Wonkette
- HILL OPERATIVES, WE NEED YOU: Much as we’d love to visit the Super Bowl of Retardation this afternoon, we are somewhat low on regular staff these days (have you noticed?) and someone must be “at the desk.” Operatives, this is your time to shine! Tips@wonkette.com! Send photos of Rand Paul breaking into your boss’s office! And if you send e-mails like, “I can see the west lawn of the Capitol from my window, and the entire lawn is full of tea partiers,” maybe attach a photograph.
Tea partiers were in Boston in the 1700’s. Tea baggers are currently having rallies.
Is “at the desk” what they’re calling the Appalachian Trail these days?
Superbowl of Retardation ftw.
Yay, Jim’s back. How was Lieberdouche’s office? And how’d you make bail so quickly?
Jim’s alive! Rescued from his imprisonment inside a giant Code Pink puppet or from the cooking-pot of hungry Teabaggers/PUMAs!
Please, you roll into “work” at 1PM and expect us to send you shit to write about? NO HANDOUTS FOR LAZY LIBRULS.
Oh come on Jim, you do the work of ten regular Wonkette editors!
Put Waggaman on that beat. What’s a roving reporter got better to do today than cover this?
So, did Ken get lost in his Hike Up America’s Backside?
The “Super Bowl of Retardation” is code for the GOP “Health Plan”, I assume?
My parents are currently storming the capital. I only have a gleeful tweet from my mom about peasants storming paris and a texted pic from my dad of a few lily-white splotches on the capital front lawn.
Ru Paul is breaking into Capitol Hill orifices!?!
This I must see — where’s the video?
Terry: Yeah, if that “tea partiers” e-mail example was real, it was NOT from a wonketteer.
Here’s the first photo of Michele on the west lawn hitting it with her fans.
JadedDIssonance: When the mob stormed the Bastille, all they found were a few old crazies…
I’m just sayin’…
JadedDIssonance: So are your parents the Jacobins or the aristocrats being brought by chaise to view the revolution?
Is “at the desk” better than “on the desk” or “under the desk?”
Wonkette doesn’t have an office - but still has a desk? Is that a table at Starbuck’s?
Chain Tattoo: Great Jeebus, I’d PAY good ameros to see that.
“I can see the west lawn of the Capitol from my window, and the entire lawn is full of tea partiers,”
That must be 2.5 million teabaggers!
Jim, I need that bail money back by Monday. You like yer kneecaps, right, Jim?
JadedDIssonance: My deepest sympathiez.
C’mon Federal Workers.
DO YOUR JOBS. WHAT DO YOU THINK WE ARE PAYING YOUR SALARIES FOR?????!!!
We want pictures.
Sheesh.
When the 9/12′ers needed picutres of a ton of people standing around in DC they just ran a photo from a few years before.
If it’s good enough for them, why isn’t it good enough for us?
That’s the New Media. Guy drives over a broken bottle in upstate New York and screams that his car has been vandalized. Want to make fun of our President? Go on Faux Noise and create a story about him staying at home watching a movie about himself.
Facts? Who needs stickin’ facts?
Spin to Win! Losing an election is a great victory - T-ballitics. Just make it up and run with it.
Surely FOX is reporting 18 million teabaggers have taken over the mall.
Here’s the speakers schedule. Exciting huh?

Politico’s photographer needs to clean his lens or something.
Wow, I just looked out the window, and the crowd is HUGE!
Monsieur Grumpe: John Voight, John Ratzenberger (Cliff from Cheers — who, surprisingly, was free today) and Betsy McCaughey — an illustrious and fact-free lineup if ever there was one. Who, after hearing these yokels speak and then enduring a rousing version of God Bless America, would not be persuaded that Blue Cross Blue Shield deserves every penny it gets?
Some douche was up there talking about the “hundreds of thousands” on 9/12.
At any rate I left them a little something to remember me by.

Well as long as we’re just making shit up, http://img.alibaba.com/photo/50140355/Wing_Nuts.jpg
If Jim is in DC, who is that under my desk?
I noticed that the Mojave Desert correspondent missed the space elevator competition. Book deal my ass — think of your fans, Pope Cat.
Is there going to be a ridiculously over-hyped half-game show? ‘Cause it just wouldn’t be a Super Bowl without a ridiculously over-hyped half-game show.
Come here a minute: http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20091105/ap_on_sc/us_space_elevator_11
Min: Well, there will probably be some wardrobe malfunctions. Close enough?
If they want attention and we want images, how about someone sending a 20 foot silver mylar balloon with something dangling from below over the Capitol?
Come here a minute:
“Earlier out on the lakebed, team member Nick Burrows had pointed out how it grips the cable with modified skateboard wheels and the laser is aimed with an X Box game controller.”
Now they have space elevators run by X box controllers, what’s next?
