Seeing Chelsea through the conservative mind:


See? You just have to have the special conservative goggles to see things clearly, as they should be. /sarcasm

9. Instead of hustling cute little hearts
maybe Skinner should sell big, flashing "Parody" beacons. It would seem there's a desperate need for them in some quarters around here these days.

For the Satirically Challenged: the OP is a parody mocking the Right Wing search for "scandal." It also points out the hypocritical degree to which said standards are/were NOT applied to the scions of Famigilia Bush.

All better?

10. Don't post this crap here.
I'd be willing to bet Chelsea wouldn't appreciate you posting images with arrows pointing to her nipples, not even with the disclaimer that "It's okay, It's Parody!!!"

It's still sexist shit. We get enough of that, she gets enough of it, as it is.

13. oh noes! another one!
If you don't own this website, please DO NOT tell me what to post...

Take your authoritarian attitude somewhere else, please...

Better yet, maybe *you* can contact Ms. Clinton and see what she thought of matt drudge's comments? Let us know how that goes, ok?

11. Drudge really described the photo that way?
"Bedroom pleasures", and "an erect state"?

My god, that says more about his own perversions than anything else. How could anyone read that into such an innocent photo? That man has problems.

thanks for the kick! If you *really* wanted it to go away, you wouldn't post a reply and kick it back to the top of the page for others to see...

If some of you can't see the hypocrisy of the conservative mind, I can't help you...

Maybe you should visit http://www.republicansexoffenders.com and get a look at some more hypocrisy from the party of family values..

23. You need an arrow pointing to that, too?
Summary: It's okay for me to post sexually demeaning misogynistic tripe about a woman. It's wrong when the right does it. I'm just doing it myself here as a demonstration of how wrong it is when conservatives do it. When the right does it, they think it's funny because they are hypocrites. When I do it, I think it's funny because because I have a good sense of humor.

24. Well now I see your problem more clearly...
it's a comprehension impairment...

Nowhere, and I mean NOWHERE, did I say it was "wrong" for the rightwingers to post the picture. In fact, if you can read at all, the commentary at the top says the picture was coming out in "PEOPLE Magazine". The hypocrisy was in Matt Drudge's comments about Chelsea being "caught in an erect state" and saying that "her face showed evidence of 'bedroom pleasures'", yet the rightwingers were perfectly ok with pictures of Jenna drunkenly acting the way she was. Not to mention the pictures of Jenna & Not Jenna engaging in underaged drinking in a bar. The right wingers were appalled, not at the actions of the twins, but that someone dared to print the pictures, especially in the National Enquirer... you know, the first place that got anthrax and someone died?

There was absolutely NOTHING wrong with the picture as it appeared in PEOPLE Magazine. The "arrows" and commentary is a humorous analogy of what the hypocritical right wing thinks was wrong, then again, humorously, points out "rightwinger" thinking that the Bush daughters are innocent little angels who were "just letting loose" for a while.

I hope that clears things up for you a bit, though I know it probably won't. Having interacted with you before, I know when you are on one of your femi-nazi crusades.

Please find something else to be outraged about, I'm getting bored here... but I *do* appreciate the kicks you keep giving this thread.

:hi:

26. It's called humor.
I realize we're all supposed to feel pissed off and guilty all the time, but maybe a smile or chuckle once in a while won't hurt.

32. It's called sexual harassment
and posting a photo labeled like that of any woman without her permission is pathetic. Even if it makes you laugh.

Harassment is like that - understanding the concept requires actually putting yourself in the other person's shoes, rather than deciding it's cool to post demeaning photos of women because it makes you laugh from your smug position of superiority.

35. would you feel that way if I posted a photo of your mother
or wife or daughter - with arrows to their nipples and implications they were masturbating in it, and posted it on a forum with thousands of viewers without their permission?

I don't know what else to call it when people make unwanted sexual comments about a person publicly to demean them. If you don't view that as sexual harassment I'm glad you aren't one of my coworkers.

38. Thanks for keeping this thread kicked!
For someone who doesn't like it or agree with it, you sure are doing your fair share of kicking it when it sinks to the 2nd or 3rd page...

Muchas gracias, amiga!

39. I didn't click on the video because TV judges tend to irritate me.
However, it's offensive for you to imply that I abuse my wife in any way. It shows a lot about you and your personal biases.

29. Holy shit that's funny!
Snarky and so on target. :)

I don't understand how some people don't get the satire or humor in this. Memo to those without a sense of humor: pull the stick out of your butt and start enjoying some of the amusing things in life a little bit.

It's part of some sort of martyr complex.

33. Drudge is back, and taking Billo's and Rush's jobs away!
I think that people are getting confused here.

Let's start, shall we?

The picture is from People magazine, sans comments. Drudge took the picture and made some rather lewd remarks about Chelsea, just as Rush did years ago when Bill was in the white house.

They made Chelsea sound like an animal (dog) and now, they want to say she's a whore. The general gist of the thing.

Well, this website (Dirt, I believe?) has decided to parody Drudge and the whole right wing, by taking their mindset, and seeing just what they think is in that particular, completely NON-offensive picture. THAT's what the picture is saying, AND, just so no one else gets confused, DIRT sounds like it's very much to the left and is of the same mold as other great parody sites, especially The Onion, which is just better known.

If Chelsea saw the picture and saw where it was from, she would likely laugh, having a good sense of humor herself.
