Allahpundit to The New York Times:

How does it feel to have the credibility of your reporting disparaged by, ahem, The New Republic?

Good question.

But they may be too busy scrambling for readers to come up with much of an answer to that.

Scrambling for readers?

You've got 4 comments on your last 10 posts.

Pot, meet kettle.

I wouldn't be too worried about your stage fright concerning your "hits."

If you're not generating discussion, you don't matter.

Cheers!

If you're elevating this blog to the point that you expect it to contain "all the news that's fit to print," and are really going to compare it to an institution with the prestige of The Gray Lady, I'm sincerely flattered.

Thank you.

This blog has, after all, much more modest payroll costs than the average metropolitan daily.

But I do like "pot, meet kettle." You should start a blog!

Shows you what you know! LMA readers communicate telepathically. Besides, when you say something perfectly, there's not much to add: Unless you're an asshole or a sycophant. I'm both.

RIP!

Posted by: Darrell at February 21, 2008 08:43 PM


Ah, Darrell: you're neither an asshole nor a syncophant. You're a sweetheart.

And you know I'm not going to ban him unless he says something really, really naughty. And it difficult to do that around here . . .

Posted by: Attila Girl at February 21, 2008 08:45 PM


I'd like to purchase some editing, please.

Change "Show" to "Shows" (above)

Thanks! Invoice me later.

Intelligent, logical, and succinct writers have reader; the rest have commenters.

The monkeys just got their strike-settlement ration of gin

Posted by: Darrell at February 21, 2008 10:25 PM


Wow.

I equaled your 10-post comment total commenting on one idiot thread.

Though two of those comments were yours.

And two were of some sycophant named Darrell.

That's sycophant, not syncophant, dear AG.

Ol' Darrell Cunnilingus had it right.

And how do you know I'm a him?

I'm the savior of the Attila Girl blog!

Shoot me.

Posted by: comsympinko at February 21, 2008 10:30 PM


OK.

Posted by: Darrell at February 21, 2008 10:31 PM


Darrell--

I can only infer that your response indicates that you'd be happy to shoot me.

Hyperbole (look it up) being beyond your realm of understanding, I merely hope that if you were to feel it necessary to shoot someone over their political beliefs that you'd be hanged from a gallows built from the wood of your gunstock.

Pathetic helpless douchebag wretch.

Cheers!

Posted by: comsympinko at February 21, 2008 11:04 PM


I'm awash in attention; it makes me feel all special . . .

Though this guy's trolling makes me long for Azmat, who at least has points. And those guys who call me a "slut," because they come up with interesting phrases and bring up quaint concepts.

Say the word, D.

Posted by: Attila Girl at February 21, 2008 11:08 PM


Did you not ask to be shot?

Make up your mind, man-woman!

Besides "Up against the wall, mo'fkr" is from your crowd, no?
Or did you think that Frank Zappa(look it up)just made it up?

Posted by: Darrell at February 21, 2008 11:21 PM


Again, I wonder how you've determined that I'm a man.

A "guy."

You demean our gender by your cavalier dismissal of our ability to fuck shit up.

You've already complimented me on my "pot, meet kettle" legerdemain.

Can you define legerdemain?

Yourself and your Gollum Darrell are so pointless as to be the polar opposite of M. George-Pierre Seurat.

Pointless. Seurat.

Again, if you can't define it, look it up.

Bonne nuit!

Darrell--

Metaphor is so beyond your Neanderthal knuckle-dragging type.

Yes.

Shoot me.

Please.

I'm begging you to end my happily married millionaire life.

AG--

Wow.

Multi-multi comments.

This is more action than you've gotten in years.

I'd ask to be shot again, but it's just you and Darrell Cunnilingus.

I'll take my chances.

Posted by: comsympinko at February 21, 2008 11:27 PM


Darrell-

Good work.

A few extra comments got through before I was fully able to rebut.

Five? Six? 6,000?

No number of sequentially ordered comments could surmount the routine idiocy of this blog's author and sole enabling commenter.

Good evening.

Cheers.

Posted by: comsympinko at February 21, 2008 11:34 PM


Communist/Sympathizer/Pinko,

Most people just assume an asshole to be a male. That might explain a lot in your life. Or lack thereof.

Posted by: Darrell at February 21, 2008 11:34 PM


Gee, an "enabler"!
I'm honored!
Now isn't it past your bedtime?
Hit that tip button to your left on the way out. You should be familiar with the Left, no?

Posted by: Darrell at February 21, 2008 11:41 PM


Darrell--

Fabulous.

I'll anxiously be waiting for your clarion definition of male/female roles.

In the meantime, you're still a Neanderthal 1300 cc brain-stem rudiment allied with a woman whose sole goal is to crush her own gender under an avalanche of white male stupidity.

You go, Darwinian failure!

