Wonkette
It is Hell-o-ween come early, children. Gather ’round, for Dame Peggington Noonington, chief word-writer for the notable Wall Street Journal banking pamphlet, hath composed a Second Weekly Article, doubleth her normal output. She worketh harder than most humans. It is her Duty and she shall performeth it, in times of national crisis, such as it was Friday. That was when disastrous monster Barack Obama accepted his Nobel Peace Prize, from the communists! Peggington heard this news item on her radio machine, Ate nine pills, and typed — for Madame was furious at this, “this wicked and ignorant award, this mischievous honor.”
Before this year’s award. The Nobel Prize. What was it? I will check the encyclopaedia to answer this question, about this thing. What was it before it was the Devil’s Medal, which it is now?
It was a good thing, the Nobel Peace Prize. Every year the giving of it was a matter of note throughout the world, almost a matter of state. It was serious.
It was a recognition of magnificence. It was known to children. Did it ever go to a Mexican? One time, I saw a Mexican. Did that Mexican ever win it? I saw God in that Mexican. What race was Mother Teresa? Perhaps black. It is unknown. God knows this answer. God knows these things.
It mattered that it was given to a woman like Mother Teresa in 1979. She had lived for 30 years with the poorest of the poor; she and her Missionaries of Charity dressed their wounds, healed their illnesses, and literally carried them from the streets to mats and beds in a home where they would at least have in death the thing they had not had in life, someone to care for them. She didn’t just care for them, she did the hard thing: She loved them. Her life was heroic, epic, and when she was given the Nobel Peace Prize, it was as if the world were saying, “You are the best we have. You are living a life that should be emulated.”
You are a human. Among humans you are perhaps the best. At least Top Five. No, nevermindeth that. Best Human of All Time. Is Barack Obama this human in To-day’s globe? And who took my pants? I was wearing pants, earlier. Ronald Reagan. I used to work for that Human. He never won this thing.
It was always absurd that Ronald Reagan, whose political project led to the end of the gulag and the fall of the Berlin Wall, and who gambled his personal standing in the world for a system that would protect the common man from annihilation in a nuclear missile attack, could not win it. But nobody wept over it, and for one reason: because everyone, every sentient adult who cared to know about such things, knew that the Nobel Peace Prize is, when awarded to a political figure, a great and prestigious award given by liberals to liberals. NCNA–no conservatives need apply. This is the way of the world, and so what? Life isn’t for prizes.
And yet, I write this article, in a fit. I am so furious. You cannot tell because you cannot view me. But I am furious right now about this thing.
What I will do now is release the reins. I will now go insane. I will go insane about the Internet and use the youth word, “nah.” I will give you pleasure.
America hasn’t just helped the world, it literally lit the world with its inventions, which are the product of its freedoms. The lights under which the Peace Prize judges read, and rejected, the worthy nominations? Why, those lights were invented by an American. The emails the committee members sent to each other, sharing their banal insights on leadership? They came through the Internet. Who invented the Internet? It was a Norwegian bureaucrat with a long face and hair on his nose and little plastic geometric eyeglasses? Oh wait, it was Americans. The members of the Norwegian Nobel Committee are healthy because they have been inoculated against diseases such as polio. Who invented the polio vaccine, an enfeebled old leftist academic in Oslo? Nah, it was a man named Jonas Salk. He was an American.

Correction:
“Who invented the Internet? It was a Norwegian bureaucrat with a long face and hair on his nose and little plastic geometric eyeglasses? Oh wait, it was
AmericansAl Gore.”And he won his little award.
Nah, it was a man named Jonas Salk.
Nah?!? Fruity Peggles actually wrote “nah” in an article? Wow. She really is tripping.
“This is an award for not being George W. Bush.”
Which validates their choice instantaneously, Pegs.
Suck on that for a while.
al gore invented the internet.
Ah, yes, Henry Kissinger, noted liberal.
I expected her to write about how Obama slipped the surly bonds of earth to touch the face of Odin.
