"Why Do Conservatives Hate the Constitution?"

Well, HipNerd, I'm not sure why the rest of 'em do. I hate the Constitution for two very good reasons:

1) it's a tool of Teh Patriarchy;

2) the Founding Fathers' penmanship.

More later!

Congratulations, Mary Katherine!

Olberman's "worst person," based on his simplistic reading of a completely legitimate point she made about former President Bill Clinton's relationship with the mainstream media, back in the 1990s.

One of my readers has suggested that female beauty makes a lot of males into intellectual basket-cases; I can certainly see why this might be the case with MKH—one of the loveliest and most talented women I've ever met.

Good work, Keith! And congrats again, Mary Katherine.

Who looks worst in this picture? Not Mary Katherine! I believe it's okay of Fausta, and marginal of MKH—but I feel I'm the "worst" one here. Paging Keith Olbermann!

Oh, Yeah.

Album art, writ large. And, I mean: large.

I've always felt sorry for my nieces and nephews, what with those itty bitty CD jewel cases . . . where's the art in that?

They are deprived. That's what it is: deprived. I shall make it up to them with alcohol, weed, pron, birth control (if they are certain they might need it), and lashings of classic rock and rolll from the 50s/60s/70s/80s. Also: alibis, trips to art galleries, work references, Los Angeles-based couch-surfing on my side of the study ("get up before your uncle starts tapping away . . . please,) in case of SoCal college/work interviews, great cheap recipes for college/early 20s dishes, and assistance in burying any bodies (or finishing off ones that were inexpertly dispatched.).

H/t: Beth of MVRWC who has, as I understand it, morals. So this post is my own responsibility. Scary, scary!

Ace on the Westboro Cult,

which will be picketing the Heath Ledger funeral, motherfuckers that they are.

No; we never did see eye-to-eye on Fred. But when Ace is good, he's very good. He sums up the Westboro Baptist Church:

Hmm... Marines, soldiers, Hollywood prettyboys... the Westboro Cult seems drawn to male beauty like a moth to a flame.

A flaming flame. A flamboyantly flaming flame which is en fuego.

Yup. I'm not one of those people who thinks every person out there who has reservations about homosexuality is a closet case. But the Westboro Baptists seem to harbor a lot of passion.

Three Years Later . . .

and I still get hits from Jeff P's post doubting my assertion that women do not, as a rule, lovingly soap their breasts in the shower.

It's so tough for men to come to terms with these things . . . especially gay men.

Dang, I miss Jeff. Next time I'm in the Bay Area I'm going to tie him down and . . . lather up.

Super-Teen Extraordinaire!

Freakazoid! will soon be out on DVD! Apparently, there will be real-time commentary by John P. McCann, Paul Rugg, and Tom Ruegger on the final product.

Here's a taste:

The highlight of this compilation is the scene wherein Steven Spielberg is talking to Freakazoid's writers and producers about a script. They are arguing that they should just "end the episode early, and show more Animaniacs." If you look closely, the writers/producers shown are cartoons of the actual people, including cool gal-around-town Jean MacCurdy and the infamously hard-to-caricature Paul Rugg.

Though my favorite is the episode wherein the day is saved by Paul Rugg and John P. McCann's real-life assistant, Greg—perfectly animated, of course. Unfortunately, that isn't on this particular digest, so I'll have to go get the DVD when it comes out.

Via Write Enough, who promises more details soon from the actual taping.

The Dancer and the Dance . . .

So, which is it? Are the kinds of people who are attracted to careers in the mainstream media more criminal to begin with, or is it that they become inured to deviant behavior from rubbing elbows with other producers and reporters?

Iowahawk delves into the twisted culture of the MSM.

UPDATE: In a fit of pique, I fixed the link.

Lying as "Protected Speech"

Oh, yeah.

An elected official charged with falsely claiming he earned the military's highest honor has filed a motion to dismiss the federal case against him on free speech grounds.
The motion argues that the Stolen Valor Act of 2005, under which water board member Xavier Alvarez was charged, is incompatible with the First Amendment because it restricts free speech by criminalizing false claims of military honors.

Rusty . . .

asks,

No, you really can't. Is there a word that describes something which is both disgusting and hilarious at the same time?

Um. Jihadi?

And, Now . . .

Iowahawk, Treacher and a few others have started a new blog.

No politics. As I understand it, they are sticking with breasts, boobs, and mammary glands. Oh, and—hot cars, cool guns, bitchin' tatts, premium whiskey, cigars. You know: the "rogue gentleman" niche. I should resent it, being a big fan of cigars, guns, tatts and cars myself—but it's not like the guys ever complain when I crash their parties.

They're calling the site bolus, which I kind of like: my recollection from high school physiology class is that the word refers both to a bite of food and a single [presumably theeoretical] unit of shit in the lower intestines.

I Dunno.

I think one has to trust one's first instincts in these situations.

The Word from Val . . .

whose Republican relatives&mostly in Wyoming—do not appear to be representative:

Will the Republican establishment repudiate the content published in [the Ron Paul] newsletters? How about the other Republican candidates? Shades of Strom Thurmond and Trent Lott. David Gergen, the only critic named in this story, is hardly representative of the party. We all know a large minority and probably even a majority of Republicans happen to share these very same views. I know this from personal experience. Most of my family back in Wyoming are Republicans and they refer to African- Americans as "porch monkeys" and yes, they employ the dreaded N-word liberally (juxtaposition intended).

I remember seeing some of my family members in blackface as part of the cast in minstrel shows held in the Cody school auditorium in the late 60s, and I know they continued to hold them well into the 70s. To this day Cody folk brag about how few black people there are in the state.

Furthermore its accepted political science that the Democratic party "lost" the white vote in the South when the Kennedy & Johnson administrations passed the landmark civil rights laws of the 60s. White Southerners have voted Republican almost without exception ever since. Ronald Reagan based his campaigns in large part on thinly veiled racism and every Republican has many Republicans have copied the tactic ever since.

Therefore: How are the views in question so out of step with the Republican Party? Joy, I have no reason to believe you personally agree with them as I have no reason to believe Paul is a racist—maybe a lousy editor—but I do believe the Republican party is generally a racist party. It is also generally homophobic and sexist, with very strong theocratic tendencies.

Some people make the comparison that the Dems are the "mommy" party and the Republicans are the "daddy" party. If that's the case I submit this particular daddy is abusive, and the electorate needs to have him arrested and thrown in the hoosegow.

Yeah. I had a few responses to that. What are yours?

So. Which Is Nicer?

The fact that Fred doesn't pander, or the fact that Chris Muir sometimes does?

(Congratulations, Chris! You've earned it.)

Last-Minute Gift Ideas

Yeah, I know. I'm linking 'em a bit late for Christmas, Hanukkah, and New Year's. But they're still useful for Kwanzaa—not to mention your friends who had the temerity to be born in the first week of January!
