Snappy Comprehensive Answers To Stupid Questions

Instayokel, who loves branding the Left as “on the other side”, provides an approving venue for this loaded question:

“My question is, why do anti-war liberals get so offended when people question their patriotism, when they spend so much time questioning it themselves?”

We don’t really question it. We just find ostentatious displays of patriotism un-fucking-seemly. Also, being freethinkers, we don’t much go for compulsory recitals of allegiance. We find them — what’s the word? — ahh, servile. Coercively servile.

Rock-bottomed and copper-sheathed, Dan’l, one and indivisible — the Union. Except I hope you’re sitting down because there’s one big thing.

Journalistic Masturbation

Watching this Countdown video of Scott McClellan’s greatest hits makes me wonder why any news organizations would spend precious resources covering the daily White House press gaggle. I mean, you don’t get any useful information from these bastards, and the whole routine seems like an exercise in journalistic (or in Jeff Gannon’s case, literal) masturbation.

 

Crazies With Nukes!

We just have to bomb Iran, possibly with nukes, because its leader is a fundamentalist nutjob who is developing nukes so that he can glassify the Middle East and usher in the Muslim Rapture. Or something.

Basically, the argument goes, the sobering specter of mutually assured destruction (MAD) will not work for a religious nutcase like Ahmadinejad liked it worked on such otherwise rational actors like Stalin and Mao. So we’ll have to pre-empt Iran by nuking them first!

You better think again, Inky, Blinky, and Clyde…

I AM NOT AFRAID OF YOU
By Michelle Malkin · April 19, 2006 08:53 PM

You know who you all are.

And if you think I’m going to stop blogging/writing/making a living because you’ve plastered my family’s private home address, phone numbers, and photos and maps of my neighborhood all over the Internet to further your manufactured outrage and pathetic coddling of a bunch of lying, anti-troops punks at UC Santa Cruz…

…you better think again.

Help Michelle make a living while avoiding the moonbats!

[Code hiked from Francesco Pastore]

Bradrocket adds: Seething, outraged right-wingers should know that when some putz posted Michelle’s number in the comments to one of our threads, we deleted it as soon as we saw it. Seriously, people, that shit is not cool so please don’t do it.

OK, you may now return to playing Ms. Malk-Man, which is the coolest thing ever and deserving of a Nobel Peace Prize in Medicine.

Gavin adds: I do it for science.

Cartoon Jihad

Creature’s Picture Irks Board of Ed Member
BY ICESS FERNANDEZ
The Wichita Eagle

State Board of Education member Connie Morris took exception Wednesday to a picture of a made-up creature that satirizes the state’s new science standards hanging on a Stucky Middle School teacher’s door.

Fellow board member Sue Gamble told The Eagle that Morris asked for the picture to be removed.

The creature, called the Flying Spaghetti Monster, is the creation of Bobby Henderson of Corvallis, Ore. It looks like a clump of spaghetti with two eyes sticking out of the top and two meatballs flanking the eyes.

Henderson created the entity and an accompanying mythology on the origin of mankind to make fun of Kansas’ recent debate over the teaching of criticisms of evolution, including intelligent design.

In November, the board voted 6-4 to allow criticisms of evolution to be taught in Kansas schools.

Where, oh where is the MSM? Is the New York Times simply ignorant of the crisis, or are its editors cringing in cowardly terror? A good question. CNN is not broadcasting the cartoon, and their astounding, reckless trashing of the very principle of free expression is most unsurprising. Over to you, Michelle!

Two-Minute Townhall

Ready. Set. Go.

Shorter Carey Roberts: When I take off my glasses, Katie Couric looks just like Hillary Clinton.

Shorter Walter Williams: Is there a federal deficit? Let’s see here … two plus four … minus five … carry the three … divide by nine … Nope, I guess not.

Shorter Michelle Malkin: Muslims? Genocide’s too good for ’em.