Doth Dame Noonington also pine for the days when Yasser Arafat could win a Nobel Peace Prize?
There is also a sudden and severe shortage on the Upper East Side of both Tanqueray and Vicodin.
No Peg, it did not go to Reagan for trying to protect mankind from annilihation, it went to a Mayan peasant woman Rigoberta Menchu for pointing out to the world that her family and roughly 200,000 other Guatemalans were being annilihated in a Reagan-backed scorched earth genocide.
Truly a travesty, those Scandinavians snubbing such a man of peace.
I am Dame Peggington-Shiva
bringer of bad breath
ill winds
and day old flatulence.
Please take my tiny thoughts
and tie them together
in tangled webs
of beige sadness.
From hope
tis a downward slope
to this gentle slough
of despond.
It was always absurd that Ronald Reagan, whose political project led to the end of the gulag and the fall of the Berlin Wall, and who gambled his personal standing in the world for a system that would protect the common man from annihilation in a nuclear missile attack, could not win it.
Yes, and Raygun did it by arming us to the teeth, not to mention posturing and outright threatening to blow the entire world to fucking smithereens 25 times over in the name of “securing peace.” And when he wasn’t doing that, he was helping engineer a homosexual genocide by completely ignoring the burgeoning AIDS epidemic. But I’m sure in spite of these two little things, Ronnie dearest was totally deserving of the NPP.
Shutteth thee fuck up, Milady
And who discovered America? Fat ignorant Americans? Nah! Norwegians (or their kin).
AnnieGetYourFun: He and Yasser Arafat dropped avid together at the Burning Man together every year.
Several corrections, Ms. Noonan
“Why, those lights were invented by an American.”
Actually, Tesla, while a naturalized citizen, was originally Serbian. The man who ripped him off, however, was American.
“They came through the Internet. Who invented the Internet? … Oh wait, it was Americans.”
Only partially. The world wide web, which most people today think of when we hear “the internet”, came from systems developed at CERN, on the Swiss-French border.
It was a Norwegian bureaucrat with a long face and hair on his nose and little plastic geometric eyeglasses?
On behalf of my brother Svend, my mother Gunnhild and my uncle Bjørn, I wish to protest this racist stereotype of Norwegians by dumb mick Peggery Noonan. Instead of attacking Scandinavians, she should try to do something about her own ethnic disease, and get herself to an A.A. meeting.
Perhapseth the best Peggington Nooningtonshire yet? For so doth I thinkit.

Shorter version:
America: fuck yeah!
How about an unapologetic address, a speech, with the world’s elites leaning forward and listening, about the meaning of America? A speech that shows a grounded and sophisticated love for his country and its great traditions and history. Not a nationalistic speech, not a prideful one, but a loving one.
Peggy, darling — President Obama has given such speeches. You just missed them because they weren’t nationalistic and prideful saber-rattling threatlists of everyone Dubya and Cheney thought needed their ass kicked. Which kinda disproves your point entirely, now that I think of it.
If you haven’t read the first hand reports on her Harvard “study group” you should, they are fucking hilarious(over at Gawker). My favorite quote;
“After about an hour with the woman, I’m happy to report that she seemed incredibly inebriated, and seldom more than a little coherent.”
She should be surrounded by velvet ropes, for she surely is a national treasure.
Suds McKenzie:
Drunk old ladies are a hoot.
Wait, she’s going on a diatribe about all the awesome things Americans have done in rebuttal to the Nobel Prize people giving an award to … an American? SO CONFUSED.
“Who invented the Internet? It was a Norwegian bureaucrat with a long face and hair on his nose and little plastic geometric eyeglasses? Oh wait, it was Americans.”
The internet, born of sheer individualist ingenuity, rational thought, muscle, sinew, sweat, tears, virtue, God, and the conservative American.
Or it was born of a Government Bureaucracy. Whatever.
So, I was having a hard time following the logic, so I want and read the article in whole to get full context. Now I’m confused, have a headache and a vague notion I should go take a dump, but that it will hurt when I do. It’s like a frat party without Dave Matthews and blow.
