- GOD BLESS POLITICO: While hilarious Palin spokeswoman Meg Stapleton’s “The world is literally her oyster” still probably remains the Political Line Of The Year, this one from today’s Politico is easily top five, or seven: “Few political observers or elected officials doubt that an energized GOP has a headwind at its back.” [TPM]
Better than some tailwind at your head.
Who can tell for whom the headwind blows…
People in glass houses sink sh-sh-ships.
Sometimes you get stabbed in the arm and your leg falls off. What’s the big deal?
And they caaall the wind Scozzafava …
I always knew the GOP had their heads up their asses! Hey-O!
Sarah Palin reeks like rancid oyster.
and an Assclown as it’s head
Most charitable interpretation: she sussed the kind of jokes the librul bloggers would make about Sarah’s tailwind.
But is there a bustle in their hedgerow?
Yes, thats up there with Steele being the cow on the tracks. The GOP is three balls to the wind, they have the steam in their sails, its full wind ahead, they have pulled out all the shuttlecocks, boldly they are marching, forward, into the past, and endlessly twirling, twirling, also.
predilectrix: oh maybe I wasn’t clear in the post. It’s not a stapleton quote, it’s politico writing. I was just comparing to other legendary quotes of the year.
I for one do not wish to see the oyster of either Meg Stapleton nor of Sarah Palin.
Ah, but those few are wicked wracked with it. Painful to behold. GOP 2010 theme: “Break like the Wind”.
Its an ill wind that doesn’t blow someone good. See, if they were gonna say it correctly, they should say “blow someone well.”
“The GOP stepped out into a beautiful new day, breathing deeply the bracing tailwind in its face.”
Also, tailwind = farting.
Jim Newell: no, you were clear…I just jumped too fast because of the headwind at my tail.
The POLITICO is literally WINNING THE EARLY EVENING with windy oysters.
Did Politico just tell us to blow it out our asses?
The wind is literally from her oyster.
comicbookguy: Thank you for that image, please pass the brain bleach.
Sarah Palin’s oyster… /shudder.
Come here a minute: A “windy oyster” is literally like a “breezy clam”, only louder.
The GOP has always been where wings take dream.
Clearly, then, the GOP must break wind.
Congrats, Jim, you just scooped The New Yorker on this week’s “Block That Metaphor.”
brogonzo:
Also, headwind = blowjob
I’m sure it’s a MIGHTY Wind!
They are write good what with the words and all. Also.
This is butt the latest in a string of flatuently inaccurate articles by POLITICO.
“And a small mind shall lead them.”
This movement stems from the very fiber of our nation, crop dusting the proverbial mustard seeds up and down our town halls. Can you smell that, America? It’s the tailwind of change. Moo baby moo!
Jim Newell: Say what you mean, mean what you say.
“Idiot wind, blowing every time you move your mouth,
Blowing down the backroads headin’ south.
Idiot wind, blowing every time you move your teeth,
You’re an idiot, babe.
It’s a wonder that you still know how to breathe.”
Some power bottoms fuck us all.
“The world is literally her oyster”–Actually, she thinks it’s her clam.
shadowMark: Do what you say, say what you mean. One thing leads to another.

Reminds me of this entry into one of Mary Ann Madden’s old New York magazine weekly contests, in which readers were asked to invent a title for a bad country-western song:
“Walk Out Backwards So I’ll Think Yer Comin’ In.”
The dead fish, and that fishy smell, they go with that tailwind too?
Don’t dwell on rumblings coming from the bowels of Congress. Just give this Republican movement time to work its way through the system.
It just occurred to me that if they have a headwind at their backs, then Limbaugh’s frequent references to “bend over and grab your ankles so they can shove it down your throats” makes much more sense, physiologically speaking.
Keep that tailwind away from open flames, GOP.
Check out what Sen. Diaper Dave twatted earlier today:
“Met with FDA today to make case for LA oysters - will keep pushing to protect these LA jobs and our ability to enjoy raw Gulf oysters.”
Sarah Palin’s oyster is literally a gulf that’s raw from all the pushing.
Extemporanus: Sarah is NOT a bivalve, she’s a heterovalve!
magic titty:
Megan smells the wind that comes from far away
Megan waits for news in a quiet place
She feels the presence of the wind beside(around)her
She feels the power of the past behind her
She has the knowledge of the wind to guide her…on.
David Byrne: Modern Nostradamus
Extemporanus: I guess he likes vibrios too!
Praise Jesus! You just can’t make shit like that up!
Oh where to start. More breaking news wind from politico or how about a clam wind from alaska or stealing a 34 year old line from National Lampoon, Sarah Palin is not a pussy fart, but rather unwanted air expelled from the vagina of Alaska.
It’s a Freudian slip that perfectly describes the current state of the Repugnants - a bunch of delusional self-appointed captains, each conflicting another on sails and heading. Small wonder why they’re in irons.
Kinda reminds me of this line:
We must sail as fast as we can without our sail.
-Eric Idle as Commander Clement in Yellowbeard
Prommie: And there’s already too much of that going on in THAT trailer park.
Extemporanus: I would like to see Vitter and Palin posing together in those t-shirts every third person in NO wears: “Shuck Me, Suck Me, Eat Me Raw!”
Mr Blifil: Voilà coozan!
Okay, barely relevant, but the intro to the Nov.5 dailey show included a great Foley reference that has some bearing on this matter, someplace or other:

Oh, hell. No one’s said it, yet: QUEEF!
Munths endin’ en Arrrrrrgh!!1! are gud fur öisturs…NAWT!
Excelsior!
PrairiePossum: Technically, the headwind is the hooker’s gentle puff to get the dust off the helmet before beginning to polish it. Or, you know how amateurs blow into a microphone a few times to see if its working? Same idea before she (or he - after all, this is Wonkette) says a few words to the folks…
