On "seriousness" [updated]

What a difference a week makes, eh, Laura?

How utterly disappointing.

****
update: Not serious. Serious.

Christina Romer is right. We are so fucked.

    who is this lady exactly? She sounds like a run of the mill propaganda whore.

    I will google.

  2. dicentra says:

    Se’s under the delusion that half a loaf is always better than none, whereas Lee recognizes that you can’t get what you want if you don’t even demand it.

    Also, that if you vote for a bad bill, you’ll get primaried, as happened to his predecessor.

  3. Darleen says:

    Remember Laura Ingraham is a lawyer by training. I think it does something to the thought process.

  4. sdferr says:

    Mistaking the serious for the unserious gets the mistaker put into the latter rather than the former category. Howzat, Laura?

  5. happyfeet says:

    The internet says she’s from connecticut, which is very neurotic and boozhy.

    It says she’s some kind of reformed hateful anti-gay bigot what turned her back on her gay brother but then changed her mind cause she respected how her brother had formed a respectable long-term relationship. Ironically at the age of like 50 she’s thus far shown a decided lack of ability to enter into and sustain a healthy long-term heterosexual relationship herself. It says she was fucking Robert Torricelli for awhile.

    Creepy. But really it’s the most interesting thing about her.

  6. Joe says:

    The caller sounded like a plant, happy may be right on that. Laura Ingraham goes right into pragmatic. Ugh.

    And happy, good call, this is for you.

  7. Joe says:

    happy, just sending you that link because it references cupcakes. Don’t read more into it.

  8. happyfeet says:

    that was disturbing

    I bookmarked it.

  9. Ernst Schreiber says:

    Laura has been incredibly disappointing during this entire debt ceiling debacle —caught a bad case of the team rah rahs, I guess.

  10. Pablo says:

    It’s days like this I want to punch an old lady in the face.

  11. sdferr says:

    Bret Stephens spells Obama out for the unserious folk who haven’t been keeping up.

  12. RTO Trainer says:

    boozhy? What is Boozhy?

  13. sdferr says:

    Guessing? It’s non-slavic slang for bürgerlich or bourgeois

  14. McGehee says:

    Bourgeois, as pronounced by people who say things like, “I’m-a let you finish, but Beyonce wiz robbed!” or whatever that was.

  15. happyfeet says:

    yes that’s right for example Santa Monica is very boozhy and the raw vegan place with the power lesbians by where I work is very boozhy

  16. sdferr says:

    Ok, so what’s a power lez? This could easy go on awhile I’m thinking.

  17. Darleen says:

    shown a decided lack of ability to enter into and sustain a healthy long-term heterosexual relationship herself.

    Her fiance dumped her after she was diagnosed with breast cancer. I don’t blame her for maybe being a little “once burned twice shy”

    She adopted a little girl and is doing quite nicely.

    I may disagree with her on policy, but your personal attack on her because of teh ghey is very revealing, griefer.

  18. sdferr says:

    A Bey once was a Turkish commander type power lesbian only with a dick sort of lesbian Turkickly.

  19. sdferr says:

    because of Lesbos, that is

  20. happyfeet says:

    the power lesbians are haughty and judgey and they get away with it cause they’re well put-together and supermodel thin and cultured in a narrow way

    they might could be from connecticut I think

    the first time I was in the raw vegan place a power lesbian asked me what I’d like to drink and I said a diet coke

    oh boy. Do you think she could just say I’m sorry we don’t have any soft drinks? Oh but no. She pauses, slowly curls her lip, pauses again, furrows her brow, and says no we don’t have that I’ll give you a moment to look over the menu and walks off.

    Like a bumpkin is how I felt. Like I’d been judged and found wanting and in that moment in that place under the scornful gazes of the imperially slim power lesbians I felt humble. But I got over it. They have really tasty tasty shakes made out of like almond milk or something but they’re $7, so it’s a sometimes food at best and a not at all food on weeks like this one.

  21. happyfeet says:

    oh get over it Darleen she’s just some no-account hoochie on the radio same as ryan seacrest or that kennedy chick if she went caput tomorrow they’d just fill her slot with whatever was at hand and a year later nobody would remember her goddamn name

  22. Pablo says:

    Damn, you just hate you some uppity bitches, huh?

  23. Ernst Schreiber says:

    Like a bumpkin is how I felt. Like I’d been judged and found wanting and in that moment in that place under the scornful gazes of the imperially slim power lesbians I felt humble. But I got over it.

    I don’t think you’re as over it as you think you are.

  24. happyfeet says:

    Mr. Ernst why is it that I feel quite justified in suspecting that you judge me from a place what is far far far removed from the redoubts of the imperially slim power lesbians?

  25. happyfeet says:

    Mr. Pablo media is cheap and American media is especially cheap cause with the naked eye you can’t see even halfway to the end of the line of the breathless panting whore-creatures wanting to provide content for it – it just goes on and on and on.

  26. Ernst Schreiber says:

    I don’t know. Because I’m about as far far far removed from imperially slim power lesbiandom as it’s possible to get?

  27. bh says:

    I’d judge you if you ordered a diet soda.

    Poison.

  28. Joe says:

    Laura is just wrong on this whole debt ceiling issue. I am sorry her fiance dumped her. I do not want to get into it beyond that.

  29. Joe says:

    Boehner got boned.

  30. RTO Trainer says:

    So, here at PW is a good place to adopt, not only the language of class warfare, but a distinctly identity flavored version of it?

  31. alppuccino says:

    Sexual orientation aside, because happy, you never know when, in your travels, you’ll run into someone whose child is gay, and is sworn to protect and defend that child, and then they beat you to a crumbly, chocolaty pulp.

    Which candidate is going to point out that Obama’s first instinct when crisis hits, is to play golf? “Mr. Obama, the BP platform blew up and you played golf. Libya went up in flames and you played golf. America was downgraded and you played golf. And by the way, if your game improved you might become a terrible golfer. Because at this point all you’re doing is swinging a stick. If your golf game doesn’t improve and it’s the thing you do the most, why should people think your presidenting would improve when it’s the thing you do the least?”

  32. Pablo says:

    I see, ‘feets. And you’re prepared to sink to the occasion.

  33. I’d be more serious today except that my asshole is all stretched by the unlubed fucking it took yesterday and I can swear that the wind whistling past it is playing “Don’t You Want Me” by the Human League. So I’ve been giggling all morning. While standing up, of course.

    It’s also creating quite good bass response in my office, like a passive sub-woofer.

  34. Pablo says:

    Now you know how Barney feels, LMC.

  35. I don’t think it’s true. We wouldn’t have heard it.

  36. Slartibartfast says:

    Like a bumpkin is how I felt.

    Which, naturally, you blame on the “power lesbian” instead of on the person that tried to order things not on the menu.

    Try ordering a Slivovitz at Starbuck’s, sometime.

  37. happyfeet says:

    I had arrived at a place in my life where I took the ubiquity of diet coke for granted. I’m that that guy anymore now though.

  38. happyfeet says:

    I’m *not* that guy anymore I mean

  39. McGehee says:

    Oh happy, you are very much That Guy. You are That Guy™ for most any occasion.

  40. happyfeet says:

    you just sayin that cause you like to give me the business eddie
