Andrew Sullivan Back From Vacation

Posted on | July 19, 2010 | 31 Comments

You may wonder: What topic would Sully blog about Monday, having been off the grid for the past week or so?

Guess. C’mon, guess.

If you can’t guess, you’ll probably click this link. And feel ashamed of yourself for doing so.

    By what do you mean “back from vacation”? Poor lad’s been MIA for about six years.

    Charles Johnson links to Andrew Sullivan, ergo Charles Johnson is a trig truther.

    Perhaps a post demanding Charles Johnson denounce Trig thutherism is in order Mr. McCain.

    “Why are you so reactive to Andrew Sullivan?”

    Why is The Gay so incessantly obsessed with a woman’s uterus?

    Personally, I think Andrew Sullivan is a closet hetero who has been fisted too many times for him to expose his true inner self.

    Poor thing, I feel Sorry for Sully stuck in a closet with Charles Johnson’s hand far up his a**.

    Unlike poor sully, I have been pregnant with a real child, not a throw pillow. I did not know I was preggers until almost 5 months in (irregular since puberty so no red flags ever went off) and I did not “show” one iota until my 8th month. I had no maternity clothes and I had a 7lb baby with zero stretch marks. Sully fails to realize that nature is unique – each pregnancy is its own story. Some women balloon and some do not. He is such a sad little thing. My mom also had my baby bro at 40 and she never showed either. HMMMMMMM

    You know what drives me nuts about Andrew? He cares about this enough to have spent two years “raising questions”, but apparently not enough to have gone out and get answers for himself. Come on. If you can establish that a politician pretended to have a Down syndrome child for political profit, that’s a story you can publish and make money from. And no less than our host, Andy Bumsex writes for money. So…don’t spend two years whining that your target won’t release her medical records. Go ahead and try to establish your story. Get the Atlantic to pay the way. Get another magazine to pay the way. Get a book publisher to pay the way. If all else fails, tell your readers to hit the tip jar, Daddy needs to go to Alaska. And then make the calls, read through the documents, talk to the players, and figure out what holds up better, her story or your take on it. Or maybe I’m being unfair. Maybe he’s just pretending to be a boorish, obsessed, lunatic prat. Maybe he has in fact done all that and is just holding the results for when they, in his estimation, can do the most harm to Governor Palin. And he can do that at his leisure because, of course, nobody else out there wants to make a name by ruining Sarah Palin.

    Nah. He’s an idiot.
