Two come to mind: one that starts with “F” and rhymes with “cluck” and “you.”

That’s really all lefty women are good for. Carve a notch!

Since you questioned it, I Googled it, and, yeah, might as well make some constructive use of her body.

Like here in my world, it’s about sport caught tourists.

What a balanced and well-written article. I’m sure it would have looked a lot better with the occasional well-placed misquote, but c’est la vie, I suppose. And of course, a nice side of race-baiting and Israel bashing would have been nice. (C’mon, Rachel! A Zionist/truther conspiracy would have been perfect as a lead-in to the 5th paragraph!) /snark (because the leftist wingnuts who frequent this site probably think that I’m being serious in my critique )

…. but I’m 35 and single. To be honest, I’ve used that tactic before. I’m immersed in intellectual Boston. I could get real crude right now, but I wont. From what I’ve gathered, achance lives a completely different life and is happily married up there in AK. Sometimes, regional colloquialisms can make for good humor.

She will just make up some left-wing smear that will be attributed to you, as the left did to torpedo Rush’s bid for the Rams. It’s a dangerous world out there.

‘Cause that definitely would have been my plan. You just have to pretend you are open to discussing communism as a viable alternative to capitalism, then, voila’!. It’s easy, really.

generational and regional. Anyway, for future reference. In case your ever in the lower 48 and talking to a young woman. I’m going to assume you didnt mean this:

Does jumping bones have the same geographic and regional meaning everywhere? I’ll guess not. Please feel free to tell me I’m wrong old dog.

but only if we could do it face to face and I’d have tried to jump her bones. Best way to deal with lefty women.

Can’t the couple from Brietbart who exposed ACORN be a reporter.

It was certainly going to be a hit piece – which will simply have meant you go in prepared with ground rules.

Ground Rules: No interruptions or you hang up. No filibustering or you hang up. She gets to answer a question for each question she asks you … or you hang up. Record everything, if she disagrees, you hang up.

Post MP3 of interview up as soon as its finished. Or heck, sync-record yourself on webcam answering the questions and YouTube the whole thing.

But then again, saying no and making it clear it’s because you don’t trust any TPM “reporter” to do honest work is pretty cool too.

but most of that was incomprehensible gibberish… And I work in IT with a lot of younger folks.

We (as the older generation) weren’t that vacuous in our twenties, were we? I sure hope not….

Where does she get off calling herself a reporter? Every liberal with an email address or a microphone is all of a sudden a “reporter” these days. (Go over to Daily Kooks and read about the out of work bum who pesters Congressmen and women with a microphone (calling himself a “journalist” of course) and then cries to the other kookettes when the DC police detain him.. it’s hilarious how clueless they are.)

Hey Rachel.. when you read this.. and I know you will.. let me straighten you out, honey. Bestowing a title upon yourself doesn’t make it so. And no reporter.. even a cub reporter.. would ever have any credence after spouting off partisan political crap like you do that is easily accessible all over the internet.

Get this straight: these people want us crushed, destroyed, broken, and begging for mercy. They hate us. They are not shy about hating us. No right-blogger lasts a year without learning it for him or herself.

So don’t take this personally, but butt out. You’re not the one operating openly and under your own name, here.
