Good news: Feminist author won’t be voting “with [her] vagina”
posted at 6:40 pm on March 18, 2008 by Allahpundit
Well, this is awkward. Am I … not allowed to vote with my schwanz now? I was counting on this whole identity politics thing carrying through to the general and suddenly I’m caught off guard. Next thing you know, they’ll be telling me Barack Obama doesn’t want 9/11 apologists in his campaign. It is still cool to vote based on genitalia and/or racial heritage, isn’t it?
Among Williamson’s brilliant ideas, incidentally: the Department of Peace.

Good. It makes the buttons all sticky.
Hey, it was that or something about hanging chads.
davidk on March 18, 2008 at 6:43 PM
Remind me to take a baby wipe with me into the voting booth.
Tantor on March 18, 2008 at 6:44 PM
Didn’t Ray Nagin say he was gonna vote his vagina, or something like that? If you’re a dem looking for leadership, it’s a puzzling year.
JiangxiDad on March 18, 2008 at 6:45 PM
I’m pretty flexible, especially when I’m in shape, but I’m not that flexible. Besides, I live in Austin, I’d have to wonder where those voting dials have been (yuck). I have too much respect for my vagina to try and vote with it.
Sekhmet on March 18, 2008 at 6:46 PM
Just saw the video. What the hell is she talking about. And what the hell is “Daily Cafe”?
Vizzini on March 18, 2008 at 6:46 PM
As a devoted feminist, peacenick her uses for a vagina may be limited in scope anyway.
Speakup on March 18, 2008 at 6:48 PM
On the next TMI Post…
amerpundit on March 18, 2008 at 6:48 PM
You beat me to it.
I believe Oprah would publicized her books. So she’s voting the way her television promoter is. Smart move:)
terryannonline on March 18, 2008 at 6:49 PM
Oh for the love of,now we won’t know
who left or right is.Only the centre!
canopfor on March 18, 2008 at 6:49 PM
what is a schwanz?
SoCalInfidel on March 18, 2008 at 6:50 PM
*Cough.*
amerpundit on March 18, 2008 at 6:51 PM
Oh, voting with my schwanz ….. where do I begin?
When Adult Bookstores become polling places.
Till then, it rubber gloves all the way.
Kini on March 18, 2008 at 6:51 PM
That’s good, I guess. That would be pretty gross to be ready to cast your vote and see a slimy snail-trail on the voting machine. :D
Afterimage on March 18, 2008 at 6:51 PM
Uff Da!
Chakra Hammer on March 18, 2008 at 6:52 PM
you know, out of all the terms for that part of the body…I think Allah could of picked a much better one than schwanz….Kind of flashes me back to spaceballs…..I see your schwartz is as big as mine!

This brings “touch screens” into a whole new light…
d1carter on March 18, 2008 at 6:56 PM
The innuendo is limitless.
amerpundit on March 18, 2008 at 6:56 PM
Now I am perplexed,she wants to create and not destroy,
obvisouly she’s not talking about birth,and she’s not going to use her New Orleans to vote for Hillary,but is sounds
like she is going to use her New Orleans to vote for Obama,
the new Femenism,a more kinder and gentler Femenazi approach
I guess!
canopfor on March 18, 2008 at 6:58 PM
I like the “Mini Taco’s” easy to make in the oven! >:D
(Eat them with Sour Cream)
Also good ice cream.
Chakra Hammer on March 18, 2008 at 7:00 PM
That’s what we yanks call talking out the other orifice.
Kini on March 18, 2008 at 7:01 PM
I nominate Eliot Spitzer as Secretary of Peice.
RobCon on March 18, 2008 at 7:03 PM
I’d hate to be the poor bastard that votes after you…
doubleplusundead on March 18, 2008 at 7:04 PM
At my precinct, it’d be easier to hold the felt pen and, er, fill in the holes with her hand.
Django on March 18, 2008 at 7:06 PM
Dang. Did that woman express introspective self-criticism? That’s worth more to their cause then all the bra burnings.
Spirit of 1776 on March 18, 2008 at 7:07 PM
How would yo….?
Wouldn’t she have t…..?
You don’t mea…….?
Oh, for the love of Mike!

