Okay it's true. The right is vicious and the next President should be more like Putin.
It's obvious that Glenn has no idea what the businessman's world view is. But like I say, Putin and Osama are WAY more popular than Bush so hopefully the next president is or like them. ROTFLMAO.

@ mcd410x
It's hard to tell what your complaint is, but if I'm unpacking your tortured syntax correctly, you're wondering why liberals don't attack the right wing for having weakened the country.
The answer to that question, if indeed it is your question, is simple: Where have you been?
Size isn't strength. Neither is belligerence, or zealotry, or, despite what the party demands, ignorance. Oddly enough, a Republican said it best: A house divided against itself cannot stand. If we could defend the country without attacking the Republicans, we'd gladly do so. Unfortunately, they leave us little choice. McCain, for example, is calling for 100 years of war. It won't last that long, believe me.

GOPS and art monkey visit their parasitologist.
At lunch they discuss a theory:
The black gop in the water bottle?
It's just a fig? A figment imagination.
A GOP street performer can juggle fine,
they boast and show they can do dozens,
of juggle trick acts all simultaneously.

Yes, they are all victims...
...Republicans have portrayed themselves as persecuted victims so successfully, they have taken over the government off of little more than playing the victim card.
The formula (as GG somewhat pointed out in his article) works like this:
Question a Republican=persecuting a Republican.
Persecuted Republican=a victim.
White bigoted men pimping themselves out as victims (as articulated in GG's article)=political power & success.
Footnote: Ever notice Bush always telling us liberals/terrorists are out to destroy him?
That's Bush framing himself as a potential victim.
Of course, this is a Rovian tactic that, obviously, gets you elected president if it's carried out properly.

Listen to Pee Wee
"..if you want to mock something, mock it amusingly, rather than in than kind of bitchy, scornful tone that is so common on this blog".
- Proximity Warning
Yeah, Glenn! You think just because the rightwing has lowered the level of discourse in this country to depths where whale shit wouldn't go, that you somehow have a right to hold up their vile, inane, hysterical, and valueless dialogue in such an undignified manner? PLEASE!! Have you learned nothing from John King dressing you down??!!

If you look...
(gad how I hate that locution, Ari Fleischer used it all the time), the BiPartisanship Groupies are mostly firing their blanks at Republican intransigence. They're the ones who are preventing "getting anything done," ya know.
It's kinda like whenever the topic of Blogger Ethics comes up, the automatic assumption is that the Lefty Blogs need to be slapped around for this or that infraction when more often than not it's your Powerlines and Red States and that ilk that violated some norm or custom and need to be disciplined. Sternly.
And then of course there is this.
Problem is Dems are too BiPartisan for their own good; Lefty Blogs too Puritanical and straitlaced. And whining wingnuts are a dime a dozen.

GOPS that weigh in over 399 pounds,
worried they are looking lean dressed,
in those fancy 'going to jail' stripes.
You agree? William Timberman wears no tie.

@Mike Sulzer on Water
Mr. Sulzer said "I think of bottled water as a soft drink with the bad stuff removed."
And I, personally, thought the switch from corn syrup-laden, caffeinated fizzy water to plain old water was a good thing, too.
What I object to is marketing this stuff, basically straight from the tap, at prices even higher than Coke. That's a rip off, and what with all the disposed-of bottles, a drag on the environment. There was even an article in Salon about it.
A sane society would be encouraging people to buy water bottles and make it easy/cheap for them to fill them up. Again and again. Even at the airport - you bring it through security empty, then you fill it at the water fountain.

@Pro War
See, here's a good idea - if you want to mock something, mock it amusingly, rather than in than kind of bitchy, scornful tone that is so common on this blog.
Your current post isn't insightful, isn't constructive and isn't funny or even midly diverting. It's the most obvious and leaden form of 'irony' there is; nothing beyond the wit of your average 13 year old. It's pablum. Do try harder.
Speaking of pointless bitchery... as if you actually cared about the quality of Glenn's humor, don't even front, kid.

Where does the bottled water come from? It kills flower plants.
I believe it comes from Mucky algae sludge dumps, or from the DC's neighborhood neocons swimming pools? I can't be sure. It smells of chlorine and is bottles by the Coca Cola bottling company.
Test it. Never sip it.
It kills green plants.
It's chlorine pool water?
It's good for white teeth?

DC vacates. The Texan mental wards fill up like sardines packed in those fishy smelling hospital psychiatric wards.
The Rove followers wish they had become psychologist and made more money than the false neocon neoconservatives in town such as Austin.
What a "strange" Glenn facilitated,
'shrink' wrap group this is today.
It's even free.

Hinderaker
Geez, everyone is too nice, bipartisan almost. Let me change the tone a little. hinderaker, you are a piece of shit, accompanied by the little turds who echo you. You are a war-loving chickenhawk who never had the guts to back up your philosophy by going hand to hand with an actual enemy. But you are in good company, specifically your president.
But hinderaker's outburst is a good thing. Think of the pain, the horror people like hinderaker must be going through, having to wake up every morning realizing that the American people are sick to death of the idiot he idolizes("A man of extraordinary vision and brilliance approaching to genius, he can't get anyone to notice. He is like a great painter or musician who is ahead of his time, and who unveils one masterpiece after another to a reception that, when not bored, is hostile. Hyperbolic? Well, maybe"), and that the American people are at last becoming aware of the damage hinderaker's conservatism has wrought. Here's hoping your nightmares consume you.
