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?
