Look, I don’t know what this tool is carping about.  I mean, it’s not like seventeen-year-old hookers are permitted to carry concealed weapons — and Ann Coulter’s already demonstrated that she has no intention of plugging him.  At least, not with bullets. So he should probably just count his blessings and, you know, shut the fuck up.  Wouldn’t you say? Good. Glad I could help. (h/t Alex)

Silly Mr Thiesssen:  of course he can.  Now, you may argue that such a position is implausible, and that it is based on assertions that are both logically and factually incorrect.  But that just means that your logic and your facts want to see the first ever historic half-black President fail.

Except to note that the terminal on which this was filmed may in fact be the very terminal through which SEK was outrageously molested by the many harassing emails I never sent him — and through which he and an LA DDA discussed the myriad legal transgressions I never

Several people have emailed / Tweeted me to bring to my attention the latest bit of tiny dick waving by the self-styled smartest man on the intertubes, Scott Eric Kaufman, he of that rather exclusive fraternity of self-evidently brilliant men who have been “christened” with a Doctor of Philosophy in English.
