Gotta say, this new “All-Amanda, All the Time” format is thrilling!
Me, I probably would have turned this into a mix station. Talk about an old fart!
What does it mean that I’m the warm up monkey-dancer, Jeff? I’m just trying to figure out my sitch, kosmos-wise.
We Godbags do that.
Well, fortunately, it looks like she may have been fired. At which point the armadillo and his red pills can come out again.
I think a healthy balance of Amanda and non Amanda would be good. I for one come for the intelligent dissertations but stay for the soapy Amanda bits. (Wait scratch that. Now my eyes are burning. Soapy Amanda bits? what was I thinking).
Breaking – Edwards is keeping Marcotte and Shakes around. Oh well looks the Dano, Pablo and ol’ Peepee slap are as impotent with their words as they are their 2 inchers.
Having announced yesterday that I’d posted my last on the whole fiasco, I’ll be back when all this Marcotte stuff is officially over and done with. Until then, keep on keeping on.
John Edwards Official Statement
It probably wouldn’t hurt for you to issue an important action alert about a forthcoming rant Jeff. Let us all know just how serious you intend to be.
Jeff Goldstein and work – I don’t think so
Nah. Never intended any such thing.
*snort*
Edwards is counting on the press not repeating what was really said. The words—and the sentiments expressed—are inexcusable; anyone who’s read them sees the lie in the Edwards statement. They’re so awful newspapers can claim their “standards of decency” don’t allow them to publish them.
Wonderful “press” we have here.
Hahahahahahahahahahaha!
Penis envy is so ugly.
As I’ve stated elsewhere, I don’t care whether they keep their jobs or not. I’m happy for them. But more than that, I’m happy for us.
Oh, and yeah, guys, there ARE other things going on in the world. I mean, a lunatic, love-sick astronaut drives nine hours wearing a diaper, then attempts a kidnapping—AND ALL WE’VE GOTTEN HERE IS A THROW-AWAY LINE?!
Sheesh.
Why rant?
Edwards just showed Marcotte up as a fraud and a blowhard.
If it was never her intent to malign anyone’s faith, she probably wouldn’t have, you know—maligned anyone’s faith.
But of course it was her intent. That she has assured her sugar daddy she’ll behave, now that he’s promoted her to the grownups’ table, is one of the most pathetic surrenderings of one’s integrity I’ve ever seen.
Edwards and Marcotte deserve each other. But a presidential candidate who tries to sell me on the fact that Marcotte and her group of shrieking ill-tempered character assassins had no intent of maligning anyone is an insult to anyone with a functioning brain.
Similarly, if Edwards believes “we’re beginning a great debate about the future of this country,” he might start by instructing his “Blogmistress” that deleting dissenting opinions doesn’t exactly further “debate” as it is commonly understood.
Of course, “debate” as it is understood in progressive circles means only circling the wagons and attacking dissenters—so, in at least one America, Edwards is directly on point.
The best part of this BS “story” for me was being exposed to the wisdom of Catholic spokesman Bill Donohue. I always knew the Jews were money grabbers and all but I didn’t know about the on demand anal sex. I need to go to church more often to find these things out.
This word ‘malign’ – it does not mean what you think it to mean, John Edwards.
Amanda Marcotte – Pandagon – link supplied

Well, gee – I guess a Monsignor’d have to be a moron to consider that post ‘maligning’ his dumbass religion.
Thankfully, Ms. Marcotte puts the ‘religion’ tag on her non-maligning posts.

PAY ATTENTION TO ME! I WEAR I’LL HOLD MY BRETAH UNTIL YOU DO! PAAAYY ATTENTION TO MEEEEEE!!
I should have said money grubbers above, no?
It sure would be interesting to see if Mandy was willing to spend so much energy and vitriol on Islam as she does on christianity. Personally, she hasnt got the balls for that. Since christians are not known for beheadings and walking around with signs stating “behead those who insult islam”. Just like a bully, picks on the easiest target knowing they can get away with it.
Okay, I’ll give Edwards props for standing beside his gals. He would have lost the nutroots folks had he not. But now that they are sitting at the big people table, what are they? Just a couple more leftists watching their words so their real opinions don’t show through.
Cue the movie cut to “The Candidate.” The Robert Redford character has just won the election and sold his soul. “Now what do we do?”
Now gals, you publish wonky public policy reports and try to get your old friends to understand that you are still as “Punkass” as they, you just gotta keep it on the downlow for your new gig.
Hope you enjoyed your fifteen minutes. Next.
I bet her sphincter was so tight writing those lines that she may have formed a diamond out of digested carbon material. She better have a dentist take a look at what is left of her ground down teeth too. What a load..
The best part about this, apart from the obvious humor goldmine it provides, is that Hillary hasn’t taken her shot yet. If the left blew a gasket this large over reaction from the catholics and reich whingers, whom they hate, how will they react when the criticism is coming from within? Because you have to know that’s coming. Hill can only choose one to come aboard, and I’m doubting it’s gonna be Johnny boy.
The rant comment was an attempt at a joke at Chris Bowers self important musings on the issue.
But more to the point, showed up Edwards too.
The guy knew what he was hiring, all his God talk and hawkishness on Iran is total bull. If what’s her name really believed in what this guy says she would never have worked for him in the first place. Let’s give it up, they deserve each other.
Riiiiight, a personal injury lawyer, personally offended?
Well, he didn’t make any bucks off of it. I’m sure he finds that offensive.
C’mon now, guys. It’s Jeff’s turn to play with the blog. After all, it is his.
Come on, give it back to Jeff. If you do, I bet you he’ll let you play with one of his bottles of Irish Whiskey.
Come on, give it back. Now.
I said, now! Don’t make me come in there…
I rather look forward to Jeff resuming too…
I grew up sharing a bedroom with two brothers, one older and very mean, one younger and very mean. We fought all the time, both verbally and physically. One of my greatest childhood victories was catching my older brother with a forceful uppercut to his nuts when he snuck up on me from behin, to hit me, for the 7,000,000th time.
After that he came at me head on, and oddly enough, not as often. Go figure.
What has this to do with Edwards? Think how slimy he has to be to accept that the things written by his new bloggers are NOT offensive. And then imagine catching him with a forceful uppercut to his nuts.
There, don’t you feel better now?
Well, they are white; two inches is relatively large for that demographic. But they do have ten inch tongues.
Translation: I never read a word they wrote. I asked them if they did anything wrong, and they both said “no.” You know I can’t look into this any further and maintain plausible deniability. Go away, before I sue you.
