well how about that

at some point in his twilight wfbuckley was on that "uncommon knowledge" show that's advertised all over the site and was wearily advocating pot legalization. the other guest was christopher hitchens or someone and the dumb-puppy host (look at his expression in the banner ad) kept glancing from hitch to buckley and from buckley to hitch and from the two of them to his notes with a totally lost expression as if he was waiting for someone to explain why the "conservative" wasn't being "conservative"

The puppy dog wrote Reagan's tear-down-this-wall speech.

pretty impressed that most of the comments on that story are in agreement but i guess internet rightists trend libertarian.

xpost oh huh! tear down this wall isn't bad actually but it's not as good as BUT WE HAVE NEVA HAD TO PUTTA WALLLLLLLL UP TO KEEP OWR PEOPLE IN

mr gorbachev, legalize this pot

you think the RUSSIANS allow DOPE? no, GODDAMN it, john, they ROOT IT OUT!

that 'where do we put the sidewalks' article is interesting because it feels like the first time in a while i've heard a right-winger acknowledge that they're kind of pushing against the tide on a lot of social issues. you can hear him kind of throw up his hands here:

For instance, the state’s interest in childrearing could be used to justify making our divorce laws much less liberal (which I could endorse), but it is impossible to imagine the citizens of this country choosing to return to the divorce rules that obtained before no-fault.

their quibble isn't really with 'the left' so much as it is the supposed moral decline of, um, everybody.

lots of the comments on the sidewalks article say "but what if people are walking off a cliff? do you put the sidewalks up THEN?" and like why would people walk off a cliff? so yeah idk what happened to the moral majority.

this thread is reminding me, I want to smoke weed and listen to music

too bad, hippy

Where to begin?

well…

forms of sexual conduct that were traditionally regarded in the West and many other places as beneath the dignity of human beings as free and rational creatures

democracy and assfucking, dude

xpost -- that's one terrible first date.

which hipster band will release an EP named "Democracy and Assfucking" first

also

It’s bad that it happened — bad for the party and bad for the state and nation. But if it was going to happen, it is better that it happened by the actions of the people’s elected representatives, and not by the fiat of judges pretending to be enforcing constitutional guarantees while, in truth, usurping democratic legislative authority

yes, because in our political system judges don't have any authority to check or balance the validity of the laws made by the legislature, so if courts overturn laws they must be USURPING argh. would love to hear this assclown offer an opinion about what was wrong with the legal reasoning in the court decisions in massachusetts or iowa.

Andrew Cuomo and Mayor Michael Bloomberg, the state’s two most powerful and influential politicians, plainly buy much, if not all, of the ideology of sexual liberalism and publicly lead their lives in accordance with it. Although they claim to be supporters of marriage who merely want to “expand” the institution (or expand “access” to the institution) out of respect for what they regard as the civil rights of people to have their romantic partnerships (whatever their shape) recognized and legitimated by the state, both are reported by New York media to openly cohabit with women with whom they are not married.

surprised that even k-lo could sit thru that blowhard's interminable "answers"

well, they were straight up boilerplate, probably soothing to her

Have we posted this bit where ghost rider has a bit of fun with the NRO implosion?

All of this is terribly entertaining -- like watching Mom and Dad fight, if you didn't like your parents, and one of them was kind of dumb.

she cannot be serious

That pic is very Tangina. ALL ARE WELCOME IN THE LIGHT.

I mean, I know she is, but COME ON

oh god i'm getting a damn hernia over here

You guys are cruel. Look at the hair coyly covering one demure, powder-kissed cheek.

His rod and his staff, they comfort her.

booming post

so to speak

We'll need a new thread soon, what with K-Lo photos and rods an extra burden.

i just cannot stop laughing @ that.

oh you poor thing. you poor stupid dumb idiot clueless desperate bigoted hateful thing.

never stop, kathryn lopez

at least now we know how the dog was able to get to her hair

Isn't she the Duran Duran fan on that site? She must watch the early videos very...carefully.

at least now we know how the dog was able to get to her hair

sorta gives "Hungry Like the Wolf" a new meaning

okay mad respect

I can't laugh at work like this! Argh.

woah woah woah k-lo's a durannie? are we sure she's not a certain former ilxor?

Hahah no, I thought of that but no.

it would make sense sorta - she was one of the more likeable/tolerable rightwingers ilx has seen and k-lo's far from the worst of the bunch at nro

I dunno, blount -- she's the witch whose honeyed words persuade you to step into the oven.

wait - k-lo's a durranie and balls is a certain former ilxor? now my head is spinning

o i'm not defending k-lo (except for entertainment purposes), i'm just saying i can't begin to compare the contempt i feel for her to what i feel for jonah goldberg.

does anyone think there's any actual potential for a rift here? following ny i saw some (generally younger, and not all the predictable libertarian type either) repubs saying 'look this battle is over, this issue is costing us votes as much as it gets us votes and its only gonna get worse, we need to move on and get on the right side of history' and then of course other repubs beating the 'I SAW A LADY GET CALLED DADDY - JUST LIKE IN NORTH KOREA' drum. the social republicans definitely seem at risk of getting left behind (even if say romney has to balance his ticket it's with a bachmann type, not a santorum)(i do wonder how different it would be w/ huckabee in there), gay marriage has been (w/ pot legalization) the issue a conservative is most likely to get away w/ heresy on (limbaugh's been willing to toss it out as an example of an issue he's not a party hack about, and palin's tip-toed around it enough that it wouldn't shock to see her endorse it eventually).
