SATURDAY: He put a smile on our face twice again!

SATURDAY, APRIL 27, 2024

Termagant does double duty: It was the termagant's second night back from a well-deserved, week-long vacation. 

At exactly 10:02 p.m., the termagant struck again. It was the second joke of his opening monologue. The deep discussions followed.

The fellow is 59 years old. This is a typical part of his nightly diet:

Hillary Clinton this week claimed that Donald Trump wants to be like Vlad Putin. Which is odd, since she has more in common with Vlad in that she looks horrible topless.

[Photo of shirtless Putin appears]

AUDIENCE LAUGHTER

After a pause, the termagant added this:

...and kills people.

No sickness left behind! At 10:04, the termagant followed with a Governor Hochul "can't move her face" joke. 

Some Democratic women are too fat. Some have done too much Botox. 

As it turns out, other women the termagant loathes just look terrible topless! Also, the many people the Clintons have killed, courtesy of Jerry Falwell and Gennifer Flowers!

For what it's worth, this seems to be who and what the termagant actually is. Given the state of our political / journalistic culture, he's a major ratings star in primetime "cable news."

Earlier yesterday, on The Five, he regaled us with another of his standard touchstones. 

The group was discussing President Biden's (observably) stiff gait. In this new post, Kevin Drum lists a few of the medical reasons for this observable phenomenon.

The Fox News gang didn't bother with any of that. At 5:05 p.m., the termagant offered this analysis:

It's the woke handlers who are accelerating our nation's demise, and he's just there along for the ride. 

Who knows how much longer he'll be there? I think it's also— 

You know, it's also hard to walk when you've got a load in your pants. 

[ONE PANELIST LAUGHS]

Why do you think they call him Dark Brandon?

Shannon Bream was willing to step in and pretend that this garbage dump somehow makes sense.

The fellow is 59 years old! He grew up in a sunny place. This is the state of the culture.

  1. "At exactly 10:02 p.m., the termagant struck again."

    Gutfeld is not a termagant. A termagant is defined as a shrewish woman. To my knowledge, Gutfeld has not changed his pronouns.

    But this does illustrate why Somerby is no longer worth reading. His inability to read his comments prevents him from feedback that would improve his essays. It would allow him to correct factual errors (which everyone makes occasionally). It would allow him to address sticking points in his discussion, which he instead repeats over and over. It would prevent him from making the mistakes he himself claims our blue tribe makes -- mistakes of never listening to divergent points of view. He listens to nothing.

    2. We are not living in the Middle Ages and Somerby did not spell the word Tervagant. Here is what your link says:

      "The word is also used in modern English to mean a violent, overbearing, turbulent, brawling, quarrelsome woman; a virago, shrew, vixen.[1] In the past, the word could be applied to any person or thing personified, not just a woman."

      Please read this yourself and think about it.

    3. Maybe Somerby really does think Gutfeld is a God? That is perhaps what @12:10 is suggesting.

    5. Gutfeld is as Bob’s describes (although, he is off-putting and crude, he’s generally on target.)

      Anonymices are by and large female, yet would be aptly described as the d-word by people every bit as insightful as me, but far and away less delicate.

    6. It is an old right wing trick to take a negative from their own side and apply it to their perceived enemies.

      Somerby points out that Gutfield took an actual issue with Trump - Trump’s stench emanating from him passing gas and pooping in his diaper - and flipped it to inaccurately and misleadingly attack Biden, who smells nice and only poops in a toilet.

      Ultimately, this makes Republicans look bad, which is why non right wingers do not waste much time criticizing Fox News, as the net result of Fox News is a decline in the power of the Republican Party.

    9. You think Gutfeld is on target by attacking Clinton? That would be like Colbert making jokes about Reagan. Maybe a cheap shot but hardly relevant to anything.

      Somerby didn't point out that Gutfeld is turning the Trump diaper jokes against Biden. I pointed it out. Somerby has never said that is what Gutfeld is doing -- that would involve saying that Trump wears diapers, which is not allowed by Somerby's handlers. Somerby is right in there with Gutfeld, calling Biden old.

