WaPo Contorting Into Strange, Condescending Analysis To Get Some Of Those Sweet 'kagan gay??' Google Hits
Nothing like a Friday morning screen shot of strange things from the washingtonpost.com front page, is there? Here's the situation: the Washington Post would like to get in on the "Is Elena Kagan a massive lesbo?" debate -- which is rapidly moving up the list of establishment Washington media's most childish and embarrassing narratives in history -- but it must approach the "big story" with the typical sense of being above-it-all, best achieved with the old trick of blaming ALL AMERICANS and their stupidity for the fact that something stupid is in the news, which they write.
"Are we a nation of busybodies?" Ha ha ha, FUCK YOU EVERYONE IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA for forcing 10-15 professional Washington biddies to gossip about this stupid baseless nonsense all week in their heroic printed investigatively-reported journalistic truth beacons! And look at Ruth Marcus, to the left. Is Ruth Marcus a "nation of busybodies" all to herself? Yes of course! Great layout, WaPo.com editors. But Ruth Marcus is saying that Elena Kagan isnota lesbian, so it's more Mature, and she's only saying this to feed the insatiable busybodies anyway. "SHE'S NOT A LESBIAN. Here is the picture of why all of you stupid fucking Americans think she is a lesbian, tho. GROW UP, AMERICA! STOP MAKING ME WRITE THIS COLUMN YOU STUPID FLYOVER-STATE MONSTERS!"
Anyway.
But really, jesus. "Marcus: Kagan's not gay, okay? Though the discussion would be easier if she were." Huh? What? Huh? This is your weekly political column?
