This is likely related to the lion’s share of something
or other…
Sadly, No! friend and email buddy David “The Lion’s Share” Frum argues — surprise, he’s the guy Frum likes the most — that the big winner of the the Republican Iowa caucuses was Rudy “Neuf Onze” Giuliani:
My man Rudy Giuliani got smoked in the Republican Iowa caucuses: 4% of the vote, nowhere.
Yet as the smoke clears, it’s going to become apparent that Rudy was the night’s big winner. Here’s why.
David has reasons — we’ve got Sadly, Nos:
Huckabee’s strong social conservatism played well in Iowa, where 60% of Republicans say they attend church every week.
Yes, there was a lot of Huckamentum because in Iowa, and really only in Iowa, 60% of Republicans say they attend church every week… Sadly, No!:
62% of Republicans [nationwide] attended church in a typical weekend compared to 47% of Democrats. (2006)
USA Today, which hates freedom and kittens, reports that 54% of conservatives say they attend church once a week.
Gavin adds: Also, unless Our Man Frum is employing the broadest possible roundy-uppy definition of the number 4, he’s inflating Giuliani’s total by 14.3%. (Giuliani actually got 3.5% of the vote.) Of course, nobody can really agree what numbers mean — especially those vague and sneaky small ones.
The Neuf Onze is nowhere near as cool as the old Fonz.
I’m curious to see just how much backpedaling there is by the party of God and Jeebus and DemonCRAPs Are Evil and We Win Forever because of God is a Republican over the next while. I expect to do a lot of laughing and I thank the Sadlies for bringing it.
Because one thing’s for sure. When there’s a lot of smoking wreckage, and cameras, Giuliani’s never far away.
Gavin already nailed this one:
” Respectively, all of the Republican challengers except Ron Paul will win both primaries…”
I’m grabbing that whole “Neuf Onze” thing and dashing out the door.
Sorry Seb, but it just seems like something that will make me cool and sophisticated. And gawd knows, that ain’t easy.
Umm. Can one of you educated Sadlys help me learn how to pronounce it right?
Thank Yew….
mikey
OT, and more in Gavin’s territory, but oh my god have you seen this old Althouse post? I was looking for the Python sketch and apparently this post ranks high up in the Google results for “ann elk”…
O/T but you gotta check out this video parody from my man’s blog.
Yeah, I posted that link in two different threads. Whatcha gonna do about it?
The girls could not resist his stare.
David Frum never got called an asshole.
In his column Frum argues, among other things, that if Giuliani wants to win South Carolina, he needs to crank up the immigrant bashing in order to offset his position on abortion.
He concludes his essay with an appropriation of the Clash.
Can one of you educated Sadlys help me learn how to pronounce it right?
I think it’s something like “Noyf Oantsuh”. Been awhile since I tried speaking any German, tho.
P.S. For those who never experienced the joy of Jonathan Richman:
Pablo Picasso never got called an asshole.
Damn. Over at TBogg, there’s this drama queen video from Glenn Beck. And they’re taking odds on what the “medical procedure” was.
Tweety is such a g** d***ed freak.
I just watched an interview Chris Matthews did on MSNBC with Elizabeth Edwards about last night’s results, etc. Some good back & forths, especially when Matthews suggests Edwards is of the “trial lawyers”.
But then at the sign off, he says to Elizabeth, “You’ve got a great face.”
Okay. Thank you?
I think it’s something like “Noyf Oantsuh”. Been awhile since I tried speaking any German, tho.
Try the Language of Defeatism.
“Sure there was some smoke clearing in Iowa but not as much smoke as I had to clear on 911”
Shouldn’t it be Undici Nove for 9iu11iani?
Try this, mikey: “neuf” kinda sorta rhymes with “woof” and “onze” is vaguely like “owns.” But you have to do it with your lips all pursy like Dieter from Sprockets. Now is the time when we dance.
Dieter’s agony is exquisite
Liebe mein abschminke. (sorry all you German speakers — couldn’t be arsed to figure out any correct spelling)
Now is the time when we dance.
With anger.
But then at the sign off, he says to Elizabeth, “You’ve got a great face.”
