This is conservative hypocrisy at its finest....
Edited on Tue Jan-25-05 02:12 PM by Kid_A
I like to visit www.pabaah.com (PABAAH is Patriotic Americans Boycotting Anti-American Hollywood) from time to time, because the guy who runs the site is such a complete jackass that he borders on parody. (click the link above for a perfect example).

Anyhoo, today I saw something on that site that I felt I had to share with my fellow DUers. Right below a report from the 40 million dollar inauguration festivites, there was this:

Cancel The Academy Awards

In light of the fact that so much money is obviously spent promoting the Academy Awards, buying dresses and jewels, Hollywood should do the right thing and cancel this elaborate celebration. Money that would have been spent by Hollywood should instead, be donated to American military families who have lost loved ones or may be suffering economic hardship as a result of deployment.


And of course he has no idea why this is fucking hilarious.

1. Incredible.
Even *my* head wants to explode reading that. Are you sure he's not a parody? :)

7. No, he's for real.
He was on the Daily Show one time being interviewed by Rob Cordry. He didn't realize he was being made fun of, so he's obviously not that bright.

But he is real.

8. I was just about to comment on that.
LOL . . .

"Powered whit Protector System"

I guess they don't know that ANY server can tell what site referred you, it's not difficult to bounce someone based on the referring site.

Oh, wait, that's sad, not funny.

28. Tell that to DC. They got stuck with a HUGE bill they have to take out of
their Homeland Security funds.

It's the balls that are paid for by the corporatistas.

9. Not just last week's $40 million parties, but
all of those grassroots "middle class" Hummers, may they continue to role for everyone, a sign of our "health" . . . . HA!

10. I've seen the guy on TV
and you'd think he was an Ali-G type parody if you weren't assured that he's, uh, "real".
I don't think self-awareness is ever a quality of the righteous conservative. They're pious and smug. Always. Even when they're paying for their girlfriend's abortion, having their housekeeper obtain their illegal drugs, or talking smutty with their producer.
Everything is STILL, and will always be, the fault of Hollywood, Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, and trail lawyers.

11. Check out the cartoon "The American Patriot"
Edited on Tue Jan-25-05 02:25 PM by brainshrub
I used to lampoon that strip here, but I decided to stop giving it free publicity.


Don't you love the way he spelled weekly?

I suspect that after the artist saw the posts I was making, he changed the character from a powder-blue "Gay Duo" outfit to dark-blue.

ON EDIT: The link is here: http://www.pabaah.com/modules.php?set_albumName=album05&op=modload&name=gallery&file=index&include=view_album.php

But you have to register as a member to see it, it will not even show up as a link unless you are a member.

22. Gag....
Thanks for posting it, appalling as it is. It's good to know what else is going on out there, as I wouldn't normally go searching for it.

They really must do a spell check on the content, though.

23. unbelievable ...
on so many levels. I suppose the inauguration festivities were acceptable, as is appealing to Hollywood to provide relief funds the government can't afford ... if it weren't so ridiculous it would be hilarious.