“Life isn’t for prizes.” Goddamned poetical.
and who gambled his personal standing in the world for a system that would protect the common man from annihilation in a nuclear missile attack, could not win it
Wow. Are those Peggy’s antidepressants, dissolving into the Lockheed Martin Kool-Aid?
All SDI ensured was that any surviving aerospace lobbyists would have more liquid assets than the other cockroaches who inherited the earth after the blinding white flash.
PabaBritannica: Everyone knows who invented the internet. It’s the same guy who invented global warming.
Josh Fruhlinger: Um, duh. Kenyan.
Remember that episode of Hey Dude where Danny bet that other kid (Jake?) that he couldn’t go a week without things that came from Native Americans?
Peggy should do that, to the Norwegians.
That other kid learned a lot that episode.
“It mattered that it was given to a man like Henry Kissinger in 1973. He had lived for five years with Richard Milhouse Nixon, the ethically poorest of the poor; he had poured Nixon’s drinks, laughed at his jokes, and literally prayed on his knees with him, and had accompanied him to a house called San Clemente where Nixon would at least have in resignation the thing he had not had in Washington D.C.: a moment without being tape recorded. Kissinger didn’t just care for Nixon, he did the hard thing: he basically sucked Nixon’s cock. Kissinger’s life was heroic, epic, and when he was given the Nobel Peace Prize, it was as if the world were saying, ‘You are the best we have. You are living a life that should be emulated.’ Yes, as if.”
And who can possibly forget Gnrulggn, back in his cave in pre-historic AMERICA, inventing fire?

So, she is so mad at the Norwegians for not being American enough and for giving their filthy euro-award to… an American?
queeraselvis v 2.0: you left out international drug dealing for guns.
I have NEVER wanted to hit a person over the head with a frying pan more than I do our lovely, frosty “Madame de ___” over here. Well, actually, I’d like to give noted meaningless-award recipient and liberal torturee Aung San Suu Kyi the frying pan and tell HER to hit Madame de ___ over the head with it. But she’s too peacenik-y to do that, so I’d just end up doing it myself anyway while Aung San Suu Kyi cried her Commie liberal crocodile tears and begged me to forgive Madame de ___ all her many wrongs and live in peace with her. But I won’t because even though I’m a liberal Commie pinko who gives awards to all my friends every hour of the day on Twitter and Facebook and The Internet, I refuse to forgive anyone who actually believes that Ronald Reagan should have been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize.
good thing she doesn’t have to blow into a tube before she hits the keyboard. or maybe she does.
hey, did we murkans invent the breathalyzer, too? fuck it, i’m not gonna look it up, i’m jess gonna say, you betcha we did. them nobel persons just oughtta give all the awards to us as a group, for now and evermore and be done with it. don’t mean nothin’ no more nohow, now that they’re givin it to the uppity one. who i would follow to the gates of hell.
So Lady Noonington basically says the europeans are ungrateful elitists who we have helped with lights and internet, then laments that America is misunderstood in the world, fucking brilliant.
Let me just say…..I Love this blog. Peggy Noontard is so absurd, never liked how she talks and definitely not impressed with her pretentious attitude!
Josh Fruhlinger: This was my exact thought. And the PRESIDENT of the Americans, no less. Someone should perhaps be regulating Peggy’s Valium and Fox News intake.
Chris Christie would hit Peggy … with a bottle of Tabasco. She’d be his Nobel Piece Prize.
Oh, my, she is bitter!
She failed to mention the prize was awarded to Henry Kissinger and Menachem Begin. Perhaps because that would blow that nonsense about the prize never going to a conservative out of the water. Also that nonsense about it having been a universally respected award until now.
Also, I’m getting a little sick of all the columnists who are trying to say what Barry should say in his acceptance speech. He can say whatever he damned well pleases.
queeraselvis v 2.0: And arming us to the teeth at such expense that the national debt and deficit both soared in his time in office. The Soviets tried to keep up financially and could not, and that’s partly why the USSR collapsed.
