Tough Choices
In the current deathmatch between Michelle Malkin and Geraldo Rivera, I can’t figure out who to support.
I think I will root for injuries.

Shrieking, slobbering, scratching, then more shrieking slobbering, scratching; followed by wild animalistic copulation ending with Malkin devouring Rivera to feed their upcoming offspring.
Stephen
who michelle malkin?
Keith
Easily Geraldo.
Jess
Sick, but brilliantly on the mark!
Punchy
From her comments:
Geraldo is now a liberal. I did not know when this happened, but I wonder if Faux News knows about this.
Stephen
BLARGGGG BBBBB ZZZAPPPP!!

What I wouldn’t give to see Malkin air her cheerleader video on one of her O’Reilly substitution episodes….
Gold Star for Robot Boy
I’m rooting for Geraldo.
It was 30 years ago, but he was a prize-winning investigative reporter in NYC. Broke a story, IIRC, on the appalling conditions of mental health hospitals. He’s career has taken a wrong turn since then, but he’s still got some karma points from me.
Malkin, OTOH, dressed as a cheerleader to make a political point, but still demands to be taken seriously.

The simple thing is to read what Geraldo said:
“Michelle Malkin is the most vile, hateful commentator I’ve ever met in my life,” he says. “She actually believes that neighbors should start snitching out neighbors, and we should be deporting people.
Which is about as debatable as “You should brush your teeth”.

Well, I’d do Malkin if she was gagged and couldn’t talk, but I wouldn’t touch Geraldo with a 10 ft pole. Homey don’t play dat!
Elvis Elvisberg
It’s like the Iran-Iraq War.
So in imitation of Rumsfeld and the Reagan administration, I guess I should be supplying Geraldo with tobacco and maybe some chemical weapons.
TenguPhule
Improved.

Just out of curiosity (and repulsion): Why are you joking about rape?

I’m rooting for Geraldo.

I can understand that, but he gave all those karma points back during the Katrina coverage when he had an old woman walk to a helicopter twice because he didn’t like the original shot. I’m hoping that Geraldo and Malkin react with each other in such a way as to cause them both to be struck dumb and lose the ability to type.

Most of her post seems to be about how rich Geraldo is. I don’t understand. Is she a communist now? Since when do people on the right get upset about how much money people make? Isn’t that what the market is all about?
KCinDC
Oh, and yes, I’m rooting for both to lose somehow, just as I am in the feud between the Moonies and the LaRouchites.

Send the anchor baby back to Jolo.

As opposed to being struck stupid?
It’s Geraldo Rivera Versus Michelle Malkin » The Moderate Voice
[...] It just shows you forgot the importance of counter arguments and counter facts — and don’t have dry mouth. MOST UNUSUAL COMMENT ON THIS FEUD comes from John Cole: In the current deathmatch between Michelle Malkin and Geraldo Rivera, I can’t figure out who to support. [...]

WTF? Who said anything about rape?
Bonnie
You did.
“I’d do Malkin if she was gagged and couldn’t talk.”
If she couldn’t talk, and couldn’t give consent, that sounds like rape to me.
Why is that funny to you?
Derrick
Bonnie,
Don’t be such a downer on a funny thread. The man was clearly referring to kinky sexual relations where Malkin could use some safe sign to stop him, like maybe a Nazi salute which I’m sure she would be fine with.
The Disgruntled Chemist
My favorite comment from the thread at Malkin’s is comment 65:
I’m beginning to wonder about Geraldo’s immigration status. Maybe his middle name is ‘Anchor’.
TMoney has missed something about Ms. Malkin, I think.
Bonnie
Hm. That’s a novel explanation.
It’s also really stretching it, as the original comment said nothing about kinkiness or any safe sign.
In any case, since you called this a “funny” thread, the question remains: Why is rape funny?
Surabaya Stew
Wow!
I’ve been reading this fine blog for almost a year now, (being a total lurker all the while); and its finally come to this…I feel compelled to defend Geraldo! Amazing what haters are posting on Michelle’s site; I’m actually rooting for this woman to have her ass kicked and spit on by America’s original trash journalist… could we have pay-per-view?

“Hm. That’s a novel explanation.

It also said nothing about force or rape, just that she was wearing a gag (plenty of “normal” are into all sorts of completely consensual kink). To be honest though, even the implication of the gag without further context is kind of icky but I wouldn’t go so far as to call it a “rape-joke” yet. Perhaps the original author should be given a chance to clarify.

Geraldo isn’t really that bad. He’s not a vile and evil human being, at least, unlike Malkin.

I donknowwww! She kinda looks like maybe she ain’t from round here! Like maybe she or her parents come from onna dem countries with TERRORISTS

“Why is rape funny?”
The psychologist Freud answered that it was a way to reduce tensions over things we felt uncomfortable about, people tend to joke more about serious issues. For example, doctors routinely make jokes about their patients to relieve the stress of working in life or death situations.
And George Carlin pointed out rape can be funny, think of Daffy Duck raping Porky Pig. It’d be hysterical. Dead baby jokes, “Don’t drop the soap” prison jokes, and racist jokes can be funny, but in real life, they’d be horrible. Hence we joke about them to alleviate the painfulness of them, unless you like thinking about depressing things all the time. Same way we say “excrement” instead of “shit”, because one is medical and refers to it in a clinical setting, the other is impolite because it refers to feces in all its uses. Read Stephen Pinker if you’re interested more in this subject. If we can get past the derailment…
I love that Malkin can act tough on screen. “Kill all people at Guatanomo, no rights for Americans, watch me stalk a twelve year old boy and his family…” But then, “Wait, somebody said something mean about me? WAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH
!! DADDY O’REILLY, MAKE THE BAD MAN STOP!” And, she tops it off by saying, “Well, if you really love me, go visit my website and read my blog.” Outstanding. She threw a temper tantrum, left, and went to her room to tell her friends how mean people can be.
