The Daily Dish - 2006-2011 archives for The Daily Dish, featuring Andrew Sullivan

Patterico And Code

It seems that the right-wing blogger was immune to the irony in my post about Cheney that noted he was indicted for "abuse of prisoners." The entire post is as follows:

Cheney Indicted. For abuse of prisoners. And some don't believe God exists.

Patterico describes this obviously wry remark thus: "Anderson Sullivan"; "shrieking, hysterical"; "wets his pants". Drudge had the same headline, without the deadpan commentary. Was he shrieking and hysterical? The commenters chime in:

Sullivan will have that nervous breakdown he’s been building towards and cease blogging to open that think tank/t-shirt shop that P-town so desperately needs.



Oh, I don’t think that Mr. Sullivan is wetting his pants, exactly.  Not in the sense you mean it.

Shouldn’t his nickname be something more up to date at this point - like, say - Mr. Iron Glutes?

Sullivan has a permanent man-crush on Barack Obama.
 

I don’t have anything against insane, middle-aged, gay guys … and I don’t ever want to.

       

Criticize me all you want. But why is this fourth grade homophobic crap the first thing that always comes into their minds?
