BRING YOUR OWN LAMPSHADE

SPEAKING OF CONVENTION PARTY TIME: Regarding this, about the fancy cocktail parties in Denver and St. Paul, Wonkette is not seeing quite enough invitations. We’ll need four invites for all the fun things, thanks, and then we’ll post the sexy pictures here. [The Hill]

    Why the hell do you want to subject yourself to such terrible awfulness? I hope you bring a rosary.

    It feels rather meme to mention that all the good Repub parties will be at the airport restroom… but obviously here I go mentioning it.

    Sigh.

  3. AngryBlakGuy says at 1:39 pm, August 13th, 2008

    …”invites”? That must be one fancy men’s restroom.

  4. mookworthjwilson says at 1:39 pm, August 13th, 2008

    The Idaho delegation’s party at MSP’s restroom requires no invitation…sorry Sara and Liz, no girls allowed!

  5. AngryBlakGuy says at 1:40 pm, August 13th, 2008

    …is that Fidel Castro drinking a coke?

    The Real JR Revisted: The Real JR Revisted: mookworthjwilson: I guess it was just too ripe a fruit not to be picked.

    mookworthjwilson: Well, it is a COCK-tail party. hehe….. what? nothing? not even a chuckle? Fuck you guys.

    after seeing all y’all’s fresh, young, hopeful faces in the pics from
    the dc paultard march, i have some advice…don’t let the airlines send
    you to st. paul by mistake.

    if you guys looked retarded, you could easily be mistaken for republicans.

    be sure to get no sleep the night before you go so y’all have a nice edge on.
    just to be on the safe side…bring girls with you.

    Be warned, you’ll have a hell of a time getting around downtown Denver. They’re blocking all the streets and there’s like, 10 million police officers. Go to Capitol Hill instead. It’s sleazier, more fun and cheaper.

  11. NotUrEvryDayWEzl says at 2:02 pm, August 13th, 2008

    GoLikeHellMachine: I’ll be joining the fun vicariously by trolling all of Capitol Hill’s finest establishments during a full two-week convention circuit party. Fuck Southern Decadence, this will be epic.

  12. slangwhanger-in-chief says at 2:03 pm, August 13th, 2008

    hey, isn’t that photo of the young alec guinness indiscriminately swigging rotgut as the old painter gully jimson in the movie adaptation of joyce cary’s “the horse’s mouth?” i thought so… brings u p the tone of the rethug convention parties already…

    to bad you won’t be able to read this on the plane.

    “My Dad, John McCain”
    Meghan McCain’s “picture book biography” of her father hits bookstores Sept. 2.
    Offers brief, illustrated look at his time in the military and in Congress, and
    describes the McCain family.

  14. GoLikeHellMachine says at 2:04 pm, August 13th, 2008

    NotUrEvryDayWEzl: Between the hookers, crackheads, and general insanity on Colfax, it’s going to be a fucking riot. Any choice establishments you’ll be drinking $2 PBRs in?

  15. mookworthjwilson says at 2:06 pm, August 13th, 2008
  16. mookworthjwilson says at 2:07 pm, August 13th, 2008

    tsunami: I can only imagine how Carol McCain will be depicted. I am thinking the witch from Snow White.

  17. mookworthjwilson says at 2:17 pm, August 13th, 2008

    mookworthjwilson: Looked it up…he was a Hillary Superdelegate…maybe he was planning to defect…

  18. The Incomparable Tiny Valdez says at 2:18 pm, August 13th, 2008

    Puma is the new cougar.

  19. maxfield1 says at 2:53 pm, August 13th, 2008

    Why, oh why would you use a photo of Bukowski for an article about rebubs? They DO NOT play the piano like a drunken percussion player. Sheesh.

  20. blackdontcrack says at 3:12 pm, August 13th, 2008

    From the article:

    “Gretchen Wilson will be singing on Tuesday night for the Republicans. Actors Maggie Gyllenhaal and NEIL PATRICK HARRIS are scheduled to swing by the Creative Coalition concert Wednesday night.”

    Once the gay wing of the GOP gets word that Doogie Howser will be in the Minnyapple, they will flock! Larry Craig’s already got a bathroom booked!

  21. qwerty42 says at 3:25 pm, August 13th, 2008

    will you guys have credentials that get you on the floor or the ones that get you into the parties?

  22. ChatteringClass says at 6:00 pm, August 13th, 2008

    Love the Tom Waites song reference in the alt text!

  23. Darehead says at 3:35 am, August 14th, 2008

    Before the cock-tale parties, will somebody please infiltrate Real Politics Training School on Aug 31st and pretend to get brainwashed by Paultards? I’m sure you will be the life of the party.
