Well Fiddle-Dee-Dee

2:05 pm EST May 9th, 2006 | Politics | 6 Comments

Sometimes I get the feeling that members of the mainstream press like Richard Cohen get into a huff about someone actually sending them feedback that isn’t laudatory that they just end up sounding like Scarlett from Gone With The Wind complaining about all that war talk.

Fiddle-dee-dee. War, war, war; this war talk’s spoiling all the fun at every party this spring. I get so bored I could scream.

    Not to mention Crybaby Cohen’s somewhat inappropriate use of “lynch mob” as a metaphor.

    But maybe I’m wrong – maybe getting a lot of nasty emails that clogs your inbox is very much like having a rabid crowd come after you with the intention of stringing you up, castrating you, setting your mutilated and tortured body aflame, then taking trophy photographs of the event as a keepsake before they return to their picnic.

    My Dad always liked to talk about a group of people, who, as children, would be wont to say “That’s a goal, or I’m taking my ball home!”. Sound similar?

    Oliver: I find it interesting that you have posted two cautionary tales for the Democrats, and no one, including you, gets it.
    You’ll be waking up on the first Wednesday in November 2006, scratching your heads, saying, “This was supposed to be our year… What went wrong?”

    You know, I’m not going to make any predictions about November. What I am going to say is that if (IF!) democrats do, in fact, do well this year, I really hope that you’ll be honest enough to stop posting. At the very least. Actually, I hope you’ll be honest enough to finally start rehab, but I know that’d be asking too much.

    you ll be honest enough to stop posting
    What in the world does honesty have to do with posting?

    I thought this was “Conservatives post — liberals insult conservatives; liberals post — harangue conservatives for “answers”, then insult conservatives because of their answers.”

    Where does honesty come in?

    Still want me to go to China, the Socialist Workers’ Paradise — like Massachusetts, but lower taxes?

    Hold on to that comment, Oliver, I’ll pick it up later…
    What am I on 30 minute delay, like Howard Stern or somebody?
