DUBIOUS HONORS

DEVELOPING LONG & HARD ....SARA K. SMITH IS PRESIDENT OF DRUDGE REPORT: Your favorite Wonkette editrix is also writing comical blog posts serious journalism for NBC in, uh, New York. And Los Angeles. And she got a DRUDGE LINK for her very first piece, about how lonely puritanical Democrats don’t have any Sexy Scandals — it’s right there in bold, italic and underline in the right-hand column. This is the equivalent of winning the Pulitzer/Nobel/Oscar times 1 billion on your first day at work. [NBC New York/NBC Los Angeles/Drudge Report]

    Republicans have to be proud of something over the last 8 years, it might as well be for little boy, bathroom sex, and rubber-suit and dildo scandals. Sounds more like saturday night at Druge’s place, though.

  2. Dreadful Gate says at 1:29 pm, January 5th, 2009

    So where is the sexy byline picture of SKS. so we all know who we adore so much?

  3. Kev-O-Tron says at 1:31 pm, January 5th, 2009

    Our girl is so grown up! *sniffle

    Great column SKS! I don’t think we have anything to fear - Malkin and Redstate will be chasing this birth certificate story until WE ALL HEAR THE TRUTH!!!!!1!

  4. Cape Clod says at 1:32 pm, January 5th, 2009

    “Sara Smith also writes for the esteemed political philosophy journal Wonkette.”

    That actually sounds like something that could fool someone who didn’t know what Wonkette is all about.

    Hail SKS, Queen of all media.

  5. Aurelio says at 1:34 pm, January 5th, 2009

    How exciting! Yawn.

  6. shanemacgowan says at 1:35 pm, January 5th, 2009

    Don’t forget the No. 1 sex scandal of our time, the fact that Barry was conceived in Indonesia, thus making him inelligible to serve as POTUS.

  7. user-of-owls says at 1:36 pm, January 5th, 2009

    Howard K. Smith
    Sara K. Smith

    …birds of a fine feather. Felicitaciones!

  8. rmontcal says at 1:36 pm, January 5th, 2009

    When you get tired of repetitive workaday snark in the Wonkette comments, ask Jeebus for a extra-medial article by a Wonkette editor for a brand new kind of commenting fun!

    “What an infantile article.”
    “What a silly article. Love the junior highs opinions and grammar.”
    “I don’t understand which side you are on after reading this, or what you are reallly trying to say as a conclusion.” <- FTW!

  9. Cape Clod says at 1:36 pm, January 5th, 2009

    Where is on Drudge, by the way? All I found was a story about a woman who drowned trying to save her dog and how terroists are going to attack us with insect swarms.

  10. Sassette says at 1:38 pm, January 5th, 2009

    No sex scandals? What about those two black children Barack Obama fathered?!

  11. Kev-O-Tron says at 1:40 pm, January 5th, 2009

    Sassette: brilliance - thanks for that.

  12. Wonkette rules our world.

  13. V572625694 says at 1:46 pm, January 5th, 2009

    Now we’re going to lose her. How will life be worth living once the mainstream media elevate SKS to her rightful goddesshood? Can she really be happy in a Truck-Nut$ free environment, where the word “assfucking” is not a commonplace?

  14. SwanSwanH says at 1:46 pm, January 5th, 2009

    Congratulations on being aggregated, Sara. Does this mean you get to replace Andrew Breitbart as “Matt Drudge’s bitch?”

    Oh, and ask one of your colleagues at NBCUniversalGeneralElectricVivendi when the fuck “Friday Night Lights” will be back on my TV.

  15. Naked Bunny with a Whip says at 1:47 pm, January 5th, 2009

    Congratulations, Sara! I imagine you need to shower for a long, long time now.

    I’ll scrub your back, mm-kay?

  16. HuskyMescan says at 1:47 pm, January 5th, 2009

    Since you’re down with Boi Drudge, can you send him a copy of Dreamweaver or something? I feel like listening to Martika everytime i go to his circa 1995 website.

  17. Delicious says at 1:48 pm, January 5th, 2009

    rmontcal: What she is trying to say is…

    She hates Mondays. And it’s Monday.

    I will now hang myself.

