THE EXTERNALITIES OF WALNUTS!

McCain Loss Killed Numerous Boners On Election Night

It was a tough night for Rich LowryDid any of you evil men impregnate a lady on election night? Then you probably voted for Barack Obama! (It’s a real “win-win” situation, too, because this would mean you, the liberal, were able to make the lady get an abortion — and not take care of some baby!)

Some cabal of pop scientists reveal: “(Oct. 21) — Young men who voted for John McCain lost more than a presidential election last November. A study says their testosterone level plummeted.” Oh ho ho! “Men who voted for Obama maintained stable testosterone levels, while men who voted for McCain saw those levels drop more than 25 percent.” Oh man, testosterone! It’s crazy!

    Externalities. Priceless dorky econ joke.

  2. hockeymom says at 2:43 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    How did they even DO this study?

  3. V572625694 says at 2:44 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    It was disappointing to find that their field observations were based on saliva testing rather than actual field observations. “Pop scientists” indeed.

  4. Advocatus_Diaboli says at 2:44 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    It’s not about WALNUTS; those Bible Spice voters lost their testosterone into a tube sock.

  5. vladster says at 2:46 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    Another Bush recession

  6. SayItWithWookies says at 2:46 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    No big deal for the McCain voters — most of them were able to kick a puppy and get their levels back up in a few minutes.

  7. I’ll have the testosteroni with walnut cream sauce, please.

  8. AbstinenceOnly Ed says at 2:47 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    Bullshit. The Duggars conceived six kids that week alone!

  9. Cassawary says at 2:48 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    Control group please. What were the McCain voters’ levels before the election? Exactly.

  10. The last line’s good, but judging by current polls probably inaccurate:

    “Republican men can take comfort in the fact that the testosterone drop was only temporary, and that the midterm elections are coming.”

  11. IF only McCain had allowed the Snowbilly to address all of America’s Boners during his concession speech ceremonies this study would have turned out much more mavericky.

  12. ChernobylSoup v2 says at 2:50 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    No correlating study on estrogen levels among women voters? Misogynist scientists conducted this study. Remove tenure and take away departmental funding NOW. This is NOT funny!

  13. Aflac Shrugged says at 2:50 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    I had a testosterone drop as a result of meeting Meghan McCain. Actually, it was more of a testosterone dump.

  14. ManchuCandidate says at 2:50 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    Under Obamacare, that problem might be treated for “free.” Hint: Little Blue Pill

    Look at that, McCain voters again voting against their own self interest.

  15. magic titty says at 2:51 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    hockeymom: They just guessed a result and published it. (i.e. the same way most studies are conducted.)

  16. Extemporanus says at 2:52 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    So, help me out here: After the election, they were at like, what, -23%?

    Math is hard (even if they’re not.)

  17. Extemporanus says at 2:54 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    Aflac Shrugged: So messy!

  18. Georgia Burning says at 2:58 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    Young men who voted for McCain lost testosterone. Another mechanism to facilitate average human intelligence increasing with each generation.

  19. freakishlystrong says at 2:58 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    Young men who voted for John McCain. Did Erick and Johah ever have measurable testosterone?

  20. slappypaddy says at 2:58 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    it was african voodoo, pure and simple.

  21. shadowMark says at 3:00 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    It’s 2009. Lionel Richie is only famous for being Nicole Richie’s father. Hint, hint.

  22. vladster says at 3:03 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    Yeah, they all cut their dicks off.

  23. germansteel says at 3:04 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    They were only - at best - FIVE AND A HALF INCHES, ALAN!!!!

  24. in all seriousness (is that allowed here?) i would expect republicans to have 25% more testosterone in the first place. that’s what makes them homosexual, chauvinistic warmongers

  25. CrunchyKnee says at 3:10 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    Think of all those birth certificates carried around in plastic bags we avoided!

  26. hockeymom:

    By walking up to guys and asking them for samples. Works best in bars about 2am.

  27. hobospacejunkie says at 3:11 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    Most McCain supporters were men who subscribe to the Tucker Max school of masculinity: they talk a great game but never get any. They also find Liz Cheney attractive. I don’t even want to think about what that means.