    10. Anonymouse 1:03pm, it’s been evident that you’re new to the anonymouse ranks here. The more long term anonymouse ladies may be on leave due to burn out or to physical ailments that spring from having to constantly churn up their sort of personal negativity and bitterness.

      The anonymouse pose has always and eternally been that Bob’s lack of focus on Fox was the definitive sign of his apostasy. That was up until the day Somerby started posting on Fox’s contribution to the degradation of our national dialogue.

      Delete
    11. Anonymouse 1:57pm, Somerby is right there with people calling Biden old. Biden is old.

      You, your fellow anonymices, and Gutfeld are down with the poopy pants jokes. As seen by your posts.

      In fact, Anonymouse flying monkeys were into that line of political commentary long before Bob was reporting on Gutfeld!.

      Delete
    12. There has never been a lack of focus on Fox here. You perhaps mean the lack of criticism of Fox? Somerby has previously said that we libs should watch Fox because they have better facts over there and hear things we don't, such as that Kyle Rittenhouse is a poor disturbed nursing student who was attacked while innocently defending a car lot with his automatic weapon.

      Somerby's pretend upset is because Gutfeld is smutty. (That has nothing to do with our national dialogue.) He knows Stormy is a grifter because she is smutty too. He doesn't like that sexy-time fun. (It is tastefully implied in The Lady With the Lapdog, never stated.) I'll bet Gutfeld looks good without his shirt on!

      Look how sweetly Cecelia is trying to goad anonymous commenters by suggesting they are all women with physical disabilities! Awwww! Plenty of elderly adults transition in old age, because it is easier to do. Maybe Somerby is becoming a termagant himself, and that is what his medical appointments are about? Cecelia, I think you've accidentally hit on something true.

    15. Anonymouse 2:23pm, I don’t know how you manage to be atomizing in your descriptions and simultaneously superficial, There needs to be some sort Anonymouse For Dummies, to describe this phenomenon, but then you’re all the dummies.

      No more is that fact evidenced today than your suggestion that I called all anonymices physically disabled. With handicapped license plates too, I suppose.

      Bob has never advocated for a system where people have to continually switch back and forth between channels in order to be fully informed.
      That they do, is his very point.

      This thing you do with “the women and their stories” is particularly contrived.

      It’s you who tie yourself into a pretzel equating a one night stand with a philandering husband as being Chekhov. That’s exactly what you do. You know “the stories of these women” about having sex and then demanding thousands of dollars to keep their mouths shut? Of their victimization when the new payee and owner of that story kills it rather than making them famous when the guy decides to run for office.

      Oh, the mistreatment and oh the malfeasance to voters everywhere.

      Delete
    16. Oh looky! Cecelia is trying to sound intellectual by using more words she doesn't know the meanings of. She obviously never read the Chekhov story in question if she thinks I am equating it with anything. Both Stormy and Karen wanted to TELL their stories not keep their mouths shut, so yes, that is victimizatuon.

      You misuse the word malfeasance, but what can we expect from a semi-literate like you? We got Trump instead of Hillary because Trump illegally manipulated the election (with a little help from his friends Comey and the Russians). That was a crime and now Trump will pay for it.

      But is is neither mistreatment nor malfeasance that hundreds of people died unnecessarily during covid because Trump was incompetent while HIllary would not have been. That is tragic. The families of those people matter and they will vote, just as they did in 2020 when Biden beat Trump without breaking a sweat. Your callous disregard for those who died is noted. It is consistent with your admiration for Noem's dog-killing stunt.

      What happens in The Lady with the Lapdog? A philandering man gets his comeuppance when he falls in love with a woman he cannot have. That cannot equate to anything in Trump's life because Trump is incapable of love.