  18. I love how you guys to get to write your own ID blurbs.

    Gob is a frequent commentator on the vilest, most salacious and depraved blog on the Internet. He also comments at Wonkette.

  19. Anonymous Office Zombie says at 1:54 pm, January 5th, 2009

    Congrats to Sarah.

    So, in the eyes of Drudge, does this article make Sarah more a part of the LIEberal Media Conspiracy because she’s writing for the MSM now, or does it make her less a part because she’s criticizing the Demrat Libtards?

  20. Scandalabra says at 1:54 pm, January 5th, 2009

    But when is SKS going to join The View?

  21. ‘editrix’: oh, God…

  22. Serolf Divad says at 1:57 pm, January 5th, 2009

    SKS, can I have your babies? And given that that’s not biologically possible, if I dressed in an over-sized diaper could we pretend I was your baby?

    P.S. Baby’s been a bad, bad, boy. Time for a spanking.

    P.P.S. Egads, I think I’m turning Republican!

  23. actor212 says at 1:59 pm, January 5th, 2009

    So does this mean Sara is also the Eggman. Koo koo cachoo!

  24. Nigerian Business Executive says at 2:01 pm, January 5th, 2009

    And to think, on her very first day so many were awful to SKS just because she wasn’t what’s-her-face, who got fired for being a self-indulgent, egomaniacal, tantrum-spewing, failed vice-president of the student council. Or maybe that was just my take on her dismissal.

    In any case, I’m looking forward to writing stunning reviews of your books on Amazon some day, SKS

  25. Kev-O-Tron says at 2:03 pm, January 5th, 2009

    Gob: I know that’s pretty slick I don’t know how to put this in italics but mine reads:

    Kev-O-Tron was once mentioned on CNN and it was the most important moment of his life (excluding that time on Friday when he got laid). He also drinks heavily and will pee on you if you make him angry.

  26. Capitol Hillbilly says at 2:07 pm, January 5th, 2009

    are the 2009 SKS calendars sold out?

  27. Serolf Divad: No, SKS isn’t paid enough for your proto-Republican shenanigans.

  28. professor.cj says at 2:07 pm, January 5th, 2009

    “She loves lasagna and hates Mondays.” Sara = Garfield. Love you Sara.

  29. MARCdMan says at 2:15 pm, January 5th, 2009

    Nigerian Business Executive: you’ve got something on your nose there…

  30. BigDupa says at 2:17 pm, January 5th, 2009

    Next SKS will be writing for Time. After that, editor of Carpet Muncher Bugle. Think I’ve seen this movie…

  31. user-of-owls says at 2:20 pm, January 5th, 2009

    Serolf Divad: No, you’re turning Franken.

  32. ManchuCandidate says at 2:22 pm, January 5th, 2009

    Serolf Divad:
    I knew it. Serolf is code for Rettiv.

  33. Lascauxcaveman says at 2:31 pm, January 5th, 2009

    I loves me some SKS, but, …Democrats have reclaimed the White House and both parties of Congress

    Ouch.

  34. daisy chain says at 2:34 pm, January 5th, 2009

    HuskyMescan: Dude, my thoughts exactly. I had never actually been to Drudge Report before. I thought I had been sucked through a wormhole to 1996. Me and Mr. Drudge need to have a talk about style sheets. That website’s got all the sophistication of a white supremacist windshield flyer.

  35. actor212 says at 2:38 pm, January 5th, 2009

    Lascauxcaveman: Caveman, didn’t you hear Pelosi tell Boehner, “You my bitch now!”?

  36. glamourdammerung says at 2:38 pm, January 5th, 2009

    Kev-O-Tron: Mine would just be:

    “Glamourdammerung once got busy in a Burger King bathroom”

    which is hardly impressive.

  37. glamourdammerung says at 2:40 pm, January 5th, 2009

    daisy chain: Well, there are a lot of full closets in the Aryan Nations, if you know what I mean.

  38. Mr Blifil says at 2:41 pm, January 5th, 2009

    Yeah, like it took Wonkette to bring out her talent.

    Face it boyz, you were seat warmers, and those are her butt prints on yer gobsmacked faces.

    3 months from now she’ll pretend at parties that she’s never even met you before.

