Nothing makes for a better “media event” than six straight hours of long back-and-forths about wonky health care reform particulars, in the middle of the day. No really, it’s great! But Matt Drudge is upset. We thank him for this screen grab of WALNUTS!, who probably has the shits. TWO HOURS ALREADY, JESUS. Anyway, they’re breaking for lunch in a minute, and after that we might hold a bit of liveblogging. What happened earlier?
TPM tells us that OBAMA SMACKS DOWN ALEXANDER, whoa now!
“It’s not factually accurate.”
FUCKING SMACK-A-LACK, BITCH. OBAMA FUCKING NEUTERS LAMAR ALEXANDER IN HIS FUCKING FACE.
We’d remember more, but CNN keeps cutting away for commercial at all of the important parts. Wolf Blitzer, good god.
The cable news analysis of this, later tonight, will be poor.

not enough cursing.
This is like telling a Viking that lightning doesn’t actually come from Thor’s hammer. While that may be correct, it has no bearing on the Viking’s raping and pillaging, so he doesn’t really care.
Yeah, that’s stickin’ it to ‘im good, Barry! Smack!
Now, a real smackdown would have been: “You’re a poopy-pants, Senator!”
We need furries and teabaggers STAT.
The whole event is a figment of John McCain’s imagination due to the introduction of powerful hallucinogens in his daily rations by his North Vietnamese captors (think the ladies’ tea party in the original Manchurian Candidate).
Oh lord, it’s Walnuts. So funny to see Mr. Budweiser try to give a shit about the little man.
We’re Americans, we need some explosions or girls in bikinis fighting to hold our attention. Thank you.
P.S. I would love to watch this with audio but Renegade by Styx just came on the jukebox, so you’re shit outta luck for the next 4:21.
Grandpa Simpson is using his time to be sure we’ve herd every single talking point again. It tooks a helluva lot of repetition to get him to remember these, and by god he’s gonna use ‘em!
OOH, Hopey Smackdown!
Shit, Barry just totally smacked Walnuts down…’the election is over’. HAHAHAHAHA!
He shoulda said “Lamar, your well-known indulgence in the furry lifestyle has evidently made it difficult for you to keep up with the facts. Next time you’re romping around in a Sexy Fox suit, remember that you’re wasting valuable time that could be devoted to studying issues of great importance to our country.”
Jesus, Lamar Alexander looks like they just dug up his crypt this morning and he’s still getting his bearings.
They kept saying lunch was coming! Now we have sebelius talking about some shit.
P.P.S. Did they use the song Renegade in the TV series of the same name, starring the delightful talents of Lorenzo Lamas?
Only the Senate GOP, being populated by the wussiest of wusses, would feel intimidated by our President Urkel.
This actually is kind of boring, and I’m one of those people who enjoys these things. What it needs, I feel, is more of that rapid back-and-forth action, a la Britain’s House of Commons. Maybe a few people could interject “here! here!” and the opposition could be heard moaning groaning and muttering unintelligibly from time to time.
“OBAMA FUCKING NEUTERS LAMAR ALEXANDER IN HIS FUCKING FACE.”
Are you calling Lemur a dick face?
[re=519721]RoscoePColtraine[/re]: RABBLE RABBLE RABBLE
[re=519721]RoscoePColtraine[/re]: Agreed. Needs more boos, catcalls, and barely audible snippets from the overhead mikes involving the word “Douchebag.”
When do you think Republicans will realize that not all Presidents are as retarded as Bush was? Until they do, I’ll enjoy the good television it creates.
Not enough gay sex to keep Drudge’s attention.
[re=519718]Jim Newell[/re]: Nickname: “the lunch lady”.
I can’t watch the proceedings, but given Drudge’s history, if he claims it’s boring that means it’s probably the most exciting thing ever. Needs more sirens, also.
[re=519700]SayItWithWookies[/re]: Or like telling Drudge that he’s not really a journalist; except replace raping and pillaging with inane rumor mongering.
Thank God Their Is NO PODIUM !!1
90 minutes with explosions, or it’s unfit for American consumption.
Does anybody else think Eric Cantor looks like a televangelist?
Who’s this whiny little twerpy Cantor guy? His voice is almost as annoying as Fat Al Gore’s. And why does he have a body double hovering around behind him?
When do they get to the DEFF PANELZ? I wanna know what poor, oxygen- and resource-wasting bastard is first on the chopping block.
[re=519726]queeraselvis v 2.0[/re]: And more Southern morons yelling “YEW LAAHHH!”
READ THE BILL!!! READ THE BILL!!!
Oh shit, he actually read it? Um.
[re=519718]Jim Newell[/re]: You know WALNUTS! get’s cranky if his tuna on wheat isn’t served by 12:15p.
