Ruberry Ducky, Joy of Joys!
ABOVE: Phyllis Schlafly (left) and John “Marathon Pundit” Ruberry (right)
John Ruberry got his feelings hurt when we made fun of his ridiculous post on how Obama is a terrorist because he sat on a community fund board with Bill Ayers, a former Weatherman. And just to show us how stupid we are he’s been looking for more connections between Obama and Ayers. And he thinks he has it — Obama once went to Ayers’ house:
It turns out I was not grasping at straws. …
In 1995, State Senator Alice Palmer introduced her chosen successor, Barack Obama, to a few of the district’s influential liberals at the home of two well known figures on the local left: William Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn.
OMFG. He was once at Ayers’s house! I’ll bet that he and Bernadine traded bomb recipes in the kitchen while no one was looking! And he’s making that bomb right now, and he’s gonna throw it at John McCain, and win the White House, and turn it into a Code Pink safe house, where they’ll spend all day making bombs and blowing up stuff.
Next week, Ruberry will reveal that Obama also stood next to Ayers at a urinal in an Irish bar on the south side of Chicago.
Brad adds: OK, this does it. I’ve officially had it with the Clintons:
The Hillary Clinton campaign pushed to reporters today stories about Barack Obama and his ties to former members of a radical domestic terrorist group — but did not note that as president, Clinton’s husband pardoned more than a dozen convicted violent radicals, including a member of the same group mentioned in the Obama stories.
Guys, you’re breaking Rule Numero Uno of running for office as Democrat: you’re feeding into wingnut talking points. Hell, I wouldn’t be surprised in the very least if the Clinton camp was responsible for the “Obama-is-a-crazy-Muslim” emails that have been floating around. I am very, very tempted to not vote for Hillary if she comes back and wins the nomination. Extraordinarily tempted.
Conservatives: Nature’s Retards
Is there some kind of “Stupidest Conservative Contest” going on right now?
(Though now that I think about it, it seems like they’re ALWAYS competing to be the stupidest. But look at that Hypocritical Left guy last night. That was some high-grade stupid conservative wankery.)
Sorry for posting so much. I guess I got a little excited that there’s a new thread.
Hey, has this rube ever seen that picture of Donald Rumsfeld with Saddam Hussein? Did he make a big deal out of that?
Silly hats. Now we’ve got us a thread.
You’ve discovered the secret of Perpetual Stupid–just mock what they say, and they say more!
Um, it may not just be the crazy right alleging that Barack Hussein Jamal al bin Obama X is a terrorist because he and Bill Ayers used to jump out of planes to blow up Christian church nurseries together:
One good thing about the Clintons: you can always count on them to prioritize even the tiniest personal political advantage over the fortunes of the entire party.
Which is, of course, perfectly reasonable, since the movement they were a part of — the DLC and its spawn — were convinced that the biggest problem faced by the Democratic Party was how captured it was by its own icky, nasty, dirty, hippie constituency, what with its “unions” and working class types; much better to lose Congress for over a decade and set up for the worst President ever than for one moment taking their eyes off the prize of making the Democrats more billable to the Biggest of Biznesses.
The ’08 presidential election is nothing other than a referendum on bush/cheney and their policies. It’s hard to tell whether these assclowns KNOW that and therefore have nothing to stand on but silly little six degrees of kevin bacon coincidences, codewords and dogwhistles, or if they still haven’t realized that. No matter what they come up with, this crap won’t change a single vote. The people who read crap like Ruberry’s and nod somemnly were never going to vote for a Dem anyway, while many people who might otherwise vote for a relatively SANE Repub candidate take one look at John “There’s gonna be lots more wars” McCain and recognize him as another four years of the failed bush/cheney “agenda” and will RUN, not walk, to pull the “D” lever.
But at it’s core, that’s all it is. The people just feel they MUST repudiate the disaster that has been the previous 8 years. So this is all we’ll get, and none of it will work…
mikey
You’d think he’d be grateful for the hits!
By the way, if someone wants to help format it, you could probably take every alleged praised leftist terrorist and quadruple the number and still not begin to come up with a fraction of the tyrants, murderers, terrorists, coup-makers, drug barons, and general scum floating around Southern Florida from the Reagans’ friends in Nicaragua, Honduras, Guatemala, El Salvador, Colombia, Venezuela, Argentina, and, of course, the ex-Cubans.
Damn, he stole my joke!
By the way, David Horowitz’ little sh*tty online game to show links between all the dangerous leftie radicals links Bill Ayers only to 4 groups: World Can’t Wait, SDS, Weather[men], and Weather Underground.
http://www.discoverthenetworks.org/Thinkmap%20SDK%202.5%20Standard%20Edition/webapp/TM-1VER/index.asp?keyword=Ayers
This means that Obama and Ayers breathed the same air, which was doubtless thick with Weather Underground nanobots designed to replicate in Obama’s cerebrum.
So I’m late to the game – what’s wrong with the Weather Underground? I mean, yeah, delusional gang of white boys + Bernadine, but they certainly killed fewer people in their time than the cops, right? So if someone is endorsed by some police union, I’m sure we’re going to hear the outrage…
In related news, I just went and watched “Vantage Point” and I thought the bad guys won. Which makes it necessary to mention that Obama has never been at my house. Or been on any boards with me.