Schwan’s is a national frozen-food-delivery service that was popular in rural Oklahoma. For frozen food, it’s pretty good. Their trucks come around to your house and deliver it.
Not sure why Allah misspelled it, though.
Mmm, I haven’t eaten any nice hot Schwan’s since high school.
see-dubya on March 18, 2008 at 7:07 PM
Dangit, Chakra beat me to the punch.
see-dubya on March 18, 2008 at 7:08 PM
AP, the voting is not bad, it’s the public display after being dipped in purple dye that is annoying.
BL@KBIRD on March 18, 2008 at 7:11 PM
Is it OK to vote with one’s buttocks? I want to be gender neutral, you know.
flipflop on March 18, 2008 at 7:11 PM
As a feminist peacenick with a vagina, of course she sees more to like in the policies of Barack Obama: he’s a p___y.
rockbend on March 18, 2008 at 7:12 PM
Nothing wrong with a Department of Peace, so long as it has the subtitle through superior firepower.
NeoconNews.com on March 18, 2008 at 7:13 PM
I’m jealous..I can’t get my vagina to any of these tricks, let alone vote for me!
Pam on March 18, 2008 at 7:15 PM
*snort*
flipflop on March 18, 2008 at 7:16 PM
Dude, Pam, that is the most NSFW link ever posted on hot air.
see-dubya on March 18, 2008 at 7:16 PM
No kidding..now I’m wondering if that wasn’t that magic ink that was being used in Chicago voting districts…
Pam on March 18, 2008 at 7:18 PM
I’m sorry
Pam on March 18, 2008 at 7:19 PM
Hillary’s still hoping to snatch a victory here.
mikeyboss on March 18, 2008 at 7:25 PM
Ja wir können! (yes we can)
…just watch out for those hanging chads….
Lockstein13 on March 18, 2008 at 7:25 PM
Doh.
SouthernGent on March 18, 2008 at 7:27 PM

SoCalInfidel on March 18, 2008 at 7:29 PM
Is that a hanging chad or….
DANEgerus on March 18, 2008 at 7:31 PM
schwanztucker from Young Frankenstein would be a much better word don’t you think?
flytier on March 18, 2008 at 7:34 PM
She won’t? Well why the hell not? She uses it for everything else apparently.
On a more serious note,I really dislike people like this.
Grayson on March 18, 2008 at 7:37 PM
Gosh, Pam, if you can’t even get your own vagina to vote for you, perhaps you should think of a career outside of politics.
mikeyboss on March 18, 2008 at 7:37 PM
Thats what we yanks call talking out the other orifice.
Kini on March 18,2008 at 7:01PM.
Kini:10-4,haha,I’m glad the leftys are trying to sink their
own political ship,I don’t think I can laugh anymore
tonight.

Good times…good times.

I haven’t named any of my twig or berries, but not of them would be Chad
Earlier today I was thinking Captain Nemo–and that was before I even knew of this post!

