Marcy Rocks

This speaks for itself, and in just a couple of minutes crystallizes everything I've been saying about "civility" since, oh, 2003. Via.

That blogger was so uncivil.

Or, that fucking blogger was so fucking uncivil fuckity fuck fuck.

Bizarro world.

I guess March will never be asked back on MSNBS but uncle Pat is highlarioussss.

[Danny Guam]

I could have sworn I typed Marcy.

[Bitter Scribe]

Yes, but Buchanan was speaking figuratively, while Marcy was referring to a real blowjob. That makes Buchanan OK. Anyway, violence is less dirty than sex.

I know all about civility, so don't argue with me or I'll fuck you up the ass with rusty rifle-cleaning equipment.

I think blowjobs are very civil. I mean, "blowjob" is a way more friendly word than "drowning."

[Gummo]

Village "values" in a nutshell.

And I don't think Buchanan was speaking figuratively. Not at all.

[Li'l Innocent]

You're right, Thers. It does say it all.

It's interesting to consider what civility would have passed muster.
How about "prosecuted Bill Clinton for participating in consensual extramarital non-coital erotic practices in private"? Because if you say "affair" (which, if they were non-coital, would be misleading), it gives the story that evil belle epoque grandeur, and makes it sound like something for which an elected public official should be taken sternly to task by his virtuous peers, rising to the defense of Marriage, Country, and Pure Womanhood.

Though where you'd find such peers, I dunno. If there are any, none of them put in much of an appearance at denouncin' time back in '98. The job was left to lesser, louder men.

Conservative morality encapsulated. Blowjobs are bad, but killing your daughter's ex-fiance is a good thing. I think I will go stick my head in the oven (may be a slow death since it is electric).

[CatStaff]

Don't bother, Dr. Dick. All an electric oven will do is frizz your hair.

[El Gato Negro!]

If you can't say "blow job", then you can't say "I wish Bush had gotten a blow job so we could have impeached his smug, bloodthirsty ass."

Better a real BJ than a half-assed hand job, which is what we're about to get from the Dems on healthcare.

Of course, the vacuous talking heads focused solely on Marcy's choice of nouns and totally ignored her major point.
