Ah, VDare. The proud home of “Emmitt Till had it comin’.”

The proud home of “Hitler had his good points, like trying to kill all the Jews.”

The world needs more Aaron MacGruder. However, VDare isn’t all bad. I particularly enjoyed getting a link in this article:

Click on “hundreds of patriotic Americans flocked to the Arizona desert” in the first paragraph.

I’m sorry, Roxanne, there ain’t no way I’m willingly clicking on a VDare link. I get antsy about having the Corner appear in my History, much less an honest-to-graud white supremacist site…

Who was the Chicago columnist who had his characters at the bar?  Royko?  That was okay, since it was assumed that he was having dialogues with himself as other characters (based on real people?  who cares!?)  This anonymous cab driver thing is taking that to another level, minus what authenticity and character it once had: you’ve got these out-of-the-mainstream middle-six-figure-earning columnists whose only connection to the common man is a fictional cabdriver, probably since their landscaper and maid don’t speak English, the interns at their paper or network aren’t allowed to talk to them unless it’s “Yes, sir,” “No, sir,” or “I don’t think this is sexual harassment, but I would like a letter of recommendation, sir”, and their sommelier just doesn’t have that Everyman mystique needed to spout idiotic opinions the columnist can’t risk his cushy job to give on his own.  Maybe the valet, the bathroom attendant, or the personal chef will be tomorrow’s cabbie, but not just yet.

But—what will Thomas Friedman write about?

the official MSM channeler of the common man

I thought that was David Brooks. Then there was Malkin and the “security moms.” Oh hell, there’s a bunch of them around.

Careful what you say about Uncle Ruckus, he’s a master in the deadly art of the nunchaku.

Purple monkey dishwasher?!? Holy crap! I thought banana trumpet unicorn!!!

Uncle Ruckus is a character that drives me nuts. Because my immediate reaction is trying to one-up the flagrant So-Racist-it’s-not-even-offensive-anymore-just-confusing antics. While such conduct does have a place, it’s specifically around people where you know where the actual line is EXCEPTIONALLY fucking well.

but goddamn if he isn’t one of the funniest things on the show.