  28. Schmannity says at 3:13 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    It’s Cindy’s icy stare.

  29. Country Club Jihadi says at 3:14 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    On election night, someone text messaged me a photoshopped picture of Sarah Palin with a giant black dick in her mouth. At the time I was horrified, but now it all makes sense.

  30. ChernobylSoup v2 says at 3:14 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    germansteel: Well done.

  31. charlesdegoal says at 3:14 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    But, as it says here, mid-term erections are cumming.

  32. winning = more testosterone isn’t news

    http://psycnet.apa.org/?fa=main.doiLanding&uid=1993-28643-001

    In 2 experiments, a total of 129 male college students (aged 18–50 yrs) either won or lost $5 on a task controlled by chance. In both studies, winners reported a more positive mood change than did losers and, in Exp 2, winners reported a more positive mood change than a neutral group that did not win or lose money. After the task was completed, winners exhibited significantly higher testosterone (TES) levels than losers.

  33. problemwithcaring says at 3:22 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    hockeymom: Dixie cups and dirty mags?

  34. Suds McKenzie says at 3:23 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    Maybe they were all just watching the election results in an outdoor bath tub.

  35. shadowMark says at 3:23 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    hobospacejunkie: It’s 2009. Is anybody getting anything?

  36. Spots Unknown says at 3:28 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    this story hurts my walnuts.

  37. PlanetWingnuta says at 3:29 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    TODAY WE ARE ALL BONER LESS REPUBLICANS WHO BEAT OUR WIVES ON ELECTION NITE.

    …this explains skoalrebel’s youtube video…

  38. queeraselvis v 2.0 says at 3:30 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    If these McCain voters in this study would’ve just eaten a bag of dicks as instructed, perhaps we would have seen a rise in the results.

  39. Extemporanus says at 3:33 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    Suds McKenzie: Unlike you, who apparently watched the results at home on the couch.

    Are you sure you’re not a Boxer?

  40. Scary. If McCain had won, there’d be no Baby K. Smith. Thanks Barack!

  41. PlanetWingnuta says at 3:37 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    does this mean that all the McCain voting Wimmen had the collective Cindy McCain Migrane headache?

    hi Cyndi if you’re looking….and yes everything is funny wonketee!

  42. hobospacejunkie says at 3:39 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    Country Club Jihadi: Link please! You can’t just casually toss that out & forget about it.

  43. Schmegeg says at 3:46 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    This sounds like a job for Rick Santorum!

  44. shadowMark says at 3:46 pm, October 22nd, 2009
  45. Accordion-o-rama says at 3:47 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    hockeymom: At GOP election night parties, everyone gets a rectal probe. After that, it’s just an exercise in data-mining.

  46. Lionel Hutz Esq. says at 3:51 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    Advocatus_Diaboli: I thought it was because they all thought they had lost Palin for their fantasy about the bat-shit crazy girlfriend who destroys everything but, boy, you like to hate-fuck her.

    Little did they know, once unleashed on the American People, craziness like that doesn’t go away.

  47. snideinplainsight says at 3:54 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    What if they had an election and no one… Oh, never mind.

  48. EdFlinstone says at 3:56 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    Teabaggers—We want our country, errr boners back!!!

  49. thefrontpage says at 3:58 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    I was hanging out with Meghan McCain, Jenna Bush, Caroline Kennedy, Gore’s daughters, Chelsea Clinton and Tricia Nixon at the Hooter’s on Rockville Pike on election night. When Hooter’s closed, everyone went over to the Shriver mansion, and we partied there until like 5 a.m. There was a lot of going rogue going on.

  50. mardam422 says at 3:59 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    So there was no need to force abortions for all non Obama boner babies after all. Who knew?

  51. Ducksworthy says at 4:01 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    Mostly they were exhausted by November from 2 months of jacking off to pictures of the hockeymom.

  52. Can O Whoopass says at 4:04 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    Worked out for Dave Letterman - He got Willow Palin pregnant!

  53. trondant says at 4:07 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    EdFlinstone: Now that you mention it, the teabaggers at the townhalls seemed just as upset as an old when he discovers that the rubber-band trick isn’t working anymore.

  54. southerngeek says at 4:10 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    I knocked up my wife shortly after the election. SCIENCE!

