  • RANDOM DEMOCRAT IN SOUTH CAROLINA GETS RICH, FOR DOING NOTHING: We have been watching the campaign donation tally since last night for Democrat Rob Miller, 2010 opponent of weird shouter guy Joe Wilson, and holy baloney. Earlier today it was $100,000, then $150,000, but according to whatever most recent e-mail whatever liberal organization just sent out, it is now $450,000! Think of all the free Joe Wilson apparel he can buy with this sum, especially with those “South Carolina prices.” [AP]

  1. Wilson made the best Democrat money-raisin’ speech yet this election cycle again?

  2. Until he can prove he can bring the crazy, he ain’t getting a dime from me!

    I’m still waiting for the hot pink t-shirt with Lt. Gov. Andre’s pic on it and the caption, “I’m not gay, but by boyfriend is.”

  4. Harold Cook, of the Texian province of Dumfukistan, totally nailed it earlier today! Check out his take on Screamin’ Joe at: http://www.lettersfromtexas.com/2009/09/confidential-memorandum.html

  7. It’s all that czarist gold being used by the commies.

  8. This asshole will get reelected in an landslide. In the South people will smile at you, then stab you in the back. He is no better than those townhall knownothings.

  9. grevillea says at 5:32 pm, September 10th, 2009

    queeraselvis v 2.0: You don’t know what discrimination is till you’ve been a slim unmarried guy with immaculate hair and an interest in interior decorating, just trying to get on in Southern Republican politics.

  10. hobospacejunkie says at 5:35 pm, September 10th, 2009

    GreatOldOnesParty: Ew. Rep. Joe has a boner.

    Unless that’s actually a cross-dressing dude with buckteeth & a face covered with boils.

  11. Lionel Hutz Esq. says at 5:35 pm, September 10th, 2009

    But it is South Carolina, so won’t the crazy person win no matter what?

  12. Speed Ball says at 5:37 pm, September 10th, 2009

    If Rep. Wilson was a bank there would be anxious depositors lined up for miles waiting to withdrawl their life savings.

  13. GreatOldOnesParty: I like the way Joe’s feigning wearing an eye-patch.

  14. SayItWithWookies says at 5:39 pm, September 10th, 2009

    Jim89048: Hell, he’s a South Carolina Democrat — how much saner could he be than the South Carolina Republicans?

  15. grevillea says at 5:39 pm, September 10th, 2009

    GreatOldOnesParty: “A purty young thing, like you, a lobbyist? Well, Ah’d be happy to give you mah input, hur hur!”

  16. GreatOldOnesParty says at 5:42 pm, September 10th, 2009

    Blingee on the way.

  17. JooJoo Bee says at 5:45 pm, September 10th, 2009

    South Carolina has been the Land of Loose Canons since the attack on Fort Sumpter started the War Between the Glorious War Dead, or whatever that was.

  18. It’s time Repubs get it over with and hold a gang news conference doing their best Jimmy Swaggart impressions.

  19. chascates says at 5:46 pm, September 10th, 2009

    South Carolina, where White makes Right and God rewards His Servants with Sexytime.

  20. GreatOldOnesParty: Nice Two-Face impression, Joe!

  21. Long Form Def Certificate says at 5:50 pm, September 10th, 2009

    Wilson was just upset that Obie did not heed Saxby’s request to conduct his Presidential self in a deferential manner.

  22. GreatOldOnesParty says at 5:51 pm, September 10th, 2009
  23. El Pinche says at 5:53 pm, September 10th, 2009

    GreatOldOnesParty: He’s got that “I wanna rape you” look. Why do these republicans all look like sundried testicles?

  24. GreatOldOnesParty: The left side of his face was trying to keep the right side from ogling her boobs.

  25. queeraselvis v 2.0 says at 5:55 pm, September 10th, 2009

    GreatOldOnesParty: Not nearly enough “Playa.” The whole Satanic leering thing, however, is well worth a Lindsay clap.

  26. GreatOldOnesParty says at 5:57 pm, September 10th, 2009

    queeraselvis v 2.0: That was the other theme I considered.

  27. Downtheroadapiece says at 6:00 pm, September 10th, 2009

  28. GreatOldOnesParty: Brilliant, except for the tie. It’s over-the-top. Please show some taste next time.

    El Pinche: Hmmmmmm.

  31. Dear Media:

    Why is Joe Wilson entitled to all of this free news coverage? I was jumping up and down in my seat with my skirt over my head, waving pom-poms and screaming “UGFD YPKCH DRRCKL” as loud as possible. Please accord me the fair and balanced coverage that I have earned for being bat-shit crazy.

