i really don’t think i can handle much more of this.
Democratic White House hopeful Sen. Hillary Clinton (D-NY) had harsh criticism for the “activist base” of the Democratic Party during a private fundraiser for her campaign, The Huffington Post reports.
“We have been less successful in caucuses because it brings out the activist base of the […]

Hello, my little neglected blog, and any people who may still occasionally check it. Sorry for the prolonged absence, school’s been a bitch and I should actually be working on homework right now, but my brain is tired. And what do we do when we don’t feel like thinking, boys and girls? […]

Anti-abortion activists sometimes use a tactic I call “WTF.” What the fuck? protesting involves going to a place where nobody in their right mind is thinking about abortion, or any sort of hot button issue, and then ruining everyone’s good time by screaming about abortion. You’ve probably run into this: dismembered fetus posters […]

For proof that Charlotte Allen is freaking hilarious and the rest of us are humorless harpies who can’t handle the truth, look no further than this response in her defensive Q-and-A about her catastrophic failure of a WaPo opinion article.
Woodbridge, Va.: Congratulations on a hilarious article. Do you think the hysterical response to […]

Amanda can’t fisk this, but I bet I can (although I admit to being less sure when I got to the bottom of the page and saw the link to page 2).
Long story short: Women, why did we ever give them the vote?
Long story longer: Charlotte Adam just can not stop typing when it comes […]

Amanda points to Rod Dreher’s take on a recent NYT style article about sexed-up wedding dresses. Now this being a New York Time’s slut-shaming style piece, it is of course unintentionally hilarious, trying to mix up the usual fluffy attempts to pass off a super-fabulous wealthy lifestyle as normal (who among us doesn’t get […]

Newspapers make me sad:
A Des Moines woman who refused to take off her top and imitate a Girls Gone Wild video had her cell phone stolen and was assaulted by her tormentors, police said…Four young men are listed as suspects in the case. No arrests have been reported.
Newspapers with comment sections make me sadder:
here […]

Amanda, via Anne, already fisked this but it’s too rich and I couldn’t resist. A 30-something LA-based actor whom you couldn’t pick out of a lineup wants to let the ladies know you’re free to be you. Kind of. He opens by describing the type of woman who can catch his interest:
She […]

A young Republican from Minnesota displays his maturity, his superior reasoning abilities, and yes, even his excellent grasp of his First Amendment rights in this touching story of a man and his fight against oppression.
Cody Hauer has been cited four times in one week for displaying a 13-inch-by-40-inch “Ron Paul Revolution” decal in the rear […]

Chris Jones of Esquire.com says people are boorish, rude and confrontational, a problem he could help solve if only it were still OK to punch people.

This whole thing started — or maybe it ended — with these guys engaging in some ritualistic, Hare Krishna clapping shit…I asked them politely to stop. “Make us,” […]

An Alaskan High School senior has it all figured out:
Abstinence is the only method that should be taught in schools. It is perfectly effective, protective and simple.
By teaching students anything but the most effective means of preventing pregnancy, we are doing them a disservice.
He’s really changed my views; before this, I had no idea that […]

Jessica at Feministing finds another example of my favorite genre: Douchebag On Feminism. In this chapter in our infinite series, feminism has gone too far (dum dum dummmmmmm!)
I happen to speak fluent Douche, so let me translate for you. Blockquotes are Douchy McIssues, italics are translation, regular text is commentary.
So, in this wonderful […]