Posted by: comsympinko at February 21, 2008 11:41 PM


Okay, I admit it: you've now piqued my interest. How do you determine my intent to "crush" my own gender? I understand "white male stupidity," of course: that would be any strain of thought consistent with either a free market or some semblence of national defense.

But I'm not quite getting this purported anti-female bias. Aren't you thinking of the left-wing apologists for Sharia law?

Posted by: Attila Girl at February 21, 2008 11:49 PM


That's "God" failure, and I did that part all by myself. Just like you.

Fine, have it your way! You're a female asshole.

Posted by: Darrell at February 21, 2008 11:50 PM


Darrell--

Communist/Sympathizer/Pinko.

You're a fucking genius.

I want the American worker to own their means of production.

I want the American worker to live without fear that their job will be transferred to Micronesia.

I want the American worker to work one job and be able to provide for their house, picket fence and 1.8 children.

If this makes me a Communist/Sympathizer/Pinko, I'll never be prouder,

Posted by: comsympinko at February 21, 2008 11:50 PM


AG--

If you don't understand how your brand of hate diminishes women everywhere, I can't help you.

You are a soulless GOP hag.

GOPspeed.

Posted by: comsympinko at February 21, 2008 11:53 PM


Um. CSP. You did choose that handle, didn't you? What would you suggest as the polite form of address, other than "troll of indeterminate gender, but harboring pronounced animus"?

Posted by: Attila Girl at February 21, 2008 11:56 PM


AG--

Sharia Law is an abomination.

Even a retard like you should understand that I want nothing of the sort.

Read Leviticus and see what the Fundies want for this "Christian" nation.

You want to be sold by your male relatives?

You want to be stoned for being raped?

You want to die for eating a scallop?

Its all in there.

Just like sharia.

Rule be Christian religion is rule by discredited Stone Age philosophy.

The only thing that would be more disgusting is rule by the Bronze Age philosophy of the Muslim religion.

Actually, Levitical law is Jewish, not Christian. You're getting into parts of the Bible that require contextual reading. Are you ready for that?

I'd hate to see you bite off more than you can chew, Girl.

Posted by: Attila Girl at February 22, 2008 12:04 AM


Last I checked the Old Testament is the majority of the Christian Bible from which we derive the Ten Commandments, the prophesy of Moses, the prophesy of Isaiah and the prophesy of Elijah.

And from which we derive the rest of the laws of the Israelites.

If these laws are blaspheme to the Biblical Christian, I'd certainly like to hear your dismissal of the pillars of Western Civilization.

Posted by: comsympinko at February 22, 2008 12:11 AM


AG--

Girl? GIRL????

How do you know I'm not a man?

Posted by: comsympinko at February 22, 2008 12:12 AM


AG--

Contextual reading???

Do you not recognize the unerring truth of the Bible???

The word of God cannot be interpreted by mere mortals.

Each word is as important as the next. Maybe even more so!

Context? Seriously?

BLASPHEMER!!!

Posted by: comsympinko at February 22, 2008 12:15 AM


Hm. "Blasphemy"? Where did that come from?


I'm still interested in hearing more about my brand of "hate."

And how I "demean" women.

Your comments are like those little cars packed with, as they say, "1000 Clowns." There's so much there, and it's an interesting little window into your mind.

Pray continue.

Posted by: Attila Girl at February 22, 2008 12:17 AM


The hate against women I've described is the direct derivation of the lessons we're taught by the Old Testament.

And the New Testament.

Read Leviticus again. And Kings. And Matthew. And Acts. And the epistles of Paul.

Read them carefully.

You'll see the subjugation of your gender in a whole new light.

It is all in there. I swear.

Posted by: comsympinko at February 22, 2008 12:24 AM


If you disagree with the crimes and punishments proscribed in these holy texts... you blaspheme.

End of story.

I blaspheme.

I love it.

You, I'm sure not so much.

You probably derive your simplistic Manichean world from the Good Book.

You also blaspheme.

Good? Evil? One cannot exist without the other, and neither is an absolute.

Gad and Satan. Jesus and Judas. Each makes the other necessary.

Sweet dreams.

Posted by: comsympinko at February 22, 2008 12:30 AM


If you want to look for sexism in the Old Testament, that would be too easy. Ditto Paul's epistles.

If you want a challenge, however, you'll find me examples of subjection of women in the New Testament that aren't due to the conditions of the times.

If you want a "A" in the course, find me specific examples of sexism by Jesus.

"It's all there"? Show me.

Posted by: Attila Girl at February 22, 2008 12:33 AM


It's been a sick pleasure geometrically multiplying your comment numbers.

TTFN.

Cheers.

"I loved her like Judas loved Jesus.

O do not be surprised; his mad love for our Lord

It makes one

dizzy dizzy dizzy dizzy

Judas was the true diver, plunging into the arms of God's fated Son,

Illustrating the drawbacks of homosexual love."

