Late Night: Billo is a Giant Suppurating Anal Cyst. Oh Yeah, and He Says Some Things about Netroots Nation

Bill O’Reilly says those of us who attended Netroots Nations are the radical far-left who hate America. I was there and by my standards, I met a lot of moderates, and everyone seemed very fond of the Constitution, the Bill of Rights, the protection and advancement of civil liberties, and our wonderful country–its land and waters, its people and animals.

Maybe Bill counts vegans and those who shop organically as radical liberals, because there were some of those at Netroots, along with karaoke singers, poker players,  clergy, small town mayors, law enforcement officials, farmers, stock brokers, lawyers, housewives and househusbands, married couples, living togethers, singles, DILFs and MILFs and sexy seniors, families, pet owners, union members, and the self-employed. It was a huge slice of America (and there were some visitors from other countries too!). We went to panels about No on 1 in Maine and No on Prop 8, torture, the environment, food, Afghanistan, health care; caucuses for states, races and gender identities; political speeches, cocktail parties and movies.

And Bill, you falafel lovin’ necrotic son of gun–with regards to health care reform–Obama said during the campaign that any plan must include a public option, and the majority of the electorate embraced that. Today the mayor of Anchorage, Alaska had this to say:

As elected officials, we are charged with reflecting the will of the community in our decisions, particularly in the absence of compelling data that would supersede that will.

If  Mayor Sullivan can use that logic to veto same-sex marriage in Anchorage, then our congress people and our president can use the same argument to give the American people the public option.

Bill O’Reilly hates everything that really is America. He loves the things that we’ve borrowed from Mussolini.

Lisa I wish you would really express yourself. I feel like you are so holding back from the headline on down.

I love the word suppurating. And necrotic. So glad I had a chance to use them

billo can kiss my ass,

i’m proud to be a liberal – irrc, english king george considered thomas jefferson and the signers of the declaration of independence to be radical liberals.

america was founded on liberal principles. billo needs to learn some forking american history.

I think the suppurating anal cyst is more suitable to Limbaugh, but necrotic is a terrific adjective for BillO.

i think billo wants to prove he is bigger than rush – so of course he would desire a giant suppurating anal cyst just to outdo rush’s

Oh wait. That was had a pynocdial cyst that kept him out of the draft in the 1960s.

I guess having a supparating anal cyst is different from being one. Or using falafel on some poor woman in a shower, for that matter.

“Serpignious” refers to any skin lesion which appears to creep (Latin serpere–hence serpent) or has wavy outlines, like say herpes (which comes from greek herpeton, “creeping animal” )….


RevDeb | Tuesday August 18, 2009 08:18 pm 21

Bill must have mistaken us for those weirdos on the other side of town. Let’s see, our keynotes included Clinton, Valerie Jarrett, Howard Dean, various and sundry congressmen and at least one senator. They had . . . .

BTW, there are not many words that gross me out more than “supparating”.

Not to get all graphic, but according to the Mackris transcript, O’Falafel likes to use vibrators on himself. Is this what makes him a real god-fearing American, and because I don’t, I’m an America-hater?

Oh, and O’Faloofah also likes to have sex with those wild Italian women while his wife stays home pregnant. Is that in the Bill O’Rights?

As the wingnuts are fond of saying, we’re a republic, not a democracy. Of course, they are probably unaware that the implication of this statement is that what they think matters less than what their enlightened representatives in Congress think. “We’re a republic, not a democracy!” hardly seems an apt battle cry for a grassroots mobilization, especially one ostensibly aimed at opposing the will of the majority in Congress.

Here is the recipe for the Elvis “Fools Gold” sammich.

Preheat the oven to 350 F.
Spread butter generously over all sides of a loaf of Italian bread
and bake until evenly brown.
Fry 1 lb lean bacon until crisp and drain on a paper towel.
Slice the bread lengthwise and hollow out the interior.
Fill it with peanut butter and grape jelly layered with the bacon.
Close the loaf and chow.