Not to mention fighting the crack epidemic by continuing the war on drugs, cutting funding for mental health institutions to the point where thousands of crazy people were made homeless and dumped on the street…oh yeah, Ronnie was a saint.
mocowbell:
Who said
poetry’s dead?

Pegs could have strengthened her case by pointing out that Reagan envisioned a world united in the face of an outer space alien invasion.
We did almost “light up the world” with those nuke-ular weapons.
“This is an award for not being George W. Bush. This is an award for not making the world nervous.”
Gee, Pegs- you make this sound like a BAD thing! I think Barry should get an award every single day for the rest of his life for not being GWB. We want to encourage that kind of behavior.
Tommmcatt: Yeah. I kinda thot that was the point: anyone who is not George W. Bush. Thanks, Mr. President, for not being George W. Effing Bush!!!
So if this is an award for NOT being Bush, does that mean Ms Peggington thought he was just as bad as the rest of the world thinks he was?
Was Salk a Norwegian leftist? No, but he was a son of Russian Jewish immigrant/New Yorker/Pittsburgher/Californian academic. That’s pretty much an American leftist perfecta.
Go read Noor Sobhan’s comment posted today on Peg’s rant. Oh. My. God.
Reagan gambled his personal standing? What, was he afraid he’d make them forget Bedtime for Bonzo?
Josh Fruhlinger: Just what I was thinking. Goodeth Godeth Peggeth, they gave the fucking thing to an American already! Whazzamatter, wrongeth coloreth?
Josh Fruhlinger: In other words, paraphrasing Noonington, why did you Norweigian foreigners give the NPP to a foreigner? Why not an American? Look at everything we’ve done for you people.
Sigh. I only hope the wingnuts will all die from hypertension, popped blood vessels, and heart attacks in three and a half years.
imissopus: But, but… Just Say No! Wait, that didn’t work?
imissopus: Fuck Reagan. He couldn’t even get assassinated right.
Fine! Peggy can get one of the incredible wealthy Republicans to start the Ronald Reagan Prize which each year will be awarded to someone who best exemplifies the abilities to talk about a subject of which they are completely ignorant, to ignore all past historical and scientific evidence concerning that topic, and to propose a solution that will upset the majority of people, while taking their tax money and giving it to a private corporation.
Recipients should talk grandly about America being God’s special country, Americans being infallible and always right, and nothing resembling progress in social areas can be allowed.
“NCNA–no conservatives need apply” (apply?!) — Oh for cryin’ out loud. Look, cons, DO SOMETHING that maybe has some vague connection to PEACE in the first place, or even gain a basic understanding of what it MEANS, before whining about everybody being MEAN to you so you guys never get that stupid Nobel Peace Prize, which by the way is just so devalued and what did Obama ever do to deserve it and besides which, who wants that dumb ol’ meaningless prize ANYWAY!!
Sounds like Pegs ran out of Vicoden and Jameson’s this weekend.
gurukalehuru: “Also, I’m getting a little sick of all the columnists who are trying to say what Barry should say in his acceptance speech. He can say whatever he damned well pleases.”
Yes indeedy. It feels just a wee bit racist-y condescending. As if, for example, Bush didn’t NEED anyone’s help composing the acceptance speech for HIS Nobel Peace Pri— oh yeah wait.
Jim, how did you get the Wall Street Journal Stock Picking Pamphlet to publish your parody as though it were actually written by Dame Peggington?
Nooner-or-Sooner thinks Mother Teresa was a liberal because she might have actually cared for the destitute, unlike any right-winger she can think of. Understandable, I guess, but MT was a neanderthalic anti-choice dim wit, never connecting prolific populating with deplorable economic plights. It figures that Pegworth would have her silk panties all in a twist over her Presznit crush - Reagan - being upstaged again.
You know, the thing of it is… “Nobel laureate” - it does sound pretty elite. He’s trying to be elitist here again, right?
