It's alive...ALIVE!

So, Ace, how was that Latino Transvestite baggage handler or whatever?

Hey, those at the Corner say we're not taking Iran seriously enough on the blogs.

Insert old media joke here.

I'd really like to read the whole article if it is a Lampoon. That would be quite the post or, at least, quite the link.

Nothing would be more satisfying than to prove that Teddy was spoon fed this blurb by a lefty hack. That issue would have legs enough to walk for two weeks. I smell mad blog money.

[Ace, glad to see you back. Remember, there is no shame in loving differently!]

I peeked in on the DUmmies this morning. They are still going batshit and spewing every vile insult at Mrs. Alito conspiracy theories galore. I hope these people don't procreate.

I heard a few days ago that the piece was satire. Kennedy is a lunk-headed, self-rightous, hypocritical jerk. I was forced to watch too many hours of the hearings (been sick all week) - it's been added pain to my misery listening to these politicians grandstanding. They ask a question, and have their response pre-written, regardless of Alito (or, as Kennedy calls him "Alioto") says.

Here is the whole quote. It isn't good satire, but it quite obviously is satire.

"People nowadays just don't seem to know their place. Everywhere one turns, blacks and Hispanics are demanding jobs simply because they're black and Hispanic. The physically handicapped are trying to gain equal representation in professional sports. And homosexuals are demanding the government vouchsafe them the right to bear children."

When asked to comment, Sen. Kennedy responded "(unintelligible) QUAHGMIAH! (unintelligible) Ruuuurrruuuurrrr (unintelligible) right-wing extremists!"

Shawn: They do procreate, but they abort the babies before they can be born.

Hey, post the whole article, ands let the public be the judge of whether it's satire. The rest of that paragraph gives no indication one way or the other that it was intended as satire, so how are we to know? Trust this guy D'Souza? Why? As fas as I know, he's a RNC shill, or Alito's brother in law.

" so how are we to know? "

You're joking...right?

Read Brad's post above, he highlighted it to make it easier for you.

Given that D'Souza isn't exactly a "white" male might give you a clue that perhaps this is satire.

The rest of that paragraph gives no indication one way or the other that it was intended as satire, so how are we to know?

'vouchsafe', QED

.

Yet another author who read "A Modest Proposal" in high school and was way more impressed with it than he ought to have been.

Kennedy's like one of those public address announcers that gets tricked into paging "Ibin Fahrtin".

Is it just me or does anyone else look at Ted Kennedy and think "Denny Crane" ?

That's a pretty sorry attempt at satire, if you ask me.

But since Alito had nothing to do with it... don't our congress critters have real work to do? Like maybe asking Alito hard questions about his judicial philosophy?

Well, granted that its no 50 things to be happy about now that the pope is dead. But few things are.

It will be a test of the new media to see which version gets cemented into the public's mind.

Errr ahhh Judge Alioteetojermaine, am I to understand ahhh errr uhhh that you uhhh *hic* denied one Michael Hunt a job errr ahh as a clerk in your ahhh uhhhh office?

"Senator Kennedy's office refused to comment on the report that the article was satire."

"On a related note, Mary Jo Kopechne was unavailable for comment."

How long will it take the Dems to discover that they have made an enemy on our now-imperial Supreme Court? By making his wife cry, no less. About as smart as a bucket of warm gravel.

Carin the fact that D'Souza isn't a White male doesn't make him less of a lap dog for the RNC.
As for Kennedy, it's easy to make fun of the guy at this point in his life. But lets not forget the sacirice his family made fo the country. They could have taken their millions and spent the rest of theirt lives golfing and going to fancy parties in Manhatten. Instead they chose public service. The guy has lost two brothers in the line of service to this country and he is a true liberal icon in my book. I, or no other well meaning American should be ashamed of Ted Kennedy or what he has done for this country.

They could have taken their millions and spent the rest of theirt lives golfing and going to fancy parties in Manhatten.

And how would that differ with how Senator "TheHutt" behaves currently?

And while we're at it, you should only reference "one dead brother in the line of service to this country" in the future. One drowned campaign worker cancels out a brother killed by an Arab whackjob in a kitchen if we're going to play the "Absolute Moral Authority" board game with our politicians.

Instead they chose public service.

What did you expect them to do, get real jobs?

Crap, that was me. I was so worried about getting my italics closed up that I missed signing my work. Loose Shit.

That you are not embarassed by Ted Kennedy does not speak highly of you, Wayne. Public service, my ass. The Kennedy's don't even pay there fair share of taxes.

They could have taken their millions and spent the rest of theirt lives golfing and going to fancy parties in Manhatten.

Instead they spend the rest of their lives golfing in West Palm Beach and going to fancy parties in Georgetown and Martha's Vineyard.
