Okay, okay: I’m just going to put up one more schadenfreude post and then I promise it’s back to work. Over at The Corner, John J. Miller writes, “So, it’s pretty clear that Chris Christie won’t be the GOP nominee in 2016, right?”
What follows in the comments is an amazing display of conservative self-torture one-upmanship. Seriously, it’s like a masturbatory, conservative 50 Shades of Grey:
I’d rather vote Ron Paul, and I think Ron Paul is a loon. I’d rather walk through fire. I’d rather not eat for two weeks. I’d rather go skydiving without a parachute.
Yes. Yes I would vote for Ron Paul before Christie too. In fact, I would walk through that fire with you to vote for Paul before I supported Christie.
I would carry the two of you on my back through burning broken glass for this exercise.
To add to the totally justified hyperbole: I would rather nail my hand to a burning building than vote for Christie.
“…then I promise it’s back to work.”
And remind me what it is you do around here, aside from this kind of shit? How many months will it be before you start in on the next election, totally avoiding any political issues that don’t have to do with prominent, easily mocked politicians rather than actual politics?
Can we FINALLY fucking get rid of Paul Constant since the election is over?
PLEASEPLEASEPLEASE!!!!!
Please make the PC/SJR stop. Please.
Please stop reporting on anonymous comments left on other blogs.
For reals, nobody cares about this kind of political coverage here! I’m sick of seeing the same national election crap that’s reported everywhere else, it isn’t why I read Blogtown, and the more of it that Paul Constant spams out, the less I read Blogtown. He doesn’t even work for the Mercury! I can understand letting Dan Savage post here, but please fucking get rid of Paul Constant!!!
Pretty much what the other comments have said. Boom, outta here.
