Whatever the [...]
Popular E.B. White periodical The New Yorker has a lengthy profile on our future president, popular New Yorker and teevee personality Mike Huckabee. Our Man from Hope opens up about Jews and gays and elitists, among other New Yorker readers, so certainly he would say nothing those groups would object to, right?
NEW YORKER STAFFERS QUITE FAMILIAR WITH EXCLUSIVE NEIGHBORHOOD OF MARK SANFORD’S MISTRESS: Sparkin’ Sanford’s Buenos Aires’ pied-à-terre is in a rather lovely area where the better people congregate. “The well-kept doorman buildings feature underground parking garages and balconies.

Keeping accord with weekly tradition, Wonkette channeled its insomnia at 4:30 a.m. this Monday morning to a week-old version of the New Yorker magazine, online, so as to scan for a “politics article.” There was a Ben Bernanke profile, which is EXACTLY what we asked our parents to get us for Christmas, at Best Buy.

Ha ha, here is the latest New Yorker cover, which proves Sarah Palin is an idiot. Tina Fey should get royalties. Speaking of New Yorkers, did you people know you can get your picture taken with Palin and some fake dead thing? [New Yorker]
Here is the new New Yorker cover of Entertainment Weekly featuring your two pretend satire boyfriends, Colbert and Stewart. Is this one of their many jokes, this offensive SMUT? DON’T THEY KNOW THAT THE STUPIDS WON’T UNDERSTAND THE JOKE? Blah blah blah. [Entertainment Weekly]
Oh why looky here! Wonkette’s own Josh “Comics Curmudgeon” Fruhlinger is getting more famous by the day, and today’s proof is an exclusive Q&A in the elitist New Yorker‘s decadent Cartoon Lounge, which is a blog for furries and cartoon fetishists.
