Smashing the commie haters is one of the intermediate steps in preparing a fascist gin fizz. You smear the commie-hater residue on the glass before adding lime juice.

The perfesser hates commie haters? Good to know!

Oh, and another thing, comments are open for this post by the assistant perfesser over at Right Wing News.

Hep with the jive as i am, i was not familiar with “hangin’ low”, so turned to the Urban Dictionary. Perhaps Donald should have done same. Maybe he means “on the down low”. Googling “hanging low” with the filter off also produces some humorous results.

As always, more great blogging (and moral clarity) at American Power.

His modesty is exceeded only by his lust for barely-legal women.

I’m always game for a bit of back and forth across the ‘sphere,

And I do that back and forth by keeping comments shut off at my space, and not going near S,N.

Nope, don’t think I’ll help this dipshit inflate his cheap yellow balloon of fleeting internet ballyhoo.

When I see words like “commie” used as a pejorative I feel like I’ve gone through some kind of time warp and landed in 1984. I bet this guy has a LOT of John Hughes films in his DVD collection.

Waaah, come see the violence, etc. And this is from a blog pompously called American Power?

I’m a comma hater too; I prefer semicolons. Which is good, because this guy is only half an ass.

Hey, click my name, I’m coming out of the anonymouse closet.

I liked Donalde 1.0 best, when he hated nihilists. Donalde 2.0 going after rogue demonologists had a certain absurdist appeal. But Donalde 3.0 who dislikes commie haters will never catch on.

Donalde, someone born when the Berlin Wall will be old enough to legally drink in six weeks. Seriously, I know you think that a President who is objectively to the right of Richard Nixon on every policy position is a communist, but that is because you are an idiot with no grasp of historical context.

Man, I thought this was a comedy site. I had no idea so many Prominent, Very Serious Conservatives With Much More Important Things To Do took it so personally. Lighten up, Dougie.

(As for the second paragraph, there are few things more pathetic than a conservative trying to sound urban. Sadly, this isn’t the first one to try).

If American media had been my only source of education, I could be forgiven for thinking that the Soviets actually won the Cold War.

They’re more paranoid and hysterical about communism now that it’s gone and capitalism rules the world unchallenged than they ever were during the Cold War. Even the appearance of another bogeyman in the form of Islam hasn’t changed that.

But when you be hangin’ low you toughen up, mofo!

So Tintin is off writing about teabagging and masturbating. I finished masturbating, for the moment, and am now writing. There are no teabaggers in the room, or I wouldn’t have had to resort to self-pleasuring.

Shouldn’t that be “commie haterz”? Cuz that would be much more fly and dope.

We can’t attack Turkey because they’re a NATO member (huhuhuh he said “member”) and attacking them would mean we would be obligated to come to their aid and therefore attack ourselves. Which I suppose counts as fapping, in a kind of violent way, and therefore according to the O’Donnell Principle is illegal.

As a professor at the prestigious Long Beach Community College, I suspect he has more direct exposure to the real thing.

Because we do in fact hate commies, at least real commies, not the imaginary commies that community college Assistant Professor Douglas sees lurking behind every potted plant.

Um, maybe he means “community college assistant perfessers” by “commies”?

I mean, either way, he’s probably right.

We can’t attack Turkey

True, but that wasn’t the call. The idea was to roast Turkey. So we set it up in a comfy chair onstage and make harsh but, ultimately, loving jibes at its expense. Some are rather “blue” but it’s all in good fun. “I don’t want to say that Turkey is showing its age, but after all those centuries of Istan Bull and Constant Tinople, wouldn’t you?”

Who the hell are they, anyway, to anoint or disanoint somebody as electable or not electable?” Rush Limbaugh asked Wednesday. “I’m in charge of that! … That’s always been my purview and nothing’s changed.”

Yes Rush, the world gets that you are bitter and petulant and now that you’ve created the Modern GOP in your image you should buy an island and watch a few sunsets.

The idea was to roast Turkey. So we set it up in a comfy chair onstage and make harsh but, ultimately, loving jibes at its expense.

Then under the NATO charter we would be obligated to make fun of ourselves… which we actually seem to be doing just fine at as it is, so never mind.

Or is that too eliminationist?

