The real question is

not does the G spot exist; the real question is, if someone calls themselves a 'sexologist', do they still exist as a person of any credibility?

Don't know about Jonathan,

he seems like a bit of a loser to me, buying magazines to look at vaginas. But real men like pussy, and they like it hairy, and they like it to be a little musty, a little sweaty, and to taste a little salty. Shaved and perfumed? No thanks. Not interested. I want a woman, not a mail-order vinyl doll with working parts.

Who cares

what strippers and porn stars do? I mean really, whose existence are they central to? Not mine. They are cartoon characters. Get a grip.

Holsinger

is obviously in the closet, like most of the explicitly homophobic religious right. He just isn't getting it in the ass enough, so he lashes out in frustration, and he can't help but reveal his down and dirty little fantasies.

Original article: X-rated executions in Iran

OK

Someone tell Paris Hilton that Tehran is a Caribbean resort ...

Wednesday, June 13, 2007 07:33 PM

Dear Beadmaker ...

you might recall that there is another word for kitty that starts with a P, ends in a Y, and has USS in the middle ...

Original article: X-rated executions in Iran

Strawman ...

Lonewolfy rants:

To all the writers who are saying that Iranian treatment of women - such as porn stars in this case - is no worse than sexism in the US ...

But of course, no-one actually said that. (If you're talking about Linney Uston's post, I'll happily fax you the dictionary entry on irony)

So when exactly

do we get to impeach the asshole?

Thursday, June 21, 2007 02:54 PM

A condom for your cock-tail ?

But seriously - to the person who claims that alcohol is a 'date rape drug', perhaps you have a problem with the concept of choice? It's up to the individual to decide how much they want to drink. That's rather different than imbibing a drug unknowingly, wouldn't you think? Let's at least try and treat women like grown-ups.

Hypocrisy

You can do *anything* for Republican political processes, but if something should be done for Democratic political purposes, well, then it's time to scream loudly about unjust politicization of the process.

Thursday, June 21, 2007 06:06 PM

The ever popular anonymous ..

says "Alcohol can act as a date rape drug", and then objects that I quote them as saying that alcohol is a date rape drug. Well, it's hard to argue with that. Or with someone who can't even figure out a fake name that's better than "anonymous".

Amazing

Thailand and Mexico are out there making these hugely positive social changes. Here in the USA we have George f*&%ing Bush and the Banana Republicans, and every time it rains we have a power outage. Which exactly is the third world country?

Saturday, June 23, 2007 12:42 PM

It's not the word "blog",

it's the people who do it. Blogging is 99% verbal diarrhea (or diarrhoea, as the Brits call it), it's lame-ass crap from people like Manjoo who can't cut it writing real articles.

Tuesday, June 26, 2007 07:03 AM

I'm supposed to take seriously

someone who has a legally lowercase name? GMAFB.

Wednesday, June 27, 2007 07:19 AM

Hopefully one day ...

Cheney's carcass will be rotting on the bank of a river. That will be a joyful day for the whole world.

Wednesday, June 27, 2007 11:17 AM

But Glenn, you're not a blogger ...

you're a journalist who writes a daily column for an established online magazine. Let's be realistic about this, OK?

Original article: Single women eat babies!

Parson Jim,

you are one sad specimen of humanity. Almost as sad as the pitifully ubiquitous 'anonymous'.

Friday, June 29, 2007 04:50 PM

One good reason

to leave all the Bush/Cheney executive privilege nonsense in place - the next Democratic president can declare Scalia, Thomas et al to be enemy combatants and ship them off to Guantanamo. That would truly be poetic justice ...

Original article: Wedding trashers

Why?

Does anyone think that this article was worth:

a) writing

b) publishing

c) commenting on

?????

Monday, July 2, 2007 12:48 PM

Well,

at least Tobias probably knows a fair bit about protection. I'm sure those girls taught him a thing or two ...

Tuesday, July 3, 2007 11:05 AM

Irrelevant

It doesn't matter what Clinton did. This is a prime example of the "Two Wrongs make a Right" fallacy, the same one that is used to justify torture ("they did it first").

Original article: The fine art of lying

St. Paul Hotel

Nice hotel. I was trapped there once, in January. It was twenty below in Minnesota, and people walked around in T-shirts, enjoying the sunshine. Meanwhile it had snowed in New York, so they canceled all the flights back to there. I spent an extra day in St. Paul. I went to visit the arts center, and ate at a nice Mexican restaurant (Yes! In St. Paul!). This is absolutely all true, every word of it. Except for the T-shirt thing.

Unbiased?

The WSJ? What planet are you living on?

Friday, July 6, 2007 04:55 PM

Impeachment for Cheney is useless

The only way to get rid of him is with garlic, a silver bullet, and a stake through the heart. Where is Peter Cushing when you need him most?

Original article: No apologies, Katie Couric!

Huh?

Are there people who still get their news from TV? Really?

Monday, July 16, 2007 09:28 AM
Original article: Quote of the day

Actually ...

"neoconservative intellectual" is an oxymoron. Nobody with an actual working intellect would ever come up with the crap that these bozos do.

Thursday, August 2, 2007 07:32 PM

Why

is Salon giving this cretin a forum? I refuse to even read the article, I don't feel like having to puke this evening.

Monday, August 6, 2007 04:28 PM
Original article: Rolling over, again

If ...

all sixteen of those Democrats had voted no, it would have been a tied vote. If all 12 missing senators had been present and had voted party lines, it would have been a tied vote. And, of course, Cheney would have decided it. Why? Because a certain dipshit asshole *independent* from CT voted with the Republicans, yet again.

The only way to prevent this debacle would have been not to allow the vote to take place.

Original article: Alberto Gonzales resigns

I presume ...

he wants to spend more time with his family?

Wednesday, August 29, 2007 02:10 PM

Was this article ...

intended to be post-coherent in an ironic way? Or is it just badly written?

Friday, August 31, 2007 08:19 AM

Positions ...

Asking conservatives about their "position" is taking on a whole new meaning these days. It almost has to be qualified with "we're not asking about your secret sex life ..."

Monday, September 17, 2007 04:02 PM

I liked you better apologetic and humorless ...

you would Tracy, you would.