  39. Editor SK Smith says at 2:41 pm, January 5th, 2009

    Lascauxcaveman: Ha ha, well, this time I have a copy editor to blame for overlooking this egregious error.

  40. S.Luggo says at 2:45 pm, January 5th, 2009

    By Krispy Krust: “Could this article be more cutesy and less substantial? I doubt it. Whether it was intended as hard news, opinion or infotainment, this is simply a poor piece of writing on every level. That it got published by any credible news site is sad.Could this article be more cutesy and less substantial? I doubt it.

    Suckah.

  41. S.Luggo says at 2:46 pm, January 5th, 2009

    Mr Blifil: “3 months from now she’ll pretend at parties that she’s never even met you before.” She does that now.

  42. duker155 says at 2:47 pm, January 5th, 2009

    Both parties in Congress? Well that certainly explains why nothing is getting done up there. Will Barack Obama save the economy by having only one party on Capitol Hill at a time? The bean dip alone….

  43. HuskyMescan says at 2:53 pm, January 5th, 2009

    daisy chain: I guess she has to keep it simple for the conservatards and cromagnon-types who have gone beyond AM radio and Hannity.

  44. Congrats. I hear that a Drudge link comes with a coupon for free Hamas waffles and a special limited-edition brass TruckNutz.

  45. chascates says at 2:57 pm, January 5th, 2009

    We may have to put up with giantess Campbell Brown or the like lest we lose erudite Sara or wise=man Layne or any of the others. If they’re actually getting paid to write elsewhere it’ll be hard to keep them here on the Wonkette farm.

  46. jagorev says at 3:00 pm, January 5th, 2009

    For a while, that link was actually at the top of the Drudge page, above the masthead. This is roughly equivalent to being chosen to be the Republican VP nominee.

  47. WadISay says at 3:04 pm, January 5th, 2009

    Great, now we will all have to get right with the New York Times Manual of Style about whether it’s ass fucking, ass-fucking or assfucking.

  48. articulate moran says at 3:10 pm, January 5th, 2009

    Congrats Sarah, I hope all this success doesn’t go to your head.

    Nothing like a Drudge link to send and ego into overdrive.

  49. chascates says at 3:13 pm, January 5th, 2009

    Man, that Drudge site is full of news you CAN’T GET ANY WHERE ELSE unless you have waaay too much time on your hand and low standards of what news actually is:

    GROUNDED: Indian airline sacks overweight stewardesses… Woman drowns trying to save dog from frozen pond… HORROR: Firetruck Runs Over Firefighter…

  50. HuskyMescan says at 3:22 pm, January 5th, 2009

    I think that Sara’s article has been Wonkitaminated-

    Chalie Daniel’s Taint:
    Jim:”Don’t forget the new Franken/Dem corruption stealing elections by counting duplicate votes in precincts that favor Franken. Now that’s a new level of corruption.”
    Wow, that sounds cool and almost real. It could happen I guess, but if it were only true. Wait! Did you get this from gay boi Drudge? or did Hannity dump this Cleveland Steamer directly into your mouth?

    The stupid libtards are infiltrating.

  51. bitchincamaro says at 3:32 pm, January 5th, 2009

    Looking at that site totally reminds me of staying up late in high school trying to finish some lame excuse of a book report on my grandfather’s pre-historic typewriter. With carbon paper! Not good. But loving SKS’ insurectionism. Is that a word?

  52. qwerty42 says at 4:11 pm, January 5th, 2009

    Well, Sara’s article makes a good point; where do we get legislators offering bj’s to undercover cops? and the super tuber? And how the hell can you top the wetsuit/dildo combination (and to make it tougher: two wetsuits!)? Truly the GOP has set a high bar with this. A very high bar. Once we’re all living in the hobo jungle, we’ll look back on these as “the good old days”. then we’ll cry. or laugh, not sure.

  53. Larry Craig is a US senator, and also once got busy in an airport bathroom.

  54. Lionel Hutz Esq. says at 5:05 pm, January 5th, 2009

    Congrats, Sara, but before you get too big of head, Drudge also considers a fund-raising email from Dick Morris to be news.

  55. Packherd says at 5:20 pm, January 5th, 2009

    It’s hard to tell if the comments are by dumb conservatives or dumb liberals pretending to be dumb conservatives.