      Delete
    17. Cecelia could you please expand on your seemingly meaningless reference to Ceckhov? You can accuse me of making too much out of Trump looking for outside sex while his wife is coming back from a pregnacy. You can say the pious conservatives who went after Clinton’s penis like they were Ahab and it was Moby Dick are entitled to be screaming hypocrites (it’s fair to assume you are at least a variation on this theme), I don’t agree but OK. You can say, if only for the good of the the Country and the world I want Trump behind bars for anything that can land him there. I won’t fight you on that. But what that has to do with the celebrated Russian playwright is seemingly nothing except it feels kinda intellectual to throw out his name.

      Consider that Stormy went with Pecker after she didn’t get the help she asked from Trump when he had started his campaign. She had previously been the beneficiary of Trump money for keeping to herself the classic and deeply poignant and personal tale of banging The Donald. She later got a lawyer who stole thousands from her.

  2. "The fellow is 59 years old! He grew up in a sunny place."

    If Somerby is referring to Northern California, it is not sunny there. Not the way it is in Southern California.

    As Mark Twain said: “The coldest winter I ever spent was a summer in San Francisco.”

    For those without a map, San Francisco is only slightly North of the area where Somerby and Gutfeld went to high school.

    On average there are 260 sunny days per year in Palo Alto. In contrast, Denver has over 300 sunny days per year.

    But who cares about facts when you can say whatever you want because you will never read your comments. This is how Trump works. He says any damned thing he wants and then doesn't listen to criticism or anything anyone else says.

    10. As a psychologist, I can confidently say that concrete thinking does not spring from militancy. It could be the other way around, militancy might spring from concrete thinking, but concrete thinking (at the extremes) actually springs from frontal lobe damage, such as in dementia, traumatic brain injury, schizophrenia or bipolar disorder, Parkinsons or similar disorders. Sometimes it is part of ASD (but not always).

      Cecelia is just mimicking what she heard others here say about being excessively literal. Being literal and being concrete are not necessarily the same thing. She has also picked up the idea of pathologizing other commenters from the discussions of Trump's psychological problems, but in Trump's case, he has obvious symptoms. Cecelia is just trying to insult people.

      Delete
    11. Cecelia is once again assuming that all commenters, even the ones saying obviously different things, must be the same anonymous commenter. The guy who fearlessly posted his name is not me -- I am cravenly not going to post my name because I don't want every internet yahoo to bombard my home with death threats -- that IS what happens to anyone who lets the right wing in the front door. Cecelia treats us as if we were both the same person, when we clearly are not.

      Note the deliberate use of the pronoun "she" with a guy whose name is Bob. Right wingers believe in imposing pronouns on others, not replying in a civil and courteous way to whatever a person has indicated they WANT to be called. Misgendering people is a political statement for assholes like Cecelia.

      I called Bob a “she” because Bob may is more than likely to be a woman, because the anonymouse league is largely comprised of women.

She did a good job as secretary of state and she was not in charge of the military or defense or any other role in our government that would have involved killing anyone.

      She is not now running for anything. Why would Gutfeld tell a stupid joke about her being a killer? What does the right get out of hearing such a joke?

      If my presidential candidate were actually showing symptoms of dementia, as Trump is, I wouldn't be using that word to describe others. It invite a comparison that Trump would not benefit from.

    11. Prove it. No one who has ever seen even a picture of Hillary Clinton can imagine her killing a fly (much less a puppy, like Kristy Noem). Clinton had no authority over any American military, so she didn't give orders to kill anyone. This is a dirty right wing slur and you are a a dirty right wing slur-slinger. And Gutfeld is no different.

      And while we're at it -- Trump poops his pants and farts in court. He never did know how to behave, even at official meetings while he was president. Melania won't hold his hand because she knows what he does. He is a demented man-baby who will lose bigly in November, then disappear from history as the worst president ever. And he really did kill hundreds of thousands of people, all those unnecessary covid deaths because he didn't know how to step up and be an actual president. Clinton would have saved all of those lives, if Trump hadn't colluded to rob her of the presidency she earned by beating Trump by millions of votes.

      Perhaps the right thinks that slurring Clinton will result in less jail time for Trump? She and our country's voters are the ultimate victims in Trump's hush money scheme. Maybe you think that portraying her as a "killer" will exonerate Trump, but that may be how Trump thinks, but is not the way the world works.

