This is why I want ABL posting here. This is why I think she is a great blogger:
“Apparently, Negroes hugging is the lesser known fifth horseman of the apocalypse.”
She makes me laugh out loud when I read her stuff, and if you didn’t snort when you read that, well, wtf is wrong with you?

But she used a form of the N word… Isn’t that like a secret joke handshake where I shouldn’t laugh if I’m white? Did I mention I’m incredibly white?

@S. cerevisiae: I gotta say, your women’s team went down fighting on Saturday. I didn’t think they had two games like that in them, but my fingernails were gone by the end of that final. I may not like that team, but they can say that the ended their season playing the best fucking game they could.
Now, a win on Saturday and we can end not only your season, but also that of the Fighting Whioux. Though, I’ll laugh my fucking ass off if their band shows up in the jerseys with the Sioux logo and they forfeit. That would be worth not getting to see a game.

I love the ad on the left side of the page as I’m typing this, some crap by Grover Norquist and someone named “John R. Lott, Jr.” about “Obama’s War on Jobs and Growth and blah blah blah”.

ABL is teh awesome. I’ve said it to her and I’ll say it here, she is performing a ministry to the unintentional white honkeys. Her voice is that reminder that many of us need that this society is not fair and there is another way of looking at things.
I know ABL challenges some of the MRAs but they should be challenged. Kudos to ABL for standing up for herself and kudos to John Cole for keeping her on board.

I’ve laughed out loud when I’ve read some of her stuff, but that’s probably because I spend lots of time with black folks who aren’t LA lawyers. Big fucking deal! She spent months here encouraging ridiculously toxic shit from…uh…douchebags with small minds.

All due props to ABL, I think it might just be the “hugging” part that got them. “Two people embracing each other, as if they were being affectionate! That’s never happened to me! It must be some secret socialist code.” Of course, that’s not to discount the presence of two colored folk chatting with each other, which every good conservative knows is the precursor to the Great Race War of

I especially loved this:
“…..it’s not like i knew her, or we hung out every day, or braided each other’s hair or anything….”

all of this nonsense about the tape makes me really wonder if we’re being punked.

Still snorting…two hours later. That is comedic gold right there. I like the snarkier ABL 2.0.

Hello there, sweetness. I’m very well, although Spokane has been pummeled by torrential rain all day (very localized – you may not have gotten it all the way up where you are).
What have you been cooking? How the hell are you?
Yutsano
@Sarah Proud and Tall: I posted it one thread down, it’s near the bottom. The cook who showed me this recipe is like Bob Ross for foodies. Plus any excuse to cook baby sheep is worth it to me. Although I know that tends to send you into hysterics.
I’m pretty darn good, a little annoyed because there’s a position I’m qualified for that I have to let pass for now because of my upcoming convalescence. But at least all the paperwork is in for me to be absent for six weeks.

@piratedan: Thanks. I think I’ll be just fine. My doc is one of the top in the field at this and he’s pretty enthusiastic for success. I just want to stand upright again.
@Sarah Proud and Tall: I’m almost certain this opportunity will arise again. It all depends on budgeting. Which is a total mishegas right now. Fucking Congress.

Y’all should totally shack up and make balloon babies the caramel shade of El Presidente. T’would be awesome.
And that hugging line is going to make me giggle for a good long time. If this is their effort to distract people from the birth control stuff it’s A) not going to work, and B) even if it did, it would only be slightly less stupid, and would do them little good. So let the freakout commence!! Nobody but the choir bought into that William Ayers shit the last time, and nobody but them will buy into it now.
runt
I guess it’s because I’m a Yuropean communo-fascist, but I’m completely stumped by this one. What exactly do the wingers think they have caught Obama doing here? Speaking while black? Having gay sex in public?
I just don’t get it. I can’t imagine what they think they see.

Agreed. I don’t get it either.

They see two black men who are obviously allies, so they must be conspiring to overthrow the whites. As they do.

I like ABL, but the phrase “lesser [or “little”] known fifth horseman of the apocalypse” is a worn-out phrase that one should use only if he or she coined it. I snorted a few years ago, the first time I read.
Sorry for the golden shower on the love-parade. (And I really do love ABL!)

again, if you want to understand republicans, first understand evolution.
its impossible for organic conservatives to conceive of order outside of social dominance order.
they believe that if they can glue Alinsky’s ideas onto Barack Obama that will defeat Obama. Just like they believe that if they were allowed to glue rev. wrights ideolgy onto Obama he would have lost in 2008.
The only reality is evolution.
The evolution of the demographic timer and the RAE (Rising American Electorate).
Nate hatez meh sayin this cuz it fucks up the horserace………..but……..demographics is destiny.
