Erick Erick Mobius Strip of Continuous Other Erick’s Erickson is tired of all of you HornyRINO’s ruining HIS PARTY with your sexy shenanigans and penis flaunting about and he wants you guys (particularly YOU, hornydog rich dolt Ben Quayle!) to either put it back in your pants or GTFO:
Today comes word that a bunch of Republican Congressmen got drunk, naked, and jumped in the Sea of Galilee. No doubt a few of them, given the religious significance, peed in the holy waters while swimming. Many conservatives are greeting it with a yawn, a “the media is out to get us,” and a “no big deal.”
Were these Democrats, we’d be out to get them. We should not surrender our intellectual honesty just because they are Republicans. The story is not a major story, but it is embarrassing and we should not be so dismissive of a group of American lawmakers behaving badly as if they were starring in a Girls Gone Wild video.
Ben Quayle, in a primary with Dave Schweikert in Arizona, came to Congress in the midst of the news that he had a website rating the various women of Scottsdale. We should not be surprised the child of privilege still hasn’t grown up. As parents, we should be appalled that drunk, naked Congressmen are skinny dipping with the children of other Congresscritters and then hiding behind Jesus to do it.
They have embarrassed themselves, their families, their constituents, and their party. They should have the decency to resign, or at least put a paper bag over their head and go away for a very long time.
This is really shaping up as a banner week for Republicans.
We should do this more often…

Well thank goodness Senator Brown had a sense of modesty.
Jesus, tap dancing Christ!!! It must be time to go ice skating in hell, cause I kinda didn’t have a whole lot of issues with what freakish wingnut dude had to say!!! And found it rather refreshing he didn’t do the whole, “well tonight Michelle Obama’s making children eat carrots, so totally the same thing!!!”
Gee! The Sea of Galilee has a volume of 0.96 cubic miles and these congress critters have contaminated it by pissing in it. The most I’ve ever pissed is about a pint and I was as drunk as the Lord as we say down here.These folks must have been pretty wasted.
Oh, also, too….if they really did pee, every bit as satisfyingly glorious as Thomas Kincaide taking a leak on Pooh’s statue at Disneyland, with his hale, hearty, “the one’s for you, Walt”.
The actual expression that I know down here (and many other wherevers, originally the UK, I think) is “drunk as A lord,” as in “lord of the manor” lord.
In medieval times, it was only the 99% who had enough money and leisure to stay plotzed 24/7. And apparently they did.
I’m gobsmacked! EricksonofEricksonofEricksonofEricksonofErick has actually backed off Ye Olde IOKIYAR wide stance.
Amazing. Of all things and from all people.
Of course, at the end of the day, EricksonofEricksonofEricksonofEricksonofErick chooses something that’s pretty much irrelevent in the scheme of things to take his, uh, dickheaded wide stance on.
Methinks someone’s jealous…
Okay, he can be right this time. I can live with that.
Wow, talk about giving the playbook away. Eric bin Eric just admitted that they are noise-generating partisan outrage machines with programmable settings; Rove’s gonna be pissed.
They’ve violated sacred waters? Do you get the impression Erick thinks the lake is hermetically sealed to protect it?
My opinion of Thomas Kincaide has just gone up a few notches!
Here it is, ladies and gentlemen — today’s Republican party — Mitt Romney with his ever-changing residencies, EricksonofErick with his posting skillz, and little naked Kevin Yoder. Liars and typers and bares, Oh My! (Sorry. Couldn’t stop myself…)
I know, it’s simply glorious, isn’t it?
@Longjourney – Mittens has to change residences to match his many flipflops. I suspect each home has a corresponding list of policies to match!
Are you even allowed to use the words “Republicsn” and “intellectual honesty” in the same sentence? Non-ironically?
MKK
Blind hogs, acorns. Broken analog clocks (all you kids, git offa my lawn), right twice a day. Statistically it had to happen…
I love you! If only I weren’t way past menopause I’d love to have your children!
Whenever I read Erick I picture that furious ten-year-old German kid smashing his key board.
My favourite comment over there:
Me too. I’m happy to get in line behind you, Marion.
