    Rahm looks like a creepy elf in that HuffPost pic.

  2. villageatrois says at 1:43 pm, December 23rd, 2008

    The Pope is the world’s greatest authority on Gay Matters. He employs more gays than anyone outside of Disney, which is being “boy”-cotted by the Warrens.

  3. How many employees would the Catholic church have without the gayz? May god bless you all.

    Given an unusual love for hot red Prada shoes, I’m lookin at you popey.

    “Rick Warren Is Your New Lincoln”

    Ah, so he is gay!

  5. Serolf Divad says at 1:49 pm, December 23rd, 2008

    Pope still doesn’t get it: your minions aren’t fucking choirboys because they’re gay. They’re fucking them because they’re sexually repressed.

  6. whatever_dc says at 1:50 pm, December 23rd, 2008

    can someone tell the nazi-sympathizing, stupid dress-wearing, ugly-ridiculous-hat-wearing, protector and enabler of child rapists to SHUT THE FUCK UP??????????? he wears red prada shoes for fuck’s sake! why do people listen to this fucktard anyway??? he makes fucking sarah palin sound intelligent!!!

    me no likey teh pope!

  7. 4tehlulz says at 1:50 pm, December 23rd, 2008

    I look forward to Richard Cohen’s next column about the Pope’s statements.

  8. MoodProcessor says at 1:52 pm, December 23rd, 2008

    I think the awesomest thing about the Pope is that he’s so relevant.

  9. Anonymous Office Zombie says at 1:53 pm, December 23rd, 2008

    That Political Machine article was pretty great, starting with the title “Pope, in Fetching Dress and Shawl Ensemble, Denounces Homosexuality.”

  10. Darehead says at 1:59 pm, December 23rd, 2008

    AOL commentor Tom sets us all us all “straight”:

    While I’m not in agreement with the pope regarding homosexuality, your description of him as the “gayest-looking man on the planet” is uncalled for. The garments worn by the pope, the Swiss Guard and members of many other organizations are traditional rather than contemporary, like Scottish kilts, for example. It’s easy enough to ridicule what you don’t understand. As for “being kissed by a dude”, that person is kissing the Pope’s ring, which is a sign of respect not so much for the human being who is the pope, but for the office that he holds. Besides that, it’s a fact known by most educated people that in many cultures it’s quite normal for straight men to kiss as a sign of mutual respect or affection, but has nothing to do with sex or sexuality.

    So all you homo-Wonketteers, get over it. It’s traditional, like bull-fighting. Or ass-fucking.

  12. V572625694 says at 2:01 pm, December 23rd, 2008

    V572625694: Or Jew-burning, another great Catholic tradition.

    Sorry about the italics.

  13. Swiss Guards : Vatican :: Village People : New York

  14. SayItWithWookies says at 2:04 pm, December 23rd, 2008

    This will be the first time an incoming president has used Lincoln’s Bible, which is part of the collection at the Library of Congress.

    Oh look — another president with an unused Bible. Actually, I’m okay with that.

  15. The Cold Sea says at 2:08 pm, December 23rd, 2008

    “The Pope himself described behaviour beyond traditional heterosexual relations as ‘a destruction of God’s work’.”

    I guess felching 12-year old boys in the rectory is OK, Mr. Pope?

    So what does a priest, cardinal, pope know about traditional heterosexual relations? A dude in a dress who worships a naked little man on a cross, drinking his blood and eating his body. Yeah, that’s normal.

  16. actor212 says at 2:10 pm, December 23rd, 2008

    Rick Warren will exorcise the all gay out of Barry using the same Bible that Lincoln used at his Invocation.

    He’s going to kill teh ghey by using a gay man’s Bible?

    How? Overpopulation of teh gay?

  17. obfuscator says at 2:10 pm, December 23rd, 2008

    Bruno: I’m looking forward to The Pontiff Wears Prada, starring Joe Pesci as His Holiness Joey Ratz and John Goodman as Saddleback Warren.

  18. SayItWithWookies says at 2:10 pm, December 23rd, 2008

    V572625694: It’s not really the ermine cape or the red Prada shoes or the gold brocade dress that’s so gay — that’s really just tranny, and there’s a difference. The real gay part is the two wetsuits and the dildo.

  19. Monsieur Grumpe says at 2:13 pm, December 23rd, 2008
  20. Where does the Pope stand in the new shirtless cold war? His manhood is on the line.

  21. Monsieur Grumpe says at 2:15 pm, December 23rd, 2008
  22. The Cold Sea says at 2:15 pm, December 23rd, 2008

    Monsieur Grumpe: I bet he’s blasting “I’m a Barbie Girl” out of the sound system.

  23. President Beeblebrox says at 2:16 pm, December 23rd, 2008

    Lookie, this was linked from the LA Times article on Palin.

