Just in case any of you are still clinging to the tawdry (and demonstrably false) notion that Right Wing bloggers hold themselves to some higher standard of decorum and civilty than we do, Ace from Ace of Spades (who resides right at the very tippy-top of La Malkin's blog-roll) is here to throw up in the punch-bowl and put that question to bed forEVAARR!!11!! in the process.
Regarding the men who write at Wonkette:
"You want dudes to shank you up your manpooters, fine. But you don't have to be a 12 year old girl about it, do you? Quite frankly, I'd imagine that frequently getting dorked up the drop-pipe would, due to the pain and general unpleasantness of the experience, tend to instill one with a certain amount of quiet, manfully steely resolve, like a toughened soldier waving off anaesthesia even though he's got a bit chunk of shrapnel in his gut, only it's even worse than that, because it turns out that shrapnel is really a great big cock shredding his duodenum with the quavering manic intensity of a palsied ConEd worker with a tricked-out V8 jackhammer and and an ancestral vow of vengeance against ashphalt."
Oh, Ace, listen. I promise that some day, if you're a really, really, really good boy, someone will take pity on you and give you the stiff, brutal rogering from behind that you so obviously crave. The loving fascination with which you detail the act's most minute biological and psychological aspects bespeaks many a lonesome night lying awake thinking and thinking and thinking about it. (Thinking about it so hard, in fact, that your, uh, mind got all chafed and sore.) It will happen for you someday, I swear, if you can just manage to stagger out of that dank basement, out, out into the squinting sun…
Good luck, my son. Keep reaching for the rainbow, Little Acey! Live that dream!
(I see your truuuuuuue colors, shining through…)
But in the meantime, if you have any questions about the mechanics of inserting objects into your rectum, I'm sure Bill O'Reilly will be willing to talk you through it on the phone.

Sounds like little ace has done more than ponder that which he posts about.
that’s one NASTY photo.
And there’s turds in it too….
Wow, TRex.
just found out over dinner a longtime friend is “dying of brain cancer.” He’s a USMC Vietvet, who was exposed to a lot of agent orange, has had severe PTSD – wakes up screaming almost every night – went from liberal to conservative and was starting to wake up when this happened. His family is devastated. Two daughters in college – one at Annapolis, the other on an ROTC scholarship. Hard to write.

Christy brought Ace up earlier this week, with one of the best opening lines to an FDL post ever on her Thompson Squared thread: “If Bob Novak were any further up Fred Thompson’s ass, Thompson would be tasting the Brylcreem.”
She then linked to Ace’s thoughts on Fred Thompson’s taste in women, and the comments from the gallery over there are equally filled with decorum and civility.
Pass the brain-bleach.

Hi firepups!
I don’t really have anything to say, but wanted to try out posting from my shiny new toy, a Nokia N800 internet tablet my mom got me for my birthday. She’s an FDL reader too, but probably won’t see this unless I point it out to her, because she’s spending most of her time here in Berkeley playing with her grandkids instead of plinking at the toobz.
Oh, and if any of you were wondering about the new job I was hinting at the other day, I can now say: it’s at Google, where I will probably be working on wiping spam off the face of the planet.
GSD @ 49
Emission accomplished.
Ace always seemed like a nasty, vile person, but that’s really over the top. Jeez, he needs to go out and find a decent guy and get laid. (Not that a decent guy would have anything to do with Ace…)
Just get it over with, Ace. You’ll feel much better after.

ET–
Technology has made war that much uglier, if only because we can no longer connect cause and effect.
In 1917, one could see the immediate effects of mustard gas, as in 1981, and make that connection.
Now, with Agent Orange, DU, nuclear weapons testing, etc., the full effects may not be known for decades.
It’s very hard for family, friends and the victim of the disease, because there are no immediate connections, no visible evidence. Just suspicions.
Happy Birthday Ralph. Nice toy.

Finally -
a grand unified field theory for wingnuttia….
ever wonder why the wingnuts are bloated and sputtering and cranky all the time?
Well, Ace clued us in.
Their intestines are hooked up backward.
The duodenum – all twelve fingers’ worth – is usually hooked up to the stomach: the food we swallow goes down the esophagus, into the stomach, and the stomach empties out into our intestines.
The duodenum is the very beginning of the small intestine. The small intestine – many feet long – empties into the large intestine (colon), which ends in teh anus.
Poor Ace: the very beginning of his small intestine is connected to his anus.
Now the intestines are a long continuous tube – one end at the anus, the other end connected to the stomach.
So Ace’s colon empties into his stomach.
No wonder we see so many sputtering bloated wingers on TV.
The tell: split-screen interview.
Colon breath.

I don’t get why bisexuals get left out of the discussion. If they try to ‘pray away the gay’ and fix him up with a churchly babe, and they’re able to procreate, that doesn’t mean squat. Most of these guys are on the DL anyway.