Conservatives: Nature’s Retards
Um, frankly, you need to rethink that. The mentally disabled can often learn by experience. That would make them smarter than conservatives.
The fact is, you will be sorry you picked a battle with patriots.
I tried reading the preceding comment thread but it was full of someone who called himself “Hypocritical Left”.
I can understand that people find themselves being hypocritical now and again but it seems weird to boast about it. Also, he was obsessed about some wanker called Bill Ayres and insisted that he be denounced. Then, when someone denounced Bill Ayres, he said that denouncing was an evil Maoist thing to do. So I guess that’s where the hypocrisy kicks in. Or the fumes.
Yes, Gary. Next time we’ll use tongs and bring lobster crackers.
“Next week, Ruberry will reveal that Obama also stood next to Ayers at a urinal in an Irish Bar on the south side of Chicago.”
Oh, yeah. That is plausible. Ever been in an Irish bar on the south side of Chicago? The life expectancy of a black man there (provided he even succeeded in getting in the door) is measured in minutes, if not seconds. Lived in Chicago for 12 years and it is the most racist place I have ever been (and I grew up under Jim Crow in Oklahoma), especially the south side Irish.

Sounds just like Southie in Boston. Hey, since Ruberry and his friends don’t seem to be busy at the moment, maybe they could cook up a unified theory of Northern-Southern-Irish-Racism. Or something.
Patriots!!! Where?
Surely you don’t mean those conservatives who never tire of shouting “traitor” at everybody who disagrees with them?
Honest decent people know there is a lot more to patriotism than shouting “traitor.”
Patriotism is the FIRST refuge of the scoundrel.
the faux ayers-obama scandal is a nifty distraction from the hypocritical-right shenanigans McCain’s up to with campaign financing.
Yeah, well….I say this with an evil unrepentant leer slowly spreading across my hideous narcissistic mug – My beliefs are well thought out and internally consistent. Now I see this clearly. My whole life is pointed in one direction. There never has been a choice for me.
Can I get that printed on a tee shirt?
mikey
Although, for evil unrepentant leers spreading across narcissistic mugs, you really can’t beat this
There really isn’t a picture of Bush without that smug sneer, is there? Else why would he put such an eminently slappable image up on his own webpage?
The fact is, America is awesome.
Why do liberals hate it so much?
Why does Michelle Obama have no pride in it until she dreams (dream on) of being first lady?
Liberals make me want to throe up.
But that’s the last throes for you, Gary!
the hypocritical-right shenanigans McCain’s up to with campaign financing.
Cue the maverick to fling all the resultant poo at Obama in five . . . four . . .

Why do schizoids wealth it so much?

Three thrie throe thrum, I smells da crud of a conservative scum.
Why do liberals hate it so much?
I think it was g who had a great response to this recently, and if I weren’t so lazy, I’d look it up. The main point was that it’s been conservatives who’ve been talking smack about America for the past 20+ year, but liberals get blamed for ‘hating America’.
christain h:
“but they certainly killed fewer people in their time than the cops, right? So if someone is endorsed by some police union, I’m sure we’re going to hear the outrage..”
after a nasty bomb-making accident which left several members dead, the weather underground decided to _not_ kill civilians. They called in their bombs ahead of time, hitting the pentagon, the capital building, particularly vicious prisons, etc. They were mostly responsible for property damage and a few prison breaks (Timothy Leary being a notable).
I think they claimed responsibility for blowing up the police memorial in the Chicago Haymarket… the second time.

-AnB
hmmm…Hillary’s received millions in campaign contributions from greedy private health insurers. Obama received a $200-buck donation from a relatively benign citizen who will have no meaningful influence on the candidate.
She’s becoming as desperate as the wingnuts.
Oh, I see your problem here. Your Democrats, see, in the person of this Oh-bama here, right here, are consorting with past terrorists. That’s your problem right there: we’ll fix ‘er up so they’re consorting with current terrorists, and your party vee-hicle will be all fine and dandy like the Republicans.
Maverick time!
“This is Sen. John McCain. I’m calling to urge you to support my friend Rep. Rick Renzi for Congress. Rick has represented the first district of Arizona with tenacity, honesty and integrity beyond reproach. I work with Rick every day and can report to you his total dedication to the people of Arizona and the United States. Please join me in supporting rural Arizona’s workhorse congressman on Nov. 7.”
McCain: Still a common criminal (aka typical gooper).
Apropos of nothing, make sure to tune in to the re-airings on C-Span of the State of the Black Union 2008, organized once again by Tavis Smiley. Some of the best intellectual and activist commentary on African American and general national topics you’ll see on TV.
McCain: Good help is hard to find!
Hey, call me crazy, but I think
The fact is,
America is awesome
would be a good start to a new, singable national anthem.
Guys, guys.
This is nothing.
I can prove that Barack Obama was living on the same planet that was once the home of Adolf Hitler!
Why is no one covering this? I sent a memo to Jonah Goldberg, seared onto a Belgian Waffle, but he still hasn’t returned my calls.
Also, I have it on good authority that statistically speaking, Barack Obama has breathed Juilus Caesar’s last breath! Why isn’t anyone asking why Barack suffocated the great military tactician?
Well sure, but try to rhyme the next line.
And you can’t use some.
America is awesome
If you argue you’re a bum
Our Country can do nothing wrong
That is why we’re singing this song

