President Bush Meets, Arrests Sheehan

Inspired by The Right Place’s caption contest, WHYGRR is pleased to announce the “Outrage a Liberal” Headline submission contest.


The winning headline will earn the writer an
Apple iPod Shuffle (512 KB).



For a chance to win here’s all you have to do:

** Leave a comment to this post with a satirical headline you think is clever, brief, and patently offensive to Left wing sensibilities.
AND

** Blogroll me (or simply link the "UN Wars Prevented” counter to your site)

That’s it. You can enter as often as you like. Entries containing profanity or obscenities will be deleted at my discretion. That’s right, *censorship.*

Some examples from this blog are as follows:
“President Bush meets, Arrests Sheehan”
“Only Karl Rove Can Call for the Assassination of Hugo Chavez”
“Kennedy Apologizes to Nazi Soldiers Held in Allied Camps without Attorneys”

You get the idea.

The headlines are jokes – the contest is real. I can afford to give away an
iPod Shuffle to a creative writer I've never met. After all, I’m a Republican.

One winner along with runners-up will be announced mid-September. Let the Outrage begin!

So, can I just say, for the record, as a liberal... Not outraged at all by most of these headlines.

The lack of creativity, the inability for any of you to firmly grasp the concept of satire, and the flat out lack of intelligence, if anything, makes me feel sorry for you all, not outraged.

An example:
"Bush Vindicated: Saddam Hussein reveals hidden cache of WMD's."

Satire is marked by the presence of sarcasm or irony. How is the above headline sarcastic? Is the author speaking with tongue in cheek, secretly knowing that Bush will never be vindicated? If he were, this would be satire... but not offensive to the "left." Would it be "ironic" if Bush were vindicated? Irony is that very thing that you least expect. If Bush being “vindicated” for this war is the last thing that people expect, that isn’t all that hurtful to the left.

This headline... and many of the other entries... are nothing more than the shallow hopes of Conservatives, not witty satirical jabs at Liberals.

Headlines like the one above, and "War in Iraq Cures Cancer," should outrage Conservatives, not Liberals, as they satirize an event/a person that Conservatives support.

Hey, since my headline outraged a liberal so much that he left a comment on your blog, I think that means I automatically win right? I know he said he wasn't outraged, but crazy people don't think they are crazy either. (not that you are crazy matt). The task isn't to make an ironic or satirical headline, otherwise we would all try to get jobs at the onion and probably fail. the task was to "outrage a liberal". You are a liberal; I outraged you.

However if you'd like to read outrage into my liberal feedback stating that I as a liberal am not outraged (as a crazy person might), that's your prerogative. Not that you're crazy, Charlie.

Wow, Matt, way to let the air out of the baloon, Alright, party's over everyone, Matt's here.

Ahh, Matt's just a typical conflicted liberalista. For example,

"The lack of creativity, the inability for any of you to firmly grasp the concept of satire, and the flat out lack of intelligence, if anything, makes me feel sorry for you all, not outraged."

OK, satire is usually humorous* commentary ridiculing its subject. Now, this ridicule can, as Matt states elsewhere in his comment, take the form of primarily sarcastic or ironic comments often juxtaposing the image (or projected self-image) of the subject with situations or behaviors that mock the cultivated image of the subject.

But these are not always witty and deft. And indeed, the satires that quite frequently elicit the most outrage are heavy-handed cudgels.

But simple ad-hominem attacks don't _necessarily_ make good satire (although there'll _almost_ always be an element of that sort of argument in satirical commentary), and Matt is correct that some of the proposed headlines are not satire directed toward liberalistas' sensitivities.

Still, I noted a number of hedlines that fit the criteria our host set forth.

And so did Matt, apparently, in spite of his earlier statement:

"This headline... and many of the other entries... are nothing more than the shallow hopes of Conservatives, not witty satirical jabs at Liberals."

"...many of..." indiocates "not all" IOW, Matt here admits that some of the proposed headlines do indeed meet even his criteria.

Unless, of course, Matt didn't know what he was saying when he wrote those words.

Now, that would be ironic.

*BTW, humor isn't always funny. See Swift: A Modest Proposal. If you find it funny, then cannibalism is a real hoot in your house... sicko.

Well, you know what they say… every party needs a pooper. Especially a party where the point is to sh*t on other people.

In my attempt to scour the internet for a definition of “liberalista,” the best I could come up with was:

“the high-profile liberals who… have hijacked the leadership of the liberal movement and the Democratic Party”

As anyone who knows me will concur, I am nowhere near high-profile, and as I am not a Democrat, I assure you, David, this is not a definition that fits well with me. And if anyone is confused, it most certainly is not I.

It is true that satire can manifest itself in the form of strong derision. However, as the conditions for this “competition” called for headlines which one considered “clever,” I assumed that brainless “cudgeling” was not directly on par for the course.

