Who's Looking Through Bedroom Keyholes?

The ultra-sexually-tolerant liberal moonbat contingent (just ask them-- they'll tell you) seems to suddenly be not quite so tolerant after all.

Liberal bloggers are now offering a $10,000 reward for proof that any high government officials slept with... well, look, you know they're talking about.

Who's the only person they've been talking about for three weeks?

I think the liberals need to address Ann Coulter's point: Are we supposed to be tolerant, or judgmentally intolerant, of homosexual relations this week?

I am beginning to get dizzy, and I think I need a scorecard. Gay sex cannot keep switching from the "What's Hot" to the "What's Not" list every time it is in liberals' political interest to so switch it.

I can't even argue this anymore with my liberal friends. Oh how I've tried. As a gay man, I've always said the biggest no-no in the "community" is outing someone. It's just not done, for any reason.

Unless, of course, it's a conservative. But, no, my liberal friends keep repeating "It's not the sexuality! It's the hypocrisy!"

The hypocrisy, huh.

Like, all of them ignoring Eason Jordan, then lecturing me about the serious "journalistic violations" committed by Gannon?

That kind of hypocrisy?

At that point I just throw my hands in the air and tell them "I don't care what he did, the man is hot," and then spend the next ten minutes discussing all the lurid details of the things Gannon must be capable of. Usually shuts em right up.

So where's the outrage from Randy Andy, King of the bandwidth beggars?

'Proof"?!? What sort of 'proof' would they be looking for here? Sort of like the stain on Monica's blue dress?

I'm not sure if I'm amused nearly to tears, or just saddened by their continuing futile flailing.

oh! the HYPOCRISY!

For liberals, what's OK is to be leftist, progressive, Democrat etc. What's not OK is to be conservative, pro-life (in any context), Republican.

It's not being gay that's Gannon's problem, it's being conservative. See what the oh so tolerant liberals did to Clarence Thomas because he is also a conservative. And see what they've said about Condi and Colin Powell for the same reason.

The only 'standard' the liberals have is what kids call 'sidezes' - i.e., whose side are you on. If you're on their side, then you can do anything, say anything (see Ward Churchill) and at worst be ignored. If you're not on their side, then any possible chink in your armor (see President Bush's National Gaurd service) makes you fair game.

In a nutshell, liberals are dishonest, hypocrical (and generally rude and unpleasant) people.

Hey Ace, do you have a link to Gannon's blog on here somehwere? I can't find it if you do.

Posted by: bullwinkle on February 24, 2005 06:19 PM

No; like I said, I never heard of the guy until three weeks ago.

I think it's just Jeffgannon.com, but it's now down, with a brief message about his having to leave Talon and TalkRight.

THIS JUST IN: Guckert/Gannon's address discovered.

God, I despise lefties. Not hate. You have to care about them to hate. Just despite and scorn. That's all they're worth.

Posted by: Squatch on February 24, 2005 09:14 PM

Talon news is f***ing up big time. They should have never let this guy go. If he quit, they should have sent the boss over to give him a pep talk.
How is it I'm the only one who sees this guy Gannon as the goose who laid (no pun intended) the golden press coverage.
He is a nation wide celebrity now.
Imagine the traffic if Gannon and Talon ever got over themselves long enough to send him back to get a day pass at the White House!

(personal message for Jeff Gannon) Dude you did nothing which prohibits you from continuing with your journalism job. Don't be shy now, get back out there.

I'm still waiting for the NYT headline " Gay Men Lead Non-Traditional Lifestyle" Sub-Head "We're not Beaver Cleavers" Twenty-four point for the Head and twelve point for the sub. What really kills me about this, is that it should not be a story, yet the PRO-GAY LEFT is so one-sidedly up in arms about one man who got into the White House Press Room to express his opinion in a controlled journalistic manner. Back in '86, my government class got into the press room. OK, it was AP, but fourteen geeks and fools got day passes. If we had been "real journalists", we'd have probably been at the bar. That this non-story has legs is a nonepithet-worthy (sorry) backbiting, bitchy, ludicrous, injudicious, Pyrrhian, and all around bad example of mainstream and leftish media hair-splitting in a misguided attempt to discredit what, to me at least (recently), has been unprecedent access to the Bush White House. Kudos to Gannon for showing an interest and taking the next step. If every special interest person applied for a day pass, ..might be they would not bitch so much.

Apologies for the all caps. Fighting off flu with a bottle of Bombay Sapphire and pomegranate juice. Point I was labouring to make was that no one can stand an intense scrutiny. Also, the pro-gay party seems to really hate gays who don't vote for them. And Blacks who don't work in hotel service industries. Funny how the Republicans are now the party of equal opportunity. Seems to make the Dems and Left a bit ....outdated.

