The Only Difference Between RSS And USSR Is U, And Facebook

  • For years, McCain has been serving as imperial warrior-king of Colombia. He is tasked with pleasuring the leader of “Chiquita” (a leftist banana terror group) and ruling FARC, which is “Acorn” in Spanish. [Hendrik Hertzberg]
  • Palin says that she would tell people to stop calling Obama a terrorist if she ever heard people call him a terrorist, and, of course, if he weren’t actually a terrorist. Which he is.  [The Caucus]
  • Crypto-Republican liar Judith Miller, the journalist-rogue who would not play by the rules, has been adopted by Fox News! [Gawker]
  • John Kerry used a “homonym”—Massachusetts-speak for a gay pun—to say this horrifying and graphic thing about the preferred environs of his and John McCain’s genitalia. [Ben Smith]
  • Conservative think-tank Facebook has hired Alberto Gonzales’ former chief of staff, which explains why its RSS feed, an insidious socialist information dissemination method, is mysteriously partially broken. [AMERICAblog]

    Speaking of journalist-rouge, have you seen Andrea Mitchell up close?

  2. Jewdishoowary Square says at 4:36 pm, October 20th, 2008

    Judith Miller is a “red journalist?” Is that like being a “yellow journalist?”

    Bad intern. The word you’re looking for is “rogue,” as in the X-Men character, not “rouge,” which is red French hussy makeup.

    This is directly from the transcript of the 700 Club interview with Sarah Palin from the CBN website:
    “And I knew that I wouldn’t be able to handle all that was laid out in front of me in life if I did not have strong faith in my Creator, a mission towards trying to fulfill my own destiny and trying to make the world a bit better for others, so that the manifestation of that belief that I had, I was very aware of what I could do about it at the time, and at the time it was to take that that public step to be baptized and the principle behind that too is as you’re raised up out of the water it’s like “hey world, this is my confession of faith that I’m going to try to lead and live my life according to my belief that God as my Creator has good plans for all of us, and we are to seek those plans and seek the destiny that he has for all of us.”

    Apparently, God wants to promote run-on sentences and commas. He hates periods.

  4. queeraselvis v 2.0 says at 4:39 pm, October 20th, 2008

    Man, those people over at Politico sure are a cranky lot.

  5. [Palin said,] “faith and God in general has been mocked through this campaign.” I disagree. It’s
    “HAVE been mocked”, you stupid cow.

  6. Outstando says at 4:39 pm, October 20th, 2008

    Andrea Mitchell looks pretty good for having spent an eternity plotting her revenge in the bowels of hell.

    And I would like to tell John Kerry to shut his elitist Yankee horseface, but that’s actually a pretty damn funny joke.

  7. magic titty says at 4:40 pm, October 20th, 2008

    I keep calling Sarah Palin a rancid twat even though she claims she isn’t.
    I have other information.

  8. Lascauxcaveman says at 4:42 pm, October 20th, 2008

    Ha ha. Hertzberg correctly used the word “ubiquitous.”

    Communist.

  9. Cogito Ergo Bibo says at 4:44 pm, October 20th, 2008

    Ms. Palin added: “If I ever were to hear that standing up there at the podium with the mic, I would call them out on that, and I would tell these people, no, that’s unacceptable, let’s rise above that please.”

    So she’s calling for an early Rapture? Excellent. More beer for me.

  10. NoWireHangers says at 4:44 pm, October 20th, 2008

    Oh, John Kerry. Leave the blows to Our Wonkette. That goes for the low ones, the blow ones, and the nose ones:

    “I don’t know if any of you know what it’s like. I do, obviously,” he said. “I’ve been asked all of those brilliant questions that were repeated this year.”

    “Barack got asked the famous boxers or briefs question,” Kerry went on. “I was tempted to say commando.”

    The senator said Obama successfully parried that question but that John McCain, the GOP nominee, had some problems.

    “Then they asked McCain and McCain said, ‘Depends,’” Kerry said to lots of laughter from the crowd.

  11. RobPetrified says at 4:45 pm, October 20th, 2008

    John Kerry told a joke!
    However badly, John Kerry told a joke.:)
    Like Al Gore before him, if he had done that while running for president,
    people would have seen him as “somebody they’d like to drink beer with.”
    And the world just might not be in the terrible shape its in right now.
    Or not.
    Depends.

  12. Outstando says at 4:46 pm, October 20th, 2008

    magic titty: That was gross when Todd Palin and Han Solo had to spend the night inside of that thing to keep from freezing to death on the ice planet Ted Stevens.

  13. WagTehGod says at 4:46 pm, October 20th, 2008

    Judith Miller is such a MAVERICK!

  14. RobPetrified: Yes, but it’s an old, old joke. Figures…for Treebeard. Still, it’s embarrassing.

  15. Jewdishoowary Square: Rouge is what Judy will be applying to her aged nipples each time she and Brit go out for a “working” lunch.

  16. gurukalehuru says at 5:04 pm, October 20th, 2008

    That joke Kerry told, I first heard it about Bob Dole. In ‘96.
    I’m not going anywhere with this, just thought i’d mention it.

  17. Fear of a Black Reagan says at 5:20 pm, October 20th, 2008

    Judith Miller on FOX? Who’s she gonna fuck first?

  18. SayItWithWookies says at 5:21 pm, October 20th, 2008

    “I don’t know how anybody would want to do this if they didn’t have real strong faith in God that he’s got it all under control,” [Palin] said.

    Someone please inform the witless mooseshooter that the rest of humanity has other faculties to rely on to get through the day. Some of them are intelligence, perspective, available resources and pragmatism. I can’t wait until this campaign is over and she’s dropped back into that oubliette in Juneau where she so rightly belongs.

  19. Odd Ass City says at 7:03 pm, October 20th, 2008

    Yeah, Bob Dole told it on himself, which made it funny.

  20. Toomush Infermashun says at 7:13 pm, October 20th, 2008

    Okay, so there’s lobbying and Chiquita banana and contributions from Columbia to an unnamed pasty-faced old presidential candidate and some missing useless billion dollars that someone else paid but didn’t get anything good out of yet, and assassinations galore on labor leaders and peasants, but… but… what is someone from the New Yorker talking about ….Columbia? I don’t usually do this unless I have some damn good reason, but goddamit it: Time to Start Drinking Seriously.