A cavernous garage, nearly empty and dimly lit. A man in a trench coat, hat pulled low, collar upturned, walks haltingly across the cement floor, his expensive shoes sending echoes cascading into the gloom. A shadowy figure steps out from behind an enormous concrete pillar. Glowing white numerals behind him identify the space as #666
Obama: Are you sure nobody followed you?
Man: I’m a professional.
Obama: Now listen, you tell Ayers that I’ve put all that behind me. I don’t want anything to do with his schemes.
Man: Then why did you contact our associates?
[Obama’s eyes dart back and forth nervously, causing his whites to flash in the dim light]
Obama: I’ve got problems man. You don’t know what it’s like. I’ve only raised $60 million this month. [through clinched teeth] That bitch just won’t give up!
Man: [withdrawing checkbook from behind his lapel] The boss is prepared to make… a small contribution.
Obama: Thank you. Oh Jesus, thank you!
Man: [pen hovering over checkbook] But… in turn, he may want a favor from you one day.
Obama: Oh no, I told you, I’ve changed! I’m a Christian now! I… I love America! I don’t want to do that no more!
Man: Well then… maybe your pretty little wife could help us. [a gold tooth flashes]
Obama: [grabbing the other man’s lapel] You keep her out of it. I’ll be the one in charge, if you need anything done, you come through me
Man: Very well then, Mr. President. [flings check in Obama’s face] $200 should do it. When the time is right, you’ll hear from us.
Obama: [folding check carefully] Ah, what the hell. I hate this cracker country anyhow.
This has the aroma of Mark Penn about it. Clinton’s biggest failing is the people she chose to run her campaign. Penn is so inept, that he has to be working for the Republicans to intentionally trash Clinton’s campaign. Nobody could be that awful by accident.
The South Side of Chicago… home sweet home, I kid you not.
Maybe Dr Dick was referring to the incident some months ago of a skinny asthmatic white kid (of about 14 years) getting jumped by a bunch of black thugs and beat nearly half to death. Happened in a place called Beverly – ever hear of it, Dr Dick? Yeah, real lethal place for African Americans. How many blacks killed or assaulted by whites last year there, anyway?
Throw your slanderous filth and run – typical leftist.
Clinton’s biggest failing is the people she chose to run her campaign.
She has repeatedly pointed out that she has extensive experience with the VRWC and its Noise Machine – it’s disappointing that she’s demonstrating that by emulating it.

Mark Penn a typical DLC consultant in that regard. Check the record of Bob Shrum. These people are literally paid to lose.
P.S. Joe Lieberman is a former DLC chairman. Need anything more be said about the DLC?
DrDick,
This is for you, the guy who thinks blacks are attacked on the South Side of Chicago by racist Irish people:
http://cbs2chicago.com/local/teen.attack.sentence.2.636258.html
Some quotes:
You can see a picture of the victim on this page, too.
You are racist filth, Dr Dick. Have a nice day, fuckhead.
My beliefs are well thought out and internally consistent. Now I see this clearly. My whole life is pointed in one direction. There never has been a choice for me.
I just want to point out that that quote is a mashup of HL and Travis Bickle from Taxi Driver…but you probably already know that.
HL:
I’m so glad you posted that article. Can you find a story anywhere about a straight guy getting beat up by homosexuals? See, I’m tired of all of the homophobia in the world and I was hoping you could just make it go away like you did with racism.
Kisses!

