The polite term that CNN uses for Rahm Emanuel's latest outburst is "feisty," which is the sort of word your grandmother uses to describe the family's screamer alcoholic uncle who goes off about how his disability check isn't even enough to cover the cost of a new toilet seat when you ask him about the Cubs game.
oh yeah. this guy is shaping up to be exactly what the non batshit insane part of the US has been saying about the level and danger of wingtard discourse.
but i don't think it's really healthy to have a poster boy for the batshit insane (well for those who can get out of the hooveround and actually do shit.). for the left. or the right. or for the poor mourning shocked norwegians.
i think it would be a hell of lot better if we could all climb down from our respective trees and have a nice cool alcoholic beverage under a shady tree.
but then i am a progressive and don't much like the sound of gunfire.
I don't care if they want peen or not (a nice offer from the avian, of course)...they're missing out if they don't pick Lizzie.
if that is a rahm emanual tantrum i am TOTALLY unimpressed.
where's the fucking language for fucks sake? and the fucking TOWEL??? and the offensive fucking abuse of a fucking hapless protected minority?
meh. i threw a bigger hissy fit about shoes tonight.
Rahm could have picked any one of a half dozen innocuous replies and smoothly coasted to the next question with his patented evil leer even though he had stupidly used an old rusty razor to shave his pucker that morning and the resultant itchy rash was more than he could tolerate. For her part the interviewer should have been more aware of the obvious and asked the make up person to provide some talc.
i just wish rahm had been an asshole somewhere where it counted instead of just on my L platform back in the day.
that being said, i thought this was pretty much the level of non-story stupidity i expect from cnn.
i'm very curious to see how he handles an executive position. so far, i'm not hating.
seriously 8 hours after you posted this, the language we're hearing from this guy sounds increasingly like bagger speak.
(only he was an athlete and they are too fat to do much about it.)
language REALLY fucking matters. on both left and right.
yeah i was a big fan. i am very very sad today.
what a talent.

well the international presses sure as hell aren't.
i could only handle the economist (where the ratio is typically seven thoughtful comments to two midly conservative ones).
still, i was left wondering why on earth i am <i>so much meaner on the economist threads than i am wonkette</i>
i am not making this up.
Oh, Fuck.
wow that was awesome.
thanks pinche.
(murdochs have to be loving this weekend and it&#039;s bouquet of news that isn&#039;t them...)

Cue Republicans whining about how unfair the process has been to them.
yeah i kinda thought this was a possibility when i heard the lone shooter on the island crap.
hell yeah.
i know right? i was out of commission for two hours and it went from 17 to 80. jesus christ.
well.

this is possibly OT but seriously, this bbc headline:
