Posted on | June 10, 2012 | 4 Comments

— compiled by Wombat-socho
Well, here we are again, and I am obliged to remind the Loyal Readers that while most of the links to follow are quite tasteful and artistic, others are Not Safe For Work, and clicking on them could lead to a serious pollution of your precious bodily fluids, among other unfortunate eventualities. On with the linkagery!
We are compelled to begin with Dustbury, whose submissions for last week’s roundup were unfortunately re-routed to the spam bin. Herewith: Lights and Jacqueline Fernandez. Indeed, he finds the names nobody else looks for! Next up, the POH Diaries gets hot and dumb with Amanda Bynes and some apropos commentary by @DrunkHulk. Also, Kate Upton! Fishersville Mike features Brandi from Storage Wars, and Randy’s Roundtable goes with Bree Conden and Katie Cleary. Politically Incorrect has Elisha Cuthbert, Laughing Conservative Melanie Sykes, and First Street Journal salutes some badgers. Three Beers later has some Rockstar babes, Jerseynut also mocks the drunken Ms. Bynes, and the Pirates’ Cove has the Sunday Pinup.
Soylent Green gets off to an early start with Sunday’s Classic, Jakki, followed by Monday Motivationer Ashley, Tuesday Titillation with Francys, Humpday Hawtness for a rainy day, something about running off to join the circus, School’s Out Spassfabrik with Sarah, Corset Friday with guests, evening awesome, Saturday Sarah, and some Go(Ogler) chum for Japan.
El Opinador Compulsivo returns with the best of his May Opiladies: a high-res post, At the beach, random, Talita Rocca, Liz Hurley, Close-up, Silvita’s self-portrait, the pool lifeguard, and a chambermaid.
A View From The Beach kicks off with Felicia Day, Slutty Wednesday, Jenny McCarthy, Sheryl Crow, and another damn zombie post.
It’s been a busy week at The Camp Of The Saints, what with mad bombers on the rampage, but Bob did manage to get Carlotta Champagne for this week’s Rule 5 post. Proof Positive has Mangalorian cutie Shilpa Shetty, vintage babe Ann Sheridan, and Wonderbra for the Sex In Advertising segment. Dustbury this week has Angie Harmon and Anoushka Shankar.
American Power is back with posts on Minka Kelly, April Rose, more April Rose, and April Rose at Maxim. Speaking of Maxim, here’s a video of their Hot 100 party, and finally, Heidi Klum pole dancing.
The Daley Gator’s Daley Babes this week included Aiko Tanaka, Hayley Marie Norman, Megumi Haruna, Elizabeth Ruiz, Coco Aiba, and Juliette Cabrera.
Thanks to everyone for their linkagery! Deadline for next week’s Rule 5 roundup will be Saturday, June 16. Please remember to send your submissions to
Rule 5 Wombat.

‘Making Love Out of Nothing At All’ #VanJonesTearJerkers

Posted on | June 10, 2012 | 4 Comments

by Smitty

It really sounds like they’re having a tough, tough time at Netroots Nations conference:

“We went from having a crush to feeling crushed,” he added, as the convention hall — which at about 1,500 activists was about half-full compared with where it stood during Warren’s address on Friday — responded with cheers and applause. . . .
[Jones’s] Saturday night remarks, which came on the heels of Democrats’ loss in the Wisconsin recall election and as Obama has stumbled on the campaign trial, underscored the challenge the president faces in energizing his base in November.

While making Commies cry is a patriotic duty, one feels that nuance dictates that the crying be done to an appropriate soundtrack.

Separated At Birth? Obama/Dilbert Edition

Posted on | June 10, 2012 | 11 Comments

by Smitty

Some will say that this comparison grossly disadvantages Dilbert; others, that the Pointy Haired Boss makes the more accurate juxtaposition. But I say “Hey: posts are where you find them.”

‘Why In The Hell Is Eric Holder Still Attorney General?’

Posted on | June 9, 2012 | 57 Comments

by Smitty

E. T. Williams Jr. just rocks:

To answer Mr. William’s question, Holder is sill the AGJ because he is both a Reliable Tool and, also, he Knows Too Much. My guess is that Holder has a signed presidential pardon in his safe. Would you exhibit the sort of cheek that Eric Holder offers before Congress without a Get Out Of Jail Free card in hot standby?

Update: welcome, Instapundit readers!

Update II: linked at The Pirate’s Cove. Thanks, Bill!

Update III: who knew that the Evil Blogger Lady was a Monopolist?

Maher Veers In The Direction Of Coherence While Contrasting #Occupy With Tea Party

Posted on | June 9, 2012 | 5 Comments

by Smitty (via Breitbart)

Potty mouth alert. Maher cannot communicate a point without an F-bomb. He correctly grasps that, in terms of tangible results, #OccupyWallStreet is indistinguishable from the World’s Youngest Blogger’s #OccupyDiaper parody routine.

But he is incapable of grasping that the Tea Parties did things The Right Way. In supporting liberty, in adhering to the Founder’s principles, in leaving locations cleaner than they found them, Tea Partiers exemplify an adult approach to political involvement. When Maher says that the Tea Party used Alinsky tactics, he’s either (a) ignorant of Alinsky’s evil, or (b) doubling down on the evil with slander.

Lord, grant Bill Maher some insight into how completely wrong he is.
