Marc Armbinder…..wordt blog ever, wtf are you guys linking to it for?

Hooray For Anything December 10, 2008 at 4:14 pm

You should give them a break on the slogna “Renewing America’s Promise.” It’s much better than the originally planned slogan of “We’re Screwed”

i am so excited for Obama’s open for questions! i can finally find out where babies come from.

The official slogan of the Inauguration is “Renewing America’s Promise,” which was recycled from the the 1984 Democratic Convention.

Which promise is that? “I won’t cum in your mouth?” Or “I’ll respect you in the morning”?

FUCK Citibank! They have my hard earned tax dollars, so godddamitt, I want my kid to have his sucker when I come to the drive-thru to bounce deposit my hard earned paycheck unemployment benefits!

Question for Obama: are you or have you ever been the member of Greased Chuters of America?

freakishlystrong December 10, 2008 at 4:17 pm

SRSLY, does Blagodicks have a yiff pile on his head?

Serolf Divad December 10, 2008 at 4:17 pm

I thought America’s promise automatically renewed every four years unless you called within 60 days of the renewal period and requested that service not be renewed.

Vanity Smurf December 10, 2008 at 4:19 pm

[re=195971]hedgehog[/re]: Just the tip, I promise.

Cutting kid’s lollipops save some $200K a year while creating another generation of US Americans who will grow up to hate Citi? Yet the naming rights for the Amazing Mess’ (Bullpen) new home costs them $20 Mil a year and is meaningless outside of Nu Yark City.

Nice cost benefit analysis from the same guys who still think that Mortgages to losers was a great idea.

rmontcal December 10, 2008 at 4:20 pm

Didn’t Tower Records go out of business? Oh, wait, I see what you did there…

Vanity Smurf December 10, 2008 at 4:21 pm

[re=195986]ManchuCandidate[/re]: They should have stopped handing out lollies anyway. Responsible parents get pissed off when people offer their kids candy in front of them, it’s just one more time they have to say “Fuck, no. Shut up and siddown and stop touching each other, you freaky pack of wild animals.”

Dee Dee Myers is so goshdarn offended by Favreau’s sexist groping of Hilz’s cardboard titty, eh? I guess she missed the Kate Winslet-as-nude-Catherine-Deneuve pic just to the right. Objectification much?

SayItWithWookies December 10, 2008 at 4:26 pm

The official slogan of the Inauguration is “Renewing America’s Promise.”

You mean that beat out my suggestion of “The Bill of Rights: Crawling Home on Bloody Stumps?” I’m outraged.

[re=195987]rmontcal[/re]: What, Tower was allowed to fail??? Fuck!! I guess the RIAA needs to blame all of the illegal downloads on congress, since they would bail out Tower and thus gave us no where to shop LEGALLY for our tunes!

Isn’t that what the Taser is for? Not that I’ve thought of tasering someone else’s kids or anything.

[re=195967]Hooray For Anything[/re]: Minor correction, the original slogan was “We’re SO Screwed”.

magic titty December 10, 2008 at 4:46 pm

No comments on Dee Dee Myers’ ostensibly pious soapboxing? Hmmm..

ironyisoverrated December 10, 2008 at 5:04 pm

Almost recycled. It’s actually going to be “Renewing Amerikkka’s Promise”, with letters alternating between red, black and green. Hopey was forced to throw the far left a bone eventually…

Hooray For Anything December 10, 2008 at 5:05 pm

[re=196015]TGY[/re]: Actually, I heard another idea was “Fuck it, Let’s Party!”

The girl is blowing on top of ted turner again…

Toomush Infermashun December 10, 2008 at 5:16 pm

Note to Ben Smith…have you rechecked this slogan… I’m pretty sure I heard “Reviewing America’s Promise”….

queeraselvis v 2.0 December 10, 2008 at 5:26 pm

[re=196041]magic titty[/re]: See above.

TGY December 10, 2008 at 5:27 pm

[re=196084]Hooray For Anything[/re]: Works for me.

>>But this is definitely more Sexist, by virtue of Sex Doll Hillary’s involvement.<<
Not to mention unspeakably more violent. As the truism goes, er ‘groping’ is not about sex, but about violence. As distorted as that belief is, we must accept that since scientists have proved that since Hillary makes every male’s testicles and penis shrivel uncontrollably, this fratty grope must be an act of purest violence. This is what hate-crime legislation was created for, right?!

DemmeFatale December 10, 2008 at 5:51 pm

Does the pronunciation of “Blaggy” sound like craggy?

Min December 10, 2008 at 6:11 pm

I’m trying to be outraged by the Hilary cut-out groping. Really, I am. Trying very, very hard. But all it’s doing is giving me a headache. I’m more offended by the fact that they’re trying to ger her liquored up. Don’t they know that beer is extremely hazardous to cardboard?!?

hobospacejungle December 10, 2008 at 6:31 pm

Dee Dee is married to the national editor of Vanity Fair. She gets to be self-righteous in the pages of said magazine. She has a new book out she’d like everyone to buy. Coincidence? Faux-outrage much? As with all things Dee Dee, this is about Dee Dee. LOOK AT MEE PEOPLES I NO LONGER HAZ PIMPLES!1!!!

As for the superfuckinghot Kate Winslet — Vanity Fair is Playboy for snooty people too scared to buy Playboy. Nobody reads the bullshit, self-satisfied wordbarf placed in between the pages of the hot chicks in sexy poses. I’ll take Kate as Catherine any day over Dee Dee. I’ll bet Dee Dee’s just a fucking blast at a party. She should join the fundies if she’s going to write 1960s feminist tripe like this.
