Mea wanker culpa? I don't think so.

None dare call it "accountability":



And that should come as no surprise. After all, if I'd predicted something this jaw-droppingly moronic, I'd be a bit touchy about people bringing it up again and whacking me in the nads with it over and over and over and over and over.

Accountability: it's only for progressives.

FORESHADOWING: More coming here soon ...

SPANKING THE RETARD: This is going to drive poor LuLu bugfuck since she's the one who is constantly begging me, "Don't poke the retard," but there is a lesson to be learned here, so pay attention -- it's why we on Not-Batshit-Crazy Planet find it so utterly unproductive to argue with the residents of Idiotville. This story is not just about one idiot -- it should be used as a lesson in recognizing the deranged craziness of, well, deranged crazy people. And so, to work.

It begins here, where my esteemed co-blogger PSA opines as follows:

Canada is now likely to record a budgetary deficit for the first time in over ten years.

Hold on ... what was that again?

Canada is now likely to record a budgetary deficit for the first time in over ten years.

One more time, to make sure there's no misunderstanding:

Canada is now likely to record a budgetary deficit for the first time in over ten years.

Now, what exactly is happening here? What's happening is that PSA -- as all sane people will recognize because they're, you know, sane -- is making a prediction. He's not claiming what is happening right now; no, he is prognosticating what will happen in the future, that interpretation being kind of obvious by his choice of words, "is now likely to record." Did you catch that? No, really, who among you is too much of a mental cripple to notice that we're dealing with future tense? Seriously, let's not go any further until we're all good with that. You good with that? Excellent. Movin' on.

Add to this now a moderately important observation -- PSA was right. He was eventually proven correct. That's important to remember, too, for what comes next, because what comes next is just all kinds of awesome.

So now we ask -- what would an abysmally stupid person's reaction be to PSA's prediction? Well, it's hard to say since you can't really praise or condemn someone's prediction until time has passed. So, technically, when someone makes a prediction, the best you can do is say, "Well, let's just wait and see." Really, what other avenue is there?

Actually, one other avenue is, if you're the Mullet that Walks Like a Man, to go totally, batshit fucking crazy with rage and make the world's biggest asshole of yourself, as you can read from these carefully-chosen excerpts from the comments section of that post. (And, as you read these snippets, keep firmly in mind that PSA's prediction was right):

Let's move those goalposts, baby... MOVE 'EM! ...

You posted this particular turd ...

Which is really my favourite thing about you: no matter how wrong you're proven to be, no matter how dishonest, somehow, in your mind, it always has to be the other person who's stupid and dishonest.

And maybe among your fellow hateful blinkering ideologues that holds water. But to the rest of us -- you know, people who actually use their brains as something other than what we use to keep our skulls from collapsing -- we'll always recognize you for precisely what you are.

Just another hateful demagogue...

... you weren't "correct". You were wrong, wrong, wrong. Anyone with a shread [sic] of honesty would be embarrassed to be quite this wrong...

Becuase [sic] that's how you fucking budget, moron.

Go back and soak in the shrieking, bowel-emptying rage directed against someone who turned out to be completely correct. Is that awesome or what? Seriously, is that not just the most fantastic example of cocking the trigger and blowing off both of your feet and one of your nads with one shot? God, but it's delightful -- the ongoing (to this day, in fact) fury venting against someone who was dead-on right.

And yet ... and yet ... when history has proven PSA right and Twatsy about $50 billion worth of hideously fucking wrong, what happens when Twatsy is called on it? What happens when someone has the effrontery to point out that Twatsy fucked up spectacularly? Oh, sweet Jesus, look at the indifference from the mulleted one:



That's right. While stupid fucking Twatsy drooled and screeched and fumed and vented insanely against someone who turned out to be right, his reaction to being hauled out and spanked in public for being howlingly wrong is simply, "Hey, let's not revisit the past, not interested, moving on."

And that, kids, is why no one here takes idiots like Twatsy seriously. Him and the weaselly douchebags that make up Stephen Taylor's stable of ignorant racists and intellectual sacks of sand over at the Blogging Tories. These are not people who are capable of actual discourse, and there's little point arguing whether they're hopelessly stupid or cripplingly dishonest because, in the end, does it really make any difference? Hmmmmmmm?

And now I'll go check if the New York Times has linked here again. They're good about that.

DEAR HR FOLKS: Just in case Twatsy ever applies for a job with you, and Google drops you somewhere in the vicinity, for the love of God, drop me an e-mail. We will have the most spectacularly entertaining conversation you can possibly imagine.

DEAR GOOGLE: Patrick Ross ... dumbass retard ... physically violent ... obsessive stalker ... restraining order.

Yeah, that should do it for now.