—Patti Smith

(This will be off by a word or two, here or there. I refused to Google it, and I haven't read the poem in 20 or 30 years.)

Comsympinkotrollbot:

Get a life.

You know why she doesn't get a million comments like the places you likely hang out when you aren't trolling?
Here's my reason: I don't have anything to add to what she says; most of us aren't the kind of brain-dead zombies you libtards are, where you say stupid crap like "first!" or "ZOMG that is so true!!!"

Of course, now I have something to say, because you, little pipsqueak, look like a great late-night snack.

Die in a fire. Really. Not hyperbole.

Posted by: Beth at February 22, 2008 12:38 AM


Can't resist:

For I am come to set a man at variance against his father, and the daughter against her mother, and the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law (Matthew 10:35-6).

Woman, what have I to do with thee? (John:21-4)

Who is my mother? And who are my brethren? (Matthew:12:46-49)

Then saith he to his servants, The wedding is ready, but they which were bidden were not worthy. Go ye therefore unto the highways, and as many as ye shall find, bid them to the marriage. (Matthew 8-9)

Not to mention...

And when the time of the fruit drew near, he sent his servants to the husbandmen, that they might receive the fruits of it.
And the husbandman took his servants and beat one, and killed another, and stoned another.
Again, he sent other servants more than the first; and they did unto him likewise.
But when the husbandmen saw the son, they said amongst themselves, This is the heir; come, let us kill him, and let us seize his inheritance.
And they caught him, and cast him out of hre vineyard, and slew him.
When the lord therefore of the lord of the vineyard cometh, what will he do unto those husbandmen? (Matthew 34-40)

Good Book, indeed.

Posted by: comsympinko at February 22, 2008 01:03 AM


Beth--

Good Christian love as defined in the above passages.

Gotta love it.

I'll try to avoid fire, though.

It really hurts.

If the husbandman comes for me, I guess my time is up.

God Bless You and Keep You.

Posted by: comsympinko at February 22, 2008 01:07 AM


CSP:

There was a lot of drama in the quoted passages, but not as much overt sexism as I was hoping for.

Can you do better?

Posted by: Attila Girl at February 22, 2008 01:09 AM


First chapter omission (Matthew 22:8-9)

Second chapter omission (Matthew 21: 34-40)

I continue to keep you in my prayers, Beth.

Posted by: comsympinko at February 22, 2008 01:13 AM


AG

I guess when you are bidden to wed and you are not found worthy your prospective mate will go unto the highways to replace you.

That's pretty fucking sexist.

Posted by: comsympinko at February 22, 2008 01:16 AM


Or it might just be the market at work . . .

Shoot me. Please. I'm begging you to end my happily married millionaire life.

Heh. Methinks Bre'r Rabbit doth protest too much. No, no, Bre'r Fox, don't throw me in the briar patch!

First off, I doubt you have a happily married millionaire life. If you did, you'd have something, ummm, better, to do with your time. You know, like make points and not troll.

Second off, as much as you seem to want to be shot (in the head?) in my not so humble opinion that would be a waste of perfectly good ammunition. I might spare a wet noodle, but that's about as far as it goes. Even that would be a waste of a wet noodle.

Thirdly, why I am not surprised that you're befuddled by parables, non-literal stories used to illustrate a point? I'd explain the Matthew passage about the vineyard, but I'm afraid it would *swoosh* right past your head.

Posted by: I R A Darth Aggie at February 22, 2008 09:44 AM


"you'd be hanged from a gallows built from the wood of your gunstock"

I'd be scared if I were Ken--Barbie's ex. Otherwise, not much wood to work with! Assuming I had wood stocks, of course.

"I want the American worker to own their means of production."

Well then, go out and BUY that falafel wagon! Why wait? You aren't getting any younger, you know! The American Dream is there for the taking!

Posted by: Darrell at February 22, 2008 12:53 PM

I dunno...I think she likely smells of patchouli, perhaps elderberries, and is probably scrawny and tough. A lot of work for not much meat that don't taste too good.

I'd rather have a nice Brunswick stew.

About Joy W. McCann: I've been interviewed for Le Monde and mentioned on Fox News. I once did a segment for CNN on "Women and Guns," and this blog is periodically featured on the New York Times' blog list. My writing here has been quoted in California Lawyer. I've appeared on The Glenn and Helen Show. Oh—and Tammy Bruce once bought me breakfast.
My writing has appeared in
The Noise, Handguns, Sports Afield, The American Spectator, and (it's a long story) L.A. Parent. This is my main blog, though I'm also an alumnus of Dean's World, and I help out on the weekends at Right Wing News.
My political philosophy is quite simple: I'm a classical liberal. In our Orwellian times, that makes me a conservative, though one of a decidedly libertarian bent.
