Meanwhile, is the a Sleestack from Land of the Lost on the TeeVee behind Karl Rove, I’m just sayin’.

Snarkalicious September 8, 2009 at 5:23 pm

Is a Chavez anything like a Sanchez?

Heywood Jablome September 8, 2009 at 5:24 pm

Plushophiliacs…Jergens lotion…pebbles and Estes rockets in one sentence!

Rove is just pissed at himself for not having Dubya do this student speech thing. All he came up with was to have Dubya read some lines from “My pet goat.” Lame.

a woman describing the Dem health care proposals as an effort to “plunder” from some in order to satisfy arbitrary needs as determined by bureaucrats.

And that plunder also includes foreign wars, aid to Israel, NASA, and killing wild donkeys. Come to think of it I don’t want any of my tax dollars going to anything except me. And maybe killing a couple of donkeys.

Karl Rove’s crimes should be subject to Sharia Law. 200 lashes plus both hands cut off for foisting W the Not Ready on an unsuspecting world.

[re=404983]Heywood Jablome[/re]: Indeed, the snark is strong in this one.

And by “snark” I mean “Denby is a cockfaced shitfarmer.”

Mr Blifil September 8, 2009 at 5:32 pm

Is Karl Rove not sufficiently titillated by hanging around pre-school playgrounds that he must concern himself with whom students are writing to in the government? One thing I can state categorically: Karl never responded to any of the letters I sent to him, and I claimed to be a nine-year old girl in every one of them.

Haha, “Commentary”. The “Laughably stupid band of wingnuts too pussy to defend themselves in blog comments.”

They banned comments about 4 months ago, which is kind of a “win” for those of us bothering the shit-for-brains clientele with sane ideas, but a big loss for humor. You could basically type “Obama” and those assholes would get immediately get wound up into a (really funny) furious raging ball of glowing hating rage. Now I have to actually write out an email to Peter Wehner when I want to remind him what a douchebag stooge he is, and that she never loved him, and she won’t be coming back, and that I don’t know much about the “other guy” except that he’s a gymnast and it’s the best sex she’s ever had.

Dear Karl:

Mommy taught me that I should never use naughty words like “fucking” and “douchebag,” but she said that if I was talking about you, it was okay.

If Karl Rove really thought that was a dirty trick he wouldn’t be criticizing it — he’d be adopting it himself. Too bad he didn’t have a literate president to work with.

chascates September 8, 2009 at 5:42 pm

[re=404997]Mr Blifil[/re]: Try claiming to be a nine-year-old boy and see if he responds.

Karl Rove kicks babies to relax.

The United States of America is in danger of losing its status as the foremost defender of regressive values in the Developed World as its regressive policies, specifically regarding Health Care, Education & Poverty, threaten to disqualify it as …a member of the Developed World. Cue a cavalcade of crocodile tears & tiny violins.

On a slightly different topic Riley can you confirm that if Erika (or whatever) quits Real World DC, that you are not the replacement for her?

How come nobody but FAUX NOISE will ask, of all people, Karl Rove what he thinks about teh lil chitlins?

if a pulled finger works as a down payment, what’s payment in full? a tickled palm? cuzz if that’s all it takes, i’m looking to talk to bank of america about hands and digits.

Lascauxcaveman September 8, 2009 at 6:23 pm

For all you do, Mr. Rove, here’s hoping the White House has its resident Voodoo priestess re-animate the embalmed corpse of Julia Child and have her sauté a bag of fresh lightly salted poison rat dicks with roast garlic and perhaps a soupçon of cumin, and then force it it to you with her grey, crumbling fingers.

WickedWitch September 8, 2009 at 6:23 pm

Joe Kennedy already pulled out — see what happens when Wonkette’s not around to entertain us drunkards on Labor Day?????

And yes — he had both a girl problem and a Chavez problem. Sweet.

I’ll take that $20, lady. I spent all my money this weekend at Dragon*con, buying science fiction books about furries.

Congressman “Norm Dicks” (D-WA) should seriously consider changing his name to Rod Orangeskin Squarejaw or something.

Holding Out for a Hero September 8, 2009 at 7:23 pm

Holding Out for a Hero is deeply concerned that there are still people in the country who care what Karl Rove thinks. Can’t we rapture these folks or if God isn’t in the mood, at least send them before a death panel?

Naked Bunny with a Whip September 8, 2009 at 7:26 pm

It’s “plushophile”, not “plushophiliac”. A plushophiliac is someone who hemorrhages adorable fuzzy cuteness (like me). I am outraged at Wonkette’s outrageously bad journalism in this outrageously serious issue, which is an outrage. Almost as outraged as Commentary Magazine is at Nazi memorabilia collectors, for being obvious bleeding-heart liberals who enjoy Nazi stuff. Because that’s what liberals do, because they hate Western civilization, with which Hitler had no part, being a Chinese commie.

My remaining ounce of sobriety is also an outrage.

Servo September 8, 2009 at 7:49 pm

Lotsa big, red stars for the best “What I can do for Socialism” essays. That should be enough to get ol’ Karl Provolone’s head to explode. Or do we need to break out the Che berets as required school attire?

Paul Tardy September 8, 2009 at 8:02 pm

I don’t know if I want to live in a country where a man cannot collect Nazi anti aircraft badges. Lot’s of Nazi anti aircraft badges.

[re=404992]hobospacejunkie[/re]: If you cut off both of Rove’s hands, he won’t have any friends.
Yes, I see your diabolical plan. And approve.

Servo September 8, 2009 at 8:51 pm

[Marc] Garlasco, the Nazi-memorabilia collector.
Gee, Noah. Perhaps Marc is just that – a collector. Scour the States, you’ll find a lot of collectors of WWII memorabilia, even of *gasp* Nazi origin. You don’t see them goose-steppin’ around town. Go to a model manufacturer’s or distributer’s website and peruse the countless kits of Axis aircraft and armor available. Some folks are simply fascinated with military history, regardless of how ugly.
Funny how I didn’t see any mention of the Pope.

LoweredPeninsula September 8, 2009 at 10:31 pm

Why is it that folks like Rove conveniently skip over the fact that the daddy of the guy he worked for (former President George H.W. Bush), explicitly asked schoolchildren, in a nationally televised speech, to send him letters to help the administration “achieve our goals”? Forget the snarky rhetorical question about Rove; why isn’t every Democrat in America revealing this hypocrisy?

If I was a cable news anchor with any kind of conscience, every time some idiot brought this ‘issue’ of Obama speaking to schoolchildren up, I’d play the video on loop for the rest of the hour. This is a complete non-issue, but the media is pretending as if it were something legitimate to be discussed.

Will someone in the administration just charge Rove with one of his plethora of crimes, yet?

Isn’t that like saying, “If I was a magical winged pony”?
