Wonkette
- UNEMPLOYED WILL SOON BE THE RICHEST OF ALL! The Senate just passed a procedural motion to bring a bill extending unemployment benefits to a floor vote, finally, after weeks of terrible Republican ACORN amendment obstruction. Just stave off the starvation a little bit longer, welfare queens, because soon enough you’ll be able to eat those fine mink coats that you’ll buy with your unemployment money! The procedural motion passed 97 to 1. Try to guess the asshole before clicking. [CQ]
Lieberman?
Joe Wilson sprang to mind — right state, wrong house. Come on, South Carolina: join the union, again.
I’d swear on a stack of Pampers that it would have been Vitter.
Ol’ Cliff will get to eat food tonight!
It was a toss-up between Corker and Alexander… two good old Tennessee boys who recently fancied themselves voting “no” to an anti-rape bill. My home state can do some surprisingly dumb things sometimes. Thank Jesus, however, neither of those two were the lone holdout.
still trying to figure out why one of ‘em couldn’t do that, oh… say, when the ANTI RAPE BILL was up for discussion.
Damn! I had $40 on “Dr. No” Tom Coburn.
I had an either-or and the or was the one. putz.
Lieberman.
Let’s see: lone asshole… Steve King FTW.
Aww — they got tired of playing politics with the poor and starving? Sissies — if the LORD had wanted them to have money, He would’ve made them your friends.
(Also, I had my money on McConnell — though there were so many suspects).
man i thought it was vitter. there are so many to choose from.
Comments turned off on the next post (the Steele — O’Donnell love-in)? WTF?
Damn! I thought Ron Paul was supposed to be the perpetual lone “no” vote.
I too guessed Lieberman but in retrospect should have known better as Jim would never have referred to him/it using a charitable phrase like “asshole.”
Why does South Carolina hate America?
I guessed correctly. “iPhone”, please.
I am actually overwhelmed by the choices. You really need more exact terms if you want to play this game.
I guess it’s official now. In the heated competition to be named the biggest asshole in the Senate, we have a winner.
V572625694: It’s the desk. The desk called and said enough is enough. I mean THE desk.
DeMint? I guessed Vitter.
couchbound: Let’s keep our Senate “Dr. No” (Coburn) and our House Dr. No (Paul) straight, so to speak.
What has God’s America come to when senators can’t shit in the face of the unemployed? Get ready to celebrate May Day next spring, comrades.
Yay socialism!
He’s from S.C., the same place as this guy.

Monsieur Grumpe: Horry County police don’t often investigate animal sex allegations, spokesman Sgt. Robert Kegler said.
Because the jail just isn’t big enough, I’ll bet.
Well Mister “I am named after a fancy French after-dinner candy”, let’s give all the recently homeless your address, shall we?
Y’all didn’t actually doubt that us horse fuckers would pull through on this one, didya?
I had Vitter instead of the non-gay* SC Senator.
* As far as we know.
Damn, I suck at this game. I thought for sure it woulda been Ensign, since so many of us here are not working, involuntarily…
Monsieur Grumpe: Wow — as they say in South Carolina, Sixteen will get you clop, clop, clop.
S.C is a sorry place.The govenor even had to leave town to get some decent soul pussy.
What is “Tom Coburn”?
No, wait. “John Ensign”?
“Linseed Graham”?
“Jim DeMint”?
Gotta be “Jim DeMint”. What do I win?
The less fortunate get all the breaks!
Jim DeMint — Nailed it! I knew it had to be a GOP Senator from a state with unusually high unemployment…god forbid he should try to help his own constituents.
natteringnabomb: urban dictionary doesn’t even get this one. So does it mean anything like “soul fuck” does?
Good. I guess I don’t have to cancel my manicure. Commenting on Wonkette eight hours a day is hell on my nails.
I assume Jim DeMint would have been willing to pay my rent if the debate had remained open.
A guy was caught fucking a horse, and now he’s a registered sex offender with three years in prison? How much did the horse get?
He should’ve fucked an ass.
I vote “guess the asshole” should be a regular feature on Wonkette.
Double yeah for socialism!! I don’t care if DeMint did vote for it I can still eat my mink coat. Well, okay, I can’t eat, but I can still pay a bill. Not internet, tho, I have to borrow a rich friends just to be here. But I could pay, uhh rent? almost. Yeah socialism!
I got it! I got it! Though Lieberman would not have surprised me.