But in fairness to Chris . . . oh, never mind.
And ITTDGY, I will never tire of that picture. He’s so worried.
OK, this will be the one and only warning (Vorsicht: die erste und letzte Warnung!): Neuf Onze is Français — those wishing to wank it up German style should try “Neun Elf.” As for Neuf Onze, you’re on your own.
Tweety spent too much time as an altar boy, hanging around the “special” priests that the other boys knew to avoid being alone in a room with. He can’t cope with women except by pretending they’re either middle-school cheerleaders or Real Dolls. He’s made a very successful career out of playing an unselfconscious “Media Pundit” version of Borat — the power players who write the checks are sufficiently sexist (also racist, xenophobis, and homophobic/homo-fascinated) that they find Matthews’ semi-Tourettes ballwashing of Big White Men and spit-frothing over All Other Life Forms highly entertaining.
One of these days he’s going to get punched out on camera by a “lesser being”, or by a Big White Man whose wife/daughter/fellow humans Tweety’s just tried to take a public dump on, and the ensuing YouTube searches may just bring down the all the internets.
I’m so sick of these lying sacks of shit. “He lost but he won.” Yeah, right.
Die you piece of fucking shit whose mother would roll in her grave if she could because when she birthed you she expected a human being, not a ripe turd.
And let us remember Matthews’ interview with Elizabeth and John Edwards a year ago.
“semi-Tourettes ballwashing”
kudos for that Anne but the mental picture is painful.
One of these days he’s going to get punched out on camera by a “lesser being”, or by a Big White Man whose wife/daughter/fellow humans Tweety’s just tried to take a public dump on, and the ensuing YouTube searches may just bring down the all the internets.
All of those clowns deserve this fate: Tweety, Russert, David “Bobo” Brooks, Bowtie Inheritance Boy Tucker, etc. etc.
But you know, Anne Laurie…these thoughts just prove we’re liberal fascists who aren’t patriotic enought to support waterboarding and bombing the brown people.
P.S.. And Fred Hiatt.

“This is Rudy Giuliani, who is the President of the eleventh of September.”
1+1=3 (for large values of 1)
Any wonder these guys see nothing wrong with massive budget deficits?
Crap, can only display Arabic in preview.
Transliterated.
“Giuliani is the President of 11 / 9.”
Giuliani huwa ra’is ahdaa ‘ashra tas’a.
Ask me about my Mistress!
mikey, try this:
“neuf” is kinda like “nerf,” as in “nerf ball,” except leave the “r” out.
“onze” is kind of like “ohm,” except with an -nz ending instead of an m.
That probably didn’t help one bit.
And Tweety is a huge-headed mouthbreathing woman-hating loudmouthed sack of shit.
I got those World Party songs posted on my site, if anyone’s interested.
Which only proves that McCain!!!! Or, possibly, Romney!!!
No, wait – I think it proves… VodkaPundit!!!!
Hey now!
Fascist!
If I could ever finagle an invitation to be on “Hardon”, er, “Hardball”, I would be delighted to act the subservient clown to Tweety’s car, until the producer said “we’re back in five for ninety” and when the light turned red, go over the desk and punch his smug, bigoted face repeatedly with short, hard straight rights, holding his tie, draped across his anchor desk, firing, bang, bang, bang, rythmic, short right hands to the center of his stupid, vapid face, while the producer and the grip are grabbing me and pulling me back, but fuck that, I’ve been hit before, they’re gonna have to turn it up a bit to have any real effect, meanwhile digging in, thinking of my safe sunset place, pounding his liver lips and alcoholic nose, reaching into that place that drives your fist harder and more accurately than anything you can do outside of actually just doing it, slamming that piece of shit over and over again, then trying to skate out the back door before the cops got there, to see if I could find Lou Dobbs before they could find me.
Ah yeah. That would be better than a sailboat off Betio….
mikey

Heh, just goes to show how very, very long it has been since I’ve done anything with German, I guess.
One of these days he’s going to get punched out on camera by a “lesser being”, or by a Big White Man whose wife/daughter/fellow humans Tweety’s just tried to take a public dump on, and the ensuing YouTube searches may just bring down the all the internets.
