Wow. I had no idea that all white people from New Jersey were so spectacularly wealthy and priveleged. Thanks for opening my eyes to that, Amy Benfer. Without your glib conflation of a whole state's white population with your condescending assumptions about privelege, I never would have realized how grossly unfair it is for middle class white New Jerseyans to take away all those slots at American colleges from more deserving Salvadorean immigrants or "interesting" children of mobsters. Having grown up in New Jersey, I love it when clueless, Brooklyn-based writers condescend to write about the palce. I was laboring under the obviously erroneous assumption that it was a State just as full of middle class and lower middle income towns as it was full of exclusive bedroom communities. I was under the impression that the majority of New Jerseyans sent their kids to public schools just like everybody else. Thank you for opening my eyes, Ms. Benfer!
Dowd is not a liberal or on the left, she is the epitome of a smug, centrist insider who refuses to upset the applecart. She is a hack and a mediawhore of the worst order. When did she ever stand up to Bush in any truly meaningful way, or put herself out when it wasn't poltically expedient? Ugh.
I would throw my shoe at that idiot, but I might need it for standing on the breadlines of the coming depression that the stupid, incompetent fuck created. So I guess I'll have to settle for a hearty one finger salute to the worst President in American history. Good riddance to bad rubbish. And fuck every Republican until the end of time.
... that pro-lifers are against all forms of individual choice and free will. Which is pretty much what I'd always suspected anyway. LOL
Wow. What a revelation. Here's some other newsflashes: puppies are cute! Republicans are jerks! Andy Dick is annoying!
You're not wrong Kate, but seriously... is this news to anybody who HAS watched the Superbowl sometime in this decade? Way to keep yourself plugged into the pusle of the culture, Salon...
And worst of all, you missed the one truly funny ad of the night - the Monster.com spot moosehead spot.
Classic and truly timely.
... let's rename National Airport (I've never heard anybody call it Reagan without laughing anyway) something that will drive the wingnuts crazy... how about "William Jefferson Clinton Airport" or, better still, "Franklin Delano Roosevelt Airport". Fuck the GOP and fuck Reagan and all the evil that they stand for.
I like to think of the Dad in Breaking Bad as just another variation on the Dad from the Malcom in the Middle - combined with the dark opportunism of Seinfeld's Tim Watley... Brian Cranston is the mirror of America's rotten soul.
Then you have to be prepared to start killing Republicans and Conservatives. It's clear that they are impervious to all forms of reasoning and logical persuasion. The only solution is to start building re-education camps for these dumbfucks and start gassing them by the trainload. It's really the only humane solution and will be best for everyone in the long run.
Somebody needs to give grandma Paglia her meds... she's talking gibberish again.
Let's face it - every foolish house negro who tap dances for the GOP slave drivers pays the price of the Uncle Tom and Michael Steele is no different. The GOP is now the party of the descendents of confederates, slavemasters and Klansman and their sympathizers. Any black man or woman foolish enough to think that the GOP can be "changed from within" is a damn fool. I have no pity or sympathy for Steele, Watts, Thomas or any other of these minstrel clowns. God damn all of them and the GOP, too.
LW: All this other advice is bullshit. Do what I say and you'll feel better. Invite all the Cons in your family (and their like-minded friends, spouses, and co-workers) to a big family dinner, and then feed them a big lagsagna filled with Rat Poison. That is the only way to deal with human vermin like Republicans. We won the election. No more apologies, no more kowtowing. If a damn Republican doesn't like it - sensible decent people have license to kill them with impunity now.
Did you say something about an Arrested Development movie?
Do not toy with us, Sarah!
...lazy ass "reporters" mistake a press release for a scientific study... Mmmmm isn't that some tasty McNews?
Fuck You Horowitz. And Fuck You, Joan Walsh for letting that cretin slither his way back into Salon. I thought we got rid of that fucknuts for good. Fuck Salon. I'm done. I can get Keith Knight and Tom Tomorrow elsewhere anyway.
Seriously. Fuck all the conservative whiners. If they can't keep up with the times, let them fucking die out like the dinosaurs they are. It's called evolution, bitches. Deal with it. Too many goddamn people on the planet anyway - the rest of us are tired of useless conservative deadwood sucking up air and resources.
... may be fat, stupid, ignorant and incapable of logical thinking anymore, but they still vote based on the nonsensical ravings of these idiot blowhards - and that makes them dangerous.
But since I can't see any way to silence or shame the wingnut media blowhards or their handlers, and I can't see any way of curing the wingnut rank and file of their terminal stupidity and ignorance, it's pretty clear to me that we need to find a way to take away their right to vote until they prove to the rest of us that they can use it responsibly. ;)
