Oh, George Will, what will offend your delicate sensibilities next? Last night, our nation’s remaining bow-tied commentator complained about Obama and wingnut Senator Tom Coburn sharing a loving embrace. When did all this “straight” male hugging start, George? Oh, we don’t know, maybe the 1948 World Series or the 1955 World Series or something? Check one of those baseball books you fart out every couple of months. [ABC News/Media Matters]

Geo Will’s man-hugging endorsement next to the advert for the Democratic stimulus package are getting me all a-flutter.
See what hugging did to baseball! The Indians have not won the World Series since 1948. Brooklyn won for the first time in 1955, two years later they disappeared.
…in the eyes of Republicans, its only gay if you do it in public.
MORE MAN HUGS, PLZ
He is SO just jealous
“The President is still holding out his hand.”
Yeah, I like the lewd emphasis George gave to the phrase “holding out his hand.” So what are you saying, George? Obama is as fruity as Larry Craig?
That sort of childish innuendo is more suited to Rush Limbaugh.
…and George will gets caught with his dick up some little kids ass in 5…4…3…2…1
GEORGE WILL DOES NOT APPROVE OF THIS “HUGGING” BIT. As Barry was hugging “the most Conservative member of congress,” it probably entailed a reach-around.
And a butterstick. Also.

The reason that is funny? BECAUSE I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THE HELL IT MEANS. I neither fart, nor read baseball. Clearly I am missing something here. *fart*
George Stehpanopolous, please give George Will the hug he is so desperately asking for in his own passive aggressive way!
Anyone with hair that bad should stick with print.
Good Will Hugging
Oh, and he is a WASP extraordinaire, and hugging and cheek kissing, etc (or showing any emotion) are “ethnic”, and thus verboten.
George’s problem? He never learned how to masturbate.
I’m strangely transfixed by Will’s hair. Has it always swirled around his head in that manner?
“Sir, I do not know when men began hugging, but if you insist on comporting yourself like some common ragamuffing street urchin I do not suppose I can stop you. Do not, however, entertain the delusion that you can drag me down to your level of uncouthness by example of your faddish and vile behavior. If the good Lord had intended for gentlemen to engage in such familiarity, He would have left us living in vermin-infested caves, clothed in animal hides, so that we could engage in the pleasant pastime of picking the lice off one anothers’ bodies. Good day, sir.”
[re=252326]Gorillionaire[/re]: What the hell? It’s only 9:55 a.m. in California, HAVE SOME MERCY fer gawd sake. George Will+Masturbation= WAY TOO HAWT.
[re=252319]Doglessliberal[/re]: The guy has got to have enough money to buy a better toupee. I mean you would think he’d make it a priority, what with being on the teevee and everything.
If he can’t hug guys, I’d like to see his reaction with the big black woman hugging him
I’m going to give Will a pass on this one. It’s not the potentially homoerotic part of the equation he’s uncomfortable with, it’s the showing of any kind of emotion or affection in any public setting. He’s a WASP.
George Will has a sad. His father never showed him any affection. The only man to ever hug him was a bow-tied “uncle”. It has been the great unreported secret of his life.
All that kissing he’s been seeing on the teevee these days is embarrassing him.
[refers to notes he took in previous thread]
Stormy Daniels is HAWT!
I think it’s a truism in life that you should always take your cues of what masculinity is from a guy in a bow tie.
His mentally retarded man-child once hugged him and got choco pudding on his lapel. So he strangled him and wrote a book about it.
My home’s in Montana
I wear a bandana
my spurs are of silver
my pony is gay
Barry is one crafty bastard. He’s hugging the people most ideologically opposed to him and his agenda to overwhelm them with his siren pheromones. The victim then goes home all discombobulated and for the next several weeks has to deal with spontaneous erections whenever they see Barry or hear his name. Eventually, instead of voting “nay” on his proposals they start voting “Yea, oh God, yea” on pure autopilot.
[re=252352]Mustang[/re]: If it is a toupee, that is better than if he consciously “styles” it with that enormous comb-over. It is like Donald Trump’s, but thicker, and without the dye.
Is there part of the clip I’m not seeing? Because I didn’t hear him utter a single word of complaint (other than to say he didn’t know when it started, which isn’t actually a complaint). George Will simply noted that Obama hugged “the most conservative member of the Senate”, and Will attributes this to Obama’s desire for bipartisanship. I’d say it was a compliment.
George won’t kiss them on the mouth, either. He can look at homself in the mirror without crying that way.
I’m just going to say that Coburn looked as uncomfortable with the hug as Will did.
Silly Hopey, don’t you know that you can only man-hug Republicans until you get to the toilet stalls?
Yeah, cause there’s never been hugging in baseball.