Nothing about the YouTube video? The one w/ some weirdo claiming, well…see for yourselves.
This’n’s purty good too.
because Clif loves the rest of us, Chris.
MB, I defer to the wonketteers for the best response to that incredibly lame Larry S. video.
Because you’re a boring parody troll, Chris?
Get some new material. Or go away. Take HL with you, ‘kay?
You two remind me of the bad old days when shoelimpy and annieangel were parody trolling the place.
Damn, an outbreak of dessert. I haven’t even had dinner yet.
Hell, it’s not even the cocktail hour and all you people can think about is Pie, delicious Pie?
Well, Ok, if’n you want, but don’t come crying to me with your obesity and diabetes…
mikey
Hypocritical St. James does a fine job of arguing like a Winger. It’s not either/or, dipshit. Just because some black kids beat up a white kid doesn’t mean that there are no white racists in Cook County. Unless, of course, there really are no white racists there. ’cause then I’d be wrong.
Stryx,
The point is, I can provide specific examples of blacks assaulting – and near killing – whites on the South Side. If you read the article, you’ll see that the black thugs targeted the heart patient child specifically because he was a “goofy white kid.” Take a look at the child’s picture.
Now the result of this was marches on DC, right? Speeches and soul-searching like in Jena, right (hmm, the only ones who got hurt there were innocent white kids too….)?
Where’s the real racism, hypocrites?
Man, this is too easy, lefties.
Mikey, take a look at these pictures.
It’ll take your mind off the pie.
Chris, did you forget to post your name? Posts get eaten that way. It happens to the best of us. I suppose it could happen to you too.
HL, you are what is wrong with this country. It is you, and people like you, who keep this country from realizing its potential.
Ayers may be a prick. He may have been a deluded, hypocritical asshole when he committed his offenses against your perfectly just American society, for all I know. Of course, he may have truly believed in the cause he espoused. I don’t know the man, so I couldn’t tell you. One thing, though, I’m sure of: Whatever Ayers was, or is, I’d bet every red cent of the $300 economic stimulus joke I’ll be receiving that he’s a much better human being than you are.
Man, this is too easy, lefties.
As easy as flinging poo. Just as effective. Just as moronic. It’s a no-brainer for you, Hy.
you can respond to HL til you’re blue in the face and he’ll keep repeating the same old bull. ignore the worthless little shit.
Look, I’m sorry about the pie.
HL- It’s so easy because you’re doing it wrong. Because of this, therefore that may be easy to figure but that doesn’t make it right.
I’ll stick with the original point. Are you saying that no white Irish-Chicagoans have ever beat up a non-white Chicagoan?
You’re right Lesley. I just wanted to see what kind of spewings I could provoke. I’ll stop poking him now. Consider him ignored by moi.
yeah, please don’t get him started again on Ayers. Jesus.
styx, you’re getting sucked into his schtick. for the sake of our sanity, please do not engage the asshole.
Where’s the real racism, hypocrites?
Good questions. Let’s look at the FBI statistics for hate crimes in 2006
Hmm.. well, it sure looks like the “real” victims are… black people. But let’s look at the racial demographics of the United States:
So black people represent 12.4% of the population and are the targets of 66.4% of racially motivated hate crimes. Now where did you get the idea that black people weren’t the victims of racist attacks anymore? Oh right, the liberal media.
HL, no one is going to dance in the street with you. It’s an incredible bitter pill for you to swallow.
there has never been a choice for you.
Is it me or does “The point is” sound a whole lot like “The fact is”?
That is central to my point.
The fact is – and this is central to my point – there has never been a choice for me.
Schmucks like HL aren’t interested in a dialogue or facts or the truth. They’re here to goad you because they have nothing better to do on a Saturday afternoon than sit in their basements with the cheesie bag, the kleenex and the vaseline.
Dollars to doughnuts you’ll come full circle with this guy several hundred times before the day is through. Don’t waste your Saturday afternoon on a blog troll. It’s Saturday for God’s sake!
*runs away*
Well, Chris isn’t the only one whose posts are getting eaten. What’s gong on?
The hypocrisy is in the leftist reaction. “Hate crimes” against blacks – the statistics that you wave around so confidently – result in flowery speeches, marches, grim rumbling of riots, etc. Blacks deliberately targeting whites – as in Jena and Beverly – are, well, boys being boys.
As for the hate crime numbers themselves, let’s take a look at Jena. The placing of a noose on a tree – that’s an anti-black hate crime according to the FBI. Number of actual injuries:0. When those black criminals jumped an uninvolved white teenager and just about beat him to death – soley because he was white – that was not a hate crime. Was the heart patient that the black thugs near killed in Chicago considered to be the victim of hate crime? Nope.
Wow, your numbers are really convincing. What a joke you lefties are.
HL – Flinger of Pooo
And that’s how the Hypocritical Left became the fresh prince of bel-air.
Mr. Left, have you considered that maybe the aforementioned region of Chicago is equally dangerous for people of all races?
Man, the idea of a not-white president just terrifies you, don’t it? Well, at the very least, you’re not a hypocrit about your ugly racism and foul hatred. I imagine we’ll see a lot of you guys in the coming months.
Hee. I read “Finger of Pooo.”
Thumb+ass. Makes sense actually.
Ho Hum. Another day, another stupid fool trying to dis Barack Obama, another incoherent screed by Hysterical L.
I would say he has quite a few problems. His energy seems to go in the wrong places.
Poor whitey, the Man’s always keeping him down.
So, HL, when do we get to hear about Jane Fonda?
You wish I was incoherent. I was going to push Bill Ayers back in your faces again – an unrepentent criminal, a tenured professor, and a mainstay of the American Left – but then I had to deal with Dr Dick’s racism.
Leftists are such repulsive hypocrites that they dismiss a child heart patient being attacked because of his race – because the child belongs to the wrong race. Yeah, it’s me that is what’s wrong with America, not people that excuse criminal behavior because it was committed for the “right” political reasons or by the “right” race.
Nah, that’s just par for the course for the…. Hypocritical Left!
I wrote you a screed… but I eated it.
Anyone planning to go to one of those MoveOn house parties where they call voters for Obama?
Athiest, not necessary. Everyone here in the heartland is already lined up to vote for Obama. We can’t wait. It’ll be one non-stop party.
The fact is, liberals are hipocrits, they say they are not racists but they are the worst, as usual, they project their faults and insecurities onto us, they are biased, and hate usa.
Atheist. Sorry, duh

