pt comment of the day

It is time for the not-really-daily Daily Feature, Wonkette’s Win of the Afternoon. Today’s star comment notes that the Dow Jones Industrial Average has soared an astonishing 62% (sixty-two percent!) since the Kenyan Socialist Barack Obama seized the White House in a violent Saul Alinsky coup that left over 1 billion Americans tragically murdered. Jeez, [...]

Have we given out a Comment of the Day virtual sex trophy today, or this week, or even this spring/summer? NO, what is going on around here? Let’s nominate and award the Win of the Afternoon to beloved commenter CapeClod, for his/her advice to invisible nonentity Tim Pawlenty. Is the “T-Paw” brave enough to take [...]

WIN OF THE AFTERNOON: Is it too early to win the afternoon? Not in Wonkette’s America! Regarding Arizona’s special new immigration law, Wonkette commenter “Hopey don’t play that game” writes: “In other news, Dora the Explorer was detained this morning in Arizona. Apparently that backpack doesn’t contain everything.”

WIN OF THE AFTERNOON: Regarding the House special election in Florida that nobody talked about because it wasn’t a “game changer” because a Republican didn’t win, commenter JMP says: “I hadn’t even heard there was a special election going on today, unlike the hype over certain previous ones; why, it’s almost as if the media [...]

WIN OF THE AFTERNOON: Commenting on this ridiculous news that Palin’s shopping around a crappy AM radio talk show, TeddyS provides a chillingly accurate transcript from the near future.

WIN OF THE AFTERNOON: In the middle of this monster Palin Chaos Theory post, commenter-person Alaska Girl reminds us why Sarah Palin’s latest “I’m gonna take my ball and go home” move is standard Wasilla Snowbilly behavior: “She didn’t finish her term as mayor, stepping down to run for Lt. Governor. She didn’t finish her [...]

WIN OF THE AFTERNOON: We liked this one because it was sciency, and in a post about education, too: “Between the lazy fartsack (larval) stage, and the sneering workaholic (adult) phase, there’s also that stoner, introspective, layabout stage, where the whole of America’s college population pupates.” “dennymcden” is Wonkette’s Weekend Hero for using “pupates” in [...]

THIS IS DISGUSTING AND DOES NOT ENCOURAGE GOOD COMMENTS: But very funny too! From the FREE ABORTIONS thread we have “mpslim,” a male: “Yes!! I’m not even female, but I think I will have something baby shaped removed from my anus in a symbolic gesture honoring the wonder of abortion.”

WIN OF THE AFTERNOON: In some post about something or other, a potential human called “Bill” tapped out a comment so weird and confusing that we cannot figure out if he’s a libtard or a wingnut or what! Of course he thinks Wonkette is a “she,” which is pretty normal for these drive-bys, but he [...]

WIN OF THE AFTERNOON: Wonkette is, above all else, an American Values Blog, and the only American Value that’s not gay is this one: after maniacally firebombing a population, always be sure to airmail a few insufficient aid packages in the general direction of the starving, terrorized refugee masses. That being said, Wonkette will now [...]

WIN OF THE AFTERNOON: In response to this post about bulbous adulterer crybaby Newt Gingrich twit-bitching about Sonia Sotomayor while he was visiting Auschwitz (!) today, Wonkette commenter GuruKalehuru offered this sad assessment of America’s dumbest fad for old people: “This twitter thing is going to be like the new ‘It was the alcohol talking.’ [...]

You know what we haven’t done in a while, due to fatigue or nerves or hangovers or whatever it’s called? A Comment of the Day, that’s what! Let’s do one right now, and honor Mr. or Mrs. NebraskashireGentry for this smart economic advice in response to our tragic 4 a.m. Great Depression II post.
