It probably goes without saying that Betsy McCaughey is a soulless self-promoting bullshit monster. The whole article is well worth reading although I’m not sure why Michelle Cottle seems to believe that McCaughey is considered attractive. At least to anyone outside of the equine set….

Ughh. I opened the link and found that there was three long pages of this. I’m going to recapture those 5 seconds of my life.
Bookmark it. You can substitute Palin’s name in four years.
Tbogg. Dude. Remember: Back home–meaning in southern California–Betsy “Mrs. Ed” McC. ranks a solid “Meh…” in looks. But here! On the East Coast! In think tanks! Where Laura Ingraham made it to the cover of the New York Times Magazine wearing a leopard-print miniskirt! There are different rules for “attractive” in geographical areas in which one doesn’t appear in public in a string-bikini top and Daisy Dukes.
Wow, “toxic nonsense!” Thanks, TBogg, I never go over to the TNR joint anymore, I certainly would have missed that extravaganza without your link. What a hoot!

This is what Sarah Palin would look like if she hadn’t grown up in a backwoods village. They both share the same general pathology.
Not to mention the fact that McCaughey is in the same cadre as Pantload, Douthat, the ex-Virgin Ben, etc. Any of those lads would fuck a snake if someone held its head for them.
Interesting that TNR gave Cottle’s demolition of McHacky the same title as McHacky’s piece — with Google in mind, I imagine, so that people searching for “tnr no exit” find that alongside the original nine-course banquet of lies.
I saw this chick on “The Daily Show.” She came onstage hauling 2 huge binders–allegedly containing the proposed Act, and proceded to read the sections that allegedly referred to the “death committees”–or whatever they’re called to this week. Jon Stewart almost went apoplectic at teh awsome display of teh stupid.
The section referred to advising persons about filling out advance directives/DNRs. Actually, many hospitals do this now as a matter of policy. Because, as I found out during my last stay at one of our fine medical establishments–when they brought around the DNRs, I figured: Well, no need to bother with this, as I already have one of these at home in my desk drawer! But that’s the problem. It’s not doing the hospital staff a @#%& bit of good if your DNR is at home in a drawer, now, is it. Nothing like a really lame conspiracy theory to make common sense seem exciting.
I saw that show too, and just like 10 seconds of Palin Q&A, it’s all she needed to “…speak up and remove all doubt.”
But as someone pointed out I think here at tbogg’s den of iniquity, the fact that she was even on the show in the first place gave her more credence — and certainly more exposure — than her particular flavor of stupid and callously ignorant deserves.
JEBUZFREAKINCHRISTO!
I’d finally gotten over the “eyebrow” picture of Creed fan John Lott from a few days back and stupidly clicked on the linky above.
Won’t be any sleep for days now after seeing that monstrous mouth of gnashing teeth…….
what if Little Sarah Moosejaw could form complete sentences?
Replace the East Coast researcher’s political-outsider, stats-wielding, pointy-head shtick with a political-outsider, gun-toting, populist one, and a striking parallel emerges: Betsy McCaughey is, in essence, the blue-state Sarah Palin. – p. 1
Within the self-styled empiricist resides the mind of a pathological alarmist. – p. 3
“It’s impossible to keep up with the quantity of misinformation,” laments Henry Aaron. “It’s like being sprayed with muddy water.” – p. 3
I can’t find a link, but the lore around these parts is that then-senator Al D’Amato persuaded his handpicked gubernatorial candidate, George Pataki, to take her on as a running mate by saying something like “Isn’t she hot?”
She missed her calling as one of the cannibals in the film version of McCarthy’s “The Road”.
Throw some gore around her mouth and she’d make an excellent zombie, too.
ICK.
Good God, it just occurred to me. She’s the Bride of Chucky.
“She clawed her way up from a troubled, blue-collar background “
by marrying two Wall Street big dogs, sued ex-hubby for $40 million.
Palin comes across as a pillar of female integrity compared to this castrating bitch.
Evil is not attractive.
Zombies don’t like right wingers because zombies like braaaaiiiins!
But that does bring to mind Bush’s awesome Zombie Threat press conference:
Dang zombies ate the above linky but here’s cut-n-paste:

And now that’s the accepted method of picking your vice-presidential running mate (cf. Caribou Barbie).
Thank god she’s a woman because if her pathology were mixed with testosterone she’d be a serial killer.
I held my nose & clicked on the link, finding this in the second paragraph:
When I went to comment and point out this gem, I was not permitted to. Apparently you have to subscribe before being allowed to comment.

Somehow I’m not viewing hubby as a victim. She married her own kind.
Well put. And a hat tip and a Kleenex to CaptPhealy…
