The Folks at Wonkette.com are bloody wack.
This piece on Nader had me on the floor tonight, so for posterity, I'm lifting it, along with the coments. You have to read the coments, right to the end. They get really progressivly sicker and funnier.
ENJOY!

…Or You Could Just Not Give Ralph Nader Money

Ralph Nader spent 1000 man-hours coming up with this fundraising plea: “I’ve had a lot of hummus. Hummus is nutritious. And delicious. It makes you stronger and healthier. So, Bloomberg’s report on the Lebanese claim to hummus got me to thinking about an idea that would help us raise funds to push our substantive agenda onto the front burner of American politics. If you donate to Nader/Gonazlez by midnight tonight an amount that has the number three in it (three being the number of lemons in my mom’s hummus recipe), we’ll e-mail to you Rose Nader’s hummus recipe tomorrow.” Eh, sorry, we don’t have e-mail.

It’s your choice. [Photo] CrabtreesBludgeon says at 4:03 pm, October 9th, 2008 - Reply Wait - this is REAL? This did not come from the twisted minds of our beloved Wonkette overlords?!

[Photo] Weeping Jesus says at 9:50 pm, October 9th, 2008 - Reply Is Nader’s partner really named “Gonazlez”? That’s pronounced: “Gone assless”, you know.

(and Poland) Damn, I love me some hummus, but why would anyone want to go to the effort of making it themselves when the shit they sell at Costco is pennies a ton. That stuff with the blue and white lid, whateverthehell its called? “Mesa” or somesuch. Freaking addicting. And dirt cheap! I spread that stuff on Ritz crackers, wheat toast, nutter butter’s, my wife’s breasts; everything, man. Absolutley dee-lish. [Photo] JRD says at 2:14 am, October 10th, 2008 - Reply You know most of you people on this site deserve what our government is doling out to you.
Nader is brilliant, and has been right for a very long time. He deserves respect, not your idiotic blathering. GROW UP, or maybe you like bending over and letting our government shove it up your _ _ _. [Photo] NotLaughing says at 2:31 am, October 10th, 2008 - Reply JRD: What’s the first letter of - - -?

Take a picture, quick! Oh wait, it’s just Ralph. Never mind. [Photo] JRD says at 1:36 pm, October 10th, 2008 - Reply No it’s not Ralph, but it is a Ralph Nader supporter. I’ll give you half right. Your getting better!
