Fuck Everybody

You know what, fuck Jon Stewart. His routine had become stale years ago and his interviews morphed into embarrassing suck-offs of right-wing icons notable for their utter stupidity, like Bill Kristol.

And you know what else? Fuck Stephen Colbert for asking Debra Dickerson--the woman who asserted that Obama wasn't "black enough"--back on his show and then giving her a platform to bash the Clintons. She looked like just another smug "intellectual" who can't prove the title by anything coming out of her mouth. Her act is all Cheshire Cat grins and half accusations--she plays the race card...then takes it back...then plays it again: "It's not fair to say that Obama will win the black vote in SC. As a black person, I wouldn't vote for Hillary Clinton. Only racists think black people would vote for a black candidate."

Also, fuck Colbert for playing footage of the Democratic debate from SC and then announcing that the winner, presumably because of all the arguing among the candidates, was the "Republican Party." You're right, Stephen: I cry myself to sleep at night wishing that the Democrats could learn to get along, because until we truly love one another we can't really embrace our Republican opponents. Good point. Shut up.

And fuck the round-heeled liberals on Talking Points Memo, beginning with Joshua Micah Marshall's pretentious ass. First he insightfully critiqued the Obama supporters' outrage at Hillary Clinton as being based solely on the Obama camp's delusion that he somehow transcends politics and thus must never be attacked or even challenged--God is not mocked! But then, Marshall turns around and allows bullshit headlines like "Hillary Flies Out of SC After Defeat" to go up on his site. Inquiring minds want to know, Mr. Marshall, sir: should she have canoed out of SC? You tell me, because I don't get what point you think you made.

If Democrats, in general and as represented on TV and on the internet, don't want to do politics, then they should stay home and take drugs. These people apparently wish they lived in a special, more spiritual and less gritty world, and I think they should go there. Leave the engine running and the doors closed.

But if they want to do politics, then they need to grow up and dig in with both hands. This St. Barack horseshit is unacceptable.

Finally: When Clinton wins NY, CA, and FL (well, as much as anyone can "win" FL), and thus all but ends the contest for the nomination, will anyone in the media revisit SC and note how irrelevant this whole week of coverage was?
