If This One Doesn’t Work, They’ll Try Another

Charles Lipson, The Chicago Tribune:
Independent prosecutor for ACORN

  • Oh boy oh boy it’s Whitewater oh boy let’s go fishing Woo! heh-heh erhm, independent prosecutors should not be appointed lightly, but possible criminal suspicions against Acorn might lead to the appearance of White House impropriety, causing, uh, suspicion.

possible criminal suspicions against Acorn

THERE’S NOTHING THERE YOU FUCKWADS!!!!

*ahem* though that sure as hell didn’t stop them in ’92.

WHY. THE. FUCK. are we letting these shithead assclown morans run our politics? THEY LOST. They should find a dark corner somewhere and wank off to “Atlas Shrugged” and let the rest of us get on with business.

 
 

At this rate, it’s even odds if Obama will Whitewater himself. Agreeing to wingnut demands is one of the very few things he does well.

What does it take to get a real Democrat–rather than a GOP-licking DINO–into office anyway?

 
 

Well, Whitewater was bullshit too, so…

 
 

I don’t think “DINO” really applies. Capitulating to the GOP is what Democrats do. Always have done, always will do. Someone who’ll tell them “fuck off, you’re crazy and you lost” would be a DINO.

Oooooo! Suppose they find Acorn personnel tortured someone? What to do, what to do?

 
 

Or shoveled half a trillion bucks to their cronies. What if they did that? Huh? Huh?

 
 

I think they should investigate that white pimp kid and his skanky-ass ho, because prostitutin’ is illegal. Also: Doug Giles, for bringing up his daughter to be a skanky-ass ho.

 
 

It’s the WaPo but worth a read anyway.

Evidently not well, either, if his argument in this case is anything to judge by.

Acorn should shoot an old guy in the face.

 
 

What up commie rat bitches? The 9/11 Avenger is back to lay the smackdown on your punk asses!

Looks like Obama’s criminal friends in acorn are going down. And it’s about time. Without acorn to steal the election for him again in 2012, the Black Osama is gonna get a can of whoop ass when Joe Wilson wins the election to become our next President.

The American people have finally woken up to Obama’s communist agenda. And they are none to happy with his national health care and massive government bueacracy.

Communism reared it’s ugly head in America and the FORCES OF TRUTH CUT IT OFF!

YOU’VE JUST RECIEVED A SMACKDOWN FROM THE 9/11 AVENGER!

PEACE OUT COMMIE PUNK BITCHES!

 
 

This is somehow surprising? I for one was convinced before the election that Obama was going to be treated in ways that would make him wish he were Clinton. The whingetards have done absolutely zero to disabuse me of that notion.

Wingnut S.O.P.

1) Make shit up
2) Throw shit at your adversary
3) ?
4) Profit!

 
 

Oh, wait.

How do I bookmark this?

He wants Obama to appoint a special prosecutor to examine how two obvious crazy people pretending to be Borat got reverse played by a handful of social workers?
How the fuck do movement conservatives remember to breathe?

Yo, Avenger! I’m real happy for ya, and I’mma let you finish, but Coach Urban Meyer is the best “taunting the libs” troll of all time. OF ALL TIME!

 
 

the 9/11 avenger must be a FauxNews idiot.

 
 

I got news for you commie punk ass bitches! The mighty GOP is gonna take back Congress during the mid-term of 2010. There will be another Contract with America, only this time the mighty GO-of P ain’t gonna abandon their Conservative Principles.

That’s right commie rat bitches! This new and improved Conservative Revolution is gonna be permanent. The mighty GO-of P Congress will be as the messenger sent before the face of our Conservative Republican Presidential Candidate, who will slay the commie pigs and seize the White House in 2012!

Joe Wilson is the man, if he can’t do it no one can!

YOU”VE JUST RECIEVED SMACKDOWN NUMBER TWO!

SUCK IT COMMIE RAT BITCHES!

 
 

independent prosecutors should not be appointed lightly, but possible criminal suspicions against Acorn

Regardless of the possibly illegal actions (there is some doubt that even the individuals broke any laws) of a few low level workers, ACORN organizationally had no involvement, in fact fired the people involved, and is guilty of nothing. Maybe we should apply the same standard to the Republican Party in light of the rampant criminality of its membership.

 
 

Somebody want to potty train that puppy it left a big old mess at 21:20 and 21:50. WTF, you feeding your bitch exlax now?

 
 

Capitulating to the GOP is what Democrats do

Only in the last 30 years. I am old enough to remember when Dems actually had spines and fought for what they believed in. That was before the corporatists took over (looking to close the fund raising gap with the Rs). Their mantra has always been never do or say anything which might offend the affluent or corporations. The rest is history.

Three words letters, DLC.

Blechh.

It’s odd you should say this, because the animated GIF I’ve programmed into my killfile is of a guy taking a shit.

Actually predates the DLC, though they grow out of this movement. Started with the “move to the center” strategy with Carter and went on steroids after Reagan’s win. Ultimately gave us the Republican-lite economic policies of Clinton and possibly Obama.

Modern Dems do fight for what they believe in. It’s just that they believe in pretty much the same big-picture things the GOP does, stopping a hair short of believing that fewer Dems and more Rethugs should be in office.

There are differences on the margins in that the Dems are occasionally capable of competent governance while the GOP only sees government only as a revenue source for its cronies. As far as big picture issues of war and peace, civil liberties, and responsibilities of government to the people are concerned, however, Dem thinking has been the victim of GOP ideological capture.

 
 

I bet that every evening when the moon is just right, the 9/11 Avenger puts his underoos on over his pants, ties his mom’s red scarf around his neck, and accosts squirrels in his back yard for being in bed with acorns.

