To this point, speculation about how the Democrats plan to go after Bush Supreme Court nominee John Roberts has been limited to fairly mundane legal and procedural strategies —eg., insist that he answer legal hypotheticals about Roe v. Wade and other settled law and try to use his answers to show that he is “out of the mainstream”; demand the White House hand over documents they are legally bound to protect, then claim Adminstration obstructionism; highlight his relative lack of judicial experience; paint him as a reactionary rightwinger, whose federalism and capitalism mark him as both anti-civil rights and a puppet for corporate interests. But, as these strategies are quite obviously destined to fail, it looks as though some of the more determined members of the reality-based community have found a new angle:
Wonkette operatives have alerted us to some details in John G. Roberts background. We’re not making any conclusions here—we wouldn’t want to comment on an ongoing investigation—we’re just laying out the facts: He is a graduate of an all-boys Catholic school where, as a member of the wrestling team, he regularly grappled with other sweaty, repressed boys. That is when he wasn’t the drama club playing Peppermint Patty, for God’s sake. He was also an editor of the school newspaper, “The Torch.”
And yet the Right still asserts that “he’s no flame-thrower.”
We like him more and more.
Of course you do. Which is why whenever you wish to sully¹ a reputation, you grab for your big broad queerbrush faster than Jeff Gannon pokes his GAY PORN COCK OF LIES into a flyboy waving a C-note.
Oh well. Let’s hope these “questions” of Judge Roberts’ sexuality coax John Aravosis out from under his rock. Because really, somebody has to scour the internet for pictures of a chaps-wearing Judge Roberts pissing on a gimp.
Do it for America, Mr Aravosis. Do it for freedom.
BECAUSE OF THE HYPOCRISY!
¹no pun intended

more here (h/t Allah)
This is how people declare a mental Chapter 11—being bankrupt of any ideas or principles.
…a graduate of an all-boys Catholic school where, as a member of the wrestling team, he regularly grappled with other sweaty, repressed boys.
No projection here. Nope. Not a smidgeon.
SB: square
Well, she did get through the whole thing without mentioning ass fucking.
Just for the record, to suggest a man is gay is a compliment. To suggest that he is an ass-wipe would be something completely different.
kk
Right. Tell that to Jeff Gannon.
Of course, that was for his own good.
Well, then, Manhattan Offender, allow me to be the first: “You, sir, are an asswipe. Actually, you are a mammoth skid mark on the underpants of the Universe. You are a thoroughgoing shitheel. You rank, in the great scheme of life, slightly below the hemhorroids of a syphilitic warthog.”
Shitstain.
If he’s gay it means he’s happy, right?
Flagwaver, you are to immediately proffer an apology to asswipes everywhere. Also to skid marks (mammoth and otherwise), shitheels (thoroughgoing or otherwise), and to hemorrhoids of syphilitic warthogs (for placing M.O. only “slightly” below them.
If such an apology is not forthcoming, your insensitivity to these communities will not go unpunished.
God I love the Left. That’s right… go after someone that you won’t be able to touch. Throw all your capital at him. Most people outside of NYC and California are going to look at him and think ‘what a nice guy.’ And he’ll be approved 88-12, instead of the 90-10 had you done nothing.
And when Bush appoints someone more controversial, watch those same people outside of NYC and California yawn in your face because they recognize you for the emotionally immature gimp that you are, lacing perspective, judgment, and common sense.
Sorry about that… just have to marvel at the responses I’m seeing elsewhere. Approval word: party. Yep, you betcha…
No, no, people. His 4 year-old son, Jack, is the one who’s gay. And when some Kossak suggested that, I’m sure he meant it as a compliment.
McGehee,
You are, of course, correct. I do owe an apology to asswipes, skid marks, shitheels and hemhorroids of syphilitic warthogs everywhere. When I wrote that, I had not seen “Manhattan Offender’s” post regarding this matter.
Having seen it, I now conclude the English language lacks words of sufficient filth to describe him. I’ll simply put him in the same bucket as Hesiod, Zuniga and other liberal trash.
Exactly, and we all know that the tree doesn’t fall far from the apple.
Do you have something against women who like to get fucked in the ass, Jeff?
Craig, only when they aren’t having sex.
Craig,
Jeff has NOTHING against women who like to get fucked in the ass – so long as he’s participating.
Wonkette may be the single best argument FOR the FEC regulating blogs – maybe they’d fine her for the “value” of the services she apparently gives away so freely. What a ho-bag skank.
I’m not sure Wonkette’s services have any value, at least not after you deduct the costs of prior protection, subsequent disinfecting, and a regimen of antibiotics over the next few days.
The “Manhatten Offender,” who thought it would be funny (and acceptably “offensive”) to call a conservative gay BECAUSE OF THE HYPOCRISY, determined it to be necesary to delete my post which noted the hilarity to be found in the irony of true “liberals” attempting to beat the crap out of homosexuals. This, I think, is the “beat the shit out of fags” comment he used to justify shutting down the comments. Apparently TOO offensive for the “Offender.”
I guess I see the distinction. Slandering and causing real pain to a real person is funny (if the victim is conservative, aka a HYPOCRITE). Pointing out the irony of liberals using the mighty bludgeon of tolerance to “beat the crap out of homosexuals” is “hate speech.”
Sorry, but I won’t condone any suggestion of violence, Miss S.
Or bold folks with anonymous e-mail addresses.

Hey Flagwaver,
Go waive you backwards swastika flag somewhere else.
Bieng called “liberal trash” by you is about as great a compliment as somebody can get.
