(Image via Teh General)Can we please as a culture agree stop pretending that Republicans aren't a bunch of effete pussies? Bill Frist? Hello? He makes Ru Paul look like Dog the Bounty Hunter.
Why won't anybody call these guys out? Ralph Reed? Lindsay Graham? Even the ones like little Ricky Santorum whose wife spits out babies like a lawn sprinkler have that certain oily, southern-preachery prissiness about them, up to and including President Poppinjay himself. You've seen what he's like when he's mad. He stamps his little feet and starts talking all snippy and bitchy. I've seen ten year old girls who were more intimidating when piqued.
None of them have ever worn the uniform of this country. Their idea of "sport" is to get blind on whiskey sours and go shoot at a bunch of farm-raised birds on private land, but with a full Level One trauma team standing by, of course.
How many more of them will have to get arrested soliciting sex in public toilets before people finally cop to the fact that Republicans are a bunch of nasty old wealthy queens who cheat on their wives with other men and who can't under any circumstances be trusted around teenage boys?
I know, I know.
Tick...tick...tick...

Oh my, that goes so fast!

TRex, ya had me worried there for a bit (whew)
Late to the party as always, I see.
Damn, too bad Hawaii doesn’t participate in the Powerball Lotto, I’m on fire…!!! ;-)

Hey, we haven’t even started on the rest of the load yet! ::laughs:: I actually have a few friends who refer to me as Job. :p

I do make a serious point of trying to make me time, even though it’s hard with the Younger home during the summer. I’m a long distance walker and hike/camp a lot, so it all works out.
… and spout hatespeech in Congress and vote to disenfranchise LGBT Americans at every opportunity!!
What kind of self-hating fuckery is that, anyway?
There’s gonna be a Terminator 4???
FYI, Elliott posted this info earlier:
Sounds like a rare opportunity to hear the best two D candidates talk like Democrats without a DLC thorn in their side to me..
Here’s how the BBC handled Gonzo’s Departure:

Republican fuckery.
The worst kind.

thank you, TRex!

hey everyone!
TJ @ 19
apparently. it’s been on back burner because of a) the crappy boxoffice three did and b)lack of Ahnold due to his attempt to do a skynet on california with out the nukes. Once the fornians toss him, they’ll greenlight the film and he’ll do a reprise (but won’t be a full role according to the trades becuz ahnold wants to be the Senterminator next.) Edward works cheap since he’s not had a star turn in some years.
TeddySanFran @ 22
Howie promises that the “proof” is coming soon..
This interesting observation from Nora Ephron on HuffPo about the current GOP crew’s “legacy”….

TeddySanFran @ 18
figure it’s the kind that drives them into being nazis?
And here I thought that the nasty old queen of the GOP was Babs Bush. *shrug* :)
CD @ 31
My concern is the need for a suicide watch on bill maher when chimpy leaves office and we shut down the iraq mess. While I suspect he will be very happy about that at first, his subsequent discovery that he has no material for real time could have disastrous consequences…
(I mean, can you really see Edwards or Obama generating the kinds of panels, monologues and New Rules that chimpy and crew have done?)
montag @ 35
You were two-thirds right.
Seems like if they have to pretend to be straight then everybody else has to follow their uber pasty white lifestyle set of rules. And have you noticed when they get caught with their pants down all they have to do is find Jeebus, cry a little and then all is forgiven. Just look at Foley.
TRex @ 32
that is so funny, because, in so many ways, it is so true.
“It takes a lot of balls to be a fairy.”
burns, I did catch the King Crimson link from the last thread — thanks!
Steve-AR @ 30
And I believe him absolutely. Recall that many, many people questioned Mike Rogers‘ story in October 2006 about Senator Larry Craig (R-ID). And Mike was right all along.
Do you think when FOX gets around to covering this story they’ll identify Craig as a (D) like they did Foley and who was the other?
TeddySanFran @ 41
hell, they might run a graphic saying “Clinton (D)” on his chyron. Those b*st*rds have neither shame nor functioning neurons, apparently…
I am still waiting for the Vitter end.
marymccurnin @ 38
Do they accept U.S. senators at “gay rehab”?
Eureka Springs @ 43
Don’t. He’s polling at 66%. Ghod alone knows why.
Doesn’t anyone resign in shame anymore?

They better.
Al: “idiot smug face liar boy” Gonzales..that is an exact fit & hilarious.
Spidey if you are still around: Too late for the love or money choice for me! I’ve had the same guy for over 30 years & he is worth it most of the time.
who is our future/new Democratic senator from Idaho?
neurophius @ 44
only if they are wearing their CFM red pumps. That they click together to go home at the end.
And Foley is not forgiven. Never will be.
Man, Fahrney’s is killing me.
They have this limited edition Omas made just for them, in the absurdly beautiful and oh-so-rare Saft Green Celluloid — and it only comes with a medium or broad nib.
Arrrrrggggghhhh!

