A Flaming Dumbass New Years’ Resolution: Patience
January 1, 2011 Leave a comment
On December 27, I tweeted many times on the hashtag, #BestQuotesOf2010.
Given the fact that, at the time, there were only four days left in the year, it seemed a safe bet that no Dem, RINO, or other variety of lunatic was going to come up with any additional material.
I figured everyone would be too busy returning absurd gifts, stocking up on heavily-discounted Chinese-made Christmas decorations (they pay you to take them home), and bulking up to shoot for the World’s Fattest Person mantle in the Guinness World Book Of Whackadoodle Obsessions and Freakish Accidents of Birth to come up anything more imbecilic than the quotes I was tweeting then.
Boy howdy and, like, OMFG LOL ROTF WTFH, was I wrong.
As I wrote at the time, way back earlier this week (good times, good times):
As we look back with mild amusement and throbbing migranes on a year chock-full of gaffes, dissembling, Orwellian fantasy, and general all-around bloviating buffoonery, it hardly seems possible that the most idiotic paragraph of the year should come to us as a belated Christmas gift.
On December 29, “Robert Dallek, the presidential historian,” a dark horse at best in the Dumbass Comment Oscar race, delivered this gem, which I thought for sure certain was the Flaming Dumbass Comment of the Year, and blogged accordingly:
[Obama] doesn’t crave the spotlight the way some of these other presidents have. They needed to be constantly in the eye of the public; it propelled them into politics in the first place. Obama is less that way…
I mean, how could anyone…how is it possible…there’s no flippin’ way anyone…I mean that’s just so flippin’ dumb. Right? Gotta be the Dumbass Comment of the Year. Has to be!
If I weren’t an atheist and didn’t know better, I would swear God has a sicker sense of humor than Andy Levy.
My New Years’ Resolution is Patience.
Why?
Two words:
The issue of the Constitution is that the text is confusing because it was written more than 100 years ago and what people believe it says differs from person to person and differs depending on what they want to get done.
Patience. Just when you think you’re done, think a second time (as Dennis Prager would say. Not that Dennis Prager would have a blog called Flaming Dumbass. But you get the point).
ALL HAIL EZRA KLEIN! YOUR FLAMING DUMBASS OF THE YEAR!
And remember, Ezra created the sneakily-activist, lying, race-baiting, sycophant “journalist” email list called JournoList, as well! He’s been rockin’ like Dokken!
Well done, Ez. Your certificate is in the mail. We have a weiner!
