Foiled Again
What do we have to do to make the NRA enemies list … what do the AARP, the Children’s Defense Fund, and Hadassah have that we don’t? We hate the NRA! We hate gun violence! It isn’t fair! [Addicting Info]
You think you’re pissed? Think of poor Jon Stewart. Neither he nor Colbert made the list, which included such influential celebrities as Tara Lipinski, “Former Olympian” and Moon Zappa. I could see where they might not get the satire of Colbert, but Stewart deserved a spot there right above Sting.
Who actually takes the time to make an enemies list?
Although I have to admit it’s not a bad idea after I made a slightly hysterical comment on Gawker (somewhat to vent my feelings and the other to troll the gun defenders) that attracted way more of the racist gun defenders (and mostly from the usual wingnut crowd) who ranted about blacks as opposed to the non racist ones who merely called me an idiot.
@Mistress Cynica:
I’m sure that the NRA will be more than happy to add Jon Stewart.
@ManchuCandidate: Madame Thérèse Defarge, Nixon, the various Bushbots from the last administration, and other winners.
Who actually takes the time to make an enemies list?
Also on the list … Chaka Khan? Mel Brooks? Belzer? Really?
@Mistress Cynica: right there above Sting Sting on an enemies list is more a placeholder than it is a decision because, well, Sting.
ADD: Should early morning beans cooking on the stove smell like rotting eggs, or do I have rotting eggs?
ADD2: When Fareed Zakaria asks Bill Gates about the importance of improved teachers, it’s funny because it sounds like he’s asking about improving t shirts. Or at least it distracts me from the rotting egg smell and Sting.
@blogenfreude: Hunter Thompson was devastated that he didn’t make Nixon’s lists.