    America’s favorite conservative transsexual thinks Palin is just peachy. The starbursts are practically flowing out of Ann’s Adam’s apple.

    The gist of the article is basically “Oooo, Sara’s sooo much cuter than any Democratic female politicians!” So maybe Ann’s a lesbian and not a tranny…

    http://www.humanevents.com/article.php?id=29995

    You don’t even think of most Democratic woman as women: Rosa Delauro, Nita Lowey, Patty Murray, Janet Napolitano — and the list goes on. Oh, sure, there are the odd female Democrat sex kittens — your Janet Renos, your Donna Shalalas — but they’re the exception to the rule.

    After Palin gave her barnburner of a speech at the Republican National Convention, a friend of mine in a liberal industry told me his friends were aggressively confronting him demanding to know if Palin was raised by a secret cult of Christians that taught children nothing but Creationism and public speaking.

    Oh, how I wish he had said “yes.” Imagine the aneurisms! I think what liberals were trying to say was: Gosh, she’s an exceptionally attractive mother of five!

  24. SayItWithWookies says at 2:17 pm, December 23rd, 2008

    Then, when the McCain crew did roll [Palin] out, they revealed their suicide wish by starting with Charles Gibson and Katie Couric.

    Really, how awful to toss Sarah like Daniel into that den of teddy bears — who savaged the fuck out of her, btw.

    Monsieur Grumpe: Oh, Dubya needs one of those — but where’s the target that dumps him in the water if you hit it?

  25. V572625694: Well “Tom” that may be true, but said ring in question is a cock ring.

  26. V572625694 says at 2:24 pm, December 23rd, 2008

    President Beeblebrox: “a friend of mine in a liberal industry…” What’s a liberal industry?

  27. Makeithurt says at 2:24 pm, December 23rd, 2008

    Barack Obama may kiss my little white ass — the goddamned traitor.

  28. The Cold Sea says at 2:33 pm, December 23rd, 2008

    Makeithurt: Hopey’s not a traitor. He just thinks he’s the preznit of the whole United States; like every motherfucker from teh gays to the fundies to the rednecks. Yeesh. Anywho, he’s all Kum-Ba-Ya and shit and thinks he can get people to be civil and reach common ground on shit. That’s his style.

  29. finallyhappy says at 2:34 pm, December 23rd, 2008

    V572625694: I am so over the Catholic Church- and just think- the sex scandal was here in the US- imagine what is still going on in all those countries where the Catholic Church is still revered.

  30. Larry McAwful says at 2:35 pm, December 23rd, 2008

    The Catholic Church makes a big deal about how there shouldn’t be any gay priests. But then, there shouldn’t be any straight priests, either. I mean, for the past 900 years, priests aren’t supposed to have sex with anybody for any reason.

    I might take them more seriously if they would say, “We should have no gay priests. No straight priests, either. Or pedophiles. All sexual urges, no matter how perverse or mainstream they may be, are not to be tolerated. Masturbating priests will have a hand cut off, and another hand in the event of a second offense. This is the will of the Lord. Thanks be to God.”

  31. magic titty says at 2:39 pm, December 23rd, 2008

    V572625694: Environmentally conscious gay porn?

  32. InsidiousTuna says at 2:47 pm, December 23rd, 2008
  33. actor212 says at 2:58 pm, December 23rd, 2008

    V572625694: What’s a liberal industry?

    You know, Hollywood? Jews? He’s in the pictures.

  34. I gotta agree. The Swiss Guard is gayer than a rainbow of Skittles.

  35. Hostile Michigander says at 3:27 pm, December 23rd, 2008

    I agree with Governor Palin: She should be 100% in charge of everything the Republicans do. That will guarantee the proper amount of comedic incompetence necessary to keep all of Wonkette’s editors employed throughout the coming Greater Depression.

  36. Anita Cocktail says at 3:36 pm, December 23rd, 2008

    The man wears $600 Prada loafers — in red! — and he’s calling THEM gay? Ri-i-i-ght.

  37. Advocatus_Diaboli says at 4:06 pm, December 23rd, 2008

    “MOSSLETOFF”

    Fuck. Yeah.

  38. Hooray For Anything says at 4:17 pm, December 23rd, 2008

    From the story in the LA Times:

    In a new interview in Human Events, Palin was asked the most important lesson she learned this fall:

    “As a chief executive of a state, I am not used to that. I am used to proving my abilities by calling the shots. Then I know the buck stops with me. I made the decisions, and I’m responsible. When others are making decisions for me, as they were in the campaign, and I am the one to live with the fallout from the decisions that were made on my behalf, that is something I am not very comfortable with.”

    She’s still got it.

  39. Eh, the Pope is *so* XIX-th century.
