St. Peter says, "Okay, you two can go on ahead, but we don't allow your kind in here. Go to Hell, you miserable disgrace." McMahon says, "But I'm only half-Irish!"... http://jimtreacher.com/archives/002089.html Go to my Twitter page, http://twitter.com/JTlol, and scroll down as you see fit. There's some good stuff there, if I do say so myself.... http://jimtreacher.com/archives/002088.html They're gonna need 'em. P.S. Defame a polite, soft-spoken beauty pageant contestant who holds the same opinion as the President of the United States and most of the voters in her own state: Hero. Defame a hideously self-deformed pedophile who went insane and died of a self-induced drug overdose: Villain. Our society deserves Perez Hilton.... http://jimtreacher.com/archives/002087.html That was yesterday, right? Have fun rationalizing why it's okay now that Obama has finally done so, and yet why the wingnuts are still wrong!... http://jimtreacher.com/archives/002086.html http://jimtreacher.com/archives/002085.html http://jimtreacher.com/archives/002084.html Confection accomplished. Heck of a glob, Barry. Barack Obama doesn't care about lactose-intolerant people. "Now watch this drive... to the ice cream shop." To learn more about how our emperor dawdled while Tehran burned, check out Jeff "What enchants you, Mr. President?" Zeleny's hard-hitting report, and Patterico's compare-and-contrast between an Iranian dissident and an American busboy. And then try to imagine the NYT's coverage if Bush had pulled a stupid stunt like this on a day like yesterday. Of course, if it'd been Bush, he'd be taking a break from his responsibilities (like supporting democracy), not a break from... http://jimtreacher.com/archives/002083.html *** Hillary falls and breaks elbow: http://tr.im/p19r That's nothing.

He did the right thing. He gave an apology in which he actually apologized to the specific people he wronged. Which, to some observers, is apparently optional. I don't think it is, nor does anyone else who's honest enough to admit what the word "apology" means, so I'm glad he specifically... http://jimtreacher.com/archives/002081.html How is it you claim to be so hip, and yet you're so woefully ignorant of such a touchstone of pop culture? Ha ha, you didn't know something. Don't worry, you'll get over it.... http://jimtreacher.com/archives/002080.html Apparently it's confusing to some people, so let's see if this helps explain why one of the jokes Letterman made the other night was a joke about raping a 14-year-old girl: The only Palin daughter who went to the Yankees game that Letterman referred to was Willow. In order for Alex Rodriguez to impregnate Willow Palin, as delineated in Letterman's hilarious punch line, A-Rod would have to commit statutory rape. Statutory rape is rape. I realize I just threw a lot at you there, progressives, so feel free to take as much time as you need to sort through it.... http://jimtreacher.com/archives/002079.html Whew! Everything's okay now, folks, because David Letterman has publicly apologized for cruelly mocking the teenaged children of a politician he doesn't like: You can tell this is an apology because at no point does he actually apologize. Just because it's an angry, insincere, self-pitying ("Get yourself a talk show, folks"), self-justifying whine, that doesn't mean we shouldn't just drop the whole thing already. They're only jokes, right? First Amendment! You wingnuts do it too! Etc. So now we're supposed to accept that Letterman wasn't lashing out at Sarah Palin through her 14-year-old daughter -- which would be totally sick,... http://jimtreacher.com/archives/002078.html Look out, Guy Cimbalo. There's a new thuglike misogynist creep in town: Before I continue, I'll pause for a moment so you can catch your breath and ease that stitch in your side. Ready? Okay. Most of the attention is going toward Letterman's "slutty flight attendant" crack, but this one is actually worse. At first I thought "her daughter" referred to Bristol. Which would be a pretty crappy joke to make about somebody's kid, no matter how much you disagree with the parents' politics (or mere existence, apparently). But it'd still be fair game. After all, Bristol did what she... http://jimtreacher.com/archives/002077.html Apparently this is the 89th most popular political blog out of all the blogs that blog politically in the blogpolblog. Guess what else? There is no apparent reason for it! But okay, here is a thing to post on a blog: Yeah, I know, it looks like her thoughts are coming out of her ear. But I do not feel like fixing it because I am such a genius.
