- John McCain’s girlfriend Lindsey Graham went on a Sunday news-chat show and started lisping about John McCain’s dumb criticisms of Obama’s cool handling of the crazy Iran situation, and George Will said, “You, Lindsey Graham, are a pathetic old fool.” [Think Progress]
- John McCain is such a belligerent jackhole for making his idiotic, dangerous comments about how if HE somehow had become president, he would make sure that whole Iranian democratic revolution crashed as quickly as every plane he ever piloted … or so says Peggy Noonan, anyway.

The Washington Post editorial pages is quickly becoming the Marxist International Vanguard Quarterly except for neocons… you know what I’m talking about: that place where the last few remaining adherents to a long dead, long forgotten, ideology gather to publish jargon-laden tracts that seem blissfully unaware that what they have to say is little more than a quaint, if anachronistic echo of debates that were all the rage so many, many years ago, but no one outside a miniscule circle of ossified scholars (most of whom are on the editorial board) has taken seriously in decades.
[re=344109]Serolf Divad[/re]: TL;DR j/k . . .
Seriously though, perhaps WaPo should get fight it out with Pravda to figure out who’s more irrelevant?
Slansky of, like annoying thong chafing the asscrack; burlap sack and rocks into the river, posthaste. Pudding Pops.
[re=344109]Serolf Divad[/re]: Barking at the Wind or Where’d My Context Go?
I feel moved to speak on two points: Lindsey Graham is a fucktard, and on that Sunday chat-show he was again spinning the fabrication that Obama was being “timid and passive” on the situation in Iran.
My second point is that George Will made sense on Yiorgo’s Obtuse Table today and that means trouble. Additionally, the fact that Reich agreed with Will on healthcare means the rapture is imminent.
“He’s been timid and passive more than i would like,” (Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-Closet)) said of Obama.
I guess I was wrong about Lindsey. I always thought he was a bottom.
[re=344111]rambone[/re]: I dunno, Pravda carries this: http://english.pravda.ru/photo/report/Vodianova-238/3/ (NSFW most jobs)
What has the WaPo done for me lately?
It’s Sunday and it’s Father’s Day. Why are you working, Mr. Ken Layne?
Also, Graham. Effeminate.
[re=344118]hockeymom[/re]: Obviously something is going on with the liquor supply in D.C. I can’t think of any other reason. We’ll find out tomorrow morning when all the important CNN newspeople return to work.
Phew! Ms. Noonington had me worried for a sec…she was actually making sense for the first 2/3 of that article, but finished off with a rant about how Twitter and Google’s names are inappropriate historically and future innovators should be more thoughtful. thanks for not totally abandoning the crazy, Peggs.
Good Morning, Wonketteers!
Since rouge US Anti-President John S. McWalnut (R-Fail) is determined to start his long delayed WARGASM before his ‘missle’ falls off from age and disuse, perhaps the rest of us can prepare for the coming carnage by playing a few rounds of Amateur Surgeon – it’s almost as good as a EMT course, and so much quicker!
I call on all teevee moderators to ask any show guest who is no longer in office, or who has made the same remarks in the past two weeks, or who is running for future office:
“You have done enough. Have you no sense of decency, sir? At long last, have you left no sense of decency?”
Let us have a round table of of working people, or the unemployed, or the retired rather than give any more weight to those whose ideas are meant to serve only their own agendas rather than the nation.
And let us have legalized cannabis and the public flogging of Rush Limbaugh.
[re=344122]CivicHoliday[/re]: What about the speculation about how Twitter might have worked during the Jacobin terror. That was a doozie. I’m waiting for the next installment – how email could have saved the Roman Empire from collapse.
god, proliferatin’? dropping g’s in the url? really?
god, proliferatin’ in the url? really? folksy!
dammit. sorry people.
[re=344127]Numbat Dundee[/re]: [re=344122]CivicHoliday[/re]:
Also, what role might TMZ played in the whole Teapot Dome Scandal?
Obama could do a lot more to assist the Iranians:
– Encourage the early release of Twitter 2.0 Beta
– Fly Blackberries into Iran tied to little balloons.
– Free Flickr PRO ™ accounts for EVERYONE in Iran
– Moolah for Mullahs II
– Get a Fatwah ordering everyone in Iran to upgrade to IE 8.0
– Give a speech on Iranian TV: I-ran we can!
– Spread a rumor that Ahmaddinnajhad has Herpes
– Revoke their international centrifuge operator’s license
[re=344117]x111e7thst[/re]: Holy Cow, I think I’m gonna start reading Pravda on a regular basis!!
[re=344115]hoosiermama[/re]: “The Rapture!” I couldn’t remember what that fucking thing was called today. The Rejoicing? The Reform? The Renovation? It just escaped me, and I missed a good joke opportunity at the dinner table. Thank you.
Are Noonan and Will joining our side?
We’ll accept Peggy. She’s fun. George, not so much.
Hmmm…rusty ol’ North Korean freighter versus an 8900-ton Arleigh Burke -class destroyer that can do 30-plus knots at flank speed and armed with 90 ASROC missiles and 5-inch main gun? Uh huh, that’s a confrontation the NK skipper would want to avoid, so good luck with that.
[re=344109]Serolf Divad[/re]: And by that you mean Brady Bunch reunion?
