Yesterday afternoon, Atlantic’s coolish blogger extroadinaire Matthew Yglesias posted angrily about Mickey Kaus’ insistence on the John Edwards-Hippie affair rumors even though there’s nothing really to them (we think! who knows!) Then, some commenter posted this Wonkettish bit: “Hey, you know what I hear, Mickey Kaus likes to fuck goats,” which led to something of an avalanche of goat-fucking accusations which Kaus has yet do deny. Although people always call Wonkette the filthy blog, MyDD, Kos, Atrios and alla them are having the most fun day ever with this. After the jump, grisly details of Kausgoat-gate from the Yglesias comment board.
- “How can we withhold our compassion for the man in love with a beautiful, horizontally-pupiled young buck who waves his erect tail like a hairy flag in the teeth of a gale of social disapproval?”
- “Now, to be fair, someone should at least do the courtesy of interviewing Mr. Kaus so that he can attempt a plausible denial of goat-blowing and post it on youtube. It’s the right thing to do.”
- “All that may be true, but I don’t see how anything you said casts any doubt at all on the recent scandalous revelations about Mickey Kaus and his penchant for smoking goat cock.”
- “(in the voice of Hans Moleman): I was the goat.”
- “Google search “kaus goats”. 38,000 hits. Just sayin’. Where there’s smoke, there’s fire. Maybe we can get Kaus a date with Mr Tumnus.”
What’s the big deal? We just always assumed he blew goats.

Nobody's goat for Moleman. :(
Has Wonkette jumped the shark?
From Mickey's wiki page:
"Mickey Kaus (born 1951) is an American journalist and author best known for writing Kausfiles, a "mostly political" blog featured on Slate.com, and for habitually blowing goats.[1]"
Well, he has been linked to Ann Coulter. This would explain a lot about both of them when you think of it.
Sweet Jeebus, you blow ONE goat and for the rest of your life, you're Mickey The Goat Blower. Lay off, guys.
How hard up does a goat have to be to fuck that ugly mug?
Wait, there's more to the story.
Kaus has not denied blowing Mexican goats. They mow his lawn, too.
But did the goat affect a wide stance?
I don't remember reading about any goats in airport bathrooms recently.
A confidential source informed me that Kaus blows goats because "if they don't run away, they like it."
This dude has served more livestock than Purina.
Look, we've all made mistakes, blown a goat or two, spent a couple weeks basing meth, turned tricks in Newark Penn Station, woke up with a dead prostitute in our room and wondered where the hell did THAT come from, dated a guy in college and then a couple months later realized we weren't gay, had to have tattoos removed from our genitalia, robbed a gas station or two to support a $4,000 a month coke habit... wait, what was I writing about again? Oh, right, Rudy for President!
See, Santorum was right...first Massachusetts tries to legalize gay marriage and the next thing you know, Mickey Kaus has his dick in a goat
The weird thing is, the goat wouldn't take the $20.
That totally explains why Kaus got a hard on the other day while sifting through a shelf full of mohair sweaters.
Mr. Kaus, let's talk about the future. Will you pledge to never again blow a goat?
@elburrito: Dad?
Exhaustive but unsuccessful attempts were made to reach the goats in Kaus's zip code for comment regarding Kaus's alleged goat fellating. They would not return phone calls or emails or come to the gates of their barnyards.
So basically they have not denied the story.
Epistemology makes me wanna fuck a goat. MAN I LOVE THE WORD. Next up, Ontology!
Who's Mickey Kaus?
High on the hill there's a lonely goatherd...
This is all being taken out of context. The goat in question was very intimidating, and Mickey didn't want to become a statistic.
Hey, Mickey, I don't think that's what they mean by "goat cheese".
@pelosiforpresident:
He is a guy that sucks off Mexican goats.
You can tell the Iowa caucuses are over when alternative energy comes up and nobody starts wanking off over ethanol.
I sure hope Piranha Man makes a few extra bucks from all this publicity. "Blowing Goats" was a *great* album.
(You can listen to perhaps the funniest ever cover of "Viva Las Vegas" at this NPR web page.)
"Vivaaaaaaaaa Las Vegas!"