Uh…dude?
Jaibones on March 18, 2008 at 7:44 PM
This just doesnt pass the smell test.
firepilot on March 18, 2008 at 7:52 PM
I’ve got a feeling that if you were following her into the booth you’d be better armed with a dust buster….Those things work great on cobwebs as well as dust….
Just sayin’
BigWyo on March 18, 2008 at 7:53 PM
Her vagina is crazey as a loon.
TheSitRep on March 18, 2008 at 8:06 PM
Am I … not allowed to vote with my schwanz now?
soundingboard on March 18, 2008 at 8:18 PM
An hour and a half, and nobody’s made a stuffing the ballot box joke?
soundingboard on March 18, 2008 at 8:21 PM
Also, parting the curtains of the booth.
mikeyboss on March 18, 2008 at 8:22 PM
Well that explains it.
ronsfi on March 18, 2008 at 8:23 PM
That would seem appropriate, we usually end up voting for some @ssh0le anyway.
soundingboard on March 18, 2008 at 8:23 PM
Now, that’s a phrase I never thought I’d read on HA.
I’m just gonna back slowly away from it.
soundingboard on March 18, 2008 at 8:31 PM
I for one, plan to vote with my spine. I’ll pick the canidate who has one.
Or maybe I’ll vote with my pancreas…. but not with my brain. I don’t trust him.
Capitana on March 18, 2008 at 8:40 PM
“First of all, if I were voting with my hoohoo, Hillary would get it. My vote I mean.”
Akzed on March 18, 2008 at 8:41 PM
Isn’t that the truth!
Pam on March 18, 2008 at 8:56 PM
Is it OK to pitch a tent while waiting in line to vote?
Hog Wild on March 18, 2008 at 9:48 PM
So I’m guessing she didn’t vote for Bush.
aero on March 18, 2008 at 10:35 PM
A “schwanz” is a type of indwelling catheter that is used to measure heart pressures. It is call a Schwanz Ganz Catheter.
* I amuse myself. lol.
bloggless on March 18, 2008 at 10:38 PM
She wants a guy who’s weak, not a woman who is strong.
And I want a voting booth shaped like a furry parabola.
profitsbeard on March 18, 2008 at 10:50 PM
aero-
Pithy!
LOL!
profitsbeard on March 18, 2008 at 11:07 PM
Thank you! I’ll be here all week. (rimshot)
aero on March 18, 2008 at 11:13 PM
Okay.
Tantor,
Remember to take a baby wipe with you when you go into the voting booth. (Grin ;>
Also, don’t forget to take hand sanitizer.
For good measure, you might wish to wear latex gloves under plumber’s gloves, and wear at least a dust mask over your face.
If a left wing, liberal, democrat was in the booth before you, you’ll probably want a HAZMAT team to decontaminate the entire building that houses the voting booths, and every thing in it, including all the voting booths, before you go within 100 yards of the property.
Also, do you have all your most important inoculations?
William2006 on March 18, 2008 at 11:55 PM
Last election I tried to vote with my schwanz, but they threw me out of the polls and threatened to call the police.
Buford on March 19, 2008 at 1:38 AM
I prefer the more highbrow sounding “tallywhacker”
Wanderlust on March 19, 2008 at 2:54 AM
Schwan’s was started in MN, it’s still around.. :)

Oh my gott… I ain’t even watched the video yet.
Ya’ll are terrible.
Ever try stifle a belly laugh at 4 in the morning?
WayWard Fundamentalist Christian on March 19, 2008 at 3:58 AM
The idea of voting with your vagina reminded me of something from the world of music.
Many people claim that they know someone who never took any formal training in music, but who, somehow, are magically talented heads and shoulders above the rest. These people know someone who can play anything from ear, or they claim that they, themselves, can play anything by ear.
I’d like to see them try!
The last time I tried to play piano, cello, trumpet, saxophone, guitar, timpani, or any musical instrument by ear, I ended up getting a flute removed from my inner ear in the emergency room. I also had bruises from playing the piano by ear. The bruises lasted four weeks!
Also, the music sounded terrible! In fact, it was cacophonous. It wasn’t even music!
No, they can’t play music by ear, and I doubt that this woman ever pulled a lever, or voted by using her vagina.
The imagery, however, is fascinating!
William2006 on March 19, 2008 at 4:05 AM
AP has once again delivered. KUDOS to AP and HA. What are we going to do for political humor when LIBS are extinct???
pueblo1032 on March 19, 2008 at 11:49 AM
I’m not going to vote with her vagina either. Who’s with me?
