(For the rulez, see Obama Golf.)

0. "Hussein"
1. You're smearing Obama as a Muslim!

One stroke. And best of all?!

It really happened, at a blog whose name I am not at liberty to divulge -- perhaps needless to say, the reference was to Saddam Hussein -- because the proprietors are already engaged in fending off a troll infestation, and don't want any more, thank you very much.

NOTE Have I mentioned my fear for the Republic, today?

Can I play?

By herb the verb on Wed, 05/28/2008 - 12:23pm

0.)"Iowa victory lap speech"
1.)"Lap dancers are whores"
2.)"They said Obama is a whore!"

I'm under par!

Do I get bonus points for misogyny?

0. "Hussein"
1. Saddam Hussein was hanged
2. Bwak "Hussein" Obama
3. You want Obama lynched!
4. You're a racist!

That's a birdie because the hole was a par 5 "dog-leg" right. (did you see Saddam's neck after he was hanged?)

Poor taste has never been a barrier...

... to commenting at Corrente, may The God(ess)(e)(s) Of Your Choice be thanked!

But yes, I think it might make sense to introduce more details on the course -- hazards, traps, and so forth -- as well as More Rulez. For example, does Obama Golf include Mulligans? If so, how and why?

I can't believe this CNN headline slipped through the cracks

By rjpjr on Wed, 05/28/2008 - 1:31pm

RNC hits Obama over Auschwitz claim, Obama camp responds

I am outraged that CNN would use the word hit and Obama in the same sentence. This must not be tolerated!

Oh, shit

I just deleted captain brown's latest comment.

Will posterity forgive me? I wonder if it will forgive me if I do it again because I fucking feel like it?

I'd go with your feelings, VL

By lambert on Wed, 05/28/2008 - 5:23pm

Because it's all about feelings, isn't it?

Evidence and reasoning and linky goodness encouraged.

Otherwise, let them writhe beneath the hooves of the Unity Pony!

Shouldn't you delete your references to my posts in order to hide the evidence of your shameful acts?

On NewsHour tonight, FL guy named Katz, on DNC Rules Com-

By jawbone on Wed, 05/28/2008 - 8:22pm

mittee and an Obama proponent, said that he has never seen such enthusiasm for a candidate since 40 years ago, when Robert Kennedy was running..

I was simply stunned that Gwen Ifill did not call him on his suggestion that Obama be assassinated! I mean, RFK had enthusiastic crowds, RFK was assassinated; Obama has enthusiastic crowds, ergo, Obama is preordained to be assassinated.

OMG OMG OMG OMG! Why is this "supporter" of Obama calling for his assassination??? Has he learned nothing? It is forbidden to mention Bobby Kennedy, bcz there is only one thought which might come to the mind of the whacked out weirdos! And a supporter said it. OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG.

Good reading! Favorite quote: What could go wrong?
Beyond war, inflation, the end of the technology/productivity wave, and financial collapse, we think the most potent and short-term threat would be societies demanding a more ‘equitable’ share of wealth.