You know, I’d be satisfied if just one of his guests ever sat through one of his spittle-flecked meandering question/suggestions with a vague smirk and responded with, “hey, you know what? On the internet, everyone calls you Tweety. Because you have a big round yellow head.”
In fact, if you know anyone with the slightest chace of ever appearing on his show, I’ll take up a collection to make it worth their while if they’ll follow this script.
Anne Laurie: Did you see Jon Stewart eviscerate Tweety a while back on “The Daily Show”? It was a beautiful thing, and metaphorically not unlike mikey’s fantasy sequence above.
mikey: I would totally enable you in any way possible to make that happen.
And sure, rolled up and housed in Hudson County Jail, held in Iso for the first 72, then arraigned and housed in population, and word getting out, dude fucked up tweety, it’s on vid!
Talk about doing easy time, I’d be fuckin royalty in da unit, my back would be covered nine ways from wednesday. Hell, even the skins would buy this…
mikey
These “establishment” Republicans can’t deal with Huckabee for the simple reason that he embarrasses them. It was like all their whining about the YouTube questioners — Southern Pride Guy, Bible Guy, Pimp My Shotgun Guy. They’re perfectly content taking advantage of evangelicals’ votes, organizational lists, and motivation, but they don’t actually want them to be out there, in public, where people can see them.
So now they’re all on this pitiable “Wayne’s World” trip — wow, like if monkeys fly out of Romney’s butt, and we put on St. John-stock, and Fred gets that rockin’ guitar, Giuliani will totally win the battle of the bands, dude!
Me & my friend Richard are very depressed. . . . .
Ah, Tweety on the Daily Show– classic. I considered showing up when he stopped here in L.A. on the book tour, flattering his ego just enough to get the mancrush vibe humming, and then asking him to sign a copy for my sister named ‘A. Recipe For Sadness’.
Video of Matthews on the Daily Show.
In east Asia there is a superstition about the number four, because in Chinese and Japanese, the words four and death are homophones.
in Chinese and Japanese, the words four and death are homophones.
Damn. Who’s idea was that?
Did they have one of those impenetrable senses of humor or something?
mikey
They do love their puns.
Mikey, I think I want a cigarette. And I don’t even smoke!
Yes, and I found out the other day that the number eight and “fortune” are also homophones in Chinese. I guess that’s what you get when your language has only 250 vocalizations in only four accents, and yet 5000 ideograms.
“No seriously. I have Leprosy. I caught it from an illegal gay mexican. Huh? Of COURSE I can prove it. It’s undeniable. I’m sorry, what? Lou would like me to appear on his show? Just for a three minute in-studio? Will I be able to actually meet Lou? I will? Shake his hand? Well, ok then.”
Hee hee…
mikey
That is an awesomely brilliant plan, and this is from someone who has spent a lot of time pranking radio and TV stations on air.
Let’s see… Giuliani only got 6% of the vote amongst non-evangelical/born again Christians vs. 33% for Romney (leader in that demographic).
Is Frum a dumbfuck? Why yes, of course.
[Plots]
Mikey, am I correct in thinking you’re a veteran? Because “Military Veteran who wholly supports X” (X being some lame ass bullshit the GOP is pushing) might well get you within striking distance.
My only concern is you’d get TweetyCooties, either during the first segment when he verbally fellates you, or after the break when you get his snot and blood all over your hands. Better not chance it.
…and Ron Paul beat Giuliani almost 2 to 1 in the non-Christian demographic.
LMFAO!!!
when you get his snot and blood all over your hands.
No, no, you see, Arky. You GET it. This is what war is about. It’s so close to love, but the fluids spill, well, differently. But you have to embrace the stuff that comes out of your enemy. Did you learn NOTHING from “300”?
mikey
Yeah. It’s like “woof” with an “n” and say “bronze” without the “br”, and say it through your nose.
Dammit. I got drunk and made Carbonara last night.
I’ve got peas EVERYWHERE!
Dammit…
mikey
Ah, Tweety on the Daily Show– classic.
