  1. That fucking pussy LIBERAL George “Faggot Bowtie” Will.

    Doesn’t he know that Sarah Palin was a PRISONER OF THE GODDLESS NORTH VIETNAMESE FOR FIVE AND A HALF YEARS?????

    Gesh.

    These Goddamn “Gotcha” press types.

    :::Sniff:::

  2. …and then he made a confusing baseball analogy that no-one understood and pissed on the table. The end.

  3. yeah, why hasn’t george been wearing the bowtie lately? every photo i seem of him has him in some awful necktie of the ordinary variety. maybe he’s been told that he needs to stop dressing like some guy who compulsively stuffs found objects up his ass when people aren’t looking?

    A lot of the conservative types (including our beloved Dr. Laura) don’t seem to like Moosilini very much. They are all obviously HIDDEN LIBRULS. This is a travesty; man’s demise; heathen haters of freedoms. Therefore we must boycott these conservative liberals, who do not exist.

  5. I bet he was wearing an Andrew Sullivan Autofelatio™ Mask Product and masturbating over medical records when he made this declaration.

  6. The crackpot conservatives are cracking up even more. There is an inverse proportion thing going on, in which the more the GOP fractures, the worse things get and the louder the talking heads squeal that Obama would lead us into disaster. Duh.

  7. For teetotalers, or not, here’s your alternative to a Palin drinking game:

    I can see the stars from my deck, so as an astrophysicist I think I’m uniquely qualified to point out how sexist Will is being.

  9. Texan Bulldoggette says at 11:30 pm, September 30th, 2008

    Iggy Plop: I notice Tucker Carlson has also abandoned the bow tie as of late. Maybe they just realized their kitschy little fashion statement reminded people of masturbating-in-a-dark-porn-theater Paul Rubens (aka PeeWee Herman).

  10. Vanity Smurf says at 11:38 pm, September 30th, 2008

    It’s only a matter of time before George Will gets caught on a live mic like Peggy Bullshit Noonan.

    I expect a WSJ endorsement of Obama any day now.

  11. Smoke Filled Roommate says at 11:41 pm, September 30th, 2008

    At least Biden knew of FDR. To Palin, FDR stands for ‘Floating Drilling Rig’ or more appropriately, ‘Failure Discrepancy Report’.

  12. Red Writer says at 11:45 pm, September 30th, 2008

    Kevpod: Bingo cards are fantastic! Thanks. :)

  13. actual conversation I just overheard in a diner between two older guys (about Palin).

    old guy #1: I like her, she says what’s on her mind.

    old guy#2: That’s only good when you know what you’re talking about.

  14. natoslug says at 12:12 am, October 1st, 2008

    Serolf Divad: I can see a bottle of astroglide from my bed, and will shortly see my wife’s ass in bed, so as a doubly-qualified asstrophysicist, I concur.

  15. AmericanValues says at 12:17 am, October 1st, 2008

    HOW DARE HE? George Will is a great defenders of the Bush administration’s record of stupidity and incompetence. And now he refuses to shill for Glasses! Barbie???

    Where’s his smug ideological consistency that we’ve all become accustomed to? I assume it must reside in his, and Tucker Carlson’s, many ridiculous bowties.

  16. btwbfdimho says at 12:21 am, October 1st, 2008

    George, don’t forget she’s a member of the NRA, so it may be a matter of time before she starts hunting at will.

    facehead: And most of the time, it seems she doesn’t even understand the fucking question:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PsTLQ612F-A
    A question about Hamas turned into an incoherent blizzard of talking point horseshit. Ultimately and unknowingly, she endorses Hamas. I think Couric is drinking herself to sleep these days.

  19. obfuscator says at 12:30 am, October 1st, 2008

    Sooo….

    This seems similar to the fallout we would’ve seen if Huckabeez had been nominated. “Smart Conservatives” like George Will and Peggy Noon fucking ADORE religious fundamentalist social conservatives so long as those same social conservatives stick to protesting Planned Parenthood clinics, phone banking and canvassing for GOP candidates. “You believe the earth is 6,000 years old? Fine, whatever. Here’s your “It’s a child, not a choice” sign and your list of doors to knock on.”

    I guess it’s a different story when one of these batshit insanes might actually cost you an election instead of winning you one. Hahahaha fuck off,chickens returning to their roosting places, etc., etc.

  20. lovekills says at 12:30 am, October 1st, 2008

    interesting…..but why do we care what the UK thinks?

  21. HuskyMescan says at 12:36 am, October 1st, 2008

    This guy , the Frank Factor, should be MSNBC:

    100 Mph vitriol and truth.

  22. dilhavarti says at 12:39 am, October 1st, 2008

    lovekills: Please share your thoughts with Major Dingus of Brittania.