Well, take some Dulcolax. That ought to make it more extreme eliminationist.

leftist death-wish campaign of this magnitude…The Radical Assault on American Power

The initial assaults by the 53rd Division of the People’s Commie-Hating Leninist Liberation Army were repelled by Donald Douglas’s indomitable will and extraordinary tactical elan, but the reinforced XII Armored Death-Wish Corps and the fanatic Legion of Sadly had already crossed the Sasquatch River and were closing in on American Power’s left flank.

Which means some poor institution of higher learning degree farm had to print out a Master’s certificate with his name on it. Morbid curiosity is driving me to try and find his thesis (if he even did one), given he claims “in battle you’ll find an unmatched competitor whose tactical elan would make Machiavelli proud.”

I feel bad for the poor schmucks who had to sit on his committee.

As, may I point out, were the two institutions where Dr. Donalde matriculated (BA, UC-Fresno, & MA/PhD UC-Santa Barbara), as well as his current employer (LBCC). Clearly this social parasite has been sucking at the public tit his entire life, stealing the hard earned (well, mostly stolen, but whatever) cash of our Galtian overlords to feather his own (1960s era Playboy love shack) nest.

Funny, when I hear the word “neocon” I think of the flock of chickenhawks who lied us into a disaster in Iraq.

Is this still going on? I’ve moved on to googling ringtones, specifically one of the bit in Miracle on 34th Street with drunk Mrs Shellhammer saying “hello? Hell-OOO-ooo?” into the wrong end of the phone. Maybe when I’m done I can spare a thought for death-wish campaigning.

They’re more paranoid and hysterical about communism now that it’s gone and capitalism rules the world unchallenged than they ever were during the Cold War.

Chris, in the late 80’s to early 90’s, I was quite conservative in my views (thankfully I grew out of it!) and I recall a number of far right wingers claiming that the fall of the Soviet Union was really a trick by the Soviets to make us think we won so we would let our guard down. Well, it’s been nearly 20 years. That’s quite some trick they’re playing!

Sort of like how the wingnuts were claiming after the Iraq invasion that Saddam’s missing weapons of mass destruction were moved to Syria. It’s been 7 years and no one has used these weapons yet.

I just LOVE the attention!

Well, we long suspected he was just another rightwing attention whore. The sad and pathetic part is that I think that this is more (and more respectful) attention than he gets from his students.

Did it…adorably. I’ll show those ladybugs what’s what.

From the Donalde’s tweet:

” Keep dreamin’ you’ve got pwnage.”

I have a son who is almost twelve. He and his friends have the usual conversational back and forth concerning all the important stuff (you know, “balls,” “dicks,” “POOP,” and, yes, “pwning” someone else).

I can say with some authority and certainty that “keep dreaming you’ve got pwnage,” would be met with derisive laughter and cries of “FAIL!” from my son and his freinds if it were deployed as some sort of argumentative riposte. Such lameness is painfully apparent to twelve-year-olds.

Incapable of self awareness, he is.

No guff, McDuff.

You could learn twice as much from debating a bright child, & it would cost both of you a tenth as much in mental effort. Parsing that we pretty much can’t be arsed to give a witch’s tit whether he’s half-black, half-Mayan or half-Shoggoth would surely render the poor man-boy spontaneously incontinent.

JUSES DID WCT!

Donnie, why would we ever want you dead? That would mean no new hilarious student evaluations of your lack of teaching prowess, the end of your shitty little blog, the end of your drunken stalking of SEK, etc. Well, we could certainly do without the last bit. But as for the rest, shine on, you crazy pawn-shop Cubic Zirconium.

No he is full Shoggoth. Maybe half human as well.

You no this is getting kind of sad and pathetic. Here Tintin is raping him with a spiked donkey’s dick using BenGay and salt for lube, while we smack him like a pinata, poke him with sticks, and drag him over hot coals and he thanks us. Maybe this is just straight forward closeted masochism on his part, but I got to think it is because this is more attention and respect than he gets anywhere else, especially from his students.

She. Roald Dahl don’t do gender-bending.

Lulz.

It’s funny you should mention monkeys. We were out with friends and fam this weekend at this riverside restaurant and our friends’ son was trying to touch the stray kitten that was hanging out there. All of a sudden (he’s 7) he says, out of nowhere, “I’m all monkeyed up and ready to catch some cats!” And for some reason it struck my better half really funny and he kept saying it again and again. And he’s like “I think thats the only time in history that particularly combo of words has ever been uttered.” I laughed so hard I cried. So that’s pretty much all we’ve been saying since that night. We’re all monkeyed up and ready to catch some cats! We’re hoping it catches on. I think it works on several different levels.