      Trump keeps whining about the courtroom temperature, but wait until he has a jail cell to complain about -- and no one to listen to him do it.

    12. Clinton’s statement does not mention killing anyone. He was killed by his own people.

    14. Clinton was not directly responsible for any deaths in Libya, she was merely describing that NATO observed an out of control tyrant threatening more violence, came and defended Libyan civilians, and as a result the tyrant, Gaddafi, was killed.

      Clinton did not liberate Libya, the actions taken there were primarily motivated by France, who had humanitarian concerns as well as financial interests.

      Having said that, Clinton’s gloat was gross, a manifestation of her more pernicious traits.

      It is ludicrous that a troll can come here and make assertions like that, wasting the time of those who respond to defend Clinton, who obviously did nothing justifying what Gutfeld said. Somerby is mum about the joke too.

      But the right wing doesn't care what it says. They say whatever they want. Occasionally they get sued for defamation, but the rest of the time they say crap and the morons who watch Fox and other right wing channels believe lies. That is a huge problem for our country, not for HIllary because she is not running for office and not listening to the right, but for our education system and for our democracy, because there are people like this troll, and like Gutfeld, and ultimately like Somerby, who think that all that matters is winning, no matter how you do it.

      Trump's trial is about the fact that other things do matter and that manipulating an election the way Trump did is illegal and will not be tolerated. These trials are about the limits of bad behavior during an election. So is this matter of this particular troll who doesn't care what he says as long as he gets paid by whoever is currently trying to manipulate this election. And Somerby is no better.

    27. How much bullshittery can Weirdo Mao pack into a single "argument"?

      1) When people like Gutfeld refer to the Clintons killing people, they're not talking about the killing of Gaddafi, of course. They're talking about absurd, baseless accusations dating back to the '90s about the Clintons having political opponents murdered -- accusations spread by people like Jerry Falwell. So no, Gutfeld wasn't "right about that."

      2) Weirdo Mao wants to give the impression that the killing of a monster like Gaddafi was some sort of race-based crime, so he refers to this as "killing Africans."

      3) The quote, "We came. We saw. He died" does not imply Clinton herself killed anyone or ordered the killing of anyone. However, even if she HAD killed Gaddafi with her own bare hands, that would be a bad thing, Weirdo Mao?

      4) Weirdo Mao believes the 2020 election was stolen and that Putin is mass murdering Ukrainians because he's just so concerned about Nazis.

      Speaking of which, Marjorie Taylor Green spouted the Nazi nonsense recently and got slapped down by someone who actually knows things (unlike Weirdo Mao who only pretends to know things): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=deZGDItziG4

That is because the RNC doesn't have any money to pay for bots. Any actual right wing bots would have to be paid for by Russia or by a specific candidate's PAC.

      Biden's campaign has a lot of money. But they wouldn't spend it on bots to infest this blog because it is so obviously right wing (based on Somerby's essays). From a Democratic perspective, there is no point in encouraging people to get out and vote if they are not Biden supporters.

    35. When someone calls a commenter a "Soros both" it is helpful because it immediately identifies where that person is coming from, although that is increasingly unnecessary given that nearly everyone here any more is right wing.

      It is as if the right wing believes that only George Soros has money on the left. And if that were true, how would Biden be so far ahead in the presidential fund-raising race while Trump and the RNC are both so broke?

  4. The weather in Palo Alto is pretty close to ideal. Sunny jost days. Not too much rain. Comfortable in all seasons.

    Weather in the Bay Area can vary a lot by moving just a few miles. Just where one is in regard to the Coastal Range and the altitude of the mountains to your west can make a huge difference. SF is open to the ocean winds. Palo Alto is not.

    1. Not according to meteorologists. The 268 sunny days is for Palo Alto, not SF, and I think that 300+ is better than 268, so I wouldn't call 268 perfect. I shouldn't have distracted you with the Mark Twain quote, but San Diego is regarded as having the perfect climate in California, not Palo Alto. People do not retire to Palo Alto the way they do to Palm Springs or Santa Barbara.

