A search of the car, a Jeep Cherokee, turned up a rifle, a live grenade, a pistol, ammunition, magazines with ammunition in them and several other “items of concern,” Schneider said.

Didn’t the Supreme Court make all that stuff legal in D.C. recently?

Guess it’s back to the streets at night for me pulling strong-armed robberies.

You could think of the football game last night as a sort of metaphor for the election: the Washington Outsiders vs. the New York Elites. And, like this election will turn out, the Elites won by letting the other team self destruct (and using lots of play action). But the metaphor starts to fall apart when you think about how the Elites aren’t the reigning champs and how Republicans hate darkies. So, I don’t know.

I have internet and cable now in my new apartment. I’m watching Anderson Cooper and I’d like to point out that the trooper brother-in-law seriously needs to be played by Greg Grunberg (Alias, Heroes) in the made-for-TV movie.

I, for one, can’t wait to see SaPa in a town hall meeting – with rapid, vicious and vile Republicans screaming for the librul’s bleeding hearts.

Jeebus, that hot Mossefucker will incite riots, won’t she?

And they thought OBAMA was the anti-christ????

The guy with the rifle in his car asking directions to the Library Of Congress
was reported to be saying “Must delete all Wonky files”. The cop was at a loss,
but I think I know what the guy was after. If someone goes through all the
Wonkette material from the past few weeks, they can decode the location for
the Kar of the convent, that’s where they hide the nuns. I think he’s looking for
the Kar Park of the convention, where his car was impounded, dyslexia is a bitch.
So is Sarah. So there. I think my meds are kicking in.
Maybe this is an aborted false flag to rally the pinheads against an attack on
part of the Washington real-estate?

Palin Comparison September 5, 2008 at 11:29 pm

Hell, she names her kids after where/how they were conceived :

Track – Yep, right by the 50 meter mark
Bristol – Bristol Bay – where the family fucks, err fishes
Piper – Piper Supper Club (during some moosehunter orgy, of course).
Willow – another hillbilly town in Alaska
Trig. – short for trigger. Because she has a VERY personal relationship with her gun

Any guesses on “Bristol’s” baby’s name?

font9a September 5, 2008 at 11:45 pm

doesn’t Alaska export, like, the highest-potency pot in the world under the “trade” name, “Northern Lights”? I could swear repubs like Palin were against pot before they were for it. But maybe that was before the light show began.

Has anyone given any thought to the “coaching sessions” on foreign policy being conducted for Caribou Barbie’s benefit?

State Dept. Official (holding up world globe) “Uh, no, Governor Palin, it’s not quite that flat. And you won’t fall off the edge if you to the end of the earth . . . or Ohio.”

Govenor of Alaska: “Really? But what keeps all them Chinee from falling off?”

Neilist September 6, 2008 at 12:43 am

Oh, and when they recruit Ben Stein to lecture The Beavenator on the “advanced theory” of Intelligent Design?

Neilist September 6, 2008 at 12:45 am

They’ll probably save the toughest things for last.

The Chief Administrator of NASA is working on his “The Earth Orbits Around The Sun, Not Vice Versa” Powerpoint even as we speak . . . .

Between “Red Skins” and Sara not knowing what an aerial camera looks like, I’ve concluded you people need to hire a football consultant soon.

I am office politics, and I have been sent to destroy Sub Standard.

I would be happy to be the football consultant – and for FREE (not THAT is a good deal!)

Do my eyes deceive? Is that horrible CHOKE background gone … for good???

HOORAY Wonkette!!!

gurukalehuru September 6, 2008 at 3:01 am

Yes! Yes! The pink is gone! Thank you, thank you, Wonkette! (and to the producers of “Choke”, you can choke on a bag of smelly peckers, thank you very much. No way am i going to pay money to see your stupid movie)

my hard working blue collar co-workers believe “she knew her baby was retarded and she still had it’ is some type of economic or foreign policy stance.

and that e-bay plane story is a big hit too.

[re=87457]donner_froh[/re]: The other stuff is legal. The “items of concern” were a Koran, a copy of the National Enquirer and he was wearing a “Code Pink” t-shirt.

[re=87550]Palin Comparison[/re]: Hall. As in “this baby was conceived during Study Hall”. Or maybe Bleach, as Bristol and the Fuckin’ Redneck was hooking up underneath the football bleachers. As an added bonus, that is one intensely white name, which will sit well with the base.

Jingo September 7, 2008 at 12:10 am

Of course Target is is a prime location for a terrorist attack… it’s right in the name. Their logo is a friggin’ bullseye for chrissakes! Go shop at K-Mart. Nobody, not even the terrorists, know that K-Mart is still in business. What about Wal-Mart? Wal-Mart would be okay as long as you avoid the toy section. With all the toxic toys, you wouldn’t want to go down those aisles without a hazmat suit.
