Because there is nothing like bloggers blogging about bloggers connected to the blog in which the blogger is blogging about — a form of ultimate blogwhoring, (let’s call it ‘Breitbarting‘) — I hereby provide my contribution.
The nation’s most prominent famous media critic shows us that he is truly focused on the important things:
"Whatever happened to euphemisms?" I only have one of those state university educations but I’m pretty sure "blowjob" is a euphemism. But, if we’re going to play by Howie’s rules, the euphemisms that suddenly come to mind are "tool", "human balloon knot", and oh yeah, "Putz".
Eugene Robinson DO NOT take Kurtz up on his offer to polish your Pulitzer Prize.

Blowjob is a euphemism, howie, you fucking idiot.
Good morning, Attaturk and thanks for the chance to talk about the foulmouthed fem blogger this morning.
I sat at a dinner not long ago and listened to Marcy for a good while. As intimidating as that extraordinary mind may be on teh blogs, it is even more so in person. Razor sharp and frighteningly fast. (and what you don’t really get on tv is the fact that she is down to earth, unassuming and adorable) I will go to my grave proud to have met her.
Oldnslow, GMTA, the coffee kicked in just in time for me to realize that obvious fact before I read your comment.
Yada, yada, yada, Howie’s got his panties in a bunch over the foul-mouthed bloggers of the left. This is news?
Marcy is ready to replace Tweety on MSNBC.
He’s back from holiday…….it didn’t last long enough. :-((( I really enjoyed Laurence O’Donnell (sp?) subbing for him……program actually had a little bit of substance for a change vs. tweety’s “warm tingley feeling down the leg”.
That phrase have some special significance around MSNBC b/c iirc someone made an off-the-cuff comment that sorta alluded to it on Keef’s show last night.
I would get cable to see Marcy Wheeler on TV…for that matter ..buy a TV too.
Perhaps we could compile a list of euphemisms for Howie’s favorite term.
“Full frontal oral/functional erectile engagement”
“If this lasts for more than four hours, see your orthodontist”
Then we compile a list of euphemisms for Howie himself:
Not to be take seriously
Last person you’d want to listen to as a media critic
Good morning, pups. It’s Bobo and Herbert today. Bobo, in “The Way We Live Now,” has decided to explain Sonia Sotomayor to us. Really. He says the profiles of Judge Sonia Sotomayor’s life tell the story of upward mobility — about a person who worked hard and contributes profoundly to society, but who also sacrificed things along the way. Mr. Herbert, in “Chutzpah on Steroids,” says we’re reaching a new level of chutzpah. The financial industry is fighting against an agency that would protect consumers, while scrambling to raise fees on the taxpayers who came to their rescue. Protect consumers? What a nightmare — who would the financiers have to fleece then?
Here they are.
The coffee and tea are ready, the cold drinks are in the fridge for later, and I’ve got apple walnut muffins still warm from the oven. I was just informed on the radio that my rocket scientist of a Senator, Johnny Isakson, started LAST WEEKEND to read what sounds like the Classics Comics version of Sotomayor’s cases. She was nominated almost 2 months ago and this clown is just now trying to find out anything about her. Oh, his big interests — water (we’re wrangling with Florida over water rights down here), and The Sainted Second Amendment. (Oh, noes… Obama’s gonna take our guns away…) At least he’s not quite as much of a tool as Jeff Sessions. Have a great day.
Poor Howie, he probably thinks “fellatio” is the euphemism.
Morning all
Howie Kurtz – cable cop wanna be.
Mika replaying Pat calling for Levi’s drowning. Hardy fucking har.
Howard Kurtz Ball Cop?
Just had to take some of my, meager, soc sec cheque and donate to the Marcy Wheeler Blow Job Fund. It was a wonderful moment.
PS Who the hell is this Howie Putz?
Dear God,these buffoons never matured past 7th grade(my apologies to actual 7th graders)did they? He gets paid how much? Real people are hurting and struggling and this is all he can be bothered with?
I really loathe these bastards.
They love euphemisms. Enhanced interrogation comes to mind.
Also ‘misled’.
Mika’s working her little heart out trying to make Palin credible.
Or he thinks it’s an opera.
Mika’s working her little
heartbrain out trying to make Palin credibleFixed it for ya
Ooh Mika & Liz Cheney on one show?
Is there enough peroxide in the world?
is there a euhemism for;
“lied us into a war”
“exposed covert assets”
“killed our soldiers”
“took a crap on the constitution”
“destroyed our integrity and ability to broker treaties”
“destroyed the economy bringing on the worst depression since the great depression”
“broke this country in two”
“created the largest differance between those who work and create wealth and those who leach from those people”
I could continue you know, but are there uephamisms for those things?
