World’s Greatest Wonk’d: Bernanke, Novak, Ridge, Thompson, America’s Mayor & Many More!

Friday, April 4th, 2008

Wonkette set me up!A week ago today, we bitterly presented the World’s Worst Wonk’d. The “D.C. celebrity sightings” consisted of George Will buying another fucking book at Borders, and a fireman who had once been on local teevee. We demanded that you people get it together, and you got it together! Huzzah for Wonkette Operatives! This week, Fred Thompson, Robert Mueller, Tom Ridge, Juan Williams, Marion Barry, Ben Bernanke, Ken Mehlman, Robert Novak, Dana Milbank, Mark Warner, and David Frum were all spotted being various degrees of famous at various places by our spies and operatives. The most voyeuristic fun ever in Wonkette’s Five Long Years of History, after the jump. MORE »


World’s Shortest Wonk’d: George Will, Some Fireman

Friday, March 28th, 2008

George Will is watching you masturbate.This week, George Will is sure going to be bummed when Borders shuts down for good, and one of you recognized a fireman or something. You people are not really being very good spies and operatives, are you? We realize nobody cares about anything but Barack Obama these days and all the famous-for-D.C. people are either recuperating at home or out on somebody’s campaign trail, but Jesus Christ, how about a few sightings?

Times Are Tough For Billionaires

Thursday, October 11th, 2007

The poor super-rich. While America’s richest 1% still rule the country, controlling more wealth than the entire bottom 90%, it’s become much harder for them to prove how wealthy they are through ostentatious consumption. Because everyone in America owns two homes and a yacht now, haven’t you heard? George Will has, and his column — filed directly from the Bizarro Planet — urges you, the little guy, to take pity on the plutocracy. MORE »

George Will Warns of Coming Kander & Ebb-scored Nazi Menace

Thursday, August 23rd, 2007

Only George Will can save us from musical theater - WonketteGeorge Will, the original bowtied conservative prick, uses his column today to predict that David Petraeus’ forthcoming report on the state of the Iraq War will lead to something he calls “a Weimar moment.” He refers to Germany between World Wars I and II, when the freewheelin’ liberal democratic government was undermined by the feelings of the people that the nation had been betrayed by their leaders. The Germans knew they were just one Surge away from winning The Great War, and to prove it they elected Hitler to kill all the gays and Jews and win them a second, Greater War. Will is pretty sure this will happen once General Petraeus tells Congress that we are kind of winning in Iraq next month. MORE »


Bag Boys, Ball Boys

Friday, June 8th, 2007

Famous DC types, they’re just like you: they are sweaty, they’re “turds,” they drink Mexican beer, and they do yardwork. In this week’s Wonk’d, David Gregory walks in a circle, George Will bugs the people immediately surrounding him, Steny Hoyer violates the law, Bill Delahunt works on Miller’s farm, Tom Davis hangs out in the sixth borough, some dude from The OC does something or other, and we all continue to laugh at Jim Moran’s name. It’s all after the jump.