    Thank you,

    Rep. Michelle Bachmann

  32. american mutt says at 6:08 pm, September 10th, 2009

    I was receiving checks in the mail. I figgered Demeecrats must be back in office.

  33. GreatOldOnesParty says at 6:09 pm, September 10th, 2009

    Jim, plz, plz, plz use the AP picture of Wilson next time.
    thx.

  34. slappypaddy says at 6:11 pm, September 10th, 2009

    too soon. election’s too far away, electorate attention span’s too short. premature ejaculection. addison will have to keep the fuck-ups coming, though that may not be too hard. he may not be getting much traction up capitol hill anymore when it comes to scoring dollars for his district.

  35. Snarkalicious says at 6:14 pm, September 10th, 2009

    GreatOldOnesParty: Beautiful. Hey..what’s the over/under on that chick’s age?

  36. One Yield Regular says at 6:23 pm, September 10th, 2009

    GreatOldOnesParty: “Why certainly, darlin’. I’ll be sure to give this note of encouragement to the children of the Iraq and the South Africa and such as. You’re very welcome.”

  37. Wilson you say, Wilson? Wasn’t he the always present but never seen neighbor on “Home Improvement?”

  38. Naked Bunny with a Whip says at 6:25 pm, September 10th, 2009

    We have been watching the campaign donation tally since last night

    I certainly hope you’ve been drunk most of that time, or I’ll be a sad bunny.

  39. Birthers of a Nation: The Addison (”Joe”) Wilson Story

    Here’s to that Southern fried fool
    Who’s Big Pharma’s favorite tool!
    He rather suck cock,
    Or serve in Iraq,
    Than drink ‘Bama’s Aid of the Kool.

  40. Athar: The soccer ball.

  41. Better American Than You says at 6:36 pm, September 10th, 2009

    Here is a fine photo of Joe lecturing a protester on flag desecration:

  42. President Beeblebrox says at 6:43 pm, September 10th, 2009

    Yes, well, Hilton Head is, after all, the place that still has real live Plantations, where rich Whites play golf all day behind secured gates and are tended to Darkies who live in shantytowns.

    I’d say fuck HHI, but they have great beaches, and the soul food restaurants where said Darkies live are pretty amazing.

    Would be nice if this Dem knocked off Mister Wilson, but Elven Tinkleberger or whatever his name was pulled in a million after Bachmann went batshit and he still lost.

  43. chascates says at 6:47 pm, September 10th, 2009

    A lot of the positive comments on Wilson’s remark include “calling a spade a spade.” Just heard one guy say it on NPR and have several others on various sites.

    But it’s NOT racist, they add.

  44. BlueStateLibtard says at 6:55 pm, September 10th, 2009

    Athar: Wilson was also Tom Hanks’ friend on that deserted island, remember?

  45. SparkleKitty says at 6:57 pm, September 10th, 2009

    Well, lookie lookie who’s come a beggin, all teary-eyed and hat-in-hand…. Why, it’s Mr. Addison Graves Wilson, that’s who!

    Quote from Wilson’s website:

    “Now, I need your help. Last night, the liberals used my outburst as a rallying cry behind my Democratic opponent. Some of the nation’s most liberal online activists have helped him raise over $400,000 in just a few short hours.”

    As I said, I will continue to passionately fight against the Democrats’ big-government agenda, but I can’t do that if we let the Democrats take this seat.

    Will you stand with me today by donating to my campaign? It will take a lot of work, but I know we can match what the liberals poured into my opponent’s bank account last night, and fight back against the Democrats’ unwavering attacks.

  46. BklynIlluminati says at 7:07 pm, September 10th, 2009

    This all would have ended much more satisfying if Rahm pimp slapped this ho. Then said “Da Man says you lost your DC privileges, leave or the next visit you get is from Uncle Joe B”

    Well that’s how it would have happened if it was in Brooklyn anyways.

  49. nbawriter says at 7:31 pm, September 10th, 2009

    I thought it was a well-delivered two-word speech by a volleyball with Tom Hanks’ blood for a face and bamboo for hair.

    Wait, the South Carolina congressman isn’t that Wilson? Dag.

  50. One Yield Regular says at 7:31 pm, September 10th, 2009

    SparkleKitty: The funeral baked meats did coldly furnish forth the marriage tables.

  51. desertwind says at 7:36 pm, September 10th, 2009

    GreatOldOnesParty: Aw. The AP is just so darn mean to That Yeller Feller.

