October 14, 2012

"Can I give it to my monkey?"

This is the essence of what Andrew Sullivan presents under the heading "Hathos Alert."

Or is it another case of "they can do it"; 10/14/12, 8:49 PM

I don't get the "hathos" thing as it relates to this. BTW, "hathos" in the urban dictionary is defined as Sullivan's desire to smell his own farts. Whatevah...; 10/14/12, 9:24 PM

Guildofcannonballs said...: Decades of lib dominance has taught A. Sullivan lessons that cannot be forgotten.

He did try.

Many haven't.

Most silence decent either way.

I do appreciate Ann Althouse, even if that makes me racist.

The idea I worry about expousing my views, which I think aren't racist more than Ann Althouse, and by that I mean not racist at all if "racism" doesn't not have (big negative double meaning there) anti-Buckleyesqueness involved.; 10/14/12, 9:48 PM

Why would Andrew find these lovely girls "revolting"?

It must be a gay thing.; 10/14/12, 9:52 PM

Lem Vibe Bandit said...: A divider.. not a uniter.

Instinct leads me to another flow
Everytime I hear a brother call a girl a bitch or a ho
Trying to make a sister feel low
You know all of that gots to go
Now everybody knows there's exceptions to this rule
Now don't be getting mad, when we playing, it's cool
But don't you be calling out my name
I bring wrath to those who disrespect me like a dame...; 10/14/12, 10:06 PM

We are going to have more flexibility after the election too.