well the fact is, you have the most Athi of anyone here, so it fits either way.
Do all conservatives hate America, or just the ones who come to this site?
You wish I was coherent. I was going to pretend a few chance encounters in the past meant something about Obama, but then I saw the chance to race-bait.
I am such a repulsive hypocrite that I respond to facts about racism in the US by arguing, in effect, that black is white, and repeating talking points I got from David Duke.
Now I’m going to laugh, laugh, laugh, that I finally got someone to acknowledge my existence, because that means I do, in fact, exist and I won!
Part of being a griefer is pretending any response I get is a personal victory. Some of you took as many as 2-3 minutes to read and respond to me, this means I have taken over your life and am your god.

I don’t consider time spent gathering statistics to be time wasted. For one thing, it isn’t like their talking points take very long to disprove. For another, as a liberal, I genuinely enjoy information gathering. You can never test your assumptions too often and facts are our friends!
But I do apologize if I annoy other posters who come here for teh funny and not teh obvious. When people start positing massive anti-white conspiracies within the majority-white FBI… weh heh hell, that’s when I get bored and wander off.

Maybe it’s black people using white make-up, like in that old Eddie Murphy skit on SNL. Maybe it started off as just a way to get in on the free newspapers and cocktail party buses, but those tricky black folk have wormed their way into the highest offices of America’s top cops! Watch out, whitey! It’s curtains for your ofay ass! Hordes of homeboys are just waiting to jump you on the street, intimidate you with their hippety-hop music and stare luridly at your women! Oh, they said it would happen, but damn my soul, I was in love with Tina Turner and just wouldn’t see what was “white” before my eyes! Curse you, International Darkie! *shakes fist at uncaring sky*
Man. Don’t ponder that stroke too long or you’ll wind up voting for Ron Paul.
Pedestrian – I’ve pointed out the flaws in the statistics. You are happy with them because they reinforce your biases. I’m happy because I have a chance to point out the hypocricy of the left again.
I’ll bet S,N! wrote plenty about Jena and not one thing about the child assaulted in Chicago for being white. That’s the hypocritical left for you.
OK, here’s something new. Go to Obama’s website, and take a look at the “People” tab. See how there’s a listing to satisfy most every identity in patchwork of tribal bigotry that makes up the Democratic Party. Notice how one identity – white men – is missing. Nice.

g, Bickle just kept coming to mind when reading the trolls we’ve been dealing with lately. He’s an asocial loner trying to keep himself ‘pure’ in an imperfect world and he reaches the conclusion that the only way to do it is to kill the things that he sees as impure. It’s a creepy movie.

