The Twitters broke for a while today, or yesterday, who gives a shit, but once things became operational again, fat retarded donkey Fred Thompson was ready with a one-liner. Did you know that Barack Obama now has his SS arresting everyone on the Internet? This is what the Republicans are saying, and we have no reason to doubt it. [Washington Independent]

It’s not to late to resurrect “Dipshit McGoo” as a sobriquet for this fine national leader and admitted thespian.

ManchuCandidate August 6, 2009 at 2:00 pm

That’s pretty much the entire day’s work for Fred. Back to napping between his wife’s silicone enhanced rack.

V572625694 August 6, 2009 at 2:01 pm

And in looking at the top of the post I see you’ve already resurrected the Dipshit name. Oops. Don’t ban me!

tehbenton August 6, 2009 at 2:01 pm

Twitter was down? Why the hell didn’t anybody twat about it?

Alex Trebeks Girl August 6, 2009 at 2:03 pm

I can’t wait for him to run for president again and use screen shots like this in his ad wars to prove how anti-Obama he was.

Min August 6, 2009 at 2:04 pm

Fred is never as funny as he thinks he is. And he was a lazy-ass senator who courted the perks, but avoided the work.

memzilla August 6, 2009 at 2:04 pm

Perhaps Twitter shut down because the servers were finally overloaded by the sheer volume of inane tweetage from McCain, McCain, McCain, Thompson, Graham, Steele, Beck, and Palin.

It was a DDoS attack — Distributed Deluge of Stupidity.

Looy August 6, 2009 at 2:05 pm

They had their chance to launch “1984.” It’s Barack’s turn now.

AnnieGetYourFun August 6, 2009 at 2:07 pm

But… that doesn’t even make sense. And is not the funny.

shortsshortsshorts August 6, 2009 at 2:09 pm

Today is the day Fred earned his reputation as “Dipshit Magoo.”

american mutt August 6, 2009 at 2:09 pm

is #ftrs a hash tag for ” old farters” or just “farters”?

Noodle Salad August 6, 2009 at 2:09 pm

Why do these 20-something Republican ghost-twatters insist on using an ellipsis in every fucking post? Extemporaneous punctuation is egregiously stupid when you’re writing in a limited character medium.

HolyCow August 6, 2009 at 2:10 pm

I thought Frankenberry Thompson was dead.

Bill E Pilgrim August 6, 2009 at 2:10 pm

It’s so cute how these guys talk about “enemies” of any Democratic Administration and invent all these stories about “hit lists” and so on, while when their ideal Wingnut President was in office they went around making lists of enemies that they actually did kidnap, hog tie, and torture or gave them to some other goons to torture for them.

Russkies don’t take a dump without makin a plan, son. So you just gotta torture everyone and let God sort em out.

Bypartizoa August 6, 2009 at 2:10 pm

Good lord, who let him near a computer?

“fat retarded donkey”? Wonkette used to call him “Dipshit McGoo” or something like that. I’m prefer the McGoo moniker.

Or maybe Jowly McPudfucker

I don’t understand one goddamned thing about the Twitter. What the hell does “#tcot #ftrs” even mean?

Fuck this thing.

rereridiculous August 6, 2009 at 2:13 pm

White House enemies are tortured, reading twitter is torture. This Thompson guy might really be onto something.

El Pinche August 6, 2009 at 2:13 pm

I hope we’re peaked out on the wingnuts-go-crazy-because-their-president-is-black-for-real curve. I gotta feeling we’re just on an upward slope.

AnnieGetYourFun August 6, 2009 at 2:13 pm

GAH, that is terrible structure, even for a twat.

I must have been drinking a lot and that may have been why I pass out on the sidwalk outside my house #tcoot #farters.

I thought his note said Tweet Dreck. Hasn’t Twitter died yet?

orange August 6, 2009 at 2:14 pm

From “TweetDeck”?