Yeah, that was good times, huh? He didn’t get it. it was beautiful.
And sure, rolled up and housed in Hudson County Jail, held in Iso for the first 72,
Whoa. For a minute I thought you were talking about Britney.
mikey, you still got rain? Cause we got it now.
n fact, if you know anyone with the slightest chace of ever appearing on his show, I’ll take up a collection to make it worth their while if they’ll follow this script.
Call Stephanie Miller, maybe?
Steady rain, less wind, g. But more coming.
Pretty much every freeway has been shut down in both directions today. 101, 280, 580 and BART.
And I gotta say, if your professional appearance is dependent upon keeping a whole lot of gray hair in a pony tail, this much rain and wind kind of makes you look like a crazy person.
Dammit…
mikey
All we are saying, is give peas a chance.
Chinese have a whole numerology thing going on … I think every digit means something. Used to see a lot of license plates out in Cali with multiple 8s on them, and houses selling for $888,888 or suchlike.
I bought a house out there with a street address of 168, and the agent literally spent half an hour explaining why this was such a great number. Apparently the “magical numerical combination” somehow offset the “getting horribly fucked on the price”.
Since when do peas go in carbonara?
I drove home through the rain – it was gentle at first and then intensified. The last 6 miles of my ride home are through winding 2-lane canyon roads, and by that time the storm was really at its height. It was – well, challenging! Lots aof water sheeting across the road, some rocks coming down from the cliffs alongside.
Our house has a flat roof, post and beam, no suspended ceilings or attics, so you pretty much hear every raindrop, every acorn that drops on the roof. It’s pretty loud here tonight!
We have a dry creek just below the house. – it ain’t dry now!
Since when do peas go in carbonara?
You mean they don’t?
Shit.
I kinda suck, but I always throw a handful of frozen peas in my carbonara.
It gives it a sweetness against the pancetta and the cheese.
But I’m perfectly willing to evolve…
mikey
Jeebus, where the fuck is everyone? Is there an important football game? Power outage? Did I kill the thread?
Nope, it’s the west coast black hole, g.
I’ve noticed this phenomenon since I discovered this whole blogistan dealio.
Early evening for us, everybody else except gbear up in the twin cities and Gavin when he’s not on the road go to bed. Leaves us with no forward operating base. We kind of stumble around, until those muthas wake up and decide to start playing again.
It’s like being a tweaker again, with nobody willing to run the 24. Fuckers…
mikey
Actually, mikey, I think the idea of fresh (or frozen) sweet green peas in a pasta dish is marvelous. But I don’t think it works with the name “carbonara”. Prolly has its own kind of name. Sweet spring peas with bacon and egg and cheese could be VERY nice.
Where’s my frickin’ umbrella? It’s pouring here!
Yeah, but Smilin’ Mortician and XHoosier are in SoCal, aren’t they? Not to mention – hey! I haven’t heard from M Bouffant lately!
Yeah, but Smilin’ Mortician and XHoosier are in SoCal, aren’t they? Not to mention – hey! I haven’t heard from M Bouffant lately!
I think Mortician’s up north, but Hoosier and Bouffant are down your way.
Unfortunately, they seem to have this preoccupation, um, dammit, what would you call it, a life or something. Assholes.
I never thought about the name. I do this thing, I CALL Fettuccine carbonara, that’s bacon and chicken and mushrooms and peas that is SO freakin good, I just maybe need to rename it or something…
mikey
“No seriously. I have Leprosy. I caught it from an illegal gay mexican. Huh? Of COURSE I can prove it. It’s undeniable. I’m sorry, what? Lou would like me to appear on his show? Just for a three minute in-studio? Will I be able to actually meet Lou? I will? Shake his hand? Well, ok then.”
Hee hee…
Hee hee?
I’ll have one of whatever Mikey’s drinking!
I do this thing, I CALL Fettuccine carbonara, that’s bacon and chicken and mushrooms and peas that is SO freakin good
Sounds like a kinda chicken primavera, mebbe.
Carbonara is the thing with pancetta, butter/oil and then you break a couple of raw eggs into the hot cooked pasta, sprinkle on some parmesan, and toss it all around. It’s kind of like spaghetti with eggs and bacon. Very comforty.
