Congratulations to Ace of Spades: He won blogger of they year at CPAC. That’s a choice I can live with. The way things have been going, though, you’d think they’d have awarded it to Andrew Sullivan… or Glenn Greenwald…
Here’s John Hawkins’s account of seeing Ace. I’ve talked to John Hawkins before, so it’s almost like I’ve met Ace!

I’ve read posts where you’ve mentioned John Hawkins, so I feel like Ace’s brother. Wait a minute, maybe that was Sadie Hawkins.
On a comment on Hotair I found a picture of him at CPAC… he looks far less homeless and dirty than I expected.
Ace is my favorite blogger.
[How interesting. You’re my least favorite commenter. -Ed.]
Sully waxing apoplectic over Ace winning the award was just as satisfying as the award-winning itself. Silver linings in the clouds, ladies and gents.
Wow. That is NOTHING like I expected Ace to look like.
AoS is only my second favorite blog, though…
PEEPS AGREE: Leaving Iraq = Economy Boost. SWEET.

//For the national election? Bring Vaseline. hint hint nudge nudge//
What, exactly, are you planning to do on that day, ochagirl…?
😉
Hooboy, I just set up a target for a whole slew of really bad comments…
🙁
@#15: It’s the allegory for this election season, unfortunately.
You must line up to experience the new direction of the Republican party. Step 1: drop pants, step 2 is picking up your petroleum jelly . . . and, and . . . yeah. You get it.
Random gay Republican after voting for McCain: “I’ve taken a few up the pooper in my time, but this is the first time I’ve felt this violated!” shiver “I feel so dirty and ashamed. How do I tell my mother that her only son . . . is a McCain supporter? Bleach can get rid of so many stains . . . but this is a stain on the soul. The sooooul.”
Don’t ban me, Frank. Plz. K thx bai.

Heh. I knew what you meant, but sorry for being facetious; can’t help it, y’know.

EWW! You filthy mormons! Bigots are gay!
So phony blue-collar patriot/commie punk John Mellencamp doesn’t want McCain to use “This Is Our Country” at his rallies any more, and the McCainaanites agreed they wouldn’t.
Let me suggest a far better song that really captures the mood right now: The Fabulous Thunderbirds’s “Wrap It Up – I’ll Take It”.

He is a leftard. It’s like there’s no distinction between Johnny Mellencamp, Bruce Springsteen, Pete Seeger and Neil Young. Even Joan Baez has a better excuse than the folksy-boys do for being such a whiny bitch; Menopause after years of using “natural” tampons can have that effect…
Just remember that when people like that sing “This Is Our Country”, they do it without anyone who doesn’t subscribe to their backwards beliefs in mind. “Our Country” in this case means “Not Yours, Conservatives”.
How ’bout McCain using Golden Years by David Bowie? Might be fitting in more ways than the obvious.
Four more years of bending over for the other party’s wants, come on. Tell John Cougar, or John Melloncamp or whatever he is calling himself that you are the real John, John McCain and you will use that song if you want!
Yup, he would not last long in the cage match. I could just imagine – here is a twenty, will you let me fake a win? Crunch crack, I guess the answer was no. Bribes don’t work in the cage match against a SEAL.
If CPAC were still actually Goldwater or Reagan Conservative, not neoconservative or theoconservative or whatever the hell passes for “true conservatism” these days, then by all rights Andrew Sullivan would have taken the prize. Alas for American Conservatism!
Also, ochagirl, I’m ever so glad that the stresses of coming out can provide such entertainment for you! (#16) Also, thanks for the “gay as a blemish on the soul” joke. Much appreciated.
Signed, oh, what was your phrase?
Ah, yes–“Random gay Republican”
(It’s called Log Cabin, by the way.)