I’m sorry, but the whole tirade at the end about how great America is? I don’t get it. Obama is American, so, ok, Norway loves Americans too. Or it did, till Nooners made fun of their eyeglasses.
and Europeans - aren’t all of them elite? Especially the Norwegians? Ron Reagan never tried to be elite.
Well I know someone who just got crossed off Garrison Keillor’s Christmas card list…
All I take away from this screed is that she needs to get laid, badly.
Let’s see… Saint Ronnie, encouraged and condoned right wing death squads in El Salvador to wantonly murder innocents? Check. Illegally funded a right wings terror operation to overthrow a legitimate and democratically elected government? Check. Supplied arms to both sides of the Iran/Iraq war? Check. abetted Israeli war and suppression of Palestinian peoples including documented war crimes? Check. Suborned the subversion the Constitution? Check. Made a joke about starting a unprovoked and preemptive nuclear war? Check.
Yes indeedy, there’s a Nobel Prize winning resume if ever I saw one.
MarSF: Add the proviso, “in the ground” just before “badly” and I’m right there with ya buddy.
Let’s see. Ronald Reagan was President in 1986. And, in 1986, Halley’s Comet returned to our part of the solar system. So, Reagan must have done that, when he wasn’t personally sledgehammering the Berlin Wall and making the Politburo choose Gorbachev for First Secretary of the CPCC. Yeah, that’s it! That’s exactly what happened. How could we forget?
And his greatest triumph, getting rid of the Fairness Doctrine in broadcasting, allowed Rush Limbaugh and Bill O’Reilly and Glenn Beck to have lucrative careers spreading important wisdom to all those poor, ignorant bastards that used to have to rely on slobbering lunatics such as Walter Cronkite for their so-called news.
Alaska Girl: On the bright side, he liked Jelly Beans.
MzNicky: To be fair of Ms. Nooningtons, telling Barry what he should say or do is pretty much what pundits do. Same with political reporters. And bloggers. And people who write snarky comments on blogs- basically, a whole bunch of people who’ve never run nor been elected President, especially a President with a funny name.
That being said, I think that for his speech, he should bring out a life-size cardboard cut out of Dick Cheney with him and at the end of the speech, piss on it.
Maybe Regan shouldn’t have launched his ‘80 campaign in Philadelphia, how ’bout that? It’s not very peacey to celebrate a lynching — even if it is of people who were black.
user-of-owls: Now, now…….my “Death Panel” Short List does not include Peggetha. Besides, I love it when Newell writes about her - half the reason I visit Wonkette. That and the Blingee contests.
I’m most confused by her comment about “geometric eyeglasses”. I assume this refers to the shape of the glasses? But ALL shapes are geometric.
Unless Dame Noonington prefers some kind of trigonometric glasses that I was not aware of.
“Nelson Mandela was unjustly imprisoned for 27 years, and he came out without bitterness. There’s a hero for you….He lived a life of moral and political struggle, broke the old chains that had bound South Africa. At the end he was a literal inspiration to the world.”
Bitch, your boss’s cronies called Mandela a terrorist. Swiss-cheese-for-brains de facto support of the South African regime is credited with keeping Mandela in jail (without trial) until that Beacon of Senility left office for the funny ranch.
Also, is “literal inspiration” what you get after a VodkaVico?
Hooray For Anything: Well then!: Barry X should include in his acceptance speech that he’s donating the prize money to ACORN. Thus explodeth the rest of the wingnut heads, Game Over, WE WIN 4-EVER!
The Noonington doth loseth her mind, what with the hairy nose comment. From whence does that remark cometh? The Peggingdale must worketh or liveth with someone cursed with a furry probiscus. Nah, it’s tranference from her own face in the mirror.
We could have an ongoing game, “Is it Noonan or Newell?”
This week’s test:
“I wasn’t sure I could stay awake all day. This is one of the major stresses of life - making sure you can stay awake all day. I happen to think sleep is one of the most important things in life. Trying to wake up, trying to fall asleep. I don’t know why I’m talking about this.”