A guy no one here ever heard of before yesterday is a mainstay of the American Left?
Ahem! Another guy no one here ever heard of…
Trolls aside, I did think the south side of Chicago was a poor black neighborhood, not a poor white neighborhood, like the south side of Boston. Is that right?
So, does that picture at the top of this thread mean that Phyllis and Roberboy are ‘doing it?’
It looks like Beverly is a white enclave in the South Side with a large Irish American population.
Rightwingsnarkle, why would you put such a picture in my head? What have I ever done to you, that you should make me suffer so?
Where’d I put that brain bleach?
gbear you were right about the Travis Bickle thing.
I am reminded more of the John Doe character from 7even. The comments from HL conjure up a mental image of a sparsely-furnished room with newspaper cuttings and print-outs pinned to every square inch of the distempered walls. Notebooks, minute meticulous handwriting crammed onto every page, detailing each of Bill Ayers’ crimes.
Though I could be wrong, since HL’s literary style seems more designed as a homage to Hannibal Lecter. Those frequent sotto voce asides to Susan of Texas are a tad too creepy for my tastes.
“Hypocritical Left” said,
Hmmmm, wuz this name banned, or just trollypant’s access to it?
Can the proprietors ban people by names / incarnations? I thought they only ban IPs.
When you post a comment and it doesn’t appear straightaway, there is a choice. Maybe it triggered the spam filter and has gone into moderation for a while…
Or possibly the disappearance is another example of persecution from The Left, to be recorded (with time and date) in the appropriate Notebook.
Well, one post of his from last night, as gbear pointed out, was a direct quote from the movie. I wonder if he’s quoting from other fictional characters.
I once twitted David Horowitz when he launched his “101 professors” thing by emailing him about the case of a dangerous liberal professor I knew about – it was a character from a novel by Richard Russo. Maybe Hysterical Luftballon is playing a part.
Life (such as it is) must be hard for your average troll these days. Against the background racket of the most corrupt administration in US history and the high pitched squeaks of its supporters, battles the voice of the lone troll. It’s like farting in the middle of a tornado and expecting anyone to notice.
aAn homage to Hannibal LecterI am mortified.
The fact is, if Hypocrite had a satisfying life and was truly secure in his philosophical assumptions, he wouldn’t be sitting behind his computer trolling leftist blogs and behaving obnoxiously to people with whom he disagrees.
Let’s see what we’ve got here:
a mainstay of the American Left
…of whom no one had heard in the last 40 years until a wingnut dredged him up for purely partisan reasons. And of whom no one outside blogosphere echo chambers has yet to hear.
an unrepentent criminal, a tenured professor
Of which there are none whose politics are right-wing. Uh-huh.
Hypocrite, give over and admit that you as a privileged white male wouldn’t know a hate crime if it bit you on your fat pampered ass. Nah, can’t do it, can you? That would negate your assumed privilege to whine about anything that doesn’t directly benefit your high-maintenance comfort level. By the way, sorry about your penis.
BTW Clif, swear to “god,” when I first clicked on this post I thought that was Dubya and Nancy Ray-gun.
g, take a look at the name that had the Taxi Driver quotes. It was posted by Hypocritical Bickle. That was me snarking HL with a combination of his own lines and lines from Taxi Driver. I should have found a different way to do it so it was a bit more apparent. I apologize for this and for everything that Ayers ever did.
Mz Nicky, this guy seems to have a vehemence that indicates he’s got a personal problem with Ayers. That and his frothing about a specific crime that took place in Chicago makes me think he’s a local Chicago boy with some kind of connection to Ayers or maybe to Obama. I think he’s a step up in wackiness from the usual Paid Troll like Gary and Chris and Kevin.
And speaking of Gary and Chris and Kevin – does someone have a phone number for Dispatch? Because I’d like to register a complaint – they’ve really just been phoning it in lately. There must be budget cuts at the RNC these days.

Goddam, Miznicky, I’m not sure what I want, but I know I want your permission to use the crap outta this. It might be a sig, a tag line, a tee shirt, a freakin MOVEMENT, but fer gawds sake, in the middle of all my narcissistic self-reflection and scotch drinking in front of the fire with oil lamps and candles, I’m laughing my lungs out around this.

robert green: What’s with the aggressive rudeness? Chill out already. No need to go insulting the host. Don’t make us alert the bouncers.
mikey my dear: Use the heck out of it. It’s not mine anyway. It’s the tag line to a great bumper sticker I saw somewhere that goes
“Hey, nice Hummer!
Sorry about your penis”
But as you have astutely noted, it’s a phrase that’s pretty all-occasion appropriate.
(and it’s most certainly, and always, a “he”)
No real argument here. Just a question: Why? And again, it’s not that I disagree. I’m just wondering — if we all assume the asshole tends to be male (which I’m willing to do for the sake of argument), why is that? Nature? Nurture?
[can of worms now successfully opened]
Maybe not. He’s pretty toothless. He might be able to gum it, though.
All of the assholes are most certainly NOT male.
I don’t think there’s an argument there.
Assholism, as a movement or a behavior IS in fact displayed differently between genders.
Men are, well, stupid. We are. If you don’t recognize this, well, you’re stupid. Imagine that. So we jump in, yell our current prevailing worldview in the face of, well, somebody, and step back in satisfaction.
Women have learned how to navigate a world filled with, well, people like me. They don’t just start yelling. They take a different approach. It can be a lot of different things, but the most interesting one is the one where she builds a coalition around her opinion. That’s very interesting to me, and a lesson in the learning. Because when you have the weight, you don’t have to fight.
Archtypically, men, like myself, cannot do that. It’s a patience thing, and a stupid thing. And it’s a different kind of stupid. You might have a 150 IQ, and, frankly? Still a male…
But there’s plenty of lessons out there to be learned….
mikey
Hey, g. LOTS of rain. Falling steadily since three. Coming your way….
Mmmmmhmmm! It’s grey and cold out there. It was drizzling this afternoon for about a half hour. I’ll batten down the hatches.