[re=344116]mollymcguire[/re]: Linds is what one would call a “bossy” bottom.
[re=344122]CivicHoliday[/re]: Oh, she goes off the rails well before that. I think that you just succumbed to Noonan hypnosis before you noticed, though. Look, she says this:
If the American president, for reasons of prudence, does not make a public statement of the government’s stand, he could certainly refer, as if it is an obvious fact because it is an obvious fact, to whom the American people are for.
C’mon — it’s like Henry James arguing with himself. Is there a simpler way of expressing Ms. Noonan’s thought? How ’bout, “President Obama should say who he supports.” But no, that wouldn’t be roundabout enough.
[re=344143]mrsixinch[/re]: I get so turned on when you talk like that. Moar pleeze.
[re=344126]chascates[/re]: Instead of a public flogging of El Rushbo I call instead for a public tickling. You flog him he only becomes a martyr for the brain-challenged. You tickle him and everyone will see what a big fat baby he is, crying, saying uncle, doing anything to make it stop. Whatever respect he now commands will vanish instantly.
[re=344127]Numbat Dundee[/re]: How Photoshop would have transformed the Renaissance.
[re=344117]x111e7thst[/re]: A quick image search of Natalia Vodianova implies that she is not a big fan of clothing. If Putin concentrated on creating more of this type of export the Russian economy wouldn’t be subject to the ups and downs of the price of oil.
[re=344147]SayItWithWookies[/re]: So you’re saying Our Peggs is paid by the word?
[re=344150]hobospacejunkie[/re]: Just that she’s incapable of being direct. In this case, because she can barely bring herself to state that President Obama took the right position. She buries that statement in the middle of her essay, then quickly counteracts it with a “he made a mistake,” referencing something I’ve not heard. Well — she reached across the aisle for that ten seconds — shame on the Democrats for not reacting in the spirit of bipartisanship.
[re=344151]SayItWithWookies[/re]: I understand Peggy’s inability to say in 5 words what she can say in 55. I’m not sure if it’s considered a talent, but it’s something special.
I was trying to conjure the memory of a William Shatner appearance on SNL (12/20/1986) where he takes questions from a group of convention attendees whose brains he just cannot get through to. They take the wrong idea from his every pronouncement. So I was trying to show that I was taking the wrong idea from your earlier explanation, and not understanding the Pegginess of Pegg. Of course, this falls under the “if you have to explain the joke…”
And now it is very late. Until the morning.
Lindsey Graham is NOT John McCain’s girlfriend. He’s McCain’s magical pony.
[re=344117]x111e7thst[/re]: Now that’s what I call service journalism. Moar, please!
[re=344147]SayItWithWookies[/re]: ‘If the American president, for reasons of prudence, does not make a public statement of the government’s stand, he could certainly refer, as if it is an obvious fact because it is an obvious fact, to whom the American people are for.’
Does this woman have performance incentives in her contract that give her extra money for the most egregious overuse of commas in a single sentence?
In addition to the clothing-averse moddles Pravda provides important information such as:
Beheaded human body can stay alive and kicking!
Invisible poisonous skyfish fly at 300 km/h all around us. (This explains so much)
Greenland to become 51st state of the US.
An important slideshow of the most horrific bone fractures in soccer. (Are you paying attention here Hobo?)
All this plus tons of ads for the Russian Military Industrial Complex.
Who could resist?
[re=344109]Serolf Divad[/re]: Jackson Diehl Peep explains WaPoo editorial foreign policy positions.
And no, I’m not related to this blogger. But this kind of attention to Peep diorama detail deserves wider acclaim.

The WaPo is about to be purchased by the mid-Atlantic Penny Saver thus completing it’s de-evolution from the Nations flagship newspaper to a direct mail scam designed to get old people to pay for their Depends coupons.
[re=344147]SayItWithWookies[/re]: truly, her verbiage signifies the crazy well before she gives up and stops making sense entirely. i was actually just impressed that, for once, she actually had a semi-appropriate thought. even if it didn’t last long.
We’re starting out the week by agreeing with George Will and Fruity Peggles?!? No good can come of this.
[re=344117]x111e7thst[/re]: You know it’s probably not a Hollywood-approved publication, because those breasts look pretty real to me.
[re=344176]PsycGirl[/re]: Many care about the breasts (non HollyWood approved I agree) none care about the Invisible Poisonous Skyfish. This is what is wrong with America today.
[re=344126]chascates[/re]: Florida just passed new anti-pill-popping laws. Haven’t we hurt Rush enough?
USS John McCain: lists to starboard; leaves port without it’s nautical charts because it left them at the dock next to the picture of the grandkids.
[re=344310]S.Luggo[/re]: Does a series of three-sixties in the harbor due to the fact no one reailzes the rudder is stuck until tiring of the scenery, finally sails off towards target with both turn signals on the whole way.
[re=344148]hobospacejunkie[/re]: [re=344310]S.Luggo[/re]: [re=344325]trondant[/re]: Y’know, kid all you want, but this great nation of ours has a multi-billion Navy that could sweep the world’s oceans like a nuclear-powered Swiffer (TM) if necessary. What’s one or two leaky Communist arms-smuggling freighters to Uncle Sam’s maritime might? I say, put down your latest issue of Navy Times, clear the decks, batten down the hatches, man your battle stations, plot a firing solution and fire when ready, Gridley!