  55. W Hackwhacker says at 4:24 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    Is this what’s known as “Blue” balls?

  56. Country Club Jihadi says at 4:25 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    hobospacejunkie: I can’t work the link thingy, but Google “Palin blowjob” in images and it shows up on the first page. It’s disturbing.

  57. vladster says at 4:31 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    They shot the wad while McCain was waving a .45 around during that (a)rousing nomination speech.

  58. Right, Lindsey Graham has a testosterone problem because McCain lost. What other explanation could there be?

  59. Toomush Infermashun says at 4:36 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    Cassawary: I don’t care…Winnn!

  60. EdgarAllanPoo says at 4:47 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    I suppose the results would have been similar for Democrats after Bush won. So what have we learned? Nothing. And what have we not learned? Who paid for this study? Just a lot of bullspit.

  61. Numbat Dundee says at 5:02 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    Nows the chance. Outbreed them! Demography rules!

  62. disgustedcitizen says at 5:13 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    What a load of crap! I voted for Obama and haven’t had a decent boner in six months. Doesn’t matter who you vote for, old age is a bitch.

  63. hockey[re=441805]MattW: It doesn’t say liberals would have suffered the same fate if McCain had won. I tend to believe there would have been a lot of liberal anger banging if that had been the case. It’s one of the few areas of human interaction where overt aggression is occasionally encouraged.
    Also, the dates are wrong. Lil’ Trucknutz wasn’t born nine months ago, also

  64. Larry McAwful says at 5:24 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    Bill Frist should run for president in 2012 so he can use the slogan, “If the results of this election last for four years, call a doctor!” Then he would proceed to lose every state with a literacy rate over 30%, so he’d get most of the South, plus Idaho, and not much else.

  65. Oldskool says at 5:37 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    All the bitterness probably aged them ten years.

  66. hockeymom says at 5:37 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    This just in! From one Levi Johnston’s Twitter site

    “Men who voted 4 McCain saw significant drop on testosterone l LEVEL http://is.gd/4wpWo pussies !”

  67. Mr Blifil says at 5:44 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    It is to be presumed men who voted for McCain merely sported a tuft of pubic hair along with some sort of benign, though possibly precancerous growth, down there. They couldn’t have had much testosterone to start with, the sad little dickless wonders.

  68. How the hell did that happen? Anyway, here’s the study for reelz: http://www.plosone.org/article/info%3Adoi%2F10.1371%2Fjournal.pone.0007543

  69. imissopus says at 6:28 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    My uncle has a great-nephew who was born last Election Day whose parents named him Maverick. Does this mean his parents might as well lay in a supply of Barbara Streisand albums and perfectly pressed Dockers now?

  70. Jim89048 says at 6:46 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    Country Club Jihadi: That wasn’t shooped.

  71. Jukesgrrl says at 7:29 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    “Who’s going to pay for insuring all those babies conceived because of Obama? They were born fat and they expect to stay fat with liberal breastmilk, Medicare, and Cadillacs. There can be NO FREE LUNCH for fat babies with their gout, their high cholesterol, and their baldness!” — Sen. Mary Landrieu

  72. Zack Morris says at 10:12 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    I thought it was kinda weird when I got a ballot, a cup, and a copy of Juggs magazine.

  73. Alpha O. Mega says at 10:36 pm, October 22nd, 2009

    Obama was born (either in Kenya or Hawaii) almost exactly 9 months after JFK’s election night. So the cycle continues.

  74. MonaLisa65 says at 1:57 pm, October 23rd, 2009

    joe2: In general: No, that is not a state condoned or endorsed by Wonkette. In the future, please refrain from interjecting non-snarkishness into the record. (In other words, if you insist on posting comments like, f’rinstance, pampl’s, you’ll likely receive multiple bags of lightly salted appendages in your ‘inbox’.

    Don’t say you weren’t warned.

    However, since your serious statement has also managed to elicit a chuckle from yours truly, I’m going to move to allow this particular instance of seriousness to stand. All opposed?

  75. I don’t know about you all, but I had crazy redonculous election sex with the ex until about 2am election night. No Obama-babies though. Dang protection.

  76. Dolmance says at 11:24 am, October 25th, 2009

    This certainly does explain how they became the “Party of Bitches.”