(For the answer, see the Gawker post on Peg Nunacy.)
“America hasn’t just helped the world, it literally lit the world with its inventions, which are the product of its freedoms.”
Wait a sec. I know we lit up a lot of people with freedom, but did we invent incendiary bombs?
Did someone replace Peggy’s Percocets with OxyContin because she’s making even less sense that usual. Ronald Reagan should’ve won a Peace prize? A random tangent about American inventions being awesome…and somehow, therefore, the prize shouldn’t be awarded to the American President? What does that whole bit even mean?
Oh and Jim, well done, sir. The Peggington hath been most thoroughly mocked.
Godot: Thank you! I was wondering that, too. Mostly because I am a nerd.
Whaaa…
The Saint of Peace, Ronald Wilson Reagan (666)never got a Nobel?
President Obama won the Nobel Peace Prize, “. . . for not being [Peggy Noonan or anyone remotely like her].”
Remember, younglings, Barry Dunham just isn’t American ENOUGH. That’s the key to understanding the Reagandroids.
PabaBritannica: Now look at it.
Dame Peggy should saunter her saggy ass on over to /b/ . Then we’ll see if she still wants our country to take credit for the Internet.
Oh, it’s soon, now.
If Peggy Noonan ever got her head out of the ass of the rotting carcass of Ronald Reagan, stepped in front of an audience of Germans and said that Ronald Reagan was the reason why communism and the Berlin wall fell, they’d bury her alive in tchotchkes created out of bits of that darn wall.
Can O Whoopass: Ronny was nominated for the Nobel for recalling where his catheter had fallen. Pees in our time.
“It was always absurd that Ronald Reagan, whose political project led to the end of the gulag and the fall of the Berlin Wall, and when Glasnost and Peristroika where just funny-sounding foreign words made-up by Post-Marxist, Post-Christian Eastern Europeans, Ukes and Russians.”
“She who quaffeths a fifth B&B and chokeths down a fistful of Ludes and forgets the lessons of history is condemned to quaffeth a fifth B&B and choketh down a fistful of Ludes on a daily basis.” Miguel de Santayana, Mexican.

GreatOldOnesParty: this site is one of the most entertaining and funniest things I have ever seen….even more stupid than move on .org which is really strange. Apparently you people on the left are not too bright (considering your social level, that is not too surprising)….you actually think that Pelosi, Reid, Schumer, Biden, Obama, Dodd, Bayh, Boxer, Snowe, ….I could list more, are beneficial to this country. They are destroying everything thst this country was founded on but that is what you desire…..take from those that produce and give to those who sit on their asses and accomplish nothing….great way to run a society…worked real well in the Soviet union, East Germany, and the other Socialist empires…….oh wait a second….they are out of here, sorry…

Wait until she hears that the Pope has beatified Obama. He has already performed two miracles; first by getting elected being a black man, and the second in saving the world from certain destruction wrought by the previous eight years. All he needs is one more miracle. If Peggy votes for him, he will become a Saint.

Tommmcatt: Took Nooners long enough to suss that one out.
I remain convinced that Jimmy Carter’s award (2002) and Al Gore’s were for “you’re not GW Bush” as much as any accomplishments of their own. Carter, of course, was a well-deserving shortlist candidate for a while, but the timing was intended as a slap.
What hasn’t broken through Peggington’s Ambien haze, however, is that GWB isn’t the only leader the Nobel committee has cocked its snoot at in recent memory.
terycarl: “this site is one of the most entertaining and funniest things I have ever seen… really strange… bright … social … you actually think….I could list more…. beneficial to this country…. what you desire… out of here, sorry…”
Glad you appreciate the discussion, terycarl! Don’t leave!
terycarl: Yes, you’ve got that exactly right, because when we make fun of a silly, drunken, confused twat like Peggy Noonan, it means precisely that we think E. Germany and the Soviet Union were heaven on earth, and Nancy Pelosi is the 2nd Coming Jesus!
