So after our little tour of the Republican Death Slave Equipment we went next door to The Liffey, the bar of choice for lazy journalists who want to get as many beers into their bodies as quickly as possible following four hours of hillbilly baying for Elitist Media blood. We sat down with a couple of the Reason kids, and this nice young lady came up and said, “So what did you think of the speech?”
Your Sara K. Smith sort of hedged, and Jim said he hated it, and Matt Welch said he thought it was great theater. Twenty minutes later, Matt was pressing a print copy of Reason into our new pal’s hands and extolling the virtues of free minds and free markets, and she sort of politely said thanks, and then said, “So what I want to know is, where are all the Wonkette people?”
And we laughed and laughed.
Thank you, Juliet the Liberal! You made our evening.

WHAT ARE YOU LIBRUL MEDIAS DOING YOU SECKSISTS?
Yo, girls.
You guys are friends with Matt Welch? And Wonkette was first edited by Ana Marie Cox… It’s weird how everything great on the internet can be traced back to Suck.com
Librul ladiez are hot… but Republican women are tighter.
Look at that horrible terrorist kaffiyeh.
…either the girl in the photo is a hobbit or Sara K. is suffering from a rare form of gigantism.
what a great question. Where are all the Wonkette People?
also,
woh oh what I want to know, how does the song go?
Yes, Yes.
/sexist libreal media and deadspinner
[re=84151]Dave J.[/re]:
it troubles me that you can spell kaffiyeh…[i had to copy and paste].
So did you tell her the Wonkette people were too busy having teh buttsecks with Palin and McCain back in the “Straight Talk Express”?
The Wonkette people?
Sounds like a long lost tribe of retarded “natives.”
So, you girls come here often?
Just askin….. Don’t be hatin’, I’m just lookin’ for some datin’ ‘n matin’
y’ know, a little librul action…..
Liberal ladies have lovely unforced smiles. Consumption of alchohol probably helps.
Say, I used to write for Suck! Too bad I also think libertarianism sucks…(at least it sucks to hear people who think the market will naturally fix itself claiming that socialism is a wacky dream).
“So, you ladies into early-80s Aretha Franklin? Cuz I’m ready to take you ridin’ on the THREE-WAY of love!!!”
/hopeless drunken pickup lines
Now we know why the Library of Congress is desperately trying to preserve Wonkette as part of their Election 2008 documentation. The Wonkette People must be disappearing rapidly.
Since none of them qualify for the Rapture, we can only conclude that they have given into Republic Bathroom sex and no longer favor the hetero procreative sex preferred by the unwashed masses.
On the other hand, why would the Wonkette People want to have sex with the unwashed – its disgusting.
[re=84168]Delicious[/re]: Indeed, a primordial cargo cult. Or panda cult.
Have their people call your people or their kids call your kids or whatever.
We were where all good “Wonkette People” were; getting drunk and liveblogging. She didn’t really expect us to come to the convention, did she??
I, too, am a bit troubled by this new label. Wonketteer has a much more satisfying, swashbuckling fleeling to it…..you know, like we really do something.
The look on Sara’s face makes me think she’s about to sucker-punch the photographer.
RUN LIZ!!!
The election of Barack Obama will say one thing and one thing only about this country’s relations with its own people: we are terribly sexist.
If this is going to turn into one of those Liberal Lesbians stories, I want video, goddamnit.
And if it’s not going to turn into one of those Liberal Lesbians stories, it ought to, goddamnit.
(Our Sara’s HOT, but after last night I’m starting to worry about her eyewear.)
Sorry Spinal Tap
Listen, (Shhhh) to what the Wonkette people type (Ahhhh)
Listen, it’s getting snarkier every day
Listen, (Shhhh) it’s like a foot from under the stall (Ahhhh)
Listen, it could be tapping now to you
Wonkette people mock on by
Wonkette people want you to cry
It’s not too late (No!)
It’s not too late
Listen (Shhhh) it’s like a McCain candidacy
Listen (Shhhh) it’s mockable just for you and me
Listen (Shhhh) to what the Wonkette people snark(Ahhhh)
Listen, it’s getting truer every day
Did you ask her if she wore the O’bomber sticker in the convention? If so, how come she didn’t experience extrodinary rendition?
I don’t get it.
You know, this is just too much. First it was that skinny kid from “the south side of Chicago” – hah! upwardly liberal Harvard grad under all that dishdashah, shumag and other stuff – look it up* – winning some old fashioned arcane and malleable “caucuses”, resulting in a Pandora’s box of “black” teevee commentators popping up all over the airwaves and telling us how to live our lives.
Ugh.
But now, with this Palin Jane bulldog bitch from the Yukon marching around, waving her saber and rattling McCranky’s cage, all of a sudden the blacks have been replaced – on every channel – with young chicks in chic eyewear. It’s like the Rove clone machine has been re-tooled (by hardworking Merkins in red states) to give us Tina Fey and D.C. Madam lookalikes until the cows come home.
God save us! Godspeed, Merkins in Merkin headgear!

ZOMG! Even Politico is bagging on the Snowbilly Baby Machine today! *head explodes*
http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0908/13143.html
I’d do both of em.
I can’t think of anything appropriately sexist to utter, so I’ll just throw you both a hearty wolf-whistle, and leave it at that.
Can I get the one on the left’s number? Can you hook me up?
[re=84235]Pawdedoo[/re]: It was a plug for this “Reason” business.
The trip to the Midwest has given SKS apple-cheeks. She looks so wholesome. So good. So pure. So unWonkette. Hence that young lady’s inability to grasp that she stood before the horned one and its imp. http://perdurabo10.tripod.com/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderpictures/lilith.jpg
Snowbilly Baby Machine? I prefer ‘Babycuda’.
You’re both hot! Good work on that!
the level of happyness in this picture is almost terrifying
Matt Welch? I used to read his blog before he became a sellout. Does he still sport the cowboy hat? Probs the same one as T Boone Picken now. I hate it when my favorite obscure bloggers get discovered and move to bigger media outlets. I imagine it’s how hipster doofuses feel about Paramour.
A sellout? I don’t think Reason pays enough for that.
[re=84148]jagorev[/re]: Oh Welch never wrote for Suck. But the former editor of Reason, Nick Gillespie, used to contribute. Our drunken pal Heather Havrilesky was “Polly Esther,” and Tim Cavanaugh (now back at Reason) ran the whole thing by himself for the last year or so.
[re=84584]Ken Layne[/re]: Cavanaugh was a good editor. On another front, I’m glad Peter Bagge got work from Reason and Suck alike. Bagge is a sincere libertarian, and among the wittiest of that tribe.
[re=84633]regisgoat[/re]: peter bagge of “hate” comics?
[re=84633]regisgoat[/re]: “Bagge is a sincere libertarian”
These days there are approved pharmaceuticals for that.
I’d go see “Choke” for a 3 way.
Sad. I work disturbingly close to the Xcel and didn’t get to meet any Wonketeers. I’ve been to several bars in St. Paul this week and they have been eerily dead. Even for Saint Paul. Can’t complain though, there were several snipers on buildings around mine, so I got that going for me.
