Thin-skinned WND douchebag to sue Esquire, doesn't understand parody/satire law is fairly settled.

It's not the founding fathers these dudes love, it's the romantic idea of the founding fathers, which absolves them of responsibility for the present. What did the founding fathers think about the income tax, health care, abortion, oil, war in the middle east, etc? Pretty much nothing.

well hasn't that always been the thing with these dorks? strict constitutionalists that also like to bloviate about what the founders would have thought about modern developments. it's like one or the other, guys

hitchens evisceration of mamets book is pretty good but even funnier than hitch's review are the actual quotes from the book, such as

"The BP gulf oil leak . . . was bad. The leak of thousands of classified military documents by Julian Assange on WikiLeaks was good. Why?"

shockingly, wingnutdaily "op-ed" begins: "I know this sounds crazy."

Yet, all it would take is for one state to recognize that – real or fraudulent – the document he released affirms he does not meet the requirements of a "natural born citizen." In fact, he is a walking, talking, breathing example of what a "natural born citizen" is not – complete with the dual loyalties the founders feared.

everything they've listed so far could be knocked out in an afternoon

lets be fair given the parenting that leads to sending your kids to something like this odds are the kids will be a little slow

If I were as prone to sloganizing as Mamet, I’d keep clear of bumper-sticker comparisons altogether.

I wonder what a smart but mislead writer like Mamet thinks about being taken down by an equally smart writer who a) can't be easily dismissed as an idiot and b) can't be dismissed a mere ideological analog? I bet a Mamet response would be predictably bellicose, but surely he'd recognize, at least privately, that he just got his ass kicked in public.

otm and the moment I finished the Hitchens review I googled around to see if Mamet had responded. Hitchens was the perfect person to get to review that book.

Mamet is crazy and will continue to be crazy.

Know what else the founders feared? Getting sick and going to the doctor and HAVING LEECHES SUCK OUT THEIR BLOOD. Also smallpox, scurvy, and baths.

Get a life, lib dopes. There's nothing wrong with laughing at some well-written n|i|gger jokes.

Semper Fi!

not interesting in and of itself, but evidence that the PUA-dudebro and basic 'conservative' webworlds are well connected

Why the hell would you link to that from a political blog and reference PUA unless you have some weird thing about women?

The right has some weird thing about women.

FYI

What the hell?? John McCain blames the illegals for the wildfires in AZ...

http://tpmmuckraker.talkingpointsmemo.com/2011/06/sovereign_citizen_thrown_out_of_pizza_chain_bankru.php

The case centers around Giordano's owner John Apostolou, who was forced to give up his control of the pizza chain, which he's owned since 1988, after his businesses fell into $45.5 million worth of debt. The chain has been under bankruptcy protection since February, but Apostolou only lost control after he submitted some court filings in the style of the sovereign citizen movement. One filing declared that Apostolous and his wife are "American Freemen, free inhabitants of the Illinois state, and we find it impossible to obtain State declared Legal Tender at Law." They also said they don't believe in U.S. currency or the legal system, typical beliefs of sovereign citizens, who generally consider almost all branches of the U.S. government to be illegitimate.

I LOVE THESE GUYS

when can we a pynchon book about these effing wackos

I knew their pizza was wrong somehow!

What did people pay for their pizza with? Was it some kind of barter system?

omg Girodano's!

so, reading into this a little, the pizza man, in dire straits, did some up some 'halp with taxes' searches on the internet, and ran into the sovereign dudes, and then hired one?

yeah, seems like it

iirc something similar happened to wesley snipes, though i dont think it was specifically a sovcit type

You don't need to google the truth.

LOL:

The rules set up by Mall of America officials for Sarah and Bristol Palin's book signing yesterday seemed to have been written in anticipation of an army of fans.

"'Camping out' is not allowed," the rules read. "Beginning at 5 a.m., guests will be allowed to line up."

But there was no teeming crowd of rabid Palinites at 5 a.m. And less than a half hour into the appearance of Bristol, Sarah, and Todd Palin, the crowd had dwindled to a trickle of latecomers.

did some up some 'halp with taxes' searches on the internet, and ran into the sovereign dudes, and then hired one

what did he pay with? a hog? goods and services?

Pizza.

does he trade pizzas to his customers?

sign me up for this pizza based economic model

That will be a 50-pizza registration fee, please.

do you take calzones

What are you, some kind of foreigner?

speaking of batshit summer camps:

http://www.npr.org/blogs/money/2011/06/29/137478762/the-tuesday-podcast-libertarian-summer-camp

From one of the first comments:

I've considered myself a Libertarian for many years, but have to say that I found their views a bit extreme. I didn't know that there were some branches of Libertarianism that were against government regulating food or medicine safety.

iow, I've been calling myself a libertarian because it sounds nice, but I have never taken the slightest effort to discover what "libertarian" might mean.

when I was in high school, there was maybe a 15-minute window where I thought the concept of libertarianism was worth investigating; those 15 minutes ended when I realized the person I was discussing this with was a disenfranchised just-slightly-short-of-being-racist douche who considered the Civil Rights Act to be an overreach of government

I think that anyone who is an actual Libertarian has to think that! The rest are just enthralled with the romanticism of some ideas, imo

whenever i take that "political compass" test (something i've been doing for what seems like decades now), i wind up deep in left/libertarian territory, between the little "dalai lama" and "nelson mandela" dots.

Economic Left/Right: -4.88
Social Libertarian/Authoritarian: -5.69

this inclined me, once upon a time, to think that i might actually be a libertarian. at least until i found out what actual, real-world "libertarians" were all about. now i have no home. :(

come on yall, there is such a thing as left libertarianism

these dudes are doing pretty good work on the subject

http://bleedingheartlibertarians.com/

I prefer to call that anarcho-communism, myself.

xposts, maybe

Also, anyone who like Nozick is not left-wing.

*likes

Prove I'm a racist...? How about we just quote his own words back at him:

"The traffickers -- these aren't people who take drugs. These are guys by the name D-Money, Smoothie, Shifty," he said. "These type of guys that come from Connecticut and New York. They come up here, they sell their heroin, then they go back home."

He continued: "Incidentally, half the time they impregnate a young, white girl before they leave."

Oh, but he's got a binder full of mug shots that proves it! http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/paul-lepage-binder_us_57bef320e4b085c1ff27e492

“I made the comment that black people are trafficking in our state. Now, ever since I said that comment I’ve been collecting every single drug dealer who has been arrested in our state,” LePage said, adding the man would be welcome to see the binder. (You can hear the exchange on the Portland Press Herald’s website.)

“I don’t ask them to come to Maine and sell their poison, but they come,” LePage said. “And I will tell you that 90-plus percent of those pictures in my book ― and it’s a three-ringed binder ― are black and Hispanic people from Waterbury, Connecticut, the Bronx and Brooklyn.”

followed a few twitter arguments the other day and found a whole scene of right-wing MAGA trans women, fighting with liberal TERFs. weirdest damn thing.

I think we need an updated thread title

yeah just to be able to remember the dang thing

lmao i always search for 'wingery'

I keep misspelling it by going for a different wrong spelling

there's probably a newer thread but i'll be fucked if i can find it

Last night one of my kids said during prayers “thank you hashem for mommy, daddy, (siblings’ names) and Donald Trump and George Washington and Norman Podhoretz.”