Sadly, yes. He was a blatant racist who openly advocated the genocide of the Sioux Indians in his newspaper, especially during the Ghost Dance Movement.

Cheerful trivia: the fellow who did that short (Bud Luckey) works at Pixar now. He did the short Boundin’ (which I admit is not my favorite Pixar short, but like all the Pixar pieces it’s well-animated).

I bet this so called professor Donalde whats-it has never even read The Protocols Of The Sasquatches Of Zion.

Otherwise he wouldn’t have been so quick to jump all over that spokeskid who represents every liberal on the planet with his antisemitic Sasquatch sign, I’ll wager.

I always think of creative people being pretty ok with that sort of thing.

Dahl was notoriously peevish about most film adaptations of his work. He hated Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory to the extent that he wouldn’t allow any more adaptations of the book Charlie and the Chocolate Factory in his lifetime. I seem to remember him also being very angry about the tweaked ending of The Witches, and I can only imagine how he’d’ve flipped out over Burton’s Charlie and the Chocolate Factory or The Fantastic Mr. Fox….

I think I do not want to know anything ever about the personal lives of writers whose stuff I like, except maybe for Stephen King, and that’s because I read his writing book already, and I know about his philanthropic stuff already, and I know enough about his wife that I can depend on her to smack him down but good should he do anything truly squicky.

I’m even kind of sorry I read James Tiptree Jr.’s bio. I wasn’t grossed out, but I was saddened.

Anyway: Donalde. Would it assuage his hurt feelings if we awarded him yet another “e”? He could be Donaldee. It could be used in the grand literary tradition of Scarlett O’Hara, like “O, donaldee, donaldee, tomorrow is another day!” It doesn’t scan right without adding a whole ‘nother syllable (“donaldeedee”), but if it cheers him up, wait what yo.

obviously I’m right over the target

Go to http://www.4chan.org/ & tell them how much you love to pull cats’ whiskers off with a pair of pliers, & include a link to your website.

I don’t know whether it’s entirely fair or accurate to say that L. Frank Baum was “genocidal” towards Native Americans. I believe this derives from an editorial he wrote in which he said that the reservation system with its rampant disease and contaminated meat, was a cruel and ignominious way for a noble race to be exterminated — far better if the Army arranged for them to go out in one last valiant campaign.

Not at all clear whether he was being serious or sarcastic — nor if he wasn’t right, given that it was clear U.S. policy at the time was indeed that the tribes should go onto their reservation land and die out as quickly as possible.

I don’t know whether it’s entirely fair or accurate to say that L. Frank Baum was “genocidal” towards Native Americans.

There was more than the one editorial and it clearly reflected his thinking that the Indians should be permanently eliminated. FWIW, I am an anthropologist specializing in Native North America.

I think La Dondald is trying to be called a racist because that is what Death Wish commie haters always do when brave and noble Right wing mouth breathers spewl the second hand crap they get from Tee Vee black people. Then he will go all “Come and see the cruelness inherent in the system”. Cunning like a Fox TV bobblehead

@Larkspur

I think adding another e is an appropriate gesture. My preference is to go with the simplicity of an extra e — I’m thinking cadence doesn’t count for much to this associate community college prof.

Christine O’Donnell sees your petit mort campaign, and raises you an objet petit a

What’s wrong with you people? Teh Donald is clearly in the right here. After all, a simple misreading of a sign, followed by the doubling-down upon that mistake, followed by protestations of persecution, followed by a hilarious misreading of the tailpipe shoop, followed by more persecution complex and a slapfight with Tintin over Twitter, followed by assertions of being right over target (what target would that be?), followed by further “persecution” from us nasty ol’ commie haters, is only minor and unimportant in his larger body of work which includes fawning over the Teabaggers, apparently fawning over the Holocaust, assertions that the Democrats are doomed, doomed! I tell you, attacks on Rachel Maddow, titty pictures…

OK, nevermind, I was wrong. He’s an asshole.

Playing catch-up again, but that’s another thing (like the fact that the right wing hated Reagan’s guts for about a few years towards the end because they thought Russia was playing a trick, like someone above said) they’ve worked very hard to forget. We’re supposed to believe it was just diseases that wiped out all the Injuns, and even if a few generals did occasionally get carried away (cue Rush Limbaugh’s comment about how it’s just like frat hazing and boys will be boys), it’s all right because look at what a wonderful nation we built as a result!