  5. Right on cue, Gutfeld is back making fun of Joe Biden and Somerby is back too, repeating the same jokes about Biden's age. Somerby notes that Drum explained why Biden is walking funny (he broke his foot in 2020 and it still hurts). But Somerby doesn't provide the explanation, just the link. So, evidently Gutfeld's joke is worth repeating but Drum's explanation is not. It isn't as if anyone were charging Somerby for the extra line or two it would have taken to provide Biden's reason for walking the way he does. It is almost as if Somerby doesn't want prospective voters to know that Biden broke his foot, instead of being "too old". Does breaking your foot cause dementia? Not in any medical journal I've read.

    There are many jokes on the left about Trump's farting and the likelihood that Trump wears diapers, about his terrible smell. Bette Midler came out with a stinky fragrance ad about it (see Digby's blog for a link). Given that Somerby's ostensible purpose here is to exhort the left to be less like the right, why does Somerby not repeat any of those stories and jokes word-for-word, like he regularly does to promote Gutfeld? His failure to use the left's own silliness to illustrate his chiding, instead of repeating negative "jokes" about Biden, suggests that Somerby doesn't really care about changing how we behave over here, but is just an opportunity to broaden Fox's reach by giving Gutfeld a bigger audience, one that includes left wingers.

    If you think of Somerby as an influencer, what is he promoting? He does give Drum a boost, but his main "product" being shilled is Fox News and specifically Gutfeld. Who knows? Perhaps Somerby owes Gutfeld money from the days when they were comedians together and Somerby ran a comedy club? Or maybe Somerby is monetizing this blog the same way other influencers do. By promoting unsellable products like Fox and Gutfeld and Trump. Somerby certainly isn't doing Biden any favors and Somerby keeps saying he plans to vote for Biden! Somerby has an odd way of showing his love. That may account for why he has no one to drive him to his medical appointments.

Biden had a similar problem with his dog but he solved it by removing the dog from temptation, not by shooting it. Perhaps the difference is how members of gun culture solve problems (i.e., with guns) and not so much how people feel about dogs.

  16. Left and right are not two ends of a single continuum. Many theorists consider political views to be multi-dimensional with various labels to the scales (control-freedom; radical-conservative; egalitarian-hierarchical; authoritarian-democratic). Personality traits have been mapped onto some of these scales. Others do not think of politics in terms of dimensional scales but in terms of categories, such as the 7 types of political ideology:
    Anarchism.
    Communism.
    Conservatism.
    Environmentalism.
    Fascism.
    Feminism and identity politics.

    The point of classifying by beliefs is that they are not "both of a kind" but distinct in important ways.

    I don't think "Conservatism" really belongs here. For example, in a post-communist country (like Russia or Ukraine, for example), 'Conservatism' would imply 'Communism'.

  19. Kristi Noem herself said she killed the dog because it was too excited and uncontrollable when being taught to hunt. It killed too many birds, then killed all of a farmer's chickens. She did not say the dog was dangerous to other animals or to people, but she said it couldn't be trained to hunt properly due to being too excited. First, it was young, and second, who knows how much it was allowed to exercise or experience new things, or how it was taught? Her story sounds like others where pet owners don't know how to stop dogs from doing natural dog things, such as barking or jumping up excitedly when someone comes in the front door, or being rowdy in play. Dog trainers DO know how to address such behaviors but it doesn't sound like Noem knew how to work with the dog and it does sound like she didn't want to invest effort in it. She says several times that she hated the dog, and that is a good enough reason to kill it on the right, I suppose. In the dog community, problem dogs have problem owners.

    "All dogs can be trained, but the method for teaching them will vary from dog to dog. Sometimes when a dog is not responding to training, you just need to try a different training style. Training trends have varied over the years, moving from methods based on compulsion to techniques using positive reinforcement."

    I'll bet Noem had no idea how to train her dog so she shot it instead.

