DON'T HATE US BECAUSE WE'RE BEAUTIFUL

"The conservative movement is just too fundamentally stupid to sustain itself," writes Duncan "Atrios" Black. Well, maybe so, but at least we're cute:

I have met some drop-dead gorgeous men in my time, who I've striked up a conversation with and found out that they're complete right-wing tossers. This is a chance to celebrate the only thing these men have to offer left-wing people like me: eye candy.

That's from Aaron Hewett, who is running the Sexiest Right-Wing Death Beast Awards. Those lady-slaying rogues at Paul and Carl's are early favourites to win, obviously. Curse their surgically-enhanced cheekbones.

Man, this is reassurance of a kind Karl Rove could never give me... please let them keep this up through '06. Pleasepleaseplease...

These people don't think they're contesting with political opponents; they think they're dissing a rude waiter. They'll never win another major election and they probably don't notice the spitwad in their salad, either...

I'm too sexy for that blog.

So this is the new "progressive" strategy:

"Perhaps if we taunt the conservatives, they'll become angry and make a mistake?"

"Like what?"

"Well...."

Seems to me I've seen it somewhere before...

"I have met some drop-dead gorgeous men in my time, who I've striked up a conversation with"

Alas, nothing stops attraction dead in its tracks like a poor command of the English language.

That might be Evil Pundit in the photo.

The trouble is I can't vote for what I haven't seen, and I don't think I have ever seen a picture of a RWDB.

Mind you, as Paul and Carl are from Brisbane (and thus can't possibly be good looking), I will vote for them as an act of sympathy.

Gee, Richard takes himself seriously. Always find that unattractive in a fellow.

Just had an attack of the guilts for saying something mean about Richard.

Sorry, Richard, for being mean.

"The conservative movement is just too fundamentally stupid to sustain itself,"

The Republican conservative movement only been around for 40 years, Atrios, you pompous twit! Does Barry Goldwater ring a bell?

By pissing off the majority of moderates, the Democrat Left had its "Bush=Hitler, Conservatives are EVIL!" strategy blow up in its face, so now they're going with the "stupid inbred redneck" meme, as if that's going to win them the Red States.

Darlene — I figgered you were talking about some other Richard what isn't smart like I is.

Who has a photo of Tim so we can nominated him already? He did look rather cute in his drunken "we're sorry" pics, but we need something a little more cheesecakey.

The Republican conservative movement only been around for 40 years, Atrios, you pompous twit!

It also went from being a fringe movement that lost in a landslide to LBJ, to being the majority movement under Reagan and Bush.

If that's a stupid political force, I'd hate to classify the left...

"The conservative movement is just too fundamentally stupid to sustain itself,"

They keep calling us stupid, we keep winning elections. (In America and Australia anyway). Which position would you rather be in?

For you Darlene.

Me, Link.

The rest, Link.

Link broke try this.

The rest, Link

Paul & Carl

Us fundamentally stoopids have the presidency, both houses of congress, and a majority of the governorships, and no end in sight!

Man are we dumbasses or what?

We're continually put down by the brilliance of Fatso Moore, Al Franken, Terry McAuliffe, Kos, Dan Ruther, the MSM and the all knowing atrios. It's really only a matter of time before us red-staters start looking to that bunch for inspiration. Maybe a hundred years or more!

They couldn't beat George Bush on his worst day! November 2nd proved that. Now they want Bush to reach out to them. Humbug.

They have all the votes they can possibly muster on their own. To gain any ground they have to come to flyover country and get some of ours. The best way to do that is to call us all dumbshits! Yeah, that'll work!

"This is a chance to celebrate the only thing these men have to offer left-wing people like me: eye candy."

That would be because poor Aaron would have to go back to school in order to hold an even halfway intelligent conversation with them. I'm quite sure, after reading the little blurb above, that the eye candy guys are quite happy to pass up sustained conversational interludes... it's so tiring having to listen to such poor grammer.

It would be amusing to be a fly on the wall at these meetings... just to see who walks away first.

This stuff is all being beamed out into space, where it is trapped eternally in the ether .... so watch those typos! The word "grammar" doesn't have an "e" anywhere.

While I'm here, it occurs to me that "these men" do have something to offer left-wingers besides eye candy" (oooh, I HATE that phrase). They could offer anything from good advice to brain transplants.

I love the phrase "eye candy".

It makes the more mundane and ordinary "mouth candy" sound saucy.

Whil flattered, I must demure- you've missed the most obvious entrant.
(BTW- we're more like "poke-your own eyes out candy"; while I am a virtual god, my sometime co-auther has a head like a well-chewed mintie, and causes dogs to flee in terror and babies to scream- and that's when he keeps his bag on).

Maybe we need a name change. "Right Wing Sex Beasts" sounds good.

It's not that we're _that_ sexy, it's that lefties tend to be ugly. Growing up ugly gives you a chip on your shoulder against those who do better than you, and a desire to bring them down. These are the fundamental principles of left-wing "thought".

Jorge: You got it right, but backwards. It's the having a constant chip on your shoulder that makes a person ugly.

I've always found that left-wing luvvies know how to admire a man's body and can give good head jobs.

Jorge, jooly,

Heheheh, having one's face constantly screwed up into a snarl isn't exactly, umm, photogenic.

l^P

Mmmm, there is a cute fellow standing behind Kev Gillett.

Other than that, I vote for Ren and Stimpy.

Hmm. Now what shining light of the Left, when asked to define womens position in The Movement answered - 'Prone'.

And to the best of my recall, the leftie females of my youth were notable for their willingness to oblige.

Males of the feral left turn me off completely - I always find myself wondering what would happen if their family were threatened - would they still cling to their pacifist nonsense? Or would he offer to 'negotiate'.

Yes, of course the conservative movement is 'too stupid to sustain itself' - thats why Conservative governments were elected in a landslide in both Australia and the US.

Neaderthal Man, sexy? Then I'd enter myself but no cameras have been invented here yet.

I wonder why left wing men are generally less attractive. Perhaps it's because they tend not to eat so well

DARLENE ! HELLO !!! What about this...

The work of an articulate Sydney cabbie who...Also gets the thumbs up for being lovely to look at.

Now you've dropped me ! Please come back, it was only a rash...

Never consider you an a RWDB, Adrian.

Your blog is way too sensitive and lovely for that.

Now, with a comment like that you should have the RWDBs checking out your site by the trillions.