ReallY? I couldn’t care less about this silliness. I know if this was a group of Democrats, Republicans would be freaking. And I’d be rolling my eyes then, too. The hypocrisy is hilarious, but pretty small potatoes.
Thanks to you and Tehanu. Seeing as how I’m past menopause myself, I think our having children together would be in the area of miraculous. I do however, really appreciate the thought!
Don’t nobody tell him that fish fuck in there.
Well dayum! I was going to offer to thumb-wrestle the other post-menopausal ladies for your heart, but since you seem to be one of us, why don’t we just all go out for drinks and laugh at stupid dick republicans?
Tbogg, why do you suppose so many “women of a certain age” seem to hang out at your house? Does the missus know? Or is she still trekkin’ around NYC with the L&TC and is not worried about what we’re all talking about?
Tbogg, why do you suppose so many “women of a certain age” seem to hang out at your house?
I dunno what Tbogg or his missus would say, but most “women of a certain age” I know don’t suffer fools gladly, and I would think that in this case, they enjoy having like-minded company around here.
Actually, Cantor was there (at least according to Politico) and boy was he pissed, and not in a good way. It’s hard to be a Jewish Republican sometimes.

Despite the lavish graft, unseemly corruption and tawdry behaviour of these people:
Turns out the FBI wasn’t even interested in them. What they really wanted was this guy:
Maybe someone should tell CNN’s finest about that.
Yet another old lady (post-you-know-what)(or ask Jerk Akins re ladyparts) checking in. Daily (actually more often than that) lurker.Addicted to parentheses and the downfall of the Repubs.(and Tbogg)
Marilyn Quayle is said to be REALLY upset about her boy’s behavior. Dan – not so much.
Years ago, I shared a house with some American U. students. Some were frat boys- they were Dekes. I learned from them that Dan Quayle was a Deke, and the Dekes were like this rich-kid version of the Animal House Deltas. I also learned that a whole lotta rich-kid Republikkkanz larvae were Dekes. It explains so much, even more than I ever could have dreamed of.
Erick of Erick von Ericksonn turning into an Onion columnist- that is definitely beyond dreams- or nightmares.
Okay, it’s hilarious, but pretty small potatoes, and you could care less. As I’m sure everyone from Steven Colbert, to Mort Sahl, to Jonathan Swift would say, any time away from seriously boiled large potatoes is sinful. Anyway, I don’t think you’ve considered two serious issues:
1. Regarding indendent voters, a Republican mixed company skinny dip (or would it be flashing) in holy waters would be about the equivalent of Democrats discovered mugging WIC program recipients for their cheese.
2. We need assurance that admitted noodler and Republican VP candidate Ryan was nowhere near the same sacred waters at the time of the skinny dipping.
No, He wasn’t! Wasn’t, wasn’t, wasn’t, wasn’t, WAS NOT! Wasn’t, to infinity! So there!
Glad that’s settled. Now can we move on to some real scandal, ie one involving the real scandalous scandalizing scandalers? You know, the stuff that we know is happening, but the Liberal Media keeps not reporting on, thus proving that they’re Liberal! It’s shameless how the Liberal Media keep making up these BLATANT LIES to try to smear the good, God-fearing Holy Men of the GOP. Anyway, even if it was true, it’s really OK because they were overcome by the Holy Spirit, and anyway the Liberals did it first, and more than us, and made us do it.
“…a bunch of Republican Congressmen got drunk, naked, and jumped in the Sea of Galilee.”
Since Yoder was the only one who got naked, Eric is at least consistent in his sloppy & misleading reporting on Republicans as well.
You are exactly right about that. The men and women who hang out here regularly are the smartest bunch around, besides being quite witty with the remarks. It’s the only place I go where the comments are consistently as good as the host’s musings.
Also, what styx @ 24 said is the whole thing. I am personally convinced that Politico intentionally jumped on the skinnydipping to divert attention away from the real FBI interest, and CNN and the others fell for it.
Good news for John McCain & etc….
What I always heard is this: a Deke is what you piss out of in Mexico.
Or you can piss on ‘em, when they’re passed out drunk.
Not that I would ever think of such a thing.
We are ashamed of nakedness, but not condoning torture.
