crawl out from under a pile of spent porn DVDs and pizza boxes 5 minutes before this picture was taken? I mean what the fuck.

American Milk Solids
Stay away from me,
American Milk Solids
Leonard, let me be
Don’t come curdling round my door
I don’t wanna see your byproducts no more
I got more important lobbyists to bilk
Than spend my time reconstitutin’ milk
American Milk Solids, I said stay a whey (geddit?)
American Milk Solids, listen what I say.
(Etc, etc for about three hundred verses.)
