I’m sorry I ever hung out with the ClownHall types. I’m just…so sorry.

Stupid overload. Signing off and heading for the tub.

I think that’s Virgin Ben’s best column evar

Alt. Shorter Tony Blankley: Sarah Palin puts lipstick on the pig.

Shorter The Truth

“I have nothing signifcant to add so I will whine about you”

Josh?

Sorry, Truthy, but even wankers like Joe Klein and Andy Sullivan have fallen off the Straight Talk Express and are seeing your candidate for the scumbag he is:

Back in 2000, after John McCain lost his mostly honorable campaign for the Republican presidential nomination, he went about apologizing to journalists–including me–for his most obvious mis-step: his support for keeping the confederate flag on the state house.

Now he is responsible for one of the sleaziest ads I’ve ever seen in presidential politics, so sleazy that I won’t abet its spread by linking to it, but here’s the McClatchy fact check.

I just can’t wait for the moment when John McCain–contrite and suddenly honorable again in victory or defeat–talks about how things got a little out of control in the passion of the moment. Talk about putting lipstick on a pig.

Yes, McCain made a decision that revealed many appalling things about him. In the end, his final concern is not national security. No one who cares about national security would pick as vice-president someone who knows nothing about it as his replacement. No one who cares about this country’s safety would gamble the security of the world on a total unknown because she polled well with the Christianist base. No person who truly believed that the surge was integral to this country’s national security would pick as his veep candidate a woman who, so far as we can tell anything, opposed it at the time.

McCain has demonstrated in the last two months that he does not have the character to be president of the United States. And that is why it is more important than ever to ensure that Barack Obama is the next president. The alternative is now unthinkable. And McCain – no one else – has proved it.

The desperation is showing, and it’s starting to stink like old fish wrapped in newspaper. Your bounce is about to experience the effects of gravity.

You’re not the real Truth. I am!

Nuh-uh! I am!

Shorter Truth: “My hemorrhoids are acting up. Can I scratch them in here?”

Of course, all of this is utterly predictable. MTV has a tremendous stake in the increased promiscuity of American teenagers — that promiscuity allows them to purvey their pornography on the airwaves without fear of public backlash. If teenagers were abstinent, parents would surely rebel against MTV’s poisonous filth. But by pushing slutty behavior, they inure [sic] parents to the inherent risks of degrading material. After all, if Johnny is already having sex, what does it matter whether he watches Britney kiss Madonna on MTV?

That is the stupidest thing I’ve read all week.

I can’t imagine what it would be like to have the lack of integrity it takes to write something so utterly inane.

Dear Mr. Marshall,

Your shorters do the denizens of Clown Hall a disservice by making them seem intelligent and concise.

Plus they’d never be funny enough to come up with “Blue Suede Poo.”

I mean really, what’s the difference between that and some like

“CSI has a tremendous stake in the increased bloodthirstiness of the American people. That bloodthirstiness allows them to purvey their rape and murder stories on the airwaves without fear of public backlash. If people were non-murderers, parents would surely rebel against CSI’s poisonous filth….”

moron.

Shorter Ex-Virgin Ben: I see your pregnant teenage VP candidate’s daughter and raise you a tight-garbed former dope and sex fiend!

Faux Truth, I’m sure there are many excellent conservative snark sites out there that can fulfill your every desire.

Alas, neither was I.

Obama says enough is enough!

Is Ben still a virgin?

And at the end of the day, those teenagers who do succeed in upholding their standards are, by and large, the happiest people in the world. They don’t enter marriage with the baggage of past relationships; they don’t get STDs; they don’t need abortions or adoptions. They have a lower suicide rate and experience depression less than their peers. They are able to share their first sexual experience with someone they love without fear of abandonment. And they give the greatest gift of all to their spouses — the gift of their purity, their pre-commitment to the success of their marriage.

So true. Before MTV, no one had sex outside of marriage, or had STDs, or abortions, or adoptions, or committed suicide or had depression, or were abandoned by their first sexual partners. No, none of that stuff ever happened. Bad, bad MTV!!!!

That’s a very interesting fantasy world you llive in, Ben. Oh, and…

Bristol Palin.

MTV manufactures its own market of porn-loving sluts.

Think of it as capitalism in action, VBen…now deal with it, pigdog!