Too easy.

nbawriter August 6, 2009 at 2:15 pm

One day Obama should decide to do all the things the right-wing slapdicks claim he’s already doing. Just declare Socialism, paint his face like the joker, shut down Twitter, have an orgy with European leaders, change the official language to French and declare himself Chief Witch Doctor of Kenya.

It would be the best calling out of dares ever.

Atheist Nun August 6, 2009 at 2:15 pm

I don’t think he understands.

Obama is happy that you cavemen yap all day and night about stupid, racist, traitorous bullshit. It not only reaffirms that he is doing the right things, all the time, but your whining will help him get reelected in 2012, Dipshit McGoo. So, you know… keep it up, gramps.

cynbot August 6, 2009 at 2:15 pm

On the contrary, I think the Obama administration is secretly providing all the venture capital that’s currently allowing Twitter to operate. Precisely because they hate their enemies so much and wish them harm.

Come here a minute August 6, 2009 at 2:16 pm

What is he doing on his thumbnail there? Casting a spell on all his tw4t-followers? Getting ready to squeeze a fresh one? Preparing to pick his friend’s nose?

[re=379987]Noodle Salad[/re]:

insist on using an ellipsis

Yeah I’ve decided that that …. habit is the same as the classic bad comedian doing that trailing off thing after telling a joke, you know the “And she was wearing a turnip twaddler! So anyway,” that serves as a rimshot or filler, presumably so it won’t leave the comic out there hanging in case no one realizes that they’re supposed to laugh. Or something. Just as annoying.

As long as Brak keeps his filthy Ugandan despot claws off of my tentacle pr0n, we’re cool.

Here’s the story about the Republicans claiming that Obama is compiling an “enemies list.”

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/08/06/republicans-claim-white-h_n_252721.html

If you read the story, the only conclusion one could come up with is WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH THESE PEOPLE!!!!!!!?????

(sorry for the all caps and rant– too much coffee)

imissopus August 6, 2009 at 2:23 pm

[re=379976]Min[/re]: So he was different from the other 99 senators how?

TeddyS August 6, 2009 at 2:24 pm

Fred Thompson is not important enough to be on anybody’s list of enemies, except maybe the one his wife keeps in the back corner of the upper dresser drawer beneath her white undies in the bedroom. On that he is Number Three.

hiphophitler August 6, 2009 at 2:25 pm

Now, now everybody, Grampa Fred was actually pretty good in the second Die Hard movie where he plays the airport chiefy guy and tells all the air traffic controllers to hold all flights at the outer marker and he gets to say the famous line, “Stack ‘em, pack ‘em, and rack ‘em.” Whatever that means. His downfall was that he accidentally ended up in the Senate ’cause somebody who could write put his name on the ballot and everybody in Tennessee really liked that movie. Just think how far Bruce Willis could have gone?

bustydilettante August 6, 2009 at 2:26 pm

[re=379990]Bill E Pilgrim[/re]: Foolish Fred and the rest of Nixon’s boys think EVERY administration has a White House Enemies List. They are the Princes of Projection.

Joshua Norton August 6, 2009 at 2:26 pm

Poor Fred. He really wanted to be Prez, but when he found out that he had to get off the couch to do it, he pretty much lost interest.

hobospacejunkie August 6, 2009 at 2:27 pm

Man, I hope Fred don’t sue you, because I’m pretty sure he’s not a donkey.

imissopus August 6, 2009 at 2:27 pm

[re=379984]AnnieGetYourFun[/re]: It’s a Nixon/Watergate reference and it would have made sense in 1973, so let’s give credit where credit is due. An “enemies list” reference then was the hip, kinda like making a Joker reference in 2009.

I should not drink vodka tonics for breakfast because I swear that all makes sense in my head.

He only wishes someone would pay him that much attention.

You just *know* that if Fred had been testifying before HUAC back in the ’50′s he would have been 100 times more of a gelatinous cretin than Elia Kazan.

gurukalehuru August 6, 2009 at 2:31 pm

Well, of course he’s got an enemies list. Doesn’t everybody?

