General Sherman jokes don't go down too well in the South. Because, you know,<i> too soon.</i>

Death to concern trolls and to the League of the South. With votes, crowbars, whatever.

I was prurient long before I looked the word up and learned what it meant, a moment ago.

This is actually the plot of Henry Darger's "<a href="" target="_blank">In the Realms of the Unreal.</a>

This would only be historically accurate if Sherman is depicted wearing a huge afro and shrieking "Burn Baby Burn!"

What's funny is that in Lord of the Rings, the "Southrons" are the evil swarthy people who worship Sauron and fight against the Noble White People of the north. /nerd

Hmm, is not soliciting prostitutes illegal in the jurisdiction in which Vitter allegedly did so? Then 'tis no mere prurience, methinks! Besides, the question of consent is rather clouded by the presence of financial transactions, especially as a legal framework confining sex workers to the shadows leaves them with minimal protection against abusive exploitation.

Oh and also, I see Mr. Wallace still has yet to issue a wide enough denial to rule out my scuttlebutt that maybe he was referring to <a href="http:\/\/www.huffingtonpost.com\/2008\/05\/21\/mccain-backer-hagee-said_n_102892.html" target="_blank">a certain John Hagee sermon</a>.

And now we return you to your regularly scheduled snark.

Although without the explanation, I would have thought that pervbroniehater was laying claim to being each of the three.