  24. Trump's team is having difficulty getting him to attend fund-raising dinners and meetings when he just wants to play golf and do what he wants, instead of being constrained. That is making it hard to carry on his campaign activities.

    https://www.rawstory.com/trumps-moods/

    This is what happens when the candidate is an overgrown child who is not used to being told what to do. As his dementia worsens, his moods will become more difficult to work around and he will be harder to control, even when the people around him are asking him to do things for his own benefit, in his own interests. That is the nature of his cognitive deterioration.

    Meanwhile, the right is equating the demands of his trial to "punishment." Normal people go through trials without Trump's extreme angst, and lawyers do it for a living. The difficulty is with Trump, not any unusual circumstances involved in spending a day dealing with his own past actions. The right pretends Trump is being persecuted specifically when he is doing what anyone else would do in his situation.

    At a bridge tournament, you play two sessions beginning at about 9:30-10 am and continuing until about 6 pm, with an hour or so for lunch. You sit at a table (or go from table to table) and hold cards in your hand, focusing with intense concentration, using your memory and analytical abilities to defeat opponents who are doing the same thing. It is constant attention, often in a hotel ballroom that is too cold. The average age of the participants is 73 but many are older. And we do this for fun. Some who do it have physical disabilities but they compete until they absolutely cannot. This makes Trump seem like a delicate flower indeed. We look at him and think that he should have more pride than to complain about such minimal duress. He cannot even pay attention when they are talking about him!

    And here’s a link to a tweet with a video of a “Shabbat service” at Columbia. As the video pans out, you can see that almost none of the students know the song, which is an extremely common Sabbath hymn that any Jew who ever attends real Shabbat services would be familiar with.

    1. Do all Jews observe Shabbat in the traditional manner? I thought there were Jews who were less traditional and didn't observe all of the customs. Aren't there different groups among Jews who are observant to different degrees? I've watched the Jewish Matchmaker show on cable and it is part of their questionnaire in order to match Jewish people based on their degree of religious observance.

      I think you may be jumping to a conclusion about the young people who don't know the words to the songs -- maybe their family is Jewish but doesn't observe Shabbat that way.

  39. Yesterday Somerby said this: "As we surely know by now, MeToo came and briefly performed, and after that it went."

    Women do not believe that MeToo is over, so Somerby may be premature in this prouncement. Weinstein's case was overturned on a procedural ground about admissibility of other accusations during his trial. That doesn't mean anyone now condones what he did. Nor does it mean his other convictions will be overturned.

    Trump's trial is not really about Stormy Daniels or the sex stories he suppressed in the 2016 election. Daniels says the sex she engaged in with Trump was coerced but not rape, and she doesn't consider herself a victim because of it. But Trump's behavior with her, especially his assumption that she would have sex with him because she was asking to appear on his Appentice Show does reek of Weinstein's rapes. But that is not what Trump is being tried for. It may be what women will judge him for, as he tries to continue his campaign.

    So, on what basis does Somerby say MeToo is over? He may be referring to the overt sexism displayed by Gutfeld in all of his comedy routines. While that is sexist, it isn't MeToo. I'd like to see anyone call Gutfeld out on his sexism, even Republican women and other guests, even his producers at Fox. Why should this pass for humor? But if Somerby thinks this has anything to do with the forcible rape of women on the casting couch, he is very confused. He is so confused that he may be minimizing what rape means, that he would think a few crude sexist jokes are what bothers women in the MeToo movement.

    So maybe Somerby needs to explain what he means when he says MeToo is over, because it isn't over for us.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. When Somerby says MeToo "briefly performed" he is making an incredibly insulting remark, saying that the MeToo Movement was performative and not genuine, not arising from the pain and desire to address grievances of women who were abused in a variety of areas of life. E.Jean Carroll is part of MeToo and her verdict was just affirmed, Trump was denied a new trial and her award stands. So, in what sense is her MeToo trial "performative" and not a deeply felt grievance she experienced and the rest of us shared, as women?

      And this kind of remark is why Somerby is a huge sexist asshole.
