George Bush’s Extremely Offensive Forestry Malapropism

  • Your President, George, hates Jews and is therefore making them celebrate Ch/Hanuk(k)a(h) by insisting they worship a Christmas tree. [HuffPost]
  • Minnesota will not count thousands of the absentee ballots Al Franken wants them to, but still, without things to count, the recount continues. [The Caucus]
  • The MySpace mom who played terrible pranks on 12 year old girl, for vengeance, was found guilty of several misdemeanors. [AMERICAblog]
  • Oh god, some guy named “Karl” (note the Soviet “K”) has actually suggested that Bill Clinton will replace his wife Hillary Clinton as Senator from New York. [Hit & Run]

  1. “Bill Clinton will replace his wife Hillary Clinton as Senator from New York. . . .”

    No.

    NO!

    NO!

    IN THE NAME OF CHRIST, AND ALL THAT IS HOLY: NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

  2. ManchuCandidate says at 6:41 pm, November 26th, 2008

    It would have been worse if the Liberty U alumni among the WH staff got their way.
    “Merry CHRISTmas and Happy Hanukkah from the WHITE House, Christ Killers!”

  3. SayItWithWookies says at 6:41 pm, November 26th, 2008

    Neilist: I like that. Can I use it for my Hanukkah cards?

  4. Lascauxcaveman says at 6:48 pm, November 26th, 2008

    Neilist: I never really wanted Hils as Sec o’State, thinking she would make a perfectly good jr senator from NY. I don’t see how having the ol’ hound dog replace her would be a bad thing.

    You don’t want him having so much free time on his hands that he’s gotta spend it advising Hillary in her new job, do you? Being senator would more or less keep him off the streets and out of trouble. As much as any senator, anyhoo.

  5. shanemcgowan says at 6:53 pm, November 26th, 2008

    Run, Bill, Run.

  6. CaliforniaMike says at 6:58 pm, November 26th, 2008

    Bill isn’t going to want to be the most junior member of the Senate after being the leader of the free world. If the best he could get as prez’nit was Monica, he’s going to wind up banging toothless Waffle House waitresses as a senator.

  7. WhatTheHeck says at 6:59 pm, November 26th, 2008

    by insisting they worship a Christmas tree

    Well… next year at this time the cards could have a crescent moon, a star and a sword on them.

    How are they gonna like them apples?!

  8. DangerousLiberal says at 7:00 pm, November 26th, 2008

    About the My Space bitch: I have no problem with the 3 misdemeanors. I mean, 3 years in jail is fine–as long as she is first skinned alive and then dipped in a vat of hot oil. That would about do it.

    Thank you.

  9. Texan Bulldoggette says at 7:16 pm, November 26th, 2008

    DangerousLiberal: Agreed. A 12-year-old committed suicide because of her actions. What the hell was the jury smoking?

  10. WhatTheHeck: I’m hoping for a peace sign, a Darwin fish, or a repro of that Robert Indiana “LOVE” with the crooked “O” replaced by the rising-sun logo.

    Probably we’ll just get something tasteful and inclusive. Bah.

  11. At least Bill would be somewhere where the phrase “conflict of interest” doesn’t bother anyone.

  12. So they’ve turned down Franken’s request huh? Oh fer shame! Well, at least
    the folks in Minnesquito haven’t totally effed up recount process like they did in
    Florida.

    I have a strange craving for Hot Dish and Bars now.

  13. Texan Bulldoggette: Lawbooks, possibly. The problem with the government case is that the crime didn’t quite fit any existing statute. Strangely, the concept of cyber-hounding emotionally vulnerable tweens until the latter commit suicide has not (yet) been recognized as a jailable offense. Nor apparently has acting like a savage white-trash bitch and raising up your daughter to become likewise.

  14. p-Sludge ofTheElves says at 7:43 pm, November 26th, 2008

    When you assume that a guy is into Flip-Flop just because he has a partially Muslin background, that’s racist.

  15. otisfatboy says at 7:50 pm, November 26th, 2008

    There are female congressional pages aren’t there? I suppose they are all Democrats.
    “Shootin fish inna barrel I say. By the way, gotta burn that dress when we’re done, honey, bring a change, I’ll keep the thong”

  17. Darehead says at 8:03 pm, November 26th, 2008

    If it comes down to Spitzer vs. Bill, I’d say, how about Al Franken? NYC’s his other residence after all, and Hillz was no native either.

  18. p-Sludge ofTheElves says at 8:53 pm, November 26th, 2008

    On a fully unrelated note, this. Who can stop thinking about it?

  19. “A five-member state canvassing board today unanimously rejected Al Franken’s appeal to count all those rejected absentee ballots …”
    Had the ballots not been mailed by persons whose last name begins with “al-” (as in Albright, Allen or Alexander) or mailed from some Minnesota beatnik-jazz, hiphop college like Saint Olaf‘s, dammit I would certainly have recommend disputing the decision.
    So hate me for being rational.

  20. gjdodger says at 9:15 pm, November 26th, 2008

    One of the great stupid goy moments was during an NFL game a few years ago. It was the unfortunate job of the dumb jock color man to promote an upcoming network special, which was an animated Channukah show with the Rugrats. It brought a tear to my eye when the jock said we would learn about the meaning of “chah-NOO-kah.”

  21. uh…is this it for the weekend? i hope not.

    can i haz some sarah?

  22. Texan Bulldoggette says at 9:20 pm, November 26th, 2008

    tsunami: Here you go. Turns out CNBC bought clothes whore Sarah some clothes, too. Geez, has anyone NOT bought this bitch something to wear?

  23. They aint makin’ jews, like jesus anymore.

  24. Texan Bulldoggette:

    ohhhh, thank you bdette…although i’d a
    preferred something involving a teddy or some such vicki’s item.

    got anything like that, also?

