Look at the comments, too. I wonder: does Frum ever look to who his “followers” are when he tries to pretend he’s on the right?

I don’t know why, but whenever I see the name David Frum, I immediately picture Ned Beatty in Deliverance. And I hear pig noises.

What’s particularly galling about Frum is that he does everything passive-aggressively. At least the moonbats have the courage of their convictions, but for Frum – author of “Unpatriotic Conservatives” – he likes to dig the knife in while hiding behind a veneer of civility.

Cultural Query: Why is it that BEING something that men desperately want to HAVE constitutes an insult? Likewise, why is a synonym for coitus one of our crudest vulgarites?

I’m not certain, di, but George Carlin did a long bit on that very topic.

Ernst Schreiber says:

Probably because it’s dehumanizing.

David Frum is and has always been a low-life.

Frankly, I’m surprised there are that many comments on a Daily Beast article, especially so soon. Isn’t it the blog equivalent of the long-past-current magazines you find at the dentist’s office or the jury room at the county courthouse?

Seriously — it’s like he and Precious Andy are having a contest to see which one can better convince the world that he’s still relevant.

I’m pretty sure it’s a guy thing, the contours of which I’m not sure I fully apprehend. I seem to remember it being addressed in that Hitchens article about humor and men.

Probably because it’s dehumanizing.

Then why not call someone a pancreas or a fingernail?

Something about the dual imagining of sexuality, I guess, in that it is utterly holy and sacred and therefore utterly vulgar in its antipodal sense.

Ace delineates a nice contrast:

David Frum exceeded Andrew Breitbart in one measure only, span of life.

But not in life.

David Frum will die as he lived, gray, timid, small, spiteful, cramped in thought and bent in spirit, slender of talent and obese in self-regard, unloved, unnoticed, unremembered and unread.

Better to live outrageously for only a short spell than to hiss from the shadows, content to live within the niggling license of Master’s Leash.

If Andrew Were Alive… and I mentioned to him that David Frum had lit into him, I have to imagine he’d say, “Who now?”

I’d then say “oh, he’s been making his rent off of ‘Axis of Evil’ for ten years,” and Andrew would say, “Oh, okay. I liked the ‘of.’ “

Silly Lefties. When you kill a Jedi, you only make him stronger.

Since I have a lot of brothers and have been married a few times, I’m guessing that it has to do with their image of themselves as Lotharios. How many times has it been said of a woman who is in a bad temper “What she needs is a good (fill in the term)”? Evidently, application of penis is like baking soda: it’s utility is myriad.

Conversely, women can’t make disparaging remarks about another woman without being accused of insecurity or jealousy.

I’ve lived a half century and I still don’t get it.

ISTR that one of the Yiddish words for male genitalia also means “pushy jerk”. Which is why “cock” is an insult. It conspicuously demands attention, shrivels up and hides when threatened, and causes endless trouble.

You know, Frum, it’s time for a long, hard look at what has led you into the abyss.

Underneath the pseudo-intellect and faux seriousness beats the heart of a tittering minor courtier desperate to maintain his insignificant position near those who are nearer to the throne. He doesn’t realize he’s only as close as he is because he’s somewhere between a diversity zoo specimen (“Behold our token conservative!”) and a court fool-in-waiting.

Or worse yet, he does. In any event, I’ll make sure to never read another word he writes.

Not usually a fan of Ace but he has a pretty good take down of Frum. Its amazing to me that liberals think death is license to celebrate. If Michael Moore died tomorrow, I certainly wouldn’t shed a tear but I also wouldn’t be celebrating on every liberal blog I could find. The Left’s compassion is sometimes just overwhelming.

Something about the dual imagining of sexuality, I guess, in that it is utterly holy and sacred and therefore utterly vulgar in its antipodal sense.

Also because sexuality involves the most animal part of human nature. I mean, any animal can copulate. Most do so without any say in the matter. Only man can choose not to do so.

Don’t try to convince Sandra Fluke of that, however.

Crawford says:

March 1, 2012 at 2:14 pm

Matt, I fear the left is so conspicuously celebrating so as to give a green-light to their more intemperate members.

Having is to be in possession of. Being is to be possessed by something. One is to be the master of yourself. The other is to be enslaved, owned.

I sincerely hope that when I die I elicit these same outbursts from these same people.

Huge cocks are ridiculous. Only look at Aubrey Beardsley’s illustrations of Lysistrata for a good laugh.

Those are just like willies only much smaller, sdferr.

Frum is a pathetic, shallow, jealous man. He expected the world to love him on the basis of swallowing his pride (or something) and writing a few speeches for GWB. As it turns out, he’s a turd in the Republican punchbowl, but a reliable squishy stenographer for the moderate (aka feckless) wing.

I shit more intelligent stuff than he.

For all the problems I encountered in high school, at least my last name wasn’t “FRUM.” Talk about a last name that screams “I was pounded daily while in high school.”

Frum has officially gone from milquetoast Republican to complete douche. Jackass Frum cannot even maintain the slightest facade of manners. I’ll be that dandy knows the correct temperature to serve Chateau de Beaucastel Chateauneuf-du-Pape 2008 without having to look it up. Because heaven forbid Frum would be so gauche as to serve Chateau de Beaucastel Chateauneuf-du-Pape 2008 chilled….

I read somewhere that you can leave penis in your refrigerator to absorb excess odors.

Also, if you run out of toothpaste or mouthwash, just stick a little penis in your mouth and slosh it around for 30 seconds. Minty fresh!

I’ve never actually called anyone a huge cock before. I usually stick to the more mundane “pathetic dick”, or maybe cock-sucker, if I don’t think they’ll take it as a compliment.

Jeffs description did bring back a nice memory though. Me and a couple buddies, spread out walking a rye field that lay in windrows, no. 6 shot in my browning, looking for pheasant. Suddenly, 20 feet in front of me, explodes this huge cock…

i remember when danielle crittenden, Frum’s wife, was all manner of important in RW circles.

That ended when Frum started hating everything and everyone on right wing side.

Frum’s sanctimonious holier-than-thou I am above all of your hatiness passive aggressive BS is just that, bullshit. Fuck you, swordfish-style. Poofter.
