DAVE WEIGEL IS THE NEW RICHARD COHEN! Washington’s most knowledgeable blog reporter of wingnuts, Dave Weigel, has been hired by the Washington Post to blog-report about wingnuts — presumably just the ones outside of Washington Post headquarters. Congratulations to him! Big money! He must have carefully omitted “former Wonkette guest editor” from his resume… [Michael [...]
This article is basically great. Because naked penis/vag shower run-ins, it seems, are the norm! More normal than apple pie or baseball or Cleveland Steamers: “The private gyms are sanctuaries where lawmakers can huff, puff and disrobe knowing that only fellow members will see them.” Giggle!
Last week, the Washington Post published a front-page photo of two (gay?) men kissing in the courthouse’s “gay marriage line.” Many readers were furious. Today, Washington Post ombudsman Andrew Alexander determines once and for all whether this gay kiss ever even happened.
Hey, look at this! The Department of Education “has been conducting a ‘Program Review’ of Kaplan University’s main offices in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., since September. The Post business desk seemed not to notice any of this, but Post investors might want to.” Kaplan is the college loan-shark/test prep death company that makes all of the [...]
Historic Washington Cocktail Party Host Goddess Sally Quinn, the first columnist in Washington Post history to be fired for writing bad columns, has been spending some of her free time on the Twitter machine after finally busting it out of husband Ben Bradlee’s locked scotch cabinet and refilling its gas tank.
UHH… END OF AN ERA? LET’S GO WITH “END OF AN ERA”: Good heavens, the rumors of usurpation have been confirmed! A man “Broccoli” is eliminating the Washington Post‘s most important writing this side of Dana Priest: “The Washington Post has decided to no longer run Sally Quinn’s ‘The Party’ column in the print edition [...]
WICKED PENNILESS CHILDREN CONSIDER SILENCING DINNER PARTY HOST SALLY QUINN: Certain vulgarians at the Washington Post who call themselves “executives” are allegedly considering — brace yourself, America! — eliminating Dame Sally Quinn’s weekly column about her personal life, and the social functions she may or may not attend. Apparently it’s been very shitty recently. [Washington [...]
BREAKING: Wacky old Sally Quinn has two weddings to attend on the same day, due to an inadvertent scheduling problem, and may only be able to attend one. [Washington Post]
The recent very serious edition of the Washington Post tackled the question of Retards: what of this word, “retard”? Are there perhaps pros and cons to the word “retard,” and can we divide the competing arguments into two page-filling columns, from “retard” experts? What can the art department gin up for a “retard” debate?
LATEST SOCIOPATHIC WAR-LOVING DEATH MONSTER GETS WEEKLY WASHINGTON POST COLUMN: The only “big name” missing from today’s sunny Washington Post op-ed roster, regrettably, was occasional contributor Marc Thiessen, a former Bush speechwriter (just like Gerson, hey-o!) who absolutely loves torturing minorities, calling the president a traitor, and composing one of the most demented paragraphs your [...]
Look, one of those rare humans who procured a print copy of today’s Washington Post noticed that evil war and death corporation Lockheed Martin purchased a creepy full-page, full-color “In Memoriam” ad to “honor” dead Jack Murtha, replete with company logo! And slogan! Right there!
Friday is a special day at the beloved Washington Post opinion center: the day when you, the reader, are most likely to look at the front-page teasers on washingtonpost.com and burst into hysterical laughter, without clicking on any of them. The rotation just works out this way!
KATHLEEN PARKER’S NEIGHBOR WILL SHOVEL YOUR SNOW: Don’t worry! The latest snowfall did not disrupt Kathleen Parker’s scheduled Washington Post column today. PHEW. It is about how men, like her USA Today columnist neighbor, enjoy shoveling snow for fun, while women only shovel snow because they have to. Similarly: men have penises, while ladies just [...]
