Political Punditry

[Miss Modular]

It seems like anyone with an opinion and a few connections can write a book or host a talk show. If I wrote a book called Talking Out of My Ass, do you think it would sell?

[Protoclown]

You need to have the word "Lies" somewhere in the title too. Perhaps in a subtitle.

[Miss Modular]

Thanks for reminding me. I'll put that somewhere in the subtitle.

[El Blanco]

And make sure you clearly denote that you are going to be insulting someone throughout the book.

People don't look for answers with political thought, just someone to blame and lots of snide comments.

[Miss Modular]

I'll write it all down!

[mesobe]

and put a famous face on the front.. even if the person as nothing to do with your book!! someone like Jessica Simpson or Sharon Ozborne

[mburbank]

If you can make a film where you actually talk out of your ass, it would be a pay per view goldmine.

[MEATMAN]

And put giant googly eyes on that ass! Give it a Hitleresque mustache! And have it look like it's saying something!

[Dr. Nick Riviera]

Jim Carrey already did that in Ace Ventura.

[Perndog]

He didn't have googly eyes and a mustache though.

[El Blanco]

If you are writing as a liberal, you need to portray a bullshit sense of intellectual superiority.

If as a conservative, bullshit moral superiority.

[kellychaos]

And a website link with lots of cool swag with catchy, clever barbs emblazened on them which insult your opponents.

[Miss Modular]

You know, I was sort of joking about this, but I may actually write this book.

[El Blanco]

And get celebrities to talk about your book. Remember, you aren't trying to solve any problems, just peddle your book.

Ya, but you should point out that he is in fact refering to the book.

[Brandon]

Someone beat you guys to the punch!

EDIT: Took the picture out.

[punkgrrrlie10]

Make war, not sodomy.

[kellychaos]

He's a sodomizer, not a fighter.

[El Blanco]

Sodomy and sodo-you.

[Miss Modular]

Funny you post that one, Brandon. It made me think of the fisting passage that's in one of Hannity's books (I'm not sure which).

I'm sorry for posting this already, but the etymology of that word suprised me.