Matt Drudge was a question/answer on Jeopardy! yesterday, and the contestant got it right. I think that in the interest of fairness and balance Alex Trebek should give a shout out to Wonkette on today’s show. Also, Kelly from the “Clue Crew” should show us her hoohaa.
What would have satisfied Drudge?
[Obama's smack-down of Alexander]: “Anyone who thinks what you just said is true is a know-nothing fucktard.”
This would have struck just the right note, with the ensuing fireworks and all.
[re=519702]freakishlystrong[/re]: [re=519714]Chain Tattoo[/re]: This exclusive photo from last month’s RNC Furry Pool Party makes it pretty clear why the Republicans don’t have their health care reform homework done.
Too much yiffing off.
(By the way, that’s Foxy “Lamer” Alexander rubbing the Beaver on the far left.)
“The cable news analysis of this, later tonight, will be poor.”
I love it when you make predictions like this, Newell. You’re some kind of always-right psychic genius.
and where’s the damned teleprompter???
Did Obummer bring his Alinskyite tellahPROMPTAR? After all, without it, he just ends up reciting either the Koran or Materialism and Empirio-criticism.
[re=519750]bhosp[/re]: Well, the analysis will be reflective of its grounds: CSPAN 3 on mute. People look bored, Obama is stern, and that bill looks really big.
[re=519704]norbizness[/re]: [re=519710]FlownOver[/re]: Hey, cut WALNUTS some slack.
I’d like to see you drag your ancient ass to a boring-as-fuck crack-o’-dawn meeting while suffering from a wicked carrot cake & cum hangover.
Look at Obama in that picture. His body language is saying, “Jesus Christ, who voted for these clowns?”
Joe Biden, you rule.
Can you imagine GWB trying to participate in this sort of meeting?
I haven’t watched any of this world-shattering event. Is Lamar Alexander wearing his plaid shirt? Did he drive over to the WH in his pick-up truck? Or was that that other “Never quite good enough to be called a has-been” Tennessee sack o’ shit, Fred Thompson?
I think I see the purpose of this meeting, to the extent that you’re willing to indulge such generosity. The only time Obama looks good is when compared to the ossifying, decrepit, clueless opposition party. Any other time, he goes into a Rahm-cocoon and only emerges to compare criminal bankers to baseball players.
[re=519753]SmutBoffin[/re]: Curiously, I just got done writing about Lenin’s concept of science in precisely that text. I would up agreeing with Althusser, FWIW.
Now, switch to Politico for a moment and compare the comments. Which side reads good?
This would be better with dance numbers and sequined tights.
Mike Pence is a serious whiny baby!
Republicans may have their doctors in line, but are they packing a sassy, pissed off granny?
McCain is currently thinking “I can’t believe I slept with that whore at Lieberman’s party. How will I ever convince Cindy she must have gotten herpes from a toilet seat for a fifth time?”
The Drudge headline is an insightful analysis of the Republican argument against comprehensive healthcare reform: “tl;dr”.
[re=519739]MzNicky[/re]: He is the rising star of the fucktard party – and he LOVES Britney Spears, for her music. Every time he talks, I swear to jebus I can smell Brylcreem!
Lamar you ignorant slut…

Limbaugh says Obama “doesn’t have a clever or supple enough mind” to address health care issues from a new angle.
Feb. 25, 2010
****
Rush, are you saying that because Barry’s using his Negro dialect?
CNN declares Repubs brought a strong team, unlike Barry, and came to play. Bite me.
[re=519742]MzNicky[/re]:
For reals! Where in sam hell is Joe Wilkes Booth Wilson when you actually need him?
[re=519765]Tommmcatt[/re]:
Yes, I agree, but it wouldn’t be pretty.
[re=519759]Terry[/re]: I can imagine him shaking hands for ten minutes and then leaving for a vacation. Wait a minute, he did exactly that!
Why didn’t they invite Bachmann?
And, let’s face it, Drudge hasn’t been excited about much since his favorite fluffer, Breitbart moved on to young men like James O’Keefe.
[re=519706]Scarab[/re]: Women in bikinis shoving tnt up Drudge’s ass and blowing him up would get my attention.
“Smackdown”? Whoopee. Get a hold of me when Obama “Skull Fucks” someone.
[re=519731]Come here a minute[/re]: [re=519718]Jim Newell[/re]: If lunch isn’t a human service, I don’t know what is. Besides, “secretary” Sebelius is a chick so it’s her job to feed the men while they do the important work.
Hussein must have written down talking points on his hand, yeah that’s it.
This wasn’t quite as fun as a few months ago when the Repubs were just repeating “OBJECT OBJECT OBJECT” just by talking about the damn issues.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ewafPV2brQA
[re=519781]Monsieur Grumpe[/re]:
Nothing with John McCain in it ever is.