I happen to be one of the few people who want to say it, but “blow job” is really fun to say, it gives a certain “satisfaction” just saying it, it’s not ominomapoetic but it does have a certain cadence
it’s just fun to say
other things fun to say;
“peon”…man I love using that word (you are SUCH a peon)
“hence”…another excellant word to use in conversation, feels good saying that one too (”hence, you are a peon”)
“legions”…man I love using and saying that word in conversation…”the examples are legion”
“abounds”…fun fun fun, use that in conversation today and you will see what I mean, “how can you ask if I have facts backing up what I say, examples abound”
“all you would have to do is google, results abound”
there are other things fun to say but top of the list is “blow job”
“Keeping America Safe”
I said a few days ago that if Cheney were really worried about a potential investigation into his crimes, then liz-dick would re-emerge. And so she has. Hate seeing her but love that they’re scared.
Howie Kurtz needs a blowjob.
Free Enterprise
solai and foothillsmike, you both got one that works
so simple, I feel like a peon for not knowing it
thanx!
Mika just stated as fact that the secret CIA plan was to kill Al-Qaeda leaders.
I don’t know why we are up in arms over that, i do believe if I were president those would be my plans too
why is that a big deal?
Only if they are operating in countries without anyone knowing.
Thanks for a smile to send me out the door on the way to work!
OT but couldn’t help but notice this a.m. that NPR said the Dems were releasing a health care bill today and NPR framed it as a means of assuring those “without insurance” are covered. To NPR it’s not about reforming a broken system but merely getting more people into private insurance. National Propaganda Radio doing it’s best to pull the wool over the public’s eyes. And they wonder why they can no longer reached their pledge goals.
I don’t believe that is the secret program that was hidden from Congress. That’s just another lie that is being told to make the program seem benign.
Is there enough peroxide in the world?
“Blond” is also a euphemism for these two – oh crap – “Persons” is another?
“collateral damage”
You are right about that. I also don’t think Podesta would have shut it down immediately.
Here comes Liz and she gets a kiss from Mika. I should leave now but it’s like a train wreck, I have to watch.
Pannetta.
Clearly, it was so secret that they couldn’t tell anyone at Tora Bora.
Thanks for the correction
How does Liz Cheney know so much about what her Dad did and didn’t do? Who gave her highly classified information? Spit.
There it is again “He kept us safe for 8 years”. Except for that pesky little incident on 9/11.
except for the fact that more americans dies due to his “keeping usn safe” strategy then the entire 9/11 attack
not to mention hundreds of thousands of the middle east, not to mention attacks that he will cause against our alies
the examples abound, she is SUCH a peon, LEGIONS of americans have dies thanx to her dad, HENCE we voted these neocons out of office
and clinton was impeached for getting a blow job
I guess that means I need to get impeached as well
I think it’s time for someone in the Obama Administration to go to the FISA court and request a wiretapping of Liz Cheney’s phone calls/email/faxes/cell phone!
being a man of taste and refinement (*ahem*), I choose not to watch Liz (”Lil Dick”) Cheney.
Oh yeah, and there are blood pressure issues as well…
I have a smart puppy. Liz Cheney showed up on my teevee and the pup asked to go out for a dump.
BTW, when can we get Marcy on TV to talk about “Babydick”? tee hee hee.
Hey Liz! Your father has his own little death squad and killed people with it! Let me guess, Dad’s death squad…
Sent out the anthrax after 9/11 to kill liberals?
Was the death squad that sabotaged Paul Wellstone’s plane to silence him on your dad’s illegal invasion of Iraq?
Killed Mike Connell to silence him in his role of the 2004 presidential election that was stolen in the middle of the night behind the backs of Americans while we slept?
Killed the DC Madam because your dad was on her prostitute list?
Killed Benazir Bhutto because she revealed that Osama bin Laden has been dead for years and named the guys who killed him?
Killed Bruce Ivins the microbiologist from Fort Detrick who was going to spill the beans about the anthrax attack?
Come on Liz! You’re in denial! Your father is a war criminal and needs to do the frogmarch into prison!
Come on Liz! You’re in
denialDa Nile!changed not for accuracy – just like the sound of it better…
Exactly Jayt! Da Nile! LOL
OMG, laughing this morning at Marcy’s “Blowjob Claim To Fame”! Go Marcy!
And, of course, he was/is a war profiteer making scads of money on the dead bodies of American soldiers. The guy is an unmitigated swine and his daughter is just like daddy warbucks.
Dear Mika: STFU
Swim upstairs…
Okay that made me laugh outloud.
Wow, Marcy made Morning Joe?
Okay, we need to book her.
A mistake was made, and as a result, stuff happened.
Mika’s working her little heart PEA brain out trying to make Palin credible.
Just one more leeeetle tiny feex . . . *G*