I
All of the assholes are most certainly NOT male.
Yeah, I know. I was just curious about the reasoning.
My theory? Men tend to be more aggressively stupid and therefore call more attention to themselves than women. There are notable exceptions, of course (Ann Coulter and Pam Atlas to the white courtesy phone . . . )
All of the assholes are most certainly NOT male.
speaking as a non-male who’s exhibited assholish behavior in the past [and will probably do so in future]….I concur.
but, interestingly enough, there’s a difference in female bad behavior – ferinstance, certain kinds of bad behavior might be responded to by being called a “cunt”, whereas different kinds of bad behavior might be responded to by being called an “asshole.”
having been called both, in my long career, I do recognize that there’s a difference. I would probably call Pam the former; and Ann the latter.
g- I’ve got a friend who can’t get past a construction site without stopping to rumage for rocks for his garden. He’s got me doing it too now. If he saw that rock, he would call me up (I have the pickup truck) and try to find a way to bring it home. I’ll have to send him that picture.
No, the white phone.
I can top this one!

This is the story of Vladimir Zhirinovsky – an unlikely folk hero perhaps, he’s being called the Hitler of Russia. He’s a right-wing extremist, ultra-nationalist, power-hungry blowhard. He’s Russian Limbaugh.

gbear – that rock made our community famous – that photo was on CNN!
They had a real hard time getting it off the road – in the end they had to blow it up. They tried 3 times before they succeeded. For about 3 months one of the fragments remained on the side of the road; then a year ago they repaved the road and cleared the debris out.
We get smaller size boulders coming down off the cliffs all the time – your friend could probably find a few that would fit in his truck.
What are you, some sort of Frenchman what don’t pronounce an aitch?
If you really want to set me off on a spittle-flecked rant, follow the bad example of modern journalism and use the words “an historian”.
“why would you put such a picture in my head? What have I ever done to you, that you should make me suffer so?”
Sorry. I didn’t set out to pollute.
It’s just that wingnuts have needs, too. Even when they involve lots of Astrolube and shots of Jaggermeister.
Yet another sentence I love by Kingsley Amis:
After may years, people still need to be told to talk about a historical novel, not an historical novel, and a hotel, not an hotel, whereas mention of either a or an hotelier should be suppressed with bloodshed.
If you really want to set me off on a spittle-flecked rant,
Good golly, I REALLY do.
I mean, this is really about my own entertainment, right?
So tell me about this “an historian”.
I’m all giggles. I mean ears…
mikey
All of the assholes are most certainly NOT male. I don’t think there’s an argument there.
Of course not. There are many females who are assholes.
Men are, well, stupid. We are.
No, you don’t get to claim that as a gender thing. That’s essentialism, and a cop-out. Some men are stupid. Well okay, many men are stupid. But many women are stupid too, so let’s just go ahead and stipulate that many human beings are stupid. Unless you’re arguing that men are stupid in an inherently male way, which would be a whole other debate, and a whole different kind of manifest behaviorial mea culpa.

I don’t think we’re on different pages, Mznicky.
Men ARE stupid.
Men brought you christianity, the crusades, war, armies, imperialism, dominance, violence and tribal warfare.
Would women? Maybe. We don’t get to know.
So men built a set of rules whereby they owned the process, and they fucked it up massively. Ergo? Sorry, it’s evident on it’s face. Men are stupid.
Woment have not had the opportunity to establish this this truth for their own gender….
mikey
Definitely vodka.
So tell me about this “an historian”.
It’s a good example of hyper-correction. It is the fault of COBAGS who think that because saying “an homage” makes them sound well-educated then they will sound EVEN MORE educated if they generalise that rule. And when I say COBAGS I really mean JOURNALISTS. It is a sign of ILL-BRED SOCIAL CLIMBING.
[/spittle]
Ultimately the English gentry are to blame, since they have subtle rules about when to say “an [h-word]” which serve as shibboleths. Markers of the U / Non-U distinction. Naturally the English middle-classes try to mimic those rules, but they end up over-generalising because they don’t have the right training. And the phenomenon spreads out from there.

