Wolcott is funny:
Scott Brown is but the latest of the beauty-salon graduates driving conservatives to spazzy distraction. As NYCweboy argues, the Republican Party has become the fan club for attention-deficit teenage girls of all ages and sexes, unable to decide between Fabian and Frankie Avalon, infatuated with Zec Efron one month and all moony over Rob Pattison the next, smitten with Mitt Romney one campaign and pining over Marco Rubio the next. “[If] if Republicans have a crisis of leadership, it may be because conservatives have become some of the most fickle lovers of new faces: as fast as a new handsome dude (usually white, but occasionally tan) enters the room, their love of last year’s model goes out the window.”
Well, in the GOP’s defense (plus Chris Matthews, Serial Leg Humper), you really could land a 747 on Romney’s shoulders. He’s positively dreamy. And don’t even get me started on John Thuuu…ooohooohoooh…starbursts. Happens every time.

I’ll reserve judgment until I see the 2012 GOP Primary Calendar.

It will truly be interesting to see which hump they run in ’12.

I really wish that Republicans would give into their latent homosexuality.
They’d do a whole lot less damage to the world if they were less repressed, or at least getting laid.

I wouldn’t be surprised to see Bobby Jindal to show up on Celebrity Rehab next season.

its histerical b/c he pretends like the democrats arent also owned by the insurance industry. every politician is owned by someone.
February 25, 2010 at 2:34 pm
Less owned by the insurance industry. They’re at least willing to trim insurance industry profits around the edges.
But I’d rather my pols be owned by unions and workers and pro-environmental and pro-gay rights groups than big corps.
Thx.

Who owned Paul Wellstone?
Who owns AL Franken? NBC?
Who owns Russ Feingold?

I love how between the fella’s rant, it goes quiet and they shuffle papers like some ‘get on the floor’ hip-hop back beat with the volume muted.

More like this please.

They know that they need an actor’s face like Reagan’s to sell conservatism to the masses.
February 25, 2010 at 8:57 pm
Or Wilford Brimley’s.

Smiley the Sunshine ‘cuda for 2012!
February 25, 2010 at 3:57 pm
Conservatism? Is that what they’re calling the hogshit they’re selling? I call it Republicanism. Calling today’s Republicans “conservative” is like calling today’s Democrats “liberal”.

Did he say “holy owned subsidiary”? Did they finally wheedle God into confessing that he’s a lobbyist?
February 25, 2010 at 5:30 pm
This is actually why they aren’t pushing Carrie Prejean more: she looks like the office hottie that the boss is having an affair with. But conservative pundits all fantasize they’re the quiet, socially maladept girl who the boss takes over his desk one fateful night, and that’s true love, not the cheap sex he has with that tramp.
Palin’s OK, though, because they assume she’ll use a strap-on.

What’s been my suggestion for all of the past year, if anyone had asked: Put together a good, popular bill, and dare the bastards to vote against it. Then let the ’10 elections sort it out.
What Obama’s thinking might have been: Let Senate prima-donnas hash out some weak-ass shit, and let the bastards deny it even a vote. Then let the ’10 elections sort it out.
I still prefer my approach.
February 25, 2010 at 8:39 pm
Except, of course, the bastards would have denied that a vote too.
February 25, 2010 at 9:02 pm
“Well, in the GOP’s defense…, you really could land a 747 on Romney’s shoulders.”
So why don’t you try it and find out for sure, hmm?

Basically (sp) what you are saying is that the Democrat party lost in Massachusetts (sp), er TAXachussettes? ANyhow, yes.
That is mystifying. How is it possible? Don’t they have universal health-care and all there? Oh, I forgot, TAXES like you love to pay? Man, I wish I lived in that state… I wonder why I haven’t moved there?