“Ranch Hand” was the name of the Agent Orange program in Vietnam. The Air Force personnel who flew the planes and sprayed the Agent Orange were covered with the stuff every day. IIRC as part of the initiation into Ranch Hand the folks drank the stuff. Some of the “old timers” consumed more than a gallon. These people have been followed for more than 25 years.
However medical follow up of “Ranch Hand” personnel showed only a significant increase in type II diabetes but no increase in cancer rates. I read one report where skin cancer might be increased.
Are these conclusions true? Probably,but when the Government has been shown to lie repeatedly, there will always be doubt.

Oh my. Your friend’s story is both heartbreaking and soon to be all too common. The vets I’ve become acquainted with since Cindy Sheehan’s original Crawford vigil are well on the way. The oldest vet I’ve met who is suffering is 54 and the youngest is 23. Christ, what a fucking planet.
thanks, gang! sorry I probably won’t be able to share your concerns with my jarhead friend. we sorta parted ways politically about six years ago when
Ww was appointed. I guess he felt he had to get more conservative to prep the way for his older daughter into the Naval Academy. I always thought that was stupid, ’cause he got the Navy Cross, so I think she was automatic if her grades were up to it, and she’s very bright.we used to work together on PTA and band booster stuff at the grade and middle school levels. my wife taught both his daughters in the 5th grade, and his older daughter – the middy – and mine were closest friends for a couple of years, before they got more conservative and we got more liberal. still went to each others’ family parties until w was appointed. big breaking point. shit…
last time I saw him was at a fundraiser for an incredible woman who – at that time – was being treated for lung and spinal cancer. She’s OK, now, but he’s probably not going to make it for very long.
after he was really wrecked in a firefight near Khe sanh, he was in hospital for eight months. he said his favorite memory from that time was when Gypsy Rose Lee visited his bed at a hospital in Guam. he told me that when he was acting as the stage manager in a production of “Gypsy” on which I was music director in 1995-96.
I called him recently, to see if he was interested in helping me get state Sen. Charlie Huggins to pay attention to my proposal for mandating Alaska NG vets returning from Iraq, Afghanistan and Kosovo be fully tested for exposure to DU. my friend wouldn’t help, saying he was sure “everything humanly possible is being done for our returning heroes,” or words like that….
I can’t think of anything I would trade it for, though.

There are so many indictable offences, and crimes against humanity, for that matter, that it hardly seems to matter which one they finally manage to nail him with. I do hope that, all other things being equal, that it’s something understandable. Part of me, at least, would be disappointed to see him go down for a technicality like sending email from the wrong account.
The Wilson civil matter is also far from done, also. That’s potentially much more damaging.

Before I look at TRex’s new shoes, I need to say I’m thinking of you, ET. These things are difficult. Not only the medical issue, but the loss of friends over the last six years. There really becomes times when you just can no longer hope that the friendship can be the same as it was before gwb43. It has changed. Hope things can come together again for several friends.
Also, Ralph-Congratulations to you. I saw recently about what a fantastic company Google is to work for. Should have bought stock….

Oooh, I like this…
The Robert Kennedy Foundation is holding its celebrity auction, with bidding to close on April 6th.

For a moment I was convinced you meant one of mine. I’ve got no room to talk in excessive comma deployment. I can run to downright Proustian excess if left unchecked. Some people have run-on sentences. I have runaway sentences. Sometimes I have to just drop a hatchet on the middle of one, close my eyes, and punctuate optimistically.
Okay, no, really.
Off to bed.
TRex @ 176
Well, strictly speaking, a run-on sentence has nothing to do with punctuation, but, rather, is a sentence which contains two separate subjects and verbs for which there is no conjoining clause or preposition.
You’re clean on that, TRex.
You know, the saddest part of the whole thing is that Ace probably sat there patting himself on the back and chuckling for half an hour after he wrote that atrocious sentence.

Sarah Deere, Not Complacent @ 183
I don’t think twelve-year-old girls were being disparaged, here.
Despite your difficulties, get the object of the comments straight. It was a reference to the lack of adult behavior of presumed adults, not a disparagement of twelve-year-old girls, and certainly not of your granddaughter.
Your granddaughter is not the issue in the previous remarks. Do try to separate out your immediate concerns from the comments made.
Apart from that, I hope your granddaughter prevails in spite of the bad news.
Sarah Deere, Not Complacent @ 183
Greatest sympathy for you and your granddaughter. This sounds like it must be the most difficult thing of your life, as it would be mine. Best wishes.

Early, Early Morning ( Steve Martin Joke Anyone??) Republican Talking Points Theatre…
Classic video of Rep. Marsha BLACKBURN on Hardball last night telling Chris that she wants a “clean bill”
::”You know Chris when you start talking about ‘how long is this going to take’ I think it’s a question that goes to the terrorists… We do know we’re in a global war… it is a war that is very difficult…we do know they have said…that they are just going to fight until they can defeat us…defeat our country… destroy our way of life and we have to take that seriously….we also have to take seriously that they say that the center-stone and the center-point of the war on terror at this point is in Iraq and I think it’s important that we be mindful of that-we can not let the terrorists win…we cannot let get them get another toehold over in the Middle East or anywhere else…

Mornin’ all!

