It sure doesn’t smell like victory. (When I tried to embed the video, the site got screwed up so just go over to Wonkette and watch it there.)
Weiner does a good job of handling all the bullshit (some of which comes from St. Howard), til the idiotic hosts jump in on Nooners’ side.
At this point, if a suicide bomber can sneak onto the set of “Morning Joe” I’m going to set up an ActBlue page to get the guy his 72 virgins.

I gave him $10 because of this video.
Also, because of his URL. http://www.friendsofweiner.com

Priceless.

Peggy Noonan is a ninny.

I’m with John, Doug that is a truly wicked comment. The imagery!
And boy, I love the way Weiner looks at them like they are all complete idgits.
And for those of you who don’t usually read Wonkette, the comments for the Weiner-Noonan slapdown are inspired, the dislike of that horrid bat runs deep over there. Some of the best threads over there have featured old Peggers. They should have found a way to bury her with her hero Ronnie.

No kiddin’. Like, “Do you morons even know how legislation even works? Scarborough, I’m especially looking at you, kid.”

Actually, it was only Joey Scar that jumped in on Nooner’s side. At the very end you can hear Mika saying of Weiner, “He’s making sense.”

That is officially fucked up.

Thanks, Doug. The FBI has files on all of us now. Hear that sucking sound? That’s the sound of Carnivore vacuuming up every letter we type…

Does anyone skewer Peggington Noonington better than Wonkette? No, no they don’t. Don’t even try.

After Joe Scarborough dies, he should get 72 Noonans. Of course, that sick bastard might like that, especially if one or two are interns.

DougJ, I am already related to people named Mohamed and such, I do not need to be associated with this kind of talk. On second thought, that was truly brilliant.

How anyone can watch Peggy Noonan on Morning Joe is beyond me. You are infinitely tougher than I.
And let’s not give Dumber Than A Doorknob Mika a pass either. She’s the one at the end of the clip saying she can’t find any insurance company ads opposing the health care bill.

@ChrisB:
I think the trick is to guess how much Peggy has imbibed that morning, double the amount for yourself and then watch.
And 2-handed facepalm for that nitwit Mika.

Concerned Mika is concerned.

What district does Weiner represent? Would he be willing to move down to SC?

@Seanly:
The real question is when is he running for president?

Also, David Brooks is very visibly upset (Newshour Friday). He cannot conceal is disappointment at the coming victory for Obama and Democrats.

Thanks for the Wonkette link as I would hate to have had to watch that damned show to get to this point. Apart from a secretive desire to view the sweater pups, on tuning in I am usually greeted and turned off by Pat Buchanan with his karate chop gesticulations and spittle flying about. (Who has to clean the set?)
Now, if they promised an on-air disembowelment of Miss Peggy, I’d TIVO it and also watch live. Anthony Weiner does the next best thing.

@bob h:
Freaking Bobo, I enjoy pointing out to my U of Chicago undergraduate that the mere existence of this nattering nincompoop devalues her eventual college degree.
Ticks her off to high heaven.

That just fucking wins the internet. WIN!!!!!!!!!

Actually, it’s not 72 virgins but a 72-year-old virgin. Error in translation way back when.