  52. Better American Than You: Dear lord! I don’t ever want to meet that guy because I’d have to cold bitch slap him just for existing.

  53. nbawriter says at 8:05 pm, September 10th, 2009
  54. nbawriter: Nice use of the chest full of whore diamonds.

  55. chascates says at 8:16 pm, September 10th, 2009

    Joe Wilson also said Essie Mae Washington-Williams lied when she admitted to being his hero Strom Thurmond’s illegitimate daughter. He deemed the revelation “unseemly.” And he added that even if she was telling the truth, she should have kept the inconvenient facts to herself:

    “It’s a smear on the image that [Thurmond] has as a person of high integrity who has been so loyal to the people of South Carolina,” Wilson said.

    And he voted to keep the Confederate battle flag flying atop the state’s capitol. Heritage, don’t you know.

  56. smellyal8r says at 8:19 pm, September 10th, 2009

    Wilson will win again. His constituents are happy he called Obama a liar. As one of them said during a “man on the street” interview in Columbia, the state capitol, “he’s just calling a spade a spade,” and said it with no trace of irony. And, if the GOP in the Lege want to impeach Mark Sanford, go ahead, but he ain’t quittin’ no matter how many letters they write. These SC boys think they are bullet proof (because they keep gettin’ re-elected).

  57. Advocatus_Diaboli says at 8:23 pm, September 10th, 2009

    BadKitty: I think that person is Hank Hill come to life. Without the liberalism.

  58. schvitzatura says at 8:24 pm, September 10th, 2009

    I’m moving to the Palmetto State, establishing residency, and filing (D)-affiliation candidacy in the fed congressional district with the next GOP tool most likely to go full retard Tourette’s.

    It’s like printing your own money, courtesy of ActBlue!

  59. schvitzatura says at 8:29 pm, September 10th, 2009

    P.S.

    I promise I’ll only be there for one term, and spending all my time outside my district…please forward all calls to my DC office.

  60. BlueStateLibtard says at 8:37 pm, September 10th, 2009

    I am moving to the Palmetto State, establishing residency, and filing papers for the “General Sherman Had The Right Idea” Party. I will lavishly broadcast this message in print and TV ads, and will relax and enjoy myself while the wingnuts’ heads explode.

  61. BlueStateLibtard: For $450,000 we should really be getting our money’s worth. How about a campaign of Democratic “operatives” to infiltrate the South and convince them to secede again?

  62. Just give him the country!

  63. Pilate: Why don’t the rest of us just switch to Spanish?
    Seriously, it’ll only take a couple of days for the red states to succeed, and they’d take a lot of Blue Dogs with them. Then we can switch back, level Dumbfuckistan (or whatever they call it) and start hunting Rush Limbaugh with drones. Without him, they’ll be reduced to their natural semi-catatonic torpor.
    We’ll then be able to implement a program of forced abortion and sterilization and within a generation it’d be safe to send normal people in there to repopulate it.
    Or we could pull back and nuke them from orbit. I’m told that’s the only way to be sure.

  64. $600k!

  69. Better American Than You: Who wears a shirt like that, really? And is the normal-looking guy behind Captain America mocking him?

    “Gee Mr. Wilson!”

    The Congressman reminds me of Mr. Wilson

  71. “free Joe Wilson apparel”!! I didn’t even know he was imprisoned!

  77. GreatOldOnesParty: What’s the line on the blonde in that photo being the geography-impaired SC beauty pageant contestant?

  78. dijetlo: You suggestion seems more specifically targeted than my call for a general extermination of Republicans as a class. I defer to your subtle Oriental wisdom. When can we start?

    GreatOldOnesParty: “How priceless is THIS photo!?”

    How priceless, you ask? So priceless, that even an infinite amount of whore-diamonds could not purchase it. “Little girl, do you want some candy?”, indeed.

    BlueStateLibtard: “…and filing papers for the “General Sherman Had The Right Idea” Party.”

    ROTFLMAO!!! That’d send those freaks into full jihadist, suicide bomber mode.

  81. gurukalehuru says at 4:21 am, September 11th, 2009

    Marlowe: But Sumner was a GOOD Republican, and Brooks was a Dixiecrat. If they were alive today, they would have infiltrated each other’s parties.

  82. QueenOfTheDamned says at 7:14 am, September 11th, 2009

    Marlowe: Yes. My American History professor’s description was “He beat him generously about the head and shoulders.” I can think of a few people who might benefit from that treatment.
