“Joe” the “Plumber”:

I’ll be honest with you. I don’t think journalists should be anywhere allowed war. I mean, you guys report where our troops are at. You report what’s happening day to day. You make a big deal out of it. I think it’s asinine. You know, I liked back in World War I and World War II when you’d go to the theater and you’d see your troops on, you know, the screen and everyone would be real excited and happy for’em. Now everyone’s got an opinion and wants to downer–and down soldiers. You know, American soldiers or Israeli soldiers.

Reminds me of Michelle Bachman.

So: our long national nightmare is almost over. Thus: let us review the Bush administration, year by year. Please add your thoughts and observations. And then, let us never speak of it again.

His inaugural motorcade was pelted with eggs — an indignity that Gilded Age performers endured.  The next day: his very first gag order. Michael Brown came to Washington, a submariner piloted his boat into a Japanese fishing vessel, and a spy plane commander collided with a Chinese air force jet.  None of the three knew what the fuck was going on. The Presidential Daily Briefs sent to Crawford were barely read, and the stem cell “research” speech given from there was sophomoric.

And then: September 11 came. Deer, meet headlights. But most people went right along with everything he wanted, as if the first eight months told them absolutely nothing. Seriously, people — there was more foreshadowing than a Bronte novel.

More whacko PUMAs (sorry SFL):

And all the NFL thread you can handle. Is anybody going to mention my predictions of yesterday?

Title: Guilty: Liberal “Victims” and Their Assault on America

Author: Ann Coulter

Rank: 12

Blurb: “Ann Coulter calls out liberals for always playing the victim — when in fact, as she sees it, they are the victimizers. In GUILTY, Coulter explodes this myth to reveal that when it comes to bullying, no one outdoes the Left.”

Review: “I find the only people that don’t agree with her are people that are divorced or have killed their own babies!”

I did a little research last night, and I believe I have found the prototypical PUMA.  Note the barely-concealed rage, the tendency towards conspiracy theories, and the manner of dress:

As for the playoffs: Winners today will be Baltimore and Arizona. Tomorrow: New York and Pittsburgh. I am either going to be right on the money, or spectacularly awfully deeply wrong.

Schlong-Crazed Gay Bathroom Sex Buccaneer Larry Craig Gives Up Trying to Prove He Doesn't Gobble Schlong Anonymously in Bathrooms

The legendary Republican gay bathroom sex buccaneer, former Idaho Senator Larry Craig, has given up his legal attempts to prove he is not a schlong-gobbling gay bathroom sex buccaneer, much to the disappointment of those enemies of hypocrisy who enjoyed seeing this avowed opponent of legalized same-sex marriage denying over and over again in court that he does not wander around airport men’s rooms begging men to stuff their schlongs into his gaping, eager maw.

The Associated Press reported Thursday that the bathroom sex buccaneer from Idaho had “decided to abandon his effort to overturn his 2007 guilty plea to charges connected with a sex sting in the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport.” Read more »