Day Sleep

I climb the steep stairs to your bed.
You got there first and are curled in slumber.
Folding into the mattress,
I disappear into day sleep.
No dreams, I become no one.
Sometime during my passage into darkness,
you wake, descend and begin doing awake things.
Coffee grinding in the kitchen
moves me onto a cooler place on the pillow.
I begin to dream you are back,
upstairs,
sitting on the edge of the bed,
sliding your hand beneath the sheet
until it moves to meet all of me.

Like Jesus, my back against the mattress,
arms spread out, feet delicately crossed,
I open my eyes to a vision of a huge puzzle
on the ceiling.
White lights outline the curves and borders of each individual shape.
The illuminated puzzle is filled with secret information
to be turned on by the flick of an on/off switch.

Later,
I carefully walk down that narrow,
tightly graded stairway and
sit on your oriental style sofa.
Knocking my head with the flat of my hand
to help retrieve my awareness,
I watched you wipe the counter in the galley kitchen
and, then, place each clean glass
upside down
on the cabinet shelf.

I got up to between 3 and 5 miles a day. I missed that last few days cause I was out of town. Will start again in the morning. It is so hot here that if I don’t get out before eight I can’t go. The most discouraging thing is that I only lost 3 lbs in a month.

geez, we’ve not had broken margins and/or open tags in a long time.


marymccurnin | Tuesday August 18, 2009 09:33 pm 169

I have an herb story. Sort a valerian type story. About eight years ago Ron and I were in Berkeley at an herb store and bought some kava kava root. Ron made some really strong tea for us that night. About an hour later he came in the room told me he was seeing tracers and was tripping. I told him to relax and that he was just anxious and to go back to bed. Shortly there after I joined him on his odyssey. It was a long, creepy night.

You didn’t know kava has psychotropic effects?


marymccurnin | Tuesday August 18, 2009 09:35 pm 171

I didn’t even know I could break margins. I just thought there was an automatic return going on. I promised nevah to break margins again. Does it cause pain to the browser or something?

Not fun. These little valerian root capsules are pretty mild. I’m not fond of the taste, which is why I don’t do the tea. Blech. I have a tendency towards insomnia. What, me worry? Ha.

The only reason I know about it is references in literature… I didn’t know there were any sources in the US, our Drug Warriors being what they are.

I’m pretty sure I could pick it (or a lot of other things) up at an herbalist in Juarez, but I’ll bet it’s on somebody’s verboten list too.

The problem is that that point of view is purvasive inside the beltway among moderates. I saw Jonathan Alter on MSNBC last week with tears of horror in his eyes at the prospect that progressives might scuttle this whole nonsense. Essentially he was saying that liberals who stand their ground will be responsible for untold suffering of widows and orphans if they vote against this bill.


BargainCountertenor | Tuesday August 18, 2009 09:43 pm 185

So sorry. But we weren’t the ones who mis-handled the politics of this whole mess from the outset.

If Barack Obama had not pulled single payer off the table before things began…

If Barack Obama had not insisted upon negotiating with Republicans who can’t (won’t?) negotiate in good faith…

If Barack Obama had stood on principle rather on politics…

If Max Baucus were not a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Health Care machine…

et cetera…


KellyCDenver | Tuesday August 18, 2009 09:48 pm 190

I’ve been mostly avoiding that place for the last 2 years now ever since I found out from a friend (employee there at the time) about WholeCheck’s union stance.

So I only bought fish there, as they have really good fish, mostly ahi I was interested in.

But lo, I found that sashimi grade ahi at Olivers on 6th for the same damn price in June! Been shopping there for my once-per-month ahi fix there, since then. It’s been easy to leave WholeCheck behind and in the dust, and I’m really glad I have done so.

Is anyone following the latest with the “Whole Foods CEO” comments on healthcare reforms?