"It's f**king f**ked."
-- reportedly a genuine comment offered by a "senior Labour source"
Correction: I wrote that Labour is losing 88% (now 87%) of the seats it is "defending." I think that's wrong. The right way to say it is the seats they are contesting -- that is, they don't necessarily already hold these seats, but they have put up a candidate to run for the seat. It's still very bad but not as bad as losing 87% of the seats they already held.

🚨ED MILIBAND [a Minister in Starmer's government] SAYS KEIR STARMER WILL RESIGN AS PRIME MINISTER

He has reportedly reassured Labour MP's that Starmer will be resigning following the disastrous results tonight

It's over

"The end of the two party system in the UK" as first the Fake Conservatives and now Labour chooses political suicide rather than simply STOPPING THE INVASION
Incidentally, the only reason this didn't already happen in the US is because of the Very Bad Orange Man (who is right on 85% of all policy calls and extremely, existentially right on 15% of them)

No political party that is NOT also a doomsday religious cult would EVER choose a cataclysmic loss -- and possible extinction as a party -- to support a toxically unpopular favoritism of NON-CITIZEN ILLEGAL MIGRANTS over actual citizen voters.

Only a cult does this.

Now they've lost 84%.

Annunziata Rees-Mogg
@zatzi
If this continues Labour loses 2,148 seats tonight.

That is much worse than the worst case predictions I’ve seen.

Cataclysmic

Update: They've now lost 88% of the seats they're defending. As I mentioned earlier, I think I heard that London will not bail them out, as many of those Labour seats will probably flip to "Muslim Independent" or Green. Detroit's 5am vote will not save them.

Yup, Labour is losing 80% of its seats...

🚨 BREAKING: Labour have lost 80% of all seats contested as of 2:25 AM.<
br> If this continues, Keir Starmer will be out of office next week.

Reform has surged and projected to pick up between 1700-2100 seats.

Wow, up to 1700-2100 seats. It's not incredible that this is happening. It's incredible that the Davos crowd is so absolutely determined to privilege Muslim "migrants" over the actual native population who elects them, no matter how loudly the natives scream that they want to be prioritized, that they will gladly self-extinguish as a party rather than simply representing the interests of their own voters. Astonishing.
Remember, when they call other people "cultists" -- they are the ones so imprisoned in their social reinforcement and discipline bubbles that they will choose political death rather than dare upset the Karen Enforcement Officers of their cult.
Update: Now they've lost 83% of the seats they were defending.

Reform are basically wiping Labour out in the North. It's not a defeat. It's not even a rout. Labour are simply ceasing to exist.

Nick Lowles
@lowles_nick

Tonight’s results are calamitous for Labour. Not just for Keir Starmer's leadership, but for the very future of the party

STARMERGEDDON: In early returns, Reform gains 135 seats, Labour loses 90, the Fake Conservatives lose 36 (and I didn't even know they could fall any further), the Lib Dems lose 4, and the Greens gain 6. Note that the only other party gaining seats is the Greens and they're only gaining a handful of seats.
Update: Reform now up 145, Labour down 98.
Labour projected to lose Wales -- where they've ruled for 27 years.
Fulton County Georgia just discovered 400 boxes of ballots for Labour
Update: REF +156, LAB -107, CON -45
Brutal: In four out of five council seats where Labour is defending, they've lost. 80%.
I'm sure it's not this simple, but Reform is straight taking Labour's and the "Conservatives'" seats. They've lost almost exactly what Reform gained. If understand this right (and warning, I probably don't), all of London's council seats are up for election, and Labour might lose hugely there, as their old voters abandon them for Reform, Muslim Indenpendents, and the Greens.
REF +190, LAB -134, CON -56.

Updates on the Labour collapse in council elections -- which wags are calling #Starmergeddon -- from Beege Welborne. There are about 5000 seats up for grabs, Labour is expected to lose 1,800, Reform will probably gain 1,580, up from... zero. So this would be more than that.
People claim that while Labour has adopted the Sharia Agenda to appeal to the million Muslims it allowed to migrate to the country, those voters are ditching Labour to vote for the Muslim Independent Party or the Greens. Delicious. This shadenfreude is going straight to my thighs.
Oh, and if Starmer loses about as badly as expected, Labour will toss him out of a window Braveheart style and replace him. He will announce he is resigning to spend more time with his Gay Ukrainian Male Prostitutes.

Media bias and senationalism are as old as, well, the media:

I always thought the gag was original to the comic book, but in fact the "Threat or Menace" headline was a satirical joke about media bias and sensationalism for a long while. The Harvard Lampoon used it in a parody of Life magazine: "Flying Saucers: Threat or Menace?"
