I wonder if the family's memorial service for Mrs. Baron yesterday was anything like the Paul Wellstone Funeral Jamboree her fellow liberals held in nearby Minnesota last year.

Probably didn't have the same level of respect and solemnity.

With agents like Bill Clinton and Larry Flynt, a very special angel indeed.

Dozens of people from around the United States have written to The Capital Times saying they will make donations to various organizations in her name, and the request was aired on national TV Thursday night.

Dozens of people. Wow! Bush had might as well throw in the towel right now.

A joke that was repeated by several on the site was whether Baron would keep voting after her death.,/i>

That wasn't a joke. It was sad comment on our times.

This action epitomizes that which we mock about the political left. She had a child die at 21 of leukemia. Rather that asking that donations be made to the leukemia society, she wants them sent to the criminal enterprise known as the DemocRATic party. I don't know whether she is an angel in the afterlife, but in her life on earth she was clearly a fool.

Baron "has become a sort of poster girl for all of us who despise George Bush," wrote Nancy Tonies of Appleton.

Keep on spreadin' that homegrown HATE, Nancy baby! It helped us immensely in 2002, and it'll help us even more in 2004! Keep up the good work, bimbo! BWA-HAAAA!

I know this is off subject, but when Mrs. Bat and I saw that "tent revival", we did the ROFL thing and went to bed knowing that we had won...

You're quoted in this article! (Which is surprisingly objective, given the source.)

The descendants, no doubt, of the turn of the century Communists and Anarchists that Europe expunged like a fat turd only to wash up on these shores in Wisconsin, Minnesota and the Dakotas.

"Whatever else this article says pales in importance next to this useful insult. I really do like it," a freerepublic.com poster wrote.

Can anybody please provide a link to the thread with this quote?

"Has this insult been around long? If so, I'm sorry I missed it. I'm going to try to slip it into every conversation I have today," someone called "LanPB01" wrote on the same site."

She couldn't even get her insult right.

The proper term is "whistle dick".

Baron's favorite nickname for Bush, which she used to shout at the TV, was "whistle ass."

I recall hearing the term "whistle britches" in Texas, usually referring to a lout or self-important, egotistical liar. Perhaps it was a cleaned-up version of "whistle ass". I have no idea of the origin of the term. Railroad slang? A web search indicates that corduroy pants are also known as 'whistle britches'.
