Why did I spend most of last night talking with callers about the explosion in Tacoma, rather than politics?
Can’t Bring Yourself to Type the Word “Ass”?
Eager to share our brilliant political commentary and blunt media criticism, but too genteel to link to horsesass.org? Well, good news, ladies: we also answer to HASeattle.com, because, you know, whatever. You're welcome!
Uhhh … ’cause most people think it’s FUN to watch stuff blow up? Even though they won’t admit it. Most Republicans, anyway …
… and they don’t care very much what (or who) they blow up. They get their gratification from the bang. It’s all about the bang!
Because that’s what sells papers…and brings ratings.

That’s why they call the GOP the Bang Party.
@3 That too.
@2…RR…
Rabbit hunters love a “bang!”

@3 (continued) You see? Goldy’s gonna make it big in the radio biz, because he intuitively knows what listeners really like!
@6 They have to catch the rabbit first.
@6 (continued) Notice that I’m still here … (snicker)
Wow! This thread is already up to 10 posts! That’s more than Stefan’s sucky little blog gets in a week, except when he gets a working single mom fired from her job. That always generates a lot of traffic! Republicans think putting people out of work is almost as much fun as big bangs! Except, they don’t like supersized bangs because that goes against their creationist beliefs.
@7…RR…
You saying Goldy is the next Rush Limbaugh?
The Piper
@9…RR…
You should watch two great French films, Jean de Florette and its sequal, Manon des Sources, to see what happens to rabbits.
The Piper
@10…RR…
If you think the prattering of two ne’r do wells who have nothing better to do with their time is significant, you might want to check what’s used to marinade your carrots.

Big explosion in Tacoma. Probably GWB’s fault. Or Karl Rove’s. Or maybe Hillary’s or Obama’s. Can’t trust either party to not be involved in terrorism.
Maybe the explosion is a “practice run” for covert upcoming covert activity to stop Iranian nuclear ambitions??
Hey – it could happen!!

Slow day at the office?
(Los Alamos, April 1, 2012)
“The scene is seared in my memory. As Paul Allan’s “Space Ship Two” rose majestically from the yellow sand desert, there was a woosh, bamn then … a dry rain of ashes and burning composite, the acrid smell of fuel, the burning flash of the Vulcanaire.” David Goldstein’s words will live in memory just at his event lives alongside 9/11 and Dec 7 in the memory of Americans. As you nation readies for its retaliation against the Cubans, we need to remember in gratitude the words of this brave man, reporting to his blog even as he was comsumed by flame. —Senator Darcy Burner
Mark the Redneck,
Did you soil your pants when you heard the explosion? Did you run into your basement and wrap yourself in plastic sheeting and duct tape?
Dumb fuck.

Goldy has already made it big in radio in a liberal sense… he has over a hundred listeners. That is huge in the lib radio biz. The Seattle Boys and Girls club can rest a little easier now.
@16…SJ…
I saw the movie! It was on a double feature with Invasion of the Body Snatchers with Kevin McCarthy playing the part of Goldy (Sort of a Kevin retrospective film festival).
The part of Darcy Burner was played by noted comic and actress, Phyllis Diller if for no other reason that Phyllis holds some sort of comedy record for delivering 12-punchlines in less than a minute whereas Darcy can’t say anything genuinely punchy in 12-minutes.
The part of the Cubans was played by HA regulars who are naturals for the part.
Interesting, though, that you have Goldy consumed by flames…or is that flamers? Please clarify.
The Piper
seattle jew…that’s just sad. i would keep your day job if i were you and give up your dream of writing. really.
and , i have to ask…is your nose always this far up goldy’s ass?
@11 Who’s Rush Limbaugh?
@12, 13 – What you don’t understand is that nature designed rabbits to reproduce faster than anything can kill us off! It doesn’t matter how many rabbit stews there are! There will always be trillions of rabbits! After you humans become extinct, rabbits are gonna run this place, and I’ll be their king!
@14 There’s a violation of government regulations somewhere there.
Propane tanks don’t blow up when people follow the GOVERNMENT’s rules. I’m just sayin’ … someone in the PRIVATE SECTOR fucked up!
@18 Dog, the last thing you’ll ever see on this earth is the veterinarian snapping on a pair of rubber gloves and smiling at you …
@20 christmasghost
is it sad? oh. I am so sorry.
Thank you for your contribution.
@22…RR…
Sorry to disappoint you…after humans are gone, cockroaches will predominate…and herbivores will be devoured by carnivores…but always there will be cockroaches, Raid! notwithstanding.
The Piper
So….your species ISimmortal.
Now, that’s REALLY depressing.
@23
And no doubt opportunities for trial lawyers to sue whomever has the deepest pockets!! Even if the poor bastards had notihing to do with the explosion.
The tort system exists to insure trial lawyers have nice paychecks.
@27 Rabbits have been here millions of years and will still be here after you’re long gone. So what if a few of us get eaten by wolves. We can reproduce faster than anything can kill us. We’re going to occupy every ecological niche until it’s full of rabbits, including yours! After you humans are extinct, your cities will be teeming with rabbits. We don’t mind the cockroaches, we’re not competing with them, and we get along with them. And we expect to find cockroaches wherever humans have been.