I was first served this by a great old raging queen Opera director, who tosses the pasta and ingredients with great gusto and almost spilled my wine in his expansiveness.
He’s been gone lo these many years. I raise my glass in memory of him.
It’s the baseline Bowmore Islay malt, Ruthie. Teh Laphroaig is still in shortage.
I blame Huckabee…
mikey
Lack of good youtube results save you all from that scene in Ace VEntura 2, where he’s getting wailed on by the crazy tribal dude, and he’s like, “Alright!! That’s it! Now I’m MAD!” and the montage continues with him being wailed on more.
So as near as I can tell, I’m just a couple eggs short of a carbonara. I’m willing to go down that path.
Tonight I had some leftover Italian Sweet Sausage from my bit meatloaf extravaganza the other night, so I grilled one up with onions, peppers and garlic, and served it on a french roll with shredded swiss. and a serious mustard that still had the seeds happening.
It pretty much met all the minimum requirements for YUM….
mikey
Sounds delicious. We went the lazy and slutty route tonight, firing up some frozen Wolfgang Puck pizzas in the oven. It’s like the line in “Sweeney Todd” about priest –
“TODD: (spoken) Heavenly!
Not as hearty as bishop, perhaps,
but then again, not as bland as curate, either!
LOVETT:
And good for business, too — always leaves you wantin’ more!
Here’s some Ernie Kovacs as Percy Dovetonsils:

Mikey–that was one damn fine show. I’ll have to see if I can get the DVD’s now that you reminded me.
Damn. I want to see the Depp/Bonham-Carter “Sweeney Todd”. but I just saw their version of “A Little Priest” on Youtube, and it’s so totally lackluster compared to either the Geroge Hearn/Angela Lansbury version OR the MIchael Ceveris/Patti Lupone versions…
Here’s the best of both worlds:

Tim, did our geriatric malamute pay your guys a few visits, in his day? You know he’s gone now.
Yes he did, several times. I have a great photo of him somewhere where his whole body was shaved except for his head. He was on our porch.
Our geriatric English Setter may have paid you guys a few visits too before he hit the silk.
Oh. wow. The only time he was shaved was his first year with us, back in ’98 or something. He passed this summer – Gavin did a nice post here for him, actually.
Well – how are you doing with the rains?
Isn’t it nice of Sadly, No to host this fest !?!
It’s kind of the same rain, except we’re uphill, we’re getting it first. So it’s MUCH worse for us !!!
Except we get YOUR water flowing downhill. So keep it clean.
Well, we should pool our resources when the next GIANT ROCK comes down and shuts off electricity and the roads.
That was the year son Will was in Ireland. OK, this is too dorky. See you at the mailbox(s).

Stay dry up there!
Stop by if you need batteries or sandbags or anything.
As they said to us when we spent a winter in Norway – we don’t really need to know our neighbors well, we just need to see the candle burning in their window and know that we’re not truly alone. 😉
Mikey, I remember concrete blonde from watching a few of their videos on MTV.
Obviously, that was a long time ago.
I liked them.
Nope, Mikey, there is definitely a school of Italian — or at least Sicilian — cooking where any dish involving cream must also include peas (or artichokes or asparagus) “to balance”. I first learned this in the Bronx, where I grew up, but I’ve also heard it from Italian cooks trained in the Midwest (Chicago, Detroit) and I believe SoCal as well. If I could find my copies of Calvin Trillin’s Tummy Trilogy, I could verify that he also includes peas in the Spaghetti Carbonara he argues should be the national Thanksgiving-Day dish…
It may be related to the fine English tradition that including a slice of tomato on a heaping platter of high-fat variety meats grilled in extra butter somehow made the whole artery-clogging delight “more healthy”.
Oooh, oooh! Just got on the rubber shoes and opened up the broken umbrella ffor a trip downto the basement. Yikes!!! water coming in! I deployed the Piggs to help divert the water from vital locations, but I fear it will end up flooding the downstairs bedroom. Which is why it has a tile floor and we’ve picked everything up of it.
