For Harriet Miers:
YOUTH: Are you a virgin?
MANDY: I beg your pardon!
YOUTH: Well, if it’s not a personal question, are you a virgin?
MANDY: ‘If it’s not a personal question’? How much more personal can you get? Now, piss off!
That is all.
Congratulations to The Editors, who’re getting hitched this weekend. Kaye Grogan is no doubt heartbroken.
In honor of his impending matrimony, I hired a bunch of fucked-up cats to sing him a song. Enjoy!
“Goin’ to the chapel and we’re…”
“…gonna see some fucked up kittens!”

Because the Sox made the playoffs and I hate you all, here’s a bit o’ the latest from the leprechaun-haunted Michael Gaynor.
Despicable demagogue Democrats deem it politic to insinuate or even insist that President Bush is a racist. They did it during the 2000 and 2004 elections and after Hurricane Katrina. And they pretend that people like Condoleeza Rice and Colin Powell, blacks whom President Bush chose as his Secretaries of State, somehow are not really black or self-respecting persons.
In order to address some troubling stylesheet issues that affected the archives, we’ve had to junk our old stylesheet and start from scratch. No good deed goes unpunished, so let the complaints roll in. Things that remain to be done:
For items 4 and 5 in particular, any help would be much appreciated.
The Management
Update: Problems 4 and 5 and an unlisted problem 6 fixed thanks to Auguste from Malkin(s)Watch.
“Hey boss, how come I don’t get to be on the Supreme Court?”
“You’re too politically controversial, Elian…I mean Alberto. …’Speedy.’ Too centrist-looking. Sorry, Speedy.”
“¡Ya chingue!”
“Announcing… (announcing…) Harriet Miers… (harriet miers…) as the nominee (…ominee) for Supreme Court Justice (…ustice).”
WorldNetDaily: Aaaaah!
Malkin:Gaaaaah!
Powerline: Oy-yoy-yoy-yoy!

Not that Miers is anything but a hack (see the illuminating link above on her name), but are we about to see old George’s polls plummet past 38%? There’s a fresh bag of Pop Secret in the pantry calling one’s name with buttery alacrity…
True story. I was laying in bed last night reading the Boston Sunday Globe when I came across an editorial on Intelligent Design written by the Globe’s token conservative columnist, Jeff Jacoby. By the end of it, I was so enraged by its complete and utter stupidity that I woke up my roommate, dragged him out of bed, and demanded he read it. Particularly, I wanted him to recite the last paragraph aloud, just to make sure that it wasn’t some figment of a Steel Reserve-induced hallucination (emphasis mine):
In truth, intelligent design isn’t a scientific theory but a restatement of a timeless argument: that the regularity and laws of the natural world imply a higher intelligence — God, most people would say — responsible for its design. Intelligent design doesn’t argue that evidence of design ends all questions or disproves Darwin. It doesn’t make a religious claim. It does say that when such evidence appears, researchers should take it into account, and that the weaknesses in Darwinian theory should be acknowledged as forthrightly as the strengths. That isn’t primitivism or Bible-thumping or flying spaghetti. It’s science.
In other words, intelligent design isn’t a scientific theory, but it should still be taught in science classrooms because it’s science. I honestly think the liberal editors of the Globe hired Jacoby just to make other conservatives look bad. I really do.
Anyway, I was going to do a more thorough debunking, but PZ Myers has already done a far better job. Go check it out.
Via Matthew Yglesias, we find this deeply disturbing post from Seb’s best bud David Frum about Bush’s latest Supreme Court pick, Harriet Miers:
In the White House that hero worshipped the president, Miers was distinguished by the intensity of her zeal: She once told me that the president was the most brilliant man she had ever met.
Ladies and gentlemen, I give you Supreme Court Justice Debbie Daniel!

Oral sex is a leading story this week. The Centers for Disease Control announced last Thursday that oral sex is a common practice among U.S. teens. […]
One decade earlier, oral sex was a term largely confined to medical journals and sex-friendly publications.
Medical Journals? Like The Colonel Angus Journal of Medicine?
It was a term limited to descriptions of private adult relationships.
“Hey Retardo, how’s your relationship with Marie Jon’ going?”
“I’d say it’s very oral sex-y!”
Never did people link this behavior to adolescents. Today Professor of Pediatrics Claire Brindis tells The Washington Post, ??we?re talking about a social norm. It?s part of kids? lives.?
Only today? Sadly, No!
At ages 15-19, about 12 percent of males and 10 percent of females had had heterosexual oral sex but not vaginal intercourse. […] There are no trend data for females. Trend data for males suggest that no large changes in these behaviors have occurred since 1995.
