God.  Only thinner.”

The memories?  Or the smell

of Truth to Power?”

    The most interesting comment to me was:

    The Republicans don’t run away from their freaks. The Democrats do.

    That isn’t true.  The modern conservative movement began in the 1950s with William F Buckley casting out the John Birch Society.  Since, then, a number of freaks have been cast out: Pat Buchanan, David Duke (a wannabe Republican), etc.

    The truth is that right-wingers expel their freaks when they become too freaky.  The left has never had to do this (Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, all those hippie professors, etc.) because they have the protection of the media.

    The result is that the left gets more and more freaky. 

    tw: when.  If this keeps going on, imagine a day when Kos is considered a moderate.

  8. reader says:

    Allah re leftoid disaffected Dems:  “…this says a lot to me about how dumb we would be to isolate ourselves from the G.O.P, even when they screw up. I don’t want to the Right to end up like these people.”

    Major John re Weasly Clark:  “Man I wish that guy would just disappear from public life.  ‘Fade away’, Old Soldier, fade away.”

    Yes. And a most definite yes.

    and shorter.

    face it, DNC dudes, Wes Clark isn’t tall enough to be elected president.

    also, the euro-mythology is that clark was sacced from NATO for trying to start WW III.  my euro-friends hate and fear him far more than GW.

    Aw nuts. You just had to tell us about his good point, didn’t you?

  11. JorgXMcKie says:

    Yearlykos appears to be just one more example of South Park reading the future.  Isn’t this a magnificent example of the ‘Smug Cloud’ self-fart-smellers syndrome?

    TW: ‘too’ —for a moment I thought it said ‘loo’ and was guessing you’d been successfully invaded by Andrew Sullivan.

  12. OHNOES says:

    The Republicans don’t run away from their freaks. The Democrats do.

    Translation: “We lump all Republicans together with any of those eeeevil Christofascist Pat Robertson-David Duke types and then declare that th former doesn’t run away from the latter. QED.”

  13. JPS says:

    Playah Grrl:

    “face it, DNC dudes, Wes Clark isn’t tall enough to be elected president.”

    Is that right?  I vaguely thought he was at least as tall as the current president, and taller than Howard “I’m five-eight and three quarters” Dean.  (I am aware that Dean was not in fact elected president; I just find that quote funny enough to repeat.)
