The President Has Become a Divisive Figure
Compare his start with George W. Bush’s.
By KARL ROVE

I jammed on the brakes when I saw the byline and immediately started laughing so hard I was afraid I was going to pop a tonsil.  Let me know if you fared any better. I have endured volumes of wretched rightwing garbage since I started blogging years ago but even I have my limits.

MORE: Now that sending tea bags to members of Congress has become all the rage, should we organize and get people to send douche bags to loathsome megaphone-wielding nutters like Rove, Glenn Beck and Rush Limbaugh who are fueling this divisiveness?

Just send a case of Massengill to Eric Odom

I think that’s a wonderful idea. And the sheer effrontery of Rove, who spent 8 years impugning the patriotism of anyone who questioned Bush, calling Obama divisive! It’s like Bernie Madoff accusing someone else of greed.

Without reading the article, I think what Pudgy McLonghorn is trying to say is that he’s divided the country between the 73% of thoughtful, intelligent voters who want a better direction, and the 27% of ignorant, uneducated wingnuts who still think Dubya was pretty freaking awesome.

Unfortunately, the media still insists on portraying this as a 51/49 kind of fight.  It’s stupid and wrong, but I guess they have to appeal to those brainless middle-aged folk who flip to the news when they’re not watching Judge Judy.

PUMAs?

Sending douche bags has an undeniable Abbie Hoffman feel to it. I say let’s go for it.

We should go viral with this. Wonkette link-up?

Yes, the President has become a divisive figure... among Republicans.

Now that sending tea bags to members of Congress has become all the rage, should we organize and get people to send douche bags to loathsome megaphone-wielding nutters like Rove, Glenn Beck and Rush Limbaugh

Isn’t that like sending coal to Newcastle?

Personally, I am tired of all the bad news and hate-mongering. Whatever happened to make love, not war?

The only problem with sending douche bags to Limbaugh, Beck, or Rove is that they will simply be tossed out with no publicity.

A better way to do it would be to unload a semi truck full of douche bags in front of the Fox News headquarters.

A flair for the theatrical! Costly, but definitely impactful.

Otter: Dead! Bluto’s right. Psychotic, but absolutely right. We gotta take these bastards. Now we could do it with conventional weapons that could take years and cost millions of lives. No, I think we have to go all out. I think that this situation absolutely requires a really futile and stupid gesture be done on somebody’s part.
Bluto: We’re just the guys to do it.
D-Day: Let’s do it.
Bluto: *Let’s do it*!

This could so explode right now. The planets are aligned - Kos, Wonkette, Balloon Juice, SadlyNo!, etc. are all front-paging the teabag nonsense today. A few well-placed suggestions could blow it wide open.

Can we call it “the Massengill Movement”?

Trying to ooze his way back into relevancy, the great and mighty Turdblossom farts forth greenish clouds of “political genius”, to be eagerly inhaled and savored by the angry, white and privileged demographic.  Forget the douchebags, we should send him a metric ton of table salt.  With any luck, the gelatinous albino fuckwit will wither and dissolve.

Personally, I think Rush needs Monistat 365.

Flounder: can I have 10,000 douchebags, please?

The idea would be to unload the douches in front of the intended target, do a little stunt for the assembled media, then load the douches back up and take them to a womens’ shelter.  Then it can be written off as a donation.

A better idea wis to ship real douche bags—i.e. the 30-40 remaining PUMAs—to Congress.

It’s a twofer: they’ll almost certainly be euthanized and, more importantly, a message will have been sent.

Win-win!

Funny! I was remembering the very same scene.

KING: How do you feel personally when you — you see the ratings and the polls that — and have you at 25, 30 percent…

BUSH: I don’t give a darn. I feel the same way as when they had me at 90 plus.

KING: The same?

BUSH: Yes, look it — these opinion polls are nothing but a, you know, a shot of yesterday’s news.

Fuck off, Karl Rove.

What a freaking joke!
I think the difference in numbers can be accounted for with attitude.  When Bush won the election, the democrats still tried to work with him and see his point of view.
When Obama won, most republicans went bat-shit crazy and just wanted to c*ck-block everything.  This is what I would call MAD, mutually assured destruction (like the nuclear weapons deal).

Perhaps a more fitting (and family friendly) demonstration would be to deliver a truckload of pacifiers to the RNC.

You know, ‘cause they’re crybabies.

Please don’t give these people anymore publicity, there is a reason many of their sites don’t have working administrators or comments sections…they couldn’t handle the outright rage that would flytowards them.  This passes the THRESHOLD; you know the one where the outrage for an act exceeds the interest in the act itself…don’t bless turdblossom with anymore mistaken stumbles into PR genius.  Seriously we’re upset over a crazy preacher preaching to the constituent chorus the size of a stripmall Holiness church…

I don’t know about you but here in NC their constituency (crazed paultardic rural route dirtroad encompassed fire ditrict militiamen)is dropping day by day.  I’ve never seen this many scared, paranoid white guys killin cops since…um never.

I’m on board.

There will be a tea-bag party in Sacramento and Neil Cavuto will be broadcasting from there.  I think “douchebagging” is the perfect counter-protest.

I suggest we enlist Sasha Baron Cohen, who’s hyping his Bruno project, for a media frontman.  It’s a perfect fit for him.  Clueless and misinformed Bruno shows up at a tea-bag party wearing a douchebag.  “Let’s clean out Washington!”

ROFLMAO!!!!

Now the douche bag idea is good, but you can get a Fleet’s enema for about 1/2 the price.

I can’t believe no one has yet suggested sending a metric fuckton of loofahs to Bill O’Reilly.
