Wonkette
- Once again, the Black Panthers have used their Beltway connections to evade the rule of law. How many books did Bobby Seale ghost write for you, Barack Obama? [RedState]
- Rahm Emanuel is selling ambassadorships and titles of nobility, at bargain-bin prices! A thoughtful gift for any occasion — birthdays, weddings, abortions, you name it! [Andrew Sullivan]
- David Vitter claims to represent “core conservative values.” Give it a rest, Vitter. We all know you’re straight, and just because you pay hookers to change your poopy diapers doesn’t really matter, as long as those hookers are ladies. [TPM]
- A privileged white man was arrested here, in DC, for singing the popular children’s song, “I Hate the Police, ee i ee i o.” He should have known better. Not even white people are allowed to have disorderly opinions. [HuffPost]
- Which is more distressing: Sarah Palin twittering about moose more often than health care, or the fact that Think Progress tallied up every word from every Palin Tweet, using spreadsheets and graphs and stuff? [Think Progress]
The name of the white guy who got arrested is Pepin Tuma. I would arrest him simply for having such a ridiculous name.
Pepin Tuma sounds like a complete horse’s arse.
I love it when Andrew Sullivan gets all shirty. Think the Court of St. James gives a damn?
To be fair, Palin’s moose count is brought up by that night where she got blasted on White Russians, started writing freestyle moose-based rap on Twitter in a rap battle with Cindy McCain and then passed out in front of the TV watching Ice Road Truckers
>>Rahm Emanuel’s shenanigans are getting worse than Karl Rove’s
I don’t think so Sully. Hot Karl leads Rahmbo in outed CIA agents 1 to 0.
How on earth did you miss the clip of Shatner reading Palin’s tweets immediately following the ThinkProgress post?!?! That’s MUCH more newsworthy!!
A privileged white man was arrested here, in DC
The world is broken up into cops and dirtbags. Dirtbags in descending order of how much violence they deserve are: White upstanding citizens, black upstanding citizens, economically questionables, and deaf constipated people using public restrooms.
I wonder how “chili” ranked in the Palin wordle?
mattbolt: I’m thinking some of Palin’s kids were sired by moose, and I mean that in the best possible way.
Think Progress tallied up every word from every Palin Tweet
Also!
It’s not a Tuma!
That Palin wordcloud would make a lot more sense with croutons and a little dijon vinagarette poured over it.
That’s funny because I, also, hate the police.
Think Progress: NERDS!
Palin’s speeches are wordclouds set to the hell-music that is her bloodcurdling voice.
I gave a couple hundred bucks to Hopey’s campaign. Where’s my ambassadorship? I have no problem not getting a big country like England or France but if they give me a small Caribbean island that nobody cares about I’d be fine.
tehbenton: Win.
Drunk belligerent frat-lawyer screams at police making a bust across the street. Problems ensue.
Yeah, I’d hire this guy to defend me. He really knows how to work the strings of power. Sheesh.
I go to Think Progress for more creative ways to spell the word republican (e.g. rethuglipican, repiglicans, repiglets, rethinknoticans ,etc)
after several minutes of serious consideration, my next band shall be called “Pepin Tuma and the Tweet Clouds”. done.
Crazybroad: How on earth did you miss that Wonkett didn’t miss that?
slithytoves: I don’t think it’s been here - this is becoming a regular feature on Conan’s show. Shatner recited tweets this time, not the resignation word salad.
Little known fact: As a teenager Obama belonged to a slightly militant group known as the black penguins. They would use almost anything (molotov water balloons, frightful hand gestures, verbal barks, partial nudity, gravity bongs) to attain their ends.
WadISay: On a bed of arugula….
Oh, boy:
Sen. David Vitter (R-LA) is responding sternly to Sen. George Voinovich (R-OH), who blamed Southerners for dragging the Republican Party’s fortunes down.
“I’m on the side of conservatives getting back to core conservative values,” Vitter told the Washington Times. “There are a lot of us from the South who hold those value, which I think the party is supposed to be about. We strayed from them in the past few years, and that’s why we performed so badly in the national elections.”
And, the response by the state’s Democratic Party:
Louisiana Democratic Party spokesman Kevin Franck e-mailed us a fun comment. “Last time I checked, you don’t find core Southern values in the places David Vitter has been found,” said Franck. “If David Vitter can lead his party back to their conservative values, maybe Larry Craig can give them tips on bathroom etiquette and Mark Sanford can recommend a really good restaurant in Buenos Aires.”
I snap! I love La.
Bullwinkle is really pissed! He’s refusing all comment on this outrage and won’t even return calls.