Shorter Tony Blankley: Disloyal retired generals who criticized the Secretary of Defense should be brought up on charges of insubordination, if only to ensure that future Secretaries of Defense don’t require oaths of loyalty.

Shorter John Stossel: Taxes? But I thought this lunch was free!

Shorter Larry Kudlow: Hillary Clinton’s expensive, big-government proposals stand in stark contrast to the president’s lean budgets, and are also very boring.

Shorter Linda Chavez: Perhaps if I debunk a manufactured media crisis about minorities and public schools you won’t lob tomatoes at me for expressing sympathy for illegal immigrants. Whaddya say, guys? Guys?

Shorter Thomas Sowell: Amnesty would soon make illegal immigrants eligible for affirmative action, relegating whites to second-class status. See, as a black man, I can say things like that.

Shorter Herman Cain: Liberal entitlement programs embolden our Mexican enemy.

Shorter Kathleen Parker: The Duke rape case illustrates virtually nothing at all about race, class or gender issues in our society.

Shorter Jonah Goldberg: The difference between a whistleblower and a leaker depends on how effectively folks like me are able to caricature their personality and motives.

Shorter Ben Shapiro: When they ask me what I did in the war, I can point with pride to this column.

Shorter Terence Jeffrey: I have some concerns about the alternative minimum tax.

[Ed. note: Have you ever noticed how much Terrence Jeffrey looks like Martin Prince?]

Shorter Brent Bozell: Heh. If the media love illegal immigrants so much, why don’t they marry them?

Shorter Daniel Son: Here’s a book review I slapped together at the last minute.

 

Is AnnieAngel a Parody Blog?

Annie’s blog bio:

Hi my name is Annie, I’m a 36 year old fitness professional and I love Jesus. Do you? Jesus loves you and He doesn’t want you to burn in Hell. Right now you are damned, unclean, your soul is a filthy rag and your future is doomed. Let Jesus into your heart and you will find eternal life. Drugs are not you. Booze is not you. Gambling is not you. Sexual perversion is not you. Your spirit is you and your spirit belongs to God. Free yourself from the chains of the corruption of the flesh through the flesh and blood of our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ. Amen and Have a Blessed Day!

AnnieAngel on Easter Sunday:

I found a fucking site that stole How To Be A Good Christian Wife!! No credit, no link, nothing!! They put it up like they wrote it!!

This fucking piece of shit is stealing my work!!

Is the New York Law firm out there????

I’m not going to link to the asshole because they are fucking lower than dirt. Asshole doesn’t even fucking speak english!!!! Holy shit!!!!

I’m pissed!

This is a level of cognitive dissonance that I’m frankly too stupid to understand, so I’ll have to ask Annie about it directly.

Annie? Are you for real, or are you just a She-Ruppert?

[UPDATE: Okay, who stole those roses from Annie’s blog!?]

 

What Am I Supposed to be Apologizing for Again?

Me no get:

Just dropped in from QandO to read your apology to Ms. Malkin and the other wingnuts. Expecting integrity from a site that mentions Atrios positively seems a stretch. Sure enough, no apology. Move along, nothing here to see…Yeah, that sure as hell is correct.

Posted by: notherbob2 | April 19, 2006 05:46 PM

Why should we be apologizing to Malkin? I’m seriously baffled.

UPDATE: Ah, now I see. Sebster? Wanna step up to the plate?

Gavin adds: Okay, here’s an apology.

We do not like Sami al-Arian,
We do not like him: not a fan.
We do not like him in Tehran,
We would not, could not, in Kazakhistan.

We do not like him here or there,
We do not like him anywhere,
We do not like him in a boat,
We would not, could not, with a goat.

We do not like him in the rain,
We do not like him on a train,
We do not like him in a box,
We will not like him with a fox.

We do not like him in a house,
We would not, could not, with a mouse.
We do not like Sami al-Arian.
We do not like him,
Spam-I-Am.