  23. ladymacbeth says at 12:43 am, October 1st, 2008

    HuskyMescan: are you fucking kidding me drinking herself to sleep? this is katie’s shot to the big time — i mean respectability, history big time.

    she’s going to be responsible for sinking a presidential ticket.

    well, ok I HOPE…

    but i do believe she’e been instrumental in turning this around.

  24. Why does George Will hate America?

  25. shortsshortsshorts says at 12:50 am, October 1st, 2008

    ladymacbeth: Here let’s use lots of space:

    You are awesome.

    Couric is unfortunately poisoned right now.

    Rally against this and stuff.

  26. lovekills says at 12:52 am, October 1st, 2008

    Well, I’m married to a brit and all I can tell you is if a two headed man is born, it will be in the UK I love Tony, but plz, put a nuzzle on me

  27. ladymacbeth: You give Couric way too much credit. Couric just asked the questions, and Palin hung herself. The McCain camp agreed to let Couric interview Palin, thinking that the two women would exchange baby pictures and their favorite cookie recipes. There was nothing magical or special about what Couric did. The ’spell of protection’ that preacher cast over Palin wore off, the empress has no clothes. katie just turned on the light.

  28. The problem with Conservatives who are now starting to make sense on some things (Bailout, Constitution, Palin), is that they already ruined their reputation ten times over during the W. years.

  29. obfuscator says at 12:56 am, October 1st, 2008

    Maybe I’ve been too harsh. Maybe George has simply come to the realization that the combination of a really old presidential candidate & a dangerously unqualified vice presidential candidate wasn’t the greatest plan ever hatched.

  30. ladymacbeth says at 1:00 am, October 1st, 2008

    shortsshortsshorts: i

    like

    space.

    also, as all i ever read is the economist and wonkette and no tv, when i see one chick seriously bitch slapping another chick — who’s apparently ready to be presnit?

    happy.

    why is she poison (no snark at a;;).

  31. lovekills says at 1:01 am, October 1st, 2008

    I just want to go sort out my can goods

  32. lovekills says at 1:04 am, October 1st, 2008

    I read every thing….

  33. shortsshortsshorts says at 1:05 am, October 1st, 2008

    ladymacbeth: Palin will not only kill the initiator, but she’ll reform the magazine, by never showing up to be there, ever.

  34. ladymacbeth says at 1:14 am, October 1st, 2008

    azw88: yes, that’s my point. it isn’t what katie said or any journalistic creds (she doesn’t have any, obv.). it’s that she’s taking sarah down by being the same as sarah.

    she’s the translater.

  35. graceless says at 1:19 am, October 1st, 2008

    If you’re used to wearing a bow tie, if you’re in a tux, or in a barber shop quartet, bow ties are really cool.

  36. ladymacbeth: gotcha… and trying to translate Palin could get katie the Pulitzer

  37. obfuscator says at 1:22 am, October 1st, 2008

    graceless: Paul Simon(the other Paul Simon) and Pee-Wee Herman also favor the bow tie.

  38. DoesThisKool-AidTasteFunny? says at 1:26 am, October 1st, 2008

    That elitist snot George Will is just being mean to Sarracuda! Doesn’t he get it? Americans don’t want leaders who lord it over us with their “knowledge” and “intellect.” Fortunately, he and the other conservative whiners are just further pissing off the trailer dwellers. If she gets through the debate without literally shitting herself onstage, she will be declared the winner! Yeah for democracy which says everyone gets to vote!

  39. wavingnotdrowning says at 1:29 am, October 1st, 2008

    Holy crap. There was an earlier post here at Wonk linking to a Christian Science Monitor story about whether Palin will drop out.
    But if you go to that CSM story now, there’s like 1 gazillion comment posts that have been edited. Or, rather, censored, all like this:

  40. ladymacbeth says at 1:29 am, October 1st, 2008

    azw88: i’ll give her everything gore’s got plus the pulitzer, an emmy, a tony, the booker prize, a superbowl ring and an honorary knighthood if she tanks the snowbilly and granddaddy jammakin.

  41. Lionel Hutz Esq. says at 1:35 am, October 1st, 2008

    This is totally unfair. You are clearly taking that quote totally out of contest. George Will was simply talking about how Sarah Palin, as a conservative Christian, “is ‘obviously’ not prepared to assume the presidency if necessary.” “Assuming the presidency” is a sexual position involving anal, and Palin don’t play that way.

  42. grevillea says at 1:37 am, October 1st, 2008

    ladymacbeth: Even worse for Walnuts, I don’t think Katie was even trying to show Miss Congeniality in a bad light. She seemed more like a kind teacher trying desperately to coax one coherent, vaguely relevant sentence out of the slowest kid in class.