You kids stay off Fred’s Twitter!

Zadig August 6, 2009 at 2:50 pm

The real question is, when will Andrew Sullivan bomb Twitter from space, for being down for like an hour or whatever?

SayItWithWookies August 6, 2009 at 2:51 pm

That’s not funny for an actual human — but for Fred, whose main acting talent was taking his glasses of resolutely, it’s the pinnacle of comedy.
And don’t expect more — that twitter was about as much effort as he put into his presidential campaign, so he’s already bored and moving on to something else.

queeraselvis v 2.0 August 6, 2009 at 2:54 pm

[re=380051]Zadig[/re]: Is he back? Or is the guy from Lolcatz still twatting in his stead?

Bill E Pilgrim August 6, 2009 at 2:54 pm

[re=380022]Bearbloke[/re]:
his candidacy crashed and burned 1 month into Primary Season, no?

No, he kept everyone guessing for months, entered long after everyone else already had, and he got far more attention by not announcing than he ever did once he announced.

Everyone was all a twitter about whether he’d run, then once he did everyone said Oh. Him. Right.

Funny to think that Twitter didn’t even really exist then, and here we are only a year later and I still don’t care that it does.

gurukalehuru August 6, 2009 at 2:55 pm

Fred, Fred, Fred. You’ve got a beautiful young wife. Why don’t you just find yourself a cozy little getaway in the woods, somewhere in your beautiful state, and let her fuck you to death. Everybody would be happy. Seriously, it’s the best possible thing you can do with the rest of your life.

Sincerely, Gurukalehuru

PlanetWingnuta August 6, 2009 at 2:55 pm

Hooray For Anything: download paltalk (paltalk.com) and search for the name obama. and you’ll see all these anti obama rooms…and you’ll see they believe this enemies list. one told me after i asked him if he believed in the fema camps. He said yes he did and he didnt think he would live (cause he would be killed) to make it to the camps. I told him good bye and waved at him. of course they kicked me out the room once i talked about the birth certificate and that its hosted on a bipartiasan site. (bipatriasn means liberal) And they accused me of being someone else who also had a brain because he said the same thing I said.

I thought it was real interesting when they said they have seen the fema birth camp pictures but when friends and I asked to see them they asked us to look for them and not do our work for us…meanwhile they were still bitching about not seeing the real birth certificate…I though hmmm ironic.

PlanetWingnuta August 6, 2009 at 3:04 pm

I sent this note to Big John Cornwyn about his views on this matter

“By requesting that citizens send “fishy” emails to the White House, it is inevitable that the names, email addresses, IP addresses, and private speech of U.S. citizens will be reported to the White House. You should not be surprised that these actions taken by your White House staff raise the specter of a data collection program. As Congress debates health care reform and other critical policy matters, citizen engagement must not be chilled by fear of government monitoring the exercise of free speech rights.

I can only imagine the level of justifiable outrage had your predecessor asked Americans to forward emails critical of his policies to the White House. I suspect that you would have been leading the charge in condemning such a program–and I would have been at your side denouncing such heavy-handed government action.” – John Cornyn

Dear Senator Cornyn

You know Mr. Cornyn I wanted a pic of you to masturbate all over but after hearing about you saying that the President has a hit list and going with the extreme nutcases in our party well I think I’ll have to find somene else to enjoy myself over.

Sincerely

Tom

I hope I broke his heart.

[re=379987]Noodle Salad[/re]: A useless ellipsis is fine; it allows people who find periods too threatening to finish their sentences in the vague and inconclusive way they like to live their modern, digital lives.

And by “people” I mean “me.”

However, using an ellipsis *after* an exclamation point is fucking deranged.

“Fred? Hey, Freddie, it’s your agent, Swifty Goldman here. Hey, that new show, “Law and Order: Winguts” called, and they offered you that part, at 700,000 grand a year, babe!