And at the end of the day, those teenagers who do succeed in upholding their standards are, by and large, the happiest people in the world. They don’t enter marriage with the baggage of past relationships…

They enter marriage with a healthy fear and disgust for their own bodies, the way God intended. I’m still dumbfounded that God created the male body in such a way that we have to touch our tallywhackers to take a pee. It must be a test of our faith.

So how many hours of “research” do you think went into Ex-Virgin Ben’s article on MTV pr0n?

You peons may read the speeches that some guy wrote for me if you want my lies – I mean, positions on issues.

I am off to go ban some books, have sex with somebody, and get more earmarks.

I strangely agree with the general thrust (heh) of his article that MTV is evil. Not because I object to teenagers having sex though.

Sarah Palin’s rubber

Heh, indeed.

Don’t want your head to explode? Then don’t read this post.

Personally, I think the Republicans are in that detail. Who else would put a food source so close to a sewer?

My poor liberal friends. Still a month and a half away from the election and John MCain is already showing a substantial lead in the polls.

Around this time in 2004 John Kerry was shown to be winning by a wide margin. And we all remember how that one turned out now don’t we? Heck every modern election has shown the Democratic candidate to be winning around this time. That only goes to show how badly Obama bin Biden is going to be crushed this election.

The American people have spoken and they don’t want a far-left babykiller with a muslim background as President. McCain has substatial leads with Independents, men, whites, evangelical Christians and gunowners.

Heres the proof.

I’m glad Palin is here. Jacking off to KLo was getting a bit tiring.

so, as I understand it, in all the recent elections, the person leading the polls at the end of summer loses.

McCain is ahead in the polls I link to.

Therefore, Obama will lose?

Must be a high school troll who cheated to pass Freshman algebra.

FAIL. KTHXBAI.

One can presume that Mrs Virgin Ben still thinks so. (See Eddie Izzard’s Dress To Kill for the conversation.)

Yay! Jonah Goldbrick Strikes (Out) Again!

Der Pantload goes for the basketball metaphor – & beats it to death with a tire-iron. But the real comedy is in the comments, where some genius glibly intones about how “Biden is contemplating debating Palin, & soiling himself” – someone needs to cut down on the crystal meth there. The moment Biden takes her off her script & she gets that deer-in-the-headlights look, or worse, goes feral & starts foaming at the mouth, Caribou Barbie is going to look more like Howdy Doody – or a Dalek in drag. The kind of sneering, ugly stupidity she oozes may go over among the faithful, but that all-important Wishy-Washy vote won’t be so eager to lap it up.

Speaking of reality issues: Saul, when you say “here’s the proof” & then link to Fox News’ website, you may as well put a teeny-weeny tiara on your dick & say “here’s the Queen Of England” – it’s exactly THAT logical.

Said it before & I’ll say it some more: polls are bullshit, & precentage-polls for Presidential Elections are the worst bullshit of all. They’ve already been busted for excessively polling GOP voters, & STILL can’t get the full benefit from doing so – because (not unexpectedly) some of those people are switching sides. That’s the reality behind those numbers everyone’s getting so huffy about – & for a candidate who needs to GAIN votes, it’s an omen of doom.

Check back in a month & see if anything remains of McCain’s post-con bounce – if not, he’s playing Fail-Ball with no goalie, because any candidate worth a bucket of spit can hold the bounce from the last Convention for a month. If I’m not mistaken, McCain’s will have evaporated by then, proving that he should’ve retired years ago.

The Truth’s slip is showing.

I am so going to try that. It’s Queen’s Garden Party time!

You’ll find suitable co-starring roles for Prince Charles & Prince Ha(i)rry immediately below “Her Majesty” … just be very careful when pinning those medals on them. In fact, I’d recommend going with duct-tape instead.

Thanks. Really. I’ve been wanting a new damn keyboard anyway.

“Turns out it’s actually better that we didn’t kill or capture Osama bin Laden.”

We beg to differ.

“Turns out it’s actually better for the Republican Party that we didn’t kill or capture Osama bin Laden.”

Fixillated.

Ben:

It’s always so easy to make fun of teenagers who want to remain abstinent until marriage. They receive the ire of their peers for their scruples. They are pilloried as closet homosexuals, geeks and nerds.

The homosexuals geeks and nerds got some lovin’. Sadly, you did not.