  43. grevillea says at 1:40 am, October 1st, 2008
  44. ladymacbeth: A Pulitzer should suffice, don’t you think that an extra 60 pounds of fat would end Couric’s career on television??

  45. grevillea: and the race is on to b the first out with Palin porn! Time for a title contest:

    -North to aASSka!

    -shaved beaver to no where!

    -Double trouble: GILF by Day, MILF by night!

  46. Smoke Filled Roommate says at 1:58 am, October 1st, 2008

    azw88: That’s simple. ‘Alaskan Bush’. It summarizes everything.

  51. George Will is just some educated Georgetown elite masquerading as a conservative. The bitters know nothing of him. http://www.dailykos.com/storyonly/2008/9/30/231224/007/123/616189

  54. gurukalehuru says at 4:18 am, October 1st, 2008

    Granted, George Will is a right-wing prick par excellence, but he is now on our side…almost. McCain has lost the intellectual wing of the pigfuckers’ party. There’s nobody left to tell the pigfuckers how to vote, and the pigfuckers, unable to figure things like that out by themselves, may just forget that there’s an election.

    jennx:

    Nice find. Seriously, McCain is such a dick. Just watching him repeat the sex-ed for Kindergarteners makes me lose all respect for him all over again.

  57. trondant says at 5:19 am, October 1st, 2008

    I think we now know who farted on Gwen Ifill’s staircase.

  58. villageatrois says at 6:54 am, October 1st, 2008

    John McCain: 5.5 years.

    Sarah Palin: 5.5 babies.

  59. V572625694 says at 7:28 am, October 1st, 2008

    villageatrois: Well put!

  60. grendel says at 7:39 am, October 1st, 2008

    azw88: What Couric did that most (if not all) of the MSM has NOT been doing for the entire Dubya regime, is to keep asking the question until she got an answer. She asked about the regulations that McCain had fought for 3 times before Caribou Barbie finally did the “I’ll get back to ya!” Most of the MSM would just take the first rambling, incoherent, and totally off topic answer and move on to the next question.

  61. Obviously, Will has been a secret liberal “plant”, writing conservative columns until called up to duty. Now, the call has come and his assignment is to pick on a sweet innocent hockey mom.

  62. Hunter Gathers says at 7:56 am, October 1st, 2008

    Terry: Of course Will is a librul ‘plant’. Most of his columns subsist of the ‘elite’ mindset. You know, big words that the bitters don’t understand. Hell, I’m faily edumacated and I don’t understand his drivel half the time.

  63. Johnny Zhivago says at 8:00 am, October 1st, 2008

    Palin is now saying she’s actually “Joe Sixpack”….

    Is this the new stunt??? Revealing that she is a transvestite???

  64. ihasasad says at 8:02 am, October 1st, 2008

  66. Hunter Gathers says at 8:09 am, October 1st, 2008

  67. ihasasad says at 8:13 am, October 1st, 2008

    gurukalehuru: Here here! Pigfuckers Stay Home!

  68. bitchincamaro says at 8:33 am, October 1st, 2008

    Conservatives like Will are expressing “doubt” about Palin’s qualifications? How about abject horror and utter disbelief?

  69. Cape Clod says at 9:22 am, October 1st, 2008

    So is “In the Tank” the new “Thrown under a Bus”?

  70. WadISay says at 9:41 am, October 1st, 2008

    wavingnotdrowning: Personally, I don’t think we want to go down the road of whether or not a comment “adds to the discussion.”

  71. Smoke Filled Roommate: There used to be a strip club in Phoenix, AZ called the Great Alaskan Bush Club……

    grevillea:”Pole ‘er Bare Tails”

    Perfect!

  72. Johnetic says at 11:52 am, October 1st, 2008

    Terry: Our very own Manchurian Pundit! Turned on just in time to confuse conservatives enough that they lose thier bearings 30 days before the election. Delicious.

    I got an email forward from my grandfather-in-law saying basically that Sarah Palin had the same amount of time in the Governor’s office as Teddy Roosevelt, about two years. It also said that they both had large families with weird names (aka Kermit), and both were not thought of as being fit for office. I just about swallowed my tongue i was so mad.

    Now, I know Teddy Roosevelt. And you, madam, are no Teddy Roosevelt.

    While I don’t agree with George W.’s politics, I think he knows a dumbshit when he sees one. And he sees Mr. Dumbshit and Mrs. Dumbshit at the head of his party, and he’s not happy about it.

  73. Johnetic says at 12:02 pm, October 1st, 2008

    Hunter Gathers: I’ve already named my son Beef Supreme to get ready.
