Jonah Goldberg is criticizing Howard Dean on his dress as governor
http://www.nationalreview.com/goldberg/goldberg.asp

<snip>
"While all the other governors dressed like bankers, Dean chose to pose as if for the cover of a L.L. Bean catalog, studiously relaxed on the shore of a pond in an open-collared flannel shirt, khakis, and racy hiking boots. Previous governors probably liked the great outdoors, too, but they didn't think their job was about validating lifestyles."
<snip>
You stinking, fucking hypocrit, your boy GWB's always prancing around in cowboy boots and flight suits trying to validate the lifestyles of Rednecks and Arm chair warriors.
Jonah you should stick to trying to validate the genocide of Arabs, and Muslims, and the PNAC crowd's actions because that's what your good at.

3. What a joke! People were making fun of Howard because of how old his
suits were - he isn't a very fashion conscious guy.

Have you signed your enlistment papers yet, Jonah? You dumbass.

4. Who cares what that evil spawn of Lucienne thinks about
anything? He has no more credibility than Annie skinny Fannie Coulter.
He's probably jealous that Dean looks good in those duds.

5. There is nothing this asshole can say to reduce his credibility any
more than it has already been reduced. His claim to fame? His hag of a mother. Fuck Jonah and the horse he rode in on.

6. What a putz
And if Bush had dressed EXACTLY the same way:

"A man of the people"
"doesn't overdress"
"donesn't dress to show off"
"is comfortable in his skin"

7. its all part of the orchestrated attack on Dean
coming from all sides on queue. As pointed out elsewhere even AAR got with the program today.

We've got a war brewing up with Syria and Iran, a gay sex for hire scandal in the white house, a deficit heading towards 600B this year, we just appointed an advocate of torture as AG and a war criminal complicit in central american death squads as intelligence czar, but what's important is that Dean dresses like he is from vermont and points out that hotel workers are mostly non-white. I'm glad we've got our priorities all set.

8. Pomp and arrogance.
Also...someone remind Jonah about the Drudge article about 1999-2000 in which he wrote that politicians working for a person who was considering a run for the presidency were busy trying to collect some history on their candidate - a photograph was mentioned...of the potential candidate dancing nude on a table top with boots on. Now, was that Gore or Gary Bauer or Pat Buchanan or any of the other candidates. Not long after, Bush announced.

Oh yes, I may be wrong in my suspicion. But, it is only a suspicion.

Maybe Jonah would approve the boots only dress.

10. Instead of dressing and projecting the image of a..
professional journalist, Jonah Goldberg prefers to validate the opinion that he is a fat fuckin' dick.

15. Speaking of dress, Jonah should to suit up in a military uniform and
match his big talk with action on the front lines.

"Oooooooh my wife and kids will miss me" :scared: Chickenhawk bastard.

Can a man with bad breath stop terrorists? 9/11 changed everything, even bad breath.

20. It's all true (shudder!)
Just check out his offical state house photograph:


Oh, what a scandal. Maybe he still wears hiking boots!

This is soo lame. This is like those stupid windsurfing JK pictures that the GOP spin masters used to distract us from Iraq. Yes, can a man who wind surfs lead the free world? (But, a complete chimp idiot can.) Can man in hiking boots lead the DNC? Of course, a complete ass can run the RNC...

21. The fact that Jonah is not laughing at his own stupid remarks
Is alarming. I don't remember when I have seen more words wasted.
This is too many for me already. Next.
Demonfighter does 1000 Jonah. :mad: Don't mess with Dean!