  25. http://reason.com/blog/show/130288.html
    Bill to replace Hillary as Senator for NY (and head of Gazprom)?
    “Stunning proposal”. As stunning as saying that rain falls from the sky.

    Forgive me. Despite the tempered, gentle wisdom shown on Wonkette, I remain cynical. And so I also hate small puppies. And furry kittens. Especially kittens. And friggin’ pandas. And mewling orphans. And …

  26. CumaeanSibyl says at 2:14 am, November 27th, 2008

    kaspian: Yeah, “wrong” doesn’t mean “illegal,” and vice versa.

    Personally, I don’t think it ought to be illegal to drive a child to suicide, but I do think the girl’s parents missed a golden opportunity to run over there and beat that woman to death when they found out what she’d done. Temporary insanity, you know. No jury in the world would convict.

  27. otisfatboy says at 7:46 am, November 27th, 2008

    Think I have found my depository for the giving of the thanks, can I leave this stuff here for awhile? I’ll come back in two or three hours, for an afternoon of arguing. After my purge.
    It will all be ship-shape by days end. Guaranteed.

  28. gjdodger says at 7:46 am, November 27th, 2008

    I am STOKED about Bill Clinton getting appointed to the Senate. In your FACE, wingers! Hell, maybe Blagojovich oughta name Bill Ayres to Hopey’s seat!

  29. Toomush Infermashun says at 8:09 am, November 27th, 2008

    More and more, President Clinton (B.), is beginning to look like some old Red Skelton character…. look, it’s Bill the Hobo…!

  30. Toomush Infermashun says at 8:36 am, November 27th, 2008

    Say, I don’t know too much about those Joos, either, but isn’t Hannakkah (hack) a celebration of the Passover…? Dey ben passed over, agin….

  31. Monsieur Grumpe' says at 10:04 am, November 27th, 2008

    DangerousLiberal:
    No. Skinned, rolled in salt, then deep fried. MMMMMMMM deep fried salty bitch.

  32. DangerousLiberal says at 10:24 am, November 27th, 2008

    Monsieur Grumpe’: win.

  33. 2druk2phluq says at 10:47 am, November 27th, 2008

    Fuck you Wonkette and America… wait, I mean, Happy Thanksgiving! (fuckwads)

  34. Today I give thanks for Wonkette, and celebrate the time when our forefathers, the Wonkette Pioneers, lived with the indigenous peoples of the Gawkers tribes, and when they sat and ate turducken and sweet potato pie together, before the Wonketteers slaughtered them and stole their land, for freedom, etc. Amen.

  35. Unfuckingbelievable!! Not only is GWB the dumbest fuck to ever set foot in the Whitehouse (BTW: THis includes all of those kids from the short bus that have EVER toured the WH), but his staff obviously has gone the FULL RETARD. I mean, REALLY!

    Maybe they must have been out to insult them by reminding the jews that they killed grown-up Jesus by nailing him to a Cristmas tree.

    Wonder how Tailgunner-Joe will react to this?

  36. National Fried Boloney League says at 2:34 pm, November 27th, 2008

    Only the current mis-administration could send a card with a Christmas tree for chaun….hanakk…..oh, that minor holiday jewish parents use to shut their kids up. The only thing worse would be the bloodied baby seal cards Gov. GILF (then dumping her on the side of the road from my speeding Camaro) sends out to her clothing benifactors.

    Thanksgiving requires gin and assfucking as a reminder how this great nation was founded. The perfect Wonkette holiday!

  37. glamourdammerung says at 2:53 pm, November 27th, 2008

    azw88: “Wonder how Tailgunner-Joe will react to this?”

    Probably Slave Position #3 if I were to guess.

  38. finallyhappy says at 3:45 pm, November 27th, 2008

    It is enough of a Chnaukah gift for me that Bush will not be the prez anymore. Baruch and Miriam and the kinder will be celebrating Chanukah next year. We fooled you with the Muslim/Rev. wright stuff-your new Prez is one of the chosen! The big holiday will be Pesach(Passover for you goyim) and free boxes of matzah will be distributed at Lafayette Square.

  39. glamourdammerung: Not sure if I even WANT to know what position that is!!!

  40. glamourdammerung: I am not sure I want to know what that position is!

  41. What’s the big deal–it’s just a pagan solstice shrub anyway, and all those damn Ch/Hanuk(k)a(h) lights are ditto. It’s going to be very very dark in a month. And then it’s going to get lighter. Whee! Pass the skull filled with the mead and hide the wimmen….

  42. WonkaBee says at 9:22 pm, November 27th, 2008

    Pre-Friday NooningtonNonsensington!

    HERE IT IS!!

    Highlights:

    “SHE WILL NEVER NOT BE WITH US!!”

    “Well, at the moment, she is at the moment, there are still emanations and tendrils of her fabulous celebrity in 2008, and so of course ….. ”

    Why am I thinking of entrails?

  43. WonkaBee says at 9:28 pm, November 27th, 2008
  44. Of all the colossal failures of GW, they bitch about a fuckin’ tree on a card! This over-sensitivity to religious beliefs is well beyond ludicrous. Too many problems are created and fewer resolved because of religious beliefs. I’m so tired of religious people, in unbecoming character, explode and lash out on somebody over some minute detail. Get a fuckin’ grip!
    The Bushes are retarded. Nothing more needs to be said.

  45. glamourdammerung says at 2:43 pm, November 28th, 2008

    So, I wonder if the conservatives understand the irony of their frothing at the mouths about the MySpace retard and how she deserved to be charged for basically acting like a jerk and the things she said.

  46. Sans the Diaper says at 12:25 am, November 29th, 2008

    testing
