Whoopi story in German media; 'conservative organizations on the internet' is mentioned.

"Spiegel-Online" ^ | July 15, 2004 | "Spiegel-Online"

"Spiegel-Online" wrote a report about Free Republic after their poll was freeped earlier this spring.

In this article, FR is not mentioned, but I'll bet that "conservative organizatons on the internet" is FR.

conservative organizations on the internet threatened a boycott

LOL!

Reminds me of a joke when I was a kid:
" I don't belong to an organized church - I'm a Baptist".

[Conspiracy Guy]

ve stand in der vey of de final solution.

That's hard to say, Dog. Germans tend to like witty or enterprising events, such as a freep.

I think "Spiegel" may actually enjoy FR, because "Spiegel" is witty and pun-oriented with their article titles, as FR can be.

This article doesn't put Kerry in a good light either.

My question is from the translation and explanation of "gutter English."

Is there secondary female genitalia?

[chainsaw]

It has been said that one's upbringing and education can be judged by the way they use the English (or any other) language to express and convey their thoughts. Need I say more about Whoopi and/or several other Hollywood types.

Ah-hah! We guerillas have used our tons cklick co-ordinating to succeed in tilting the turning again! :^)

You mean, you haven't found it yet? You're missing out.

[Jess Kitting]

Conservative republicans were indignant that Goldberg had made sexual insinuations about the last name of the president. In gutter English, "Bush" is also synonymous with primary female genitalia.

Remember Jesse Jackson's slogan for the 2000 election: "Stay out the Bushes!"
Now we know what he was getting at. Maybe Jesse should've heeded his own advice.

Moi! I surrender.

[mewzilla]

Isn't everything conservative compared to Der Spiegel?

[asgardshill]

Is there secondary female genitalia?

Oh yes. Tertiary as well. Further deponent sayeth not.

[OldFriend]

Considering all the things they could have called us, I'd say we got a very fair shake and the article was very fair too.

[McGavin999]

I think the smarter euros are starting to figure out that President Bush may very well have a second term. It was risky enough to insult America through President Bush when they thought only half the country supported him, but by now they're figuring out that it was the half with jobs and money to spend on German products.

My question is from the translation and explanation of "gutter English."

Is there secondary female genitalia?

That was difficult for me to figure out how to translate.

I ended up using the literal translation, primary. I guess it could have been main or first or initial, etc., female genitalia.

I think they were trying to say the outer or first stage, but since I wasn't sure, I went with the literal (and machine) translation.

But , what the heck, it should make for some quite interesting comments.

I didn't know we threatened a boycott, I thought we were actually boycotting? I don't think slim fast should get off that easy. I think the boycott should continue until Whoopi and the company gives a real apology. It may never happen but then the boycott never ends.

You need tons click "co-ordinating"
