We're still congratulating ourselves on beating
Nate Silver and other geniuses with
http://blogs.villagevoice.com/runninscared/archives/2009/02/alleged_leaker.php">our Oscar predictions. But, as you might imagine, rightbloggers had a worse night -- not just in
predicting, but in reaction to Sean Penn's win for Milk. "As I emphasized in my article from earlier this week," harrumphs
Intellectual Conservative, "Harvey Milk never spoke out on the subject of gay marriage and it is quite possible he would have opposed it as other gay activists such as Michael Bronski have." He might even have turned straight or become a Klansman -- really, anything's possible.
Rightwing movie site Big Hollywood was draped in black. "They got their president, and they got their Best Actor," mopes
Dallas Jenkins. "so perhaps in 2016 Bobby Jindal will be elected President and Gary Sinise will win Best Actor." "I pledge to never again watch a Sean Penn film," cries
Ernie Mannix. "You can go to hell, you sanctimonious whiner," yelled
Ben Shapiro at his TV. "Sean Penn Makes Me Puke In My Mouth," says
Brett Joshpe. "As I said, the Academy punished Mickey for his gratitude towards President Bush for keeping our country safe from Islamo-facist terrorism." There's the real truth Entertainment Weekly won't tell you!
Conservative Dude is angry about all the Indians. "Indian dude wins an award. Please get over yourself. You weren't just made the Messiah... Another Indian dude wins. More drivel. Kiss your cow and be done with you!" This cowboy has a bright future in the Movement.
