Jeffrey Toobin’s stroke of misfortune
The Spectator ^ | October 20, 2020 | Lee Smith

Posted on 10/21/2020 7:44:39 AM PDT by Carl Vehse

That’s the title of The Spectator Oct. 20th article, which stated in part:

Jeffrey Toobin is a man much wronged. On Monday, the New Yorker writer was suspended by the magazine for which he’s written for two decades, and took a leave of absence from CNN, where’s he served as a legal affairs analyst since 2002. What possible sin could he have committed that forced these pillars of the media establishment to sideline a bonafide star with the presidential election less than two weeks away and Team Joe Biden needing every hand on deck?

Toobin masturbated during a Zoom video conference in which he and his colleagues fantasized about forcibly removing Donald Trump from office and throwing him in jail. In other words, Toobin is being punished for having the precise response that the exercise was designed to elicit.

Old joke: Toobin thought the call was a debate, and he’s a master at that.

Why should Toobin be punished for an act encouraged for Kindergartners?

Few remember, a long time ago, when Toobin was a Freeper with the incredibly boring name "a writer".

It was during the Clinton impeachment and he came her ostensibly seeking "information" for his book, but most of us knew he was only trying to coax inflammatory quotes he could use against the group to portray us all as blood thirsty psychos.

Everybody abused him pretty good for a few days and he faded away, but he kept his Freeper account and every once in a while, I'd notice him popping in to make some lame liberal comment.

Oh and I hear his book included some inflammatory Freeper comments, but nobody read it.

Who’s zoomin’ who?
Aretha Franklin

Ooh, boy, uh-huh
Ah, yeah
Oh, oh, oh, oh, ah, yeah
You walked in on the sly
Scopin’ for love
In the crowd, I caught your eye
You can’t hide your stuff
you thought I’d be naive and tame
(You met your match) but I beat you at your own game, oh
take another look, tell me baby
(Who’s zoomin’ who) who’s zoomin’ who?
(Who’s zoomin’ who?) now the fish jumped off the hook
Didn’t I baby (who’s zoomin’ who?)
take another look, tell me baby
(Who’s zoomin’ who) who’s zoomin’ who?
(Who’s zoomin’ who?) the fish jumped off the hook
(Who’s zoomin’ who?) yea-a-ah
Guess you believed the world
Playin’ by your rules
Here stands an experienced girl
I ain’t nobody’s fool, uh, bump you
you thought you had me covered, now, boy
(I’ve got your bait) but you’re bound to be my lover, oh
take another look, tell me baby
(Who’s zoomin who?) who’s zoomin’ who?
(Who’s zoomin’ who?) the fish jumped off the hook, didn’t I, baby?
yea-a-ah
(Who’s zoomin’ who?) take another look, tell me, baby (who’s zoomin’ who?)
Who’s foolin’ who? (who’s zoomin’ who?)
Well, the fish jumped of the hook now, didn’t I, baby?
(Who’s zoomin’ who?) ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
You think you’re smooth and you can pick and choose
When the time is right
Just look behind, you’ll be surprised to find
Gonna make you mine tonight, oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, yeah, yeah now, yeah
take another look and tell me, baby
(Who’s zoomin’ who?) well, the fish jumped off the hook, didn’t I, boy?
(Who’s zoomin’ who?) oh, take another look, tell me, babe
(Who’s zoomin’ who?) didn’t I, didn’t I, didn’t I, oh
(Who’s zoomin’ who?) sing it out now, child, tell me, babe
(Who’s zoomin’ who?) who’s foolin’ who?
(Who’s zoomin’ who?) take another look and tell me, babe
(Who’s zoomin’ who?) yeah
(Who’s zoomin’ who?) fish in the sea, but they ain’t me
(Who’s zoomin’ who?) sure right, yeah, yeah
(Who’s zoomin’ who?) take another look, tell me, boy
(Who’s zoomin’ who?) oh, oh
(Who’s zoomin’ who?) you will remember my name
(Who’s zoomin’ who?) I’m the one who beat you at your game
(Who’s zoomin’ who?) ah, take another look, tell me, sweet thing
(Who’s zoomin’ who?) who’s zoomin’, who’s foolin’, who’s zoomin, who’s foolin’?
(Who’s zoomin’ who?) ooh-ooh, ooh boy
(Who’s zoomin’ who?)

So, misfortune, eh? Like it’s an act of God, not something he himself is entirely responsible for.

Misfortune is when a meteor crashes into your roof. Whipping it out on camera is a different thing entirely.

I knew it wouldn’t take long for the toobinheads to come out and try to cover for this sleazeball.

ZWI...

Confused “election simulation” with “erection stimulation”.

Toobin is a “member” of the Carlos Dangler Self-Amusement Marching and Chowder Society.

Toobin needs to take the situation in hand.