 
 

accosts squirrels in his back yard

In a lot of states that’s illegal, wid bestiality laws bein’ updated inall. Wunner where the Li’l Avenger lives? He might not know he nodda sposed to do dat iny more.

 
 

Why are you all hating on Avenger? Isn’t he doing snark?

 
 

squirrels in his back yard

Well that’s a relief.

 
 

Why are you all hating on Avenger? Isn’t he doing snark?

I can’t tell anymore. If I didn’t know better, I would think Orly Taits was doing snark. If it was, Mr Avenger sir, then consider my above comment to be an homage.

 
 

Vacuumslayer, why are you all hating on vacuums?

 
 

Why are you all hating on Avenger? Isn’t he doing snark?

Well, maybe he is. And maybe I’m doing reverse ju jitsu-homage-hating.

Ever think of that?

Hmm?

Hmmm?

 
 

WHY. THE. FUCK. are we letting these shithead assclown morans run our politics doing this? THEY LOST.

Phixst. Now it’s perfect.

 
 

Vacuumslayer, why are you all hating on vacuums?

Because vacuums are socialest. Duh.

 
 

Gingerbread Outhouses of Panama

My next new band name.

Actually predates the DLC, though they grow out of this movement.

True dat. They are the biggest weeping carbuncle on the party at this point, though. I suppose it goes back to the reaction to the Dems telling The South to go pound sand on civil rights, and the fears over losing a solid electoral bloc. Unfortunately, ditching populism and becoming lice in the corporate pubes is hardly an effective ploy to assuage the bigots you’ve just pissed off. From either point of view. Worst of all worlds, really, except for all that juicy, meaty cash. Of course, like any nasty, parasitic infection, once it has settled in but good, it’s a bitch to root out.

 
 

Ever think of that?

Hmm?

Hmmm?

I can’t keep up with the snark or the cleverness! It’s all…too much! *head splodes*

 
 

I can’t keep up with the snark or the cleverness!

Well, never forget that there multiple options for appraising comments (partial list):

Snark

Non-snark

Gibberish

Trool

Parody Trool

And, utter bullshit.

Concerning my last comment, the last of the list probably is closest, although there could be some debate about that.

 
 

Well, as long as I’m chuckling I don’t much care what’s what.

 
 

Dear ACORN:

Someday I would like to build a nuclear weapon in my basement.

Could you help me with my income tax in the meantime?

Thank you!

Love,

Oh sweet christ.

“But this is a national scandal and there ought to be a full-scale national inquiry.”

Yes, an organization that has received federal funding for housing assistance programs in the low millions of dollars over the past 15 years apparently has some boneheads in the ranks, who they promptly fired. Clear “evidence” of an Obama-ACORN conspiracy to defraud the government. Meanwhile, every defense contractor has been caught red-handed ripping off BILLIONS from the government, and it’s never cost any of them a contract. Clearly, ACORN is a bigger deal.

“First, although no allegations have yet touched the Obama campaign, ACORN did have significant ties to the campaign and other progressive causes. Published reports show that ACORN and its subsidiaries received some $800,000 from the Obama campaign to get out the vote. Second, ACORN is intimately tied to the Service Employees International Union, one of President Barack Obama’s most powerful and vocal supporters.”

You could have shortened that to a few simple, declarative sentences: “They’re DEMOCRATS!!! BURN THEM!!!!”

“…the public will wonder if they are seeing a political defense by ACORN’s friends, a coverup rather than a fair-minded, independent decision by the Justice Department.”

No they won’t – but you’ll keep trying, won’t you?

 
St. Trotsky, Pope-in-Avignon
 

So, does this mean Ken Starr gets to write another sad erotic novella? I certainly hope Acorn provides a better degree of softcore than Southern Gentleman skeets over a blue dress.

 
 

Wait. Vaccums are socialest? That’s why you hate on them? I could have sworn you said you hate on the vacuums coz they suck.

But that would be too obvious, no?

 
 

Vacuums are redistributionists.

 
 

No they won’t – but you’ll keep trying, won’t you?

Yep. Double down. Hell, it’s not their money they’re betting.

 
 

Vacuums are redistributionists.

Um, does the word “Zombot” mean anything to you, sir?

 
 

I forget, how many dollars did ACORN give the pimp and hooker when they asked?

Oh that’s right, none.

 
 

the Black Osama is gonna get a can of whoop ass when Joe Wilson wins the election to become our next President.

You don’t call…you don’t write…. Was it something I said?

 
 

Um, does the word “Zombot” mean anything to you, sir?
Oh noes! The Zoomba apocalypse!

 
 

So … who’s been charged so far? Anybody? Will anybody ever face any charges? I’ve got a funny feeling I already know the answers.

This isn’t about burning the witch – it’s about getting the angry mob to think you’re on their side. Problem: it’s not 1998 any more.

 
 

Joe Wilson is the man, if he can’t do it no one can!

Well then, that settles that.

 
 

I’m not sure if the current edition of GO of P (Great Orgasms of Patagonia) is going to be a seller. i just don’t think walruses are all that photogenic. Yes, it’s a failing on my part. However the Avengargggh guy is a hoot on page 63.

 
 

Let it be said once more, Republicans were for ACORN before they were against it.

And remember that bottom-feeder The Fool? I think he has returned as this new fail troll. Same MO, same parlance “punk ass bitchezz.” High time to crank out the Disemvoweler again.

 
 

G.O. of P. : Great Outbursts of POOP!

BLASPHEMER!

 
 

So should we be demanding the immediate defunding of the military because several members thereof were caught on film performing unspeakably depraved acts of torture against prisoners of war? Or is it OK because they weren’t secretly videotaped by a Speshul Seekrit Ayjunt and his girlfriend?
