More on the Whining Crybabies

Ken AshfordIraq, Right Wing Punditry/IdiocyLeave a Comment

Yesterday, I blogged about the whining crybabies on the right who are upset because the Pulitizer Prize for cartooning went to someone on the left.  Athenae talks about the other gripe they have, and he is totally correct: Via Atrios: disgusting sons of bitches. Now, the right-wing pajama brigade is in full attack mode against the Pulitzer Prize awarded this … Read More

Schiavo Memo Silliness

Ken AshfordAssisited Suicide/Schiavo, Right Wing Punditry/IdiocyLeave a Comment

Here’s the story, roughly, in a nutshell: March 20:  The Washington Post reports about how the Republicans are using the Schiavo story for political gain, citing a one-page memo obtained by ABC News: An unsigned one-page memo, distributed to Republican senators, said the debate over Schiavo would appeal to the party’s base, or core, supporters. The memo singled out Sen. … Read More

What Sean Hannity *Really* Thinks of the Pope

Ken AshfordRight Wing and Inept MediaLeave a Comment

From January 2003: COLMES: …And before you respond, let me just put up what the pope says. “No to war,” says Pope John Paul II. “during his annual address to scores of diplomatic emissaries to the Vatican… ‘War is not always inevitable,’ he said. ‘It is always a defeat for humanity.’” Are these a bunch of wild-eyed liberal loonies? HANNITY: … Read More

World Nut Daily Journalism

This is funny. The conservative "journalism" website WorldNetDaily has posted a story here about CBS’s plan to make a Terri Schiavo made-for-TV movie: CBS is rushing a Terri Schiavo TV movie into production so that it can air the biopic during the May ratings sweeps. […] CBS’ Terri story reportedly will feature "Felicity" star Keri Russell to star as America’s … Read More

March 29, 2015 is the day that, according to that mental giant Bill O’Reilly, we will all be able to marry goats, "mark his words": O’REILLY: The judges in Massachusetts knew they weren’t going to be impeached when they said to the state legislature, "Gay marriage is now legal in Massachusetts because we say it is. We the judges" — … Read More

Schiavo’s Body Is Dead

RIP, finally. UPDATE:  The response from the right-wing blogosphere — full of death poems and scripture, not to mention wailing and gnashing of teeth — was a little TOO predictable, don’t you think? UPDATE #2:  I take that back.  I was just home for lunch and caught about 20 minutes of the cable news networks.  Man, do they want this … Read More

Pat Sajak has a blog.  It has many pictures of him putting his hand on his chin in a thoughtful pose.  Or sitting on a tall stool, putting his hand on his chin, in a thoughtful pose.  In Pat’s blog, he writes: Arguing with Liberals, and Why I’ve Stopped Every time I argue with a Liberal, I’m reminded of quarrels … Read More

Little Lulu: Dishonest or Stupid?

Here’s Michelle Malkin in her latest crybaby post: Update: Some bioethicists are now arguing that Terri is not a human being: Wesley Smith: Bill, do you think Terri is a person? Bill Allen [a bioethicist]: No, I do not. I think having awareness is an essential criterion for personhood. Even minimal awareness would support some criterion of personhood, but I … Read More

Michelle Malkin – Beyond Stupid

Ken AshfordRight Wing Punditry/IdiocyLeave a Comment

Hardly a day goes by when Michelle "Little Lulu" Malkin doesn’t write something incredibly duplicitious or illogical.  Yesterday was no exception: One of the pro-abortion Left’s favorite attacks on people of faith is that we only care about children before they’re born and not afterwards. Hint to Malkin: linking to a Google search (search=anti-abortion+only+care+about+children+before+they+are+born) is pretty lame to begin with, … Read More

A Rant Against Idiocy

Ken AshfordRight Wing Punditry/IdiocyLeave a Comment

PZ Myers has had it up to here with the morons on the religious right who continue to — well, lie — about evolution out of either (a) intentional ignorance or (b) cognitive dissonence: I know what some people are thinking: just don’t call them "stupid" or a "moron", it distracts from the scientific argument. Of course it does; but … Read More

South Determined To Stay Ignorant

This really takes the cake.  Showing of an IMAX volcano film is being denied by IMAX theaters in the South because it suggests that observable similarities occur between the DNA of species Buzzelli said while the Charleston theater doesn’t rule out showing "Volcanoes of the Deep Sea" in the future, she considers people’s religious views when showing films. The film … Read More

Schiavo Protesters

Ken AshfordAssisited Suicide/Schiavo, Right Wing Punditry/Idiocy6 Comments

Look at the picture on the left of people opposed to the Schiavo tube removal.  This is the kind of protest that, if done by the liberals, would have the right wingers rolling in the aisles, making fun. But I think it is a perfectly fine protest — after all, they got their pictures taken, which means they got their … Read More

O’Reilly Makes Shit Up

Bill O’Reilly on the March 15 edition of Westwood One’s The Radio Factor: O’REILLY: You know, the Founding Fathers didn’t write anything into the Constitution about gay marriage. Because back then, if you were gay, they hung you. So — you couldn’t get married ’cause they put you in the rack. You know, if you were runnin’ around wearing a … Read More