Marsha Blackburn seems to have imbibed more than her share of kool-aid….
I was about to ask why these people never wonder why radicals are so prominent in the Middle East, and it occurs to me that they don’t have a clue why–it’s because we keep trying to run their countries, and if we aren’t successful in that by other means, we attack them militarily… and all of them know that–that’s how they manage the recruits they obtain….
If we put just one year’s budget allotment for the current war into regional state-of-the-art research centers devoted to alternative/renewable/new energy source research, it would not be long before the Middle East–and oil–would be irrelevant.
$100 billion pissed away every year on killing the people Bush wants to “liberate.”
As a nation, we are, at this moment, institutionally insane, for sake of profit to the few.
We’re going to figure it all out, but not before we get our asses handed to us.
When did the National Institute of Neocon Nutjobs In Eternal Sewage (NINNIES) rename their org to Manpooters, Inc?
I hate it when I fall behind the reorganizational charts of the Republican’t Dynasty that brilliantly overthrew the Left in 1980 and sustained their rule for all of 14 years before succumbing to the retardation that comes from too much inbreeding with rodents.
Stolen elections and Powerpoint presentations of the national realignment have kept the dynastic myth alive, along with the legend of the divine infallibility of Rove. Now the best argument they can muster for their movement is an Ace of Spades run-on sentence replete with too many commas instead of the spastic semi-colon more compatible with common usage.
Methinks Ace should get a new hobby. Boinking the colostomy bags of his blowup dolls with a three-inch tool has obviously diminished his self esteem till his language skills have become equally flaccid.
Pelosi arrives in Saudi Arabia
montag/tully, re: #190:
you and me baby, we ain’t nothin’ but mammals
so let’s do it like they do on th’ discovery channel …..
it’s 3:30AM. do you know where your arse is right now?
or words to that effect ……
p.s (re #190):
the oil is a nice subtext, and very useful, but i think they were destined for this madness anyway. they would’ve found a way no matter what.
droogs to the core they are. Abrams, Fuckwad, Cheneycakes, just hiding their bowler hats in Gannon’s closet.
Mornin’.
From London.
Good morning, pups. Gosh, I love a bit of civility to start the day, don’t you?! We have so much to learn about it from Malkin and her ilk… It’s just Bob Herbert in the NYT today, writing about how it’s not such a good idea to ignore a nation’s infrastructure.

Coffee and tea are ready, and it’s biscuits this morning. There’s a lovely selection of jams, and local honey. For the folks needing a “Southern” fix, have a biscuit with gravy. Me, I’m a sucker for a bacon biscuit. Enjoy.
Oh, egregious, I’m so jealous! London is one of my very favorite cities…
Hmmm…Look at Ace’s Pirate flag logo and then look at the treasureislandmediaDOTcom pirate flag logo — the notorius gay bare-back website featuring the pounding that Ace so vividly and longingly recounts…
Morning folks. Coffee please? A new foot of snow here. Hmmm…
British military personnel arrive home
Manpooter….. BWAHAHAHAHA….. Drop-pipe…..BWAHAHAHAHA…ahahah…cough….oh, crap, I spewed my morning beer…. Funny stuff for a right-wing asshole….BWAHAHAHAHAHA
Gonzales Prepares to Fight for His Job in Testimony
Not teaching an intro class right now, but was recently inspired to write some psychology-themed snark. With pictures.
Also, not sure if I’ll find time for it myself, but wanted to repost the link to Blog Against Theocracy–a blogswarm planned for this weekend.
i hesitate to mention this because it’s so maddening. on the one hand it will depress you. on the other hand it serves as an urgent reminder of one of the reasons we need to get out of Iraq:
a story in the NYT about a severely wounded Army vet of the Iraq War. he lives in southwestern Pennsylvania. it will pull at your heart strings. shades of “The Deer Hunter”. Murtha is quoted as saying the guy was the catalyst for him deciding it was time for us to get out of there.

This is not funny! More and more of us believe in this principle. Since this is a newly formed entity, we have not yet decided on a name for our movement.

Yes! Reclaim the term “shithead” from being desecrated by the likes of Bill O’Reilly and Michelle Malkin.
Shit ain’t just shit — it is fertilizer, and it promotes growth!
This is, after all, how plans become policy.
As for the movement, how about “The Bowels of Compassion Movement”?

Now that is funny!
New thread from Christy.
Ooopsies
“it turns out that shrapnel is really a great big cock shredding his duodenum with the quavering manic intensity of a palsied ConEd worker with a tricked-out V8 jackhammer and and an ancestral vow of vengeance against ashphalt.”
Gee, Ace, project much? Dude, wipe the drool off your chin.
Can you say S&M obsession??
sounds like someone has been working on their man seeking man personnel for a long time. he could probably just say that he prefers the bottom.

Um, no. Mustard gas is carcinogenic too. It’s just that health was so poor and society so f’ked up in other ways that cancer, PTS, and the other long-term aftereffects of war either went unnoticed, or never occurred because the victim was dead of something else first. Starvation, perhaps, if the person came back unable to work.
Come to think of it, some things do never change….