CalTrans says our creek has overflowed and flooded the boulevard, just south of Robinson Road, it sounds like. Lots of cars stuck in it. We (and Tim) are high above it, but it’s our only way out.
They say there’s 3 feet of water over the roadway.
Well – we got candles and batteries and we’res till warm, and dry – except in our laundry room.

Hi, I am here, just got so many problems I can’t keep up anymore, the nost immediately relevant of which is my devil-box w/ the ethernet card is in a coma, & I must keep the ‘phone lines open during the day so my goddamn shrink (whom I used to like, but am becoming less fond of each day she doesn’t renew my ‘script) can contact me & the fucking nazi landlady can reach me to advise when exactly she’s sending the sheriffs to evict me. So no interwebbing during business hrs. And the comforting rain has stopped.
In the small world category, Hoosier X & I used to occupy the very same apt. bldg. in H’ywd. (I was evicted from there too.)
And while I don’t know squat about food, I too was always under the impression that carbonara had peas. Not that I’ve ever been near one, but maybe the Olive Garden™ knows.
Hey, Bouffant. Stay dry right now. If you need to look for a place in SM, Topanga or Malibu, give me a jingle.
Nope, Mikey, there is definitely a school of Italian — or at least Sicilian — cooking where any dish involving cream must also include peas (or artichokes or asparagus) “to balance”.
you are right, an old freind of mine, from a southern Italain fmily used to throw peas into every pasta dish he could find, saif it added to the colour. ever conviced me, but it always did taste good.
Well ferchrissakes, double glove before fisting Tweety into a coma. I’d hate to see you slowly mutate into a chickenshit bloviating Thompson sniffing douche bag.
Because I’d have to hunt you down and put you out of your misery.
Huckabee won! McCain won! Romney won! Rudy won!
It sounds like a fucking game of tee-ball…
Everybody is special, and gets their own little awards.
Forgive me for saying it: sounds like a bunch of retards.
We’re all winners of the 2008 Iowa Republican caucus! Let’s not be carrying on about who got more votes than who. The important thing is that you all did your best.
Umm, except for Fred Thompson.
Oh, you can now forget Mike Huckabee’s house celebrity Chuck Norris.
John McCain, who completely won the Iowa caucuses in his own special way, has unveiled his celebrity supporter: Wilford Brimley.
Eat that, Huckabags!
Holy shit. Wilford Brimley’s still alive? Hasn’t he already died, like, three times?
I think Mortician’s up north, but Hoosier and Bouffant are down your way.
Unfortunately, they seem to have this preoccupation, um, dammit, what would you call it, a life or something. Assholes.
Hey now. Do not!

So is Rudy’s new nickname “The Neun Elf”? Because if so, I demand a Photoshop from Gavin!
I suppose if we wanted to make it catchier, we’d call him the Noon Elf (really, it should be the Noin Elf, but that makes no sense).
Pssst. Only half of North Americans who claim to attend church every week actually do.
Only half of North Americans who claim to attend church every week actually do.
I wonder if the reporting rate will become more honest as holier-than-thouism fades in popularity (which I assume it’s going to do as the scary end-times millennium turnover recedes into the past and many godbags are exposed as wetsuit-humping hypocrites).
church=teh best pyramid scheme ever
Pssst. Only half of North Americans who claim to attend church every week actually do.
That would still make about a third of the country.
John McCain, who completely won the Iowa caucuses in his own special way, has unveiled his celebrity supporter: Wilford Brimley.
Great. And I was just getting comfortable eating Quaker Oats.
John McCain: His hearty fiber will keep you regular, and keep your blood sugar controlled as well, which you’ll need for the next 100 or 1,000 years in Iraq.
Gavin adds: Also, unless Our Man Frum is employing the broadest possible roundy-uppy definition of the number 4, he’s inflating Giuliani’s total by 14.3%. (Giuliani actually got 3.5% of the vote.) Of course, nobody can really agree what numbers mean — especially those vague and sneaky small ones.
LOL, too damn funny!
“My man Rudy Giuliani got smoked”
Please, that’s too much information.