[re=519774]S.Luggo[/re]: Rush is just mad because he can’t find a Dominican boy that’s clever and supple enough to … ugh…. and I just threw up a little.
[re=519764]ForTheTurnstiles[/re]: The philosophy of science is all good and well, but Lenin and Althusser never had to deal with the editors at Physical Review.
I watch this and get the impression that while Obama actually has a much more important, much more demanding job, he’s the only one who actually read the fucking CBO report, and didn’t just ask some RNC intern to come up with zingy one-liners to use as talking points.
[re=519774]S.Luggo[/re]: I wish the Repubs had brought Rushbo to this so he could “ax” the president some questions and Obama could smack the shit out of that fat fuck. Then gut him, stuff an apple in his mouth, and serve him for lunch.
[re=519738]StripesAndPlaids[/re]: Nah, Cantor looks more like a Yeshiva bucher, mit chutzpah dripping out his toches, und he has no guilt because he cares
only about the gelt, and he constantly whines oy gevalt, them Dems are chazzers, while he sucks der putzim of der goyim alla time.
In other words, he acts like a televangelist, he just don’t look like one.
Anybody don’t like what I said? Sue me.
[re=519726]queeraselvis v 2.0[/re]: Clearly, we do not have enough drunken Scots in our Congress. In fact, I think things would go a lot more smoothly, as well as making better TeeVee if every congresscritter were required to knock back 3 pints and a few shots of whatever’s handy while watching Braveheart and/or Trainspotting before each days business could commence.
[re=519810]Katydid[/re]: Funny, you don’t LOOK Jewish…
why do i find Cantor so repulsive? Wasn’t he the kid that always sat in the front row with his hand up for every question? yeah, that was him. the little prick!
[re=519798]SmutBoffin[/re]: Yes, that’s right. Which is a point made later by P. Anderson in Debates in English Marxism, re: Popper &c.
How would the editors of any peer-reviewed journal in the physical sciences deal with teh Birthers, though? Althusser would just choke the bitches, like he did with his wife.
[re=519739]MzNicky[/re]: You mean Dixie Jew? The ranks up there with Palin and Joementum for having the whiniest voice. I just hate that prick. At least Spooky Doktor Tom and James “Look I’m crazy” Inhofe don’t whine.
why do they insist on using battle metaphors all the time, invoking physical violence at every turn?
this is a bunch of dudes in suits sitting in a big spacious room. that’s the farthest thing from a smack down i’ve ever seen.
[re=519810]Katydid[/re]: Putz.
[re=519827]proudgrampa[/re]: LOL!
I am devastated. My President Hopey just answered a question yelled out to him and used “hopefully” incorrectly.
Or maybe . . . it was a subtle using of “hopefully we can get something done this afternoon” tp mean that we will be discussing Health Care Reform with uniformly hopeful attitudes. But it’s tough thing to promise, that all the Republics will sound hopeful.
Hey–any unemployed English majors out there want to jump in on this one?
[re=519844]DustBowlBlues[/re]: unemployed English major? you mean, you’re a blogger?
So the right wing nutz have spent about a year yelling that Mr. Obama broke his promise to televise all the health care debates and now that he’s getting it on tv (although I guess most of it was on CSpan the whole time but the R.W.Nz. are consistently factually challenged) The Sludge Retort sez it’s too boring?
Be careful what you wish for!
of course Drudge says he’s bored: Obama and the democrats look like leaders who know what they’re talking about, and the republicans just keep singing the theme song to the hit 90s sitcom Step by Step. you wouldn’t expect him to actually encourage his “readers” to watch an event like that, would you?
now, if john mccain went off in a rage and forcefully skull fucked nancy pelosi, well I am pretty sure he’d call that one a GOP win.
Shit. Drudge is so bored, MSNBC put on a hockey game to keep him entertained. That bastard has some serious power.
Hopey forgiven for misusing (if he did) hopefully because he used queue, my favorite word ever since it appeared on my spelling test in fifth grade.
Movies in black and white are boring, also. Just looking at that snapshot puts me to sleep. Why couldn’t they have made any good movies before they invented color, Matt?
Obviously, Obie had to SMACK HIM DOWN. When encountering a force the like of LAMAR! anything less than forceful striking will be rebuffed.
#teamlamar
“Boring” is Republican speak for “we would rather there not be video documentation of the proceedings.” I don’t recall any of them being bored during the Lewinsky hearings…
[re=519929]Mr Blifil[/re]: Health care debate needs more blow jobs.
Not enough penises wriggling in excrement. Also.
Back to school gennelmens.
I could have sworn I saw Matt Drudge masturbating yesterday when I walked by his apsrtment.
[re=520479]new complexnegro[/re]:
Mmmmm, prolly not. You need “genitalia” to masturbate. Phantom itching is most probable.