You (like Peggy) have unassailable logic!
Lawrence O’Donnell has a great response to the talking point that Norway should be more grateful to America: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jfFx2X38YqU (His comment starts at the 2:30 mark)

Gah! Peggy you stupid fucking cunt.
Has anyone checked raygun’s grave? Surely it has been robbed by Peggy. Or at least it’s missing his wrinkled, shriveled dick, which Pegs keeps in her mouth permanently. I’d like to take a big swing at you, Sarge/Peggy.
terycarl: Stick around fucktard. Be brave & try this on during the day. If you can get your mom’s mouth off your cock long enough.
terycarl: Are you back again? You still think you have an opinion worth posting too, don’t ya? Some people are just really amazingly dense. (sigh)
Jimmy Carter should have co-won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1978 for helping facilitate the peace treaty between Egypt and Israel. Which is no way means Anwar Sadat and Menachem Begin should not have won it that year. Just wanted to throw that in.
eastcoastliberal: Because of my “social level” (vis a vis terycarl), I don’t really understand Noor’s genetic argument: “Americans share a common DNA from an Anglo-Saxon farmer in England, whose name was Americus. Therefore, when America approaches the world, it needs to understand that it is so unique, that it has nothing in common with the rest of the world.”
Right, Pegster! Barry’s going to look to you for speechwriting advice, just like James Garfield did. Tired, pretentious old cunts should be seen and not- no, not even that.
Someone ought to tell Dame Peggy that there are hundreds of thousands of brown saintly types in the Indian subcontinent who’ve done more for the progress of the poor, the sick, the aged, the destitute, for women, and for children than that holier-than-thou Albanian nun ever did. They don’t get the same press because its just booooring to watch a brown take care of another brown. The brown saintly types also don’t get to fly First Class to pay visits to despotic Catholic dictators the world over, and unlike the saintly Albanian nun they don’t have a well-oiled PR machine, courtesy of the Vatican and that old gas bag Malcolm Muggeridge. Of course, the likes of Dame Peggy get their panties wet when they see a wrinkled old bag like themselves administer to the white (wo)man’s burden, but, frankly, I can’t see how making a dying Bengali woman on the streets of Calcutta (now Kolkata) say “I accept Christ” seconds before she drops dead from begatting her 7th child makes the world any better.
If “No Conservatives Need Apply”, how did Mother Theresa win the damn thing in the first place (1979)? How much more conservative can you get than a Catholic nun who opposed birth control? What about Menachem Begin, who really was a right-wing Zionist terrorist in his early career (1978)? What about Lech Walesa (1983), or F.W. de Klerk (1993) or David Trimble (1998), who are all conservative politicians?
Oh wait. Peggy Noonan is a fucktard.
PabaBritannica: And also, Tim Berners-Lee who invented the world wide web, which most kids think of as the Internet is British.
JSDC007: I love the intelligence level on this site……re-read this post and actually decide whether or not you are this low on the intelligence level……..basically this is second grade name calling, very impressive for a political discussion. The problem I have with liberals is that when they cannot defend their positions (which is quite often) they resort to name calling….a pathetic attempt to appear as though they know what the hell is going on……..And the language…….the previous few posts were almost intolerable in their filthy language…..does this site not have a moderator?????guessing….probably not garbage accepts garbage……pathetic
Without Wonkette, and her enlightened commenters, I would have no alternative but to go insane. Oh, wait…
HAHAHAHA! (not)
I believe that mixed in with the second grade name calling there are several defenses of positions here. For example- user of owls 4:03, queeraselvis 4:05, Imissopus 4:34, Mznicky 5:14, alaskagirl 6:18, problemwithcaring 7:27, unlearnedhand 10:55
You just don’t happen to agree with them, so you can’t see them for what they are.
Perhaps second grade name calling is what has kept us all sane during the reign of that genius gentleman GWB, and continues to comfort us with people like Beck and O’Reilly and Hannity in the media.
Just sayin’
