Quote of the year
Posted by Scott on Friday 4 July 2008, 2:06 pm Categories: Media, Politics Tags: AndrewBolt, Left/Right |
In Bolt’s world there’s Left, there’s Right, and then there’s Bolt.
“…I’m not of the Right or even far Right. I’d certainly say so if I were. Try conservative.”
Reminds me of Andy’s famous Left/Right/Anarchy theory.
…there is no arc between Left and Right - the extremes of both tend to huddle together at the collectivist end of a line that has anarchy at the other. I’m somewhere in the middle, moderate as always, trying to balance the claims of individuality and freedom with the ballast of the collective.
Looks a bit like this.

That’s a very phallic looking diagram, Ed.

So he’s got a very long, thin penis with tiny blue balls and orange spunk through his ears?

I couldn’t see it. Thanks Keri, I do enjoy the way your mind works.

Can’t help it, EC.
My mind is in the gutter. And every time I look at the star I see a rude constellation and resume giggling.

I think the graphic gives a fair representation of Andy’s position.
A malignant growth in the middle of your cock.

I see it differently Keri.
Bolt’s brain has just been skewered by an enormous nobbing machine. He get’s this medical treatment every week.

remember all the laughs Steve Martin got with a fake arrow through his head?
Bolt is a lot less funny.

Actually, Ed, It seems to me that Andrew Bolt gave you a much more considered response than your silly post deserves , you produce a jargon laden , willfully obsuce response to the Abforum and you get a polite reasonable response in return . If it proves any one is full of excreta I am sure that person is not Andrew Bolt.

Too many commas used correctly in the first two words, John. FAIL.

I’d certainly say so if I were.
And I, for one, believe him. Know why? Because in the 10 years we’ve been reading his amazingly prescient words (for instance, did you know he knew the Iraq war was won at least two years before the Americans knew they’d won it?), he’s been nothing if not honest, balanced and ethical.

The egg council has got to you too!

You’d better run, egg!

perhaps it’s the “fake-ness” of the arrow through Bolt’s head that’s the problem, surely he’d get a heap more laughs with a real one.
