| Erosion Continues: Bush Slips Behind Nationally, and in Ohio »
October 13, 2004
And I Thought Oliver Willis Was Not-FunnyH/t to Drudge. So, to get those possibly-drifting Jewish voters back into the Democratic camp, some moron has come up with a Jewish superhero -- a Jewish grandmother named "Bubbie" -- and put together a cartoon of her kicking the ass of the GOP. It's every bit as funny as you'd think. By which I mean: Not funny. Fucking embarassing. I did a Jewish Grandmother schtick the other day. But my schtick was ironic. (Not funny, mind you, but ironic.) I mean, the Jewish grandmother thing is such a cliche that it's only funny when you're playing it as a cliche. Not for real. Then it's just fucking stupid and trite. This asshole really seems to think that Jews need a Jewish cartoon character to inspire them to vote the right way. Eh. Or, should I say: Feh. It remains an amazement to me that I am not yet on television. Update: The Hebrew-sounding synth music is really subtle, too. I'm not saying it's racist or anti-semitic, mind you. It's just... jackass. In order to do my part to convert Jewish voters to the GOP, I'm going to spend the next week talking about nothing except Fiddler on the Roof and Ben Gazzarra. Better Still: I'll get Bowzer to guest-blog. That'll bring the Jewish vote. Because, if I know one thing about politics, I know this to be diamond-hard fact: Jews. Love. Fuckin'. Bowzer. Bowzer. posted by Ace at 05:04 PM
CommentsI saw this idiotic thing this morning. Pathetic JibJab wanna be. Posted by: blakjack on October 13, 2004 05:24 PM
My goodness... that had the potential of being funny... but once the grandmother began spouting talking points I shut it off. You'd think they'd be able to make it at least a *little* funny. Posted by: Rob on October 13, 2004 05:33 PM
This was pretty offensive in of itself. THat it was hosted by an official arm of the DNC is extremely offensive. You would think after that little to-do in Europe 60 or so years ago the JEws would be more sensitive about wildly inaccurate charges made in the form of grotesque caricature. Posted by: Eric Pobirs on October 13, 2004 07:03 PM
Fuck This is possibly even more outrageous than that Condi-as-plantation-mammy cartoon. I can't believe Jews were involved in creating this. The part where Perle and Wolfowitz say "we're one of you" and start doing the hora hit me right in the gut; it's very nearly anti-Semitic. Actually this reminds me of that stupid "Choice Girl" animation they had a while ago, down to almost every detail. Maybe next week it'll be "Trial Lawyer Man". Posted by: Yaron on October 14, 2004 12:15 AM
Nah, come on. I don't think it's actually anti-semitic. Even if Jews weren't involved with it, I don't think it's anti-semitic. I don't like the left's tendency to take EVERY play on an ethnic stereotype, no matter how inoffensively meant, as an "outrage" (at least when committed by political opponents). The cartoon is fucking stupid and jackass and yeah, trite in its peddling of a very well-worn Jewish grandma stereotype. But I think we have to distinguish bad humor from ill humor. Posted by: ace on October 14, 2004 01:22 AM
Well, nearly so. Taken out of context, showing Perle and Wolfowitz doing the hora might seem like an innocent joke (not a funny joke, but that's another story), but given the vitriol at the Jews/"neo-cons" who have been involved in creating our foreign policy, I'd say it's treading on very thin ice. Posted by: Yaron on October 14, 2004 11:16 AM
"Pathetic JibJab wanna be." I'm glad someone else noticed the animation style was a poor imitation of Jibjab. Posted by: Yehudit on October 15, 2004 05:37 AM

David Strom connects the Fiercely Heterosexual Cory Booker (TM) and his Theater Kid Energy to the Democrats' belief that they're all superstars who glow in the spotlight
They're always protesting using painfully bad dance numbers and song renditions. Which side are you on...?

I Can't Believe It's Not Bryan Adams Edition Well I saw you on the avenue And as usual you're with someone new I guess there's nothing left for me to do but turn away I'm growing tired of all your alibis There ain't one you can justify I ain't gonna take it anymore and I'll tell you why You know, I wrote "I Can't Believe It's Not Bryan Adams" and then realized, "Wait, this is so blatantly a Bryan Adams-style song this might actually be a genuine Bryan Adams song, let me look this up." In fact, yes, it's co-written by Bryan Adams and Jim Vallance. And I guess I would have realized that if I just watched the video, in which Bryan Adams plays guitar and contributes backing vocals.
Jason Statham's Working Man beat Snow Woke at the box office this weekend. The Chosen, a movie made up of three episodes of a show available on TV, almost beat Snow Woke too, cashing in $11 million over the weekend.
I't's time to let go. Actor Val Kilmer dies at 65. Doc Holiday in Tombstone was his ultimate role, but I'll always love his comedic turns in Top Secret! and Real Genius. RIP. [Weirddave]
Sen. Cory Booker Speaks All Night on Senate Floor to Protest Against Trump's Agenda So what! Apparently his beard has a date and he has nothing else to do. [CBD]

"We Got the Receipts" recaps some of the Tesla Terrorism the left has perpetrated the past week
Democrats plan a global terrorism campaign next week, Tuesday I think, called "Takedown Tesla." Democrat politicians encourage the violence and refuse to condemn it. Well okay, but if violence is approved for your side, it's approved for ours as well.
Flashback: Zombie Joe Biden's "Farewell Address"
Was this the worst speech ever delivered by a "president"?

Masih Alinejad "Where are @AOC, @IlhanMN, the left-wing activists who called me an Islamophobe, and the campus protesters chanting "I am Hamas"? The killers sent by the Islamic Republic to assassinate a woman on US soil were convicted in federal court, You're silent. Why?" [CBD]
Great interview of Howard Lutnick, Secretary of Commerce, and a close friend of Trump for 30 years. He explains the blueprint for Trump's financial transformation of the USA and how it really will succeed. I can't recommend this long video enough. [dri]