Honestly, all kidding aside, can you think of anybody more consistently in need of a hug over the last several years? He probably wants to just put on some birkenstocks, go out on his back porch, wiggle his toes in the breeze, crank the stereo and smoke a little weed. Instead has to prance around in Irving R. Levine’s leftover wardrobe, every week trying to make some prolix argument about how Conservatism is going to save the day, in the face of the absolutely relentless republican f—ups of the last eight years. How much fun is that?
George, come on over to the house some night, we don’t have any weed, but I’ll give you a cold beer, you can play catch with the kids, and at the end of the night, on the way out, I’ll give you a totally-above-board but sincere hug.
Websters needs to throw out whatever definition they had of the word “touché” and just substitute this post.
Methinks George “The Dandy” Will doth protest too much, or maybe focuses on… odd… things.
And seeing BoJin speak last night reminded me of my very favour-ite Onion article of all time.

Oh George — your lips so ‘no hugging’, but your precious bow tie says ‘turn me into the naughty girl I have always wanted to be!’
I think I see next years super bowl Bud Lite ad being put together now. What WILL be the ‘new’ man-hug?
[re=252399]snideinplainsight[/re]: Win, for the Irving R. Levine reference alone.
Man hugging will lead to all manner of unspeakable behaviors. Like ass patting in locker rooms, massage with happy ending in steam rooms, and performances on celebrity “dance” competitions. And buttsecks. Also.
George Will hasn’t been hugged since he was four, and even then it creeped his mother out.
Why does anyone listen to this loser?

You say that as though Fwill has ever voluntarily spent any time in the company of his offspring. Hey, if the kid wanted to see Daddy, he should have known better than to be born with a developmental disability! Fwill got the hell out of there and found a nice trophy wife without a poison womb, also.
He meant to say, when did men start hugging each other IN PUBLIC? In DC-DownLow bowtie code, a brown speckled bowtie paired with a white dress shirt signals an interest in Felching— as the recipient. Fwill’s just saying, ‘Barry don’t BLOW our cover.’
I love George Will’s hair! It’s like Jimmy Johnson’s, only with a deeper part.
I bet George wishes he could hug Tim Russert once more.
George Will You Just Go Away
(you & your baseball books you fart out every couple of months)
(& your little dog too!)
Why is it you can watch pretty much every stupid Andy Sandburg bit on YouTube but the Dana Carvey George Will Sports Machine skit is no where to be found?
Personally, I’m doing all I can to help this meme become common.
I even walk up to total strangers in bars and hug them.
I’m so committed to this, that I’ll take random men home and hug them under the covers all night.
[re=252613]actor212[/re]: Boom-tish!
I thought that was an ad for popcorn.
[re=252399]snideinplainsight[/re]: prance around in Irving R. Levine’s leftover wardrobe
HA! Brilliant description. Though I guess only us olds will get the funny.
“I’m Irving R. Levine…NBC News.”
He’s still alive, you know.
[re=252541]Campbell Brown[/re]: Oh, but yes it is.
SayItWithWookies: You just won a free can of hobo beans and a couple of tea bags my friend.
