That fucking pussy LIBERAL George “Faggot Bowtie” Will.

Doesn’t he know that Sarah Palin was a PRISONER OF THE GODDLESS NORTH VIETNAMESE FOR FIVE AND A HALF YEARS?????

Gesh.

These Goddamn “Gotcha” press types.

…and then he made a confusing baseball analogy that no-one understood and pissed on the table. The end.

Iggy Plop September 30, 2008 at 11:17 pm

yeah, why hasn’t george been wearing the bowtie lately? every photo i seem of him has him in some awful necktie of the ordinary variety. maybe he’s been told that he needs to stop dressing like some guy who compulsively stuffs found objects up his ass when people aren’t looking?

shortsshortsshorts September 30, 2008 at 11:17 pm

A lot of the conservative types (including our beloved Dr. Laura) don’t seem to like Moosilini very much. They are all obviously HIDDEN LIBRULS. This is a travesty; man’s demise; heathen haters of freedoms. Therefore we must boycott these conservative liberals, who do not exist.

Dernyul September 30, 2008 at 11:19 pm

I bet he was wearing an Andrew Sullivan Autofelatio™ Mask Product and masturbating over medical records when he made this declaration.

TeddyS September 30, 2008 at 11:24 pm

The crackpot conservatives are cracking up even more. There is an inverse proportion thing going on, in which the more the GOP fractures, the worse things get and the louder the talking heads squeal that Obama would lead us into disaster. Duh.

I can see the stars from my deck, so as an astrophysicist I think I’m uniquely qualified to point out how sexist Will is being.

Texan Bulldoggette September 30, 2008 at 11:30 pm

[re=116263]Iggy Plop[/re]: I notice Tucker Carlson has also abandoned the bow tie as of late. Maybe they just realized their kitschy little fashion statement reminded people of masturbating-in-a-dark-porn-theater Paul Rubens (aka PeeWee Herman).

Vanity Smurf September 30, 2008 at 11:38 pm

It’s only a matter of time before George Will gets caught on a live mic like Peggy Bullshit Noonan.

I expect a WSJ endorsement of Obama any day now.

Smoke Filled Roommate September 30, 2008 at 11:41 pm

At least Biden knew of FDR. To Palin, FDR stands for ‘Floating Drilling Rig’ or more appropriately, ‘Failure Discrepancy Report’.

actual conversation I just overheard in a diner between two older guys (about Palin).

old guy #1: I like her, she says what’s on her mind.

old guy#2: That’s only good when you know what you’re talking about.

HOW DARE HE? George Will is a great defenders of the Bush administration’s record of stupidity and incompetence. And now he refuses to shill for Glasses! Barbie???

Where’s his smug ideological consistency that we’ve all become accustomed to? I assume it must reside in his, and Tucker Carlson’s, many ridiculous bowties.

Sooo….

This seems similar to the fallout we would’ve seen if Huckabeez had been nominated. “Smart Conservatives” like George Will and Peggy Noon fucking ADORE religious fundamentalist social conservatives so long as those same social conservatives stick to protesting Planned Parenthood clinics, phone banking and canvassing for GOP candidates. “You believe the earth is 6,000 years old? Fine, whatever. Here’s your “It’s a child, not a choice” sign and your list of doors to knock on.”

I guess it’s a different story when one of these batshit insanes might actually cost you an election instead of winning you one. Hahahaha fuck off,chickens returning to their roosting places, etc., etc.

azw88 October 1, 2008 at 12:54 am

[re=116290]ladymacbeth[/re]: You give Couric way too much credit. Couric just asked the questions, and Palin hung herself. The McCain camp agreed to let Couric interview Palin, thinking that the two women would exchange baby pictures and their favorite cookie recipes. There was nothing magical or special about what Couric did. The ‘spell of protection’ that preacher cast over Palin wore off, the empress has no clothes. katie just turned on the light.

iburl October 1, 2008 at 12:55 am

The problem with Conservatives who are now starting to make sense on some things (Bailout, Constitution, Palin), is that they already ruined their reputation ten times over during the W. years.

obfuscator October 1, 2008 at 12:56 am

Maybe I’ve been too harsh. Maybe George has simply come to the realization that the combination of a really old presidential candidate & a dangerously unqualified vice presidential candidate wasn’t the greatest plan ever hatched.

DoesThisKool-AidTasteFunny? October 1, 2008 at 1:26 am

That elitist snot George Will is just being mean to Sarracuda! Doesn’t he get it? Americans don’t want leaders who lord it over us with their “knowledge” and “intellect.” Fortunately, he and the other conservative whiners are just further pissing off the trailer dwellers. If she gets through the debate without literally shitting herself onstage, she will be declared the winner! Yeah for democracy which says everyone gets to vote!

wavingnotdrowning October 1, 2008 at 1:29 am

Holy crap. There was an earlier post here at Wonk linking to a Christian Science Monitor story about whether Palin will drop out.
But if you go to that CSM story now, there’s like 1 gazillion comment posts that have been edited. Or, rather, censored, all like this:

Lionel Hutz Esq. October 1, 2008 at 1:35 am

This is totally unfair. You are clearly taking that quote totally out of contest. George Will was simply talking about how Sarah Palin, as a conservative Christian, “is ‘obviously’ not prepared to assume the presidency if necessary.” “Assuming the presidency” is a sexual position involving anal, and Palin don’t play that way.

Granted, George Will is a right-wing prick par excellence, but he is now on our side…almost. McCain has lost the intellectual wing of the pigfuckers’ party. There’s nobody left to tell the pigfuckers how to vote, and the pigfuckers, unable to figure things like that out by themselves, may just forget that there’s an election.

[re=116297]azw88[/re]: What Couric did that most (if not all) of the MSM has NOT been doing for the entire Dubya regime, is to keep asking the question until she got an answer. She asked about the regulations that McCain had fought for 3 times before Caribou Barbie finally did the “I’ll get back to ya!” Most of the MSM would just take the first rambling, incoherent, and totally off topic answer and move on to the next question.

Terry October 1, 2008 at 7:41 am

Obviously, Will has been a secret liberal “plant”, writing conservative columns until called up to duty. Now, the call has come and his assignment is to pick on a sweet innocent hockey mom.

Hunter Gathers October 1, 2008 at 7:56 am

[re=116348]Terry[/re]: Of course Will is a librul ‘plant’. Most of his columns subsist of the ‘elite’ mindset. You know, big words that the bitters don’t understand. Hell, I’m faily edumacated and I don’t understand his drivel half the time.

I got an email forward from my grandfather-in-law saying basically that Sarah Palin had the same amount of time in the Governor’s office as Teddy Roosevelt, about two years. It also said that they both had large families with weird names (aka Kermit), and both were not thought of as being fit for office. I just about swallowed my tongue i was so mad.

Now, I know Teddy Roosevelt. And you, madam, are no Teddy Roosevelt.

While I don’t agree with George W.’s politics, I think he knows a dumbshit when he sees one. And he sees Mr. Dumbshit and Mrs. Dumbshit at the head of his party, and he’s not happy about it.