mikey, we spent some time in Norway, and there was a certain distinction between the clear (white) akavit and the brown, aged akavit.
it was all gawdawful, of course, but there was certainly a differenceof opinion amongst Norwegians as to whether they preferred the brown or the white.
Which do you prefer?
I’m trying to choose between Chardonnay, Albarino, or Frascatti.
Mmm. One of the highlights of my trip to visit my 82 year old mom was to discover that she’d bought a 12 year old Lagavullen on sale when a local liquor store shut down.
Look. Some of us just are set in our ways.
Bobby prefers the dry food.
Bimler drinks the weaponized akavit.
Matt T. may he live in eternal peace, smokes the bud.
As does diffbrad and t4toby, although I think they have something to learn from Matt. Just me saying.
I’m a garbage can, but my mainstream mindbender of choice is the Laphroaig ten year old.
We seek solutions. We try not to lose control over our existence. But sometimes? It’s just hard to make it thru the day…
mikey
Would women [bring the horrors of the Crusades, etc.]? Maybe. We don’t get to know.
No, we don’t. And as long as women are not recognized as equal players, with at least equally important and relevant ideas about how the course of human events should proceed, humanity will continue to stumble along the same, predictably violent and competitive path as always.
Regardless: For (some) men to now acknowledge “uh, duh, we’re dumb, sorry we’ve fucked up” doesn’t change a thing, though, does it?
What would? The election of the first female president in this country’s history (not to mention it’s happened in most corners of the world at one time or another, including the so-called Third World and the rich Middle East)? Or are we still too adolescent, in geopolitik terms, to handle it?
Goodnight, everyone.
I had a dman good day – I spent the afternoon cleaning out my closets and actually finished the job. Tomorrow is the massive trip to Goodwill.
No rains yet, mikey. But I’m sure they’re on their way.
Yep. The hardest lesson we all have to learn is we can’t change a goddam thing.
I am always fascinated by the people interviewed, typically on NPR who say they wouldn’t change a thing.
BAM. What? Seriously? Ouch.
It’s not an option, but dammit. We got lots of shit wrong. Oh, but to put some of it right.
Those are called regrets. And if you don’t own them, sleep with them, crumple and cry at their feet, I’m not sure you’re living an examined life.
How do we grow? We fuck up, we suffer publically, and we try not to fuck up in the same way again. Lessons are hard. They have sharp edges, and they tell us things we’d rather not know.
The alternative is we don’t learn. So we fall over the same stupid root over and over again. That is truly what we define as stupid.
Take my hand and let’s try to walk thru this madness together, sharing what we have learned and what we can learn.
It’s not a contest.
It’s life…

MzNicky, from a local standpoint, the women wingnuts who’ve established themselves in local and state politics around here have proven to be equals to the men in the what-the-fuck department. I’ve argued with them about extending domestic benefits to state employees in same-sex relationships (a move that Jesse Ventura’s administration pushed for) and they have the same I-know-I’m-right-now-get-fucking-lost attitude as the men. Michele Bachmann (R-joke) was one of these women. I think it’s a power issue more than a gender issue (and I say that realizing that men have barely relinquished any of that power position yet).
Bimler drinks the weaponized akavit.
Oh yes. Now the brown-tinged Norwegian stuff is Linie. Its point of difference is that they seal it up in barrels and load the barrels into various nooks and crannies of the container-ship Tampa, which sails down to various Southern Hemisphere ports and then back again; the idea is that the double exposure to the heat of an equatorial crossing makes the liquor all smooth and mellow. You may think that “mellow akvavit” is an oxymoron, but that opinion does not deserve to be dignified by a response.
Incidentally, this is the same freighter Tampa that picked up 438 Afghani refugees from a sinking ferry in the Indian Ocean, back in 2001. This won a UN Nansen Award for the captain and crew… it also got the ship boarded by
piratesAustralian SAS troops because the Aussie government of the time was afraid of Afghan cooties. But I digress. Anyway, you can drink Linie and tell yourself that you are merely paying homage to a noble humanitarian act.For reasons of personal ancestry, I normally drink the Danish Aalborg stuff. They make a Tafel Akvavit for
breakfastordinary drinking and a Jubileum for special occasions. To tell the truth I prefer the Linie, but personal tastes must take second place to heritage.Tragically, the company that had the license to import Aalborg products into NZ has stopped! They reckoned there was not enough of a market. So right now I’m drinking Bommerlunder, which is actually a German akvavit… though it’s made in Flensburg, which is practically Danish anyway. Indeed, if you’re travelling in that part of Germany, a lot of the cars proudly show the Danish flag on their bumper-stickers, along with the words Sydslesvig, on account of many families still not coming to terms with the Prussian annexation back in 1848. The irredentists have their own flag and their political party is guaranteed a seat in the German Bundestag.
But I digress. What I meant to say is that Bommerlunder just doesn’t taste quite right… I reckon they put fennel in it (blargh) as well as Cumin.
along with the words Sydslesvig, on account of many families still not coming to terms with the Prussian annexation back in 1848
The point of that story is basically that “My crazy, stubborn, history-denying relatives are even crazier than your crazy, stubborn, history-denying relatives.”
Sorry Mikey, I couldn’t resist:
In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida, honey, don’t you know that I love you?
In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida, baby, don’t you know that I’ll always be true?
Oh, won’t you come with me and take my hand?
Oh, won’t you come with me and walk this land?
Please take my hand!
I can’t even list the list of shit I don’t know. Places I haven’t been.
I probably can’t make you all get what a special experience it is to hang here. I get the Danish Kiwi POV, the Aussie Cat POV, the Boston, Miami, Minneapolis POV.
Honestly? I’m a sad little provincial existence. I did my world traveling young, and people tried to kill me. Sorry, I lost interest.
But here’s this amazing opportunity to meet people from pretty much everywhere. And those of you who are not americans? The fact that you care enough about what the fucking shining city on the hill used to be about makes me smile, and makes me care even more.
Hell. We’re gonna lose this fight. But we’re gonna lose it with the kind of dignity I want to learn to carry…