Maybe they can get “counselled” by Ted Haggard.
TeddySanFran @ 41
I do too. Howie says there are more of the same in the House but it’s too far from the election to blow their cover. Howie Klein is taking down the GOP, one hypocrite at a time.
Suzanne @ 57
Good thing TRex isn’t here.

TRex @ 32
In Georgia, at least, in the Aina, where Dog operates it’s pretty common!!!
On behalf of many men, I object to calling Craig and Co. p*ss**s. I like p*ss* and I don’t like these clowns at all.

More like the pen equivalent of the captain of the cheerleaders. Want it so bad, can’t have it.
burnspbesq @ 37
Okay, maybe the “Red Queen” of the GOP. :)
What about this rumored deal between Bush and Reid?
How do y’all think that went..
George: Now Harry, you give me those damned civil liberties and I’ll cough up Gonzo.
burnspbesq @ 52
ydj selects the “Fahrney”; right clicks; selects “Search Google for ‘Fahrney’” …
oh, pens.
cool.
really nice pens.

Now you are going to have to translate that pronto. Has anyone ever told you that you are quite a tease? lol
Eureka Springs @ 46
The irredeemable do not seek redemption.
it’s very late here, EDT, and as much as I like to claim that I’m a night owl, even I have limits.
G’night all.
Doesn’t anyone resign in shame anymore?
Does anyone slit their own guts in shame anymore?
Eureka Springs @ 65
The deal was no recess appointments, in exchange for Reid not keeping the senate in pro forma session the whole dayam month.
And it may be about to be broken.
That is not a bad thing, since reid also had agree to an up or down vote on the most lovely collection of fourth reich judicial quislings since the supreme court that did Dredd Scott. Jeebus.

Good nite LoudounLib.

it means thank you.
and i know. i majored in it at MAN U. :)
Lets try to avoid using terms that are synonymous with women’s body parts to describe these goppers please. they get caught in the filters (and made us mods have to work)
can we call em roaches or something?
Suzanne @ 77
girlie men. same meaning, no filter issues.
a propos de rien, early Dykes on Bikes activist dies in motorcycle accident:
Do you suppose that Jon Stewart is sitting out in the Hamptons going quietly crazy, cursing his luck for having chosen this week to be on vacation?
Suzanne @ 76
How about camel to …….. never mind.
Eureka Springs @ 64
I certainly hope not. Gonzales wasn’t worth it and Reid already had the goods on him. Nah, I’m thinking it’s much more tied to Rove’s leaving and all of that (gold cock rings notwithstanding) due to investigations closing in.
Speaking of which, AG had better NOT escape investigation and criminal charges just cause he resigns and walks off.
cosmosis @ 70
Seppuku, would be nice, but, not from this bunch of chickenhawks…!!!
althespook @ 70
That would be an excellent outcome..Bush make recess appointment of some flunky and no more Federalist Society Judges for the next 18 months.
burnspbesq @ 80
no because he’s doing the material while he vacations. expect his shows next week to be glorious.
marymccurnin @ 81
(sound of distant ectoplasmic screaming)
girlie men works ak - and it is an approved rethug term according to ah-nold
There’s going to be a Terminator 4?
Is Ahnold going to be in it
ironranger @ 66
i found http://chake.chinatefl.com/glossary.html
they say “Xiexie = Thank you; to which you reply Bu Keqi “
peanutbutter @ 82
Fret not. Chimpy will pardon him, and all his other BFF’s just as he escapes office. And I use that term deliberately.
Suzanne @ 77
How about “corn-pone jive-ass peckerwood?”
Suzanne @ 86
I dunno. I’m partial to “batshit stupid emotionally stunted men” myself.
Suzanne @ 76
Will c*ck-roaches clear the filter?
mary mcc - duh! i forgot to tell ya i saw ya on my local tv station last week (or was it week before last) at the presser you were in up in Sac on health care. You were mahvahlous (and your hair looked good too - wink wink)

did you see the writeup on his latest stunt? huge cuts for ordinary folks, but a huge writeoff for yacht owners.
Loser. I really hoped for him once. now I can’t even stand to watch his movies, and I *loved* T2.
I’m going to find a REALLY lovely chinese name for him to make myself feel better.

What gives with so many of our favorites gone this week: Froomkin, Stewart, Colbert, Rachel Maddow for today anyway. I miss hearing their takes on it all & this was only Monday.
::grumble:: I have more honesty, integrity, and ethics in a strand of my hair than those loose-moraled f’heads and I deeply resent having them compared to me or any of my