“’...many of...’ indiocates ‘not all’ IOW, Matt here admits that some of the proposed headlines do indeed meet even his criteria.”
That’s true… I can think of one offhand… mine.

“Unless… Matt didn't know what he was saying… that would be ironic.”
No. It would be coincidental. Do not bring this nit-picky Bullsh*t, and then drop the ball, David. Don’t be that guy.

I believe you, Matt. I don't think any of these so-called "headlines" actually outraged you.

I bet this one and this one did, though.

Matt, you're a 23 year old kid. Go ahead and get outraged. I don't begrudge you a bit. Being outraged, being soooo much smarter than those around you, and having everything figured out is a blast when you're 23. I remember it well. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Being a liberal at your age is perfectly fine. In fact, if you're not a liberal at the age of 20, you don't have a heart. But, if you're still a liberal at the age of 30, you probably don't have a brain.

Well, since we can't outrage liberals, let's attempt to piss off the one liberal who's here.

Darrell,
Any time Bush speaks (whether it's declaring a "historic" victory, or speaking to professionals and experts as though they were school children), it does not outrage me... it makes me embarrassed to be an American.

"if you're not a liberal at the age of 20, you don't have a heart, etc..."
Yeah, great quote. Very quaint. I've only heard it about a million times in my 23-years of being a Kid. Here's an idea, come up with your own. Here's another, lay off the stereotypes.

I'm glad you're sooo much wiser than a kid like myself since you've been consuming oxygen for longer than I have, but when you toss around bullsh*t, Readers' Digest quotes that rely merely on the passage of time to arrive at a stereotype, you exhibit ignorance, not wisdom.

Matt: I'm glad you're sooo much wiser than a kid like myself since you've been consuming oxygen for longer than I have

Consuming oxygen for a longer period of time has nothing to do with it... Being around long enough to have figured out how to pick my fights is more of a factor. I'd suggest that making return trips to a blog where you disagree ideologically with just about everyone writing and posting comments, just so you can continue a pointless pissing contest, doesn't indicate a tremendous amount of wisdom. Most reasonable people would probably agree, though, that it is typical pissed-off-liberal-white-boy behavior.

Matt: Yeah, great quote. Very quaint. I've only heard it about a million times in my 23-years of being a Kid. Here's an idea, come up with your own. Here's another, lay off the stereotypes.

Ya know, the really annoying thing about both cliches and stereotypes is that there's usually a grain of truth in them. That's especially annoying to those who see themselves in the cliche or stereotype in question.

Oh, and the headline about Republicans gaining more seats in the House of Rep.s would hardly outrage me as I voted Republican almost straight down the ticket.

Oh. I gotcha. You're not liberal. You're just conflicted.

Or maybe you've mastered the ultimate "angry young man" scheme... you've figured out a way to be pissed off at everybody. Kudos. Marlon Brando would be proud.

Of course, I could be wrong. If I am, I'll admit it. The only way I can imagine that anything you said there makes any sense is if your position is that you're an old-fashioned FDR liberal, as opposed to a modern-day America-hating Michael Moore style liberal... and if your gripe is with so-called "neo-cons" rather than with real conservatives. It might be possible to build a cohesive argument on that premise.

If that's the case, then believe me when I say I'm happy to hear it. We need more FDR-styled liberals contributing to the national debate and fewer of the "Hillary Clinton, Howard Dean" kind.

Ray: Darrell -- I'm 42, still have a brain and I'm a liberal.

Oh, good. Try using that brain and you'll find yourself liberal-no-more. Unless you just enjoy being mislead, angry, and unwilling to do anything about it.

Let me qualify my anti-liberal remarks, both those here and the ones I've written elsewhere: When I bash liberals, I'm almost always talking about the modern-day, post-60's variety. I disagree with "old school" liberals on most issues, but I have a friendly respect for "old school" liberals, even though the only one still"consuming oxygen" that I can think of is Joe Lieberman.

Then I’ll be sure to take a grain from them, and ignore the enormous pile of manure surrounding the grain.

if your position is that you're an old-fashioned FDR liberal, as opposed to a modern-day America-hating Michael Moore style liberal

I’ll just take a grain from that and ignore the fact that you’re lumping every single liberal in America into the same category as a lower-middle class, fat, filmmaker from Michigan.

Matt:I’d be more than happy to leave and let you get back to your very fruitful, non-urinary bashing of beliefs that differ from your own.

Somehow, I doubt that. You haven't let well enough alone so far. Why start now?

I believe my “gripe,” was giving feedback on this contest

And, if I am reading you correctly, you believe that this contest amounts to a bunch of idiots having fun by making fun of beliefs that we don't share. Alright. Just for the sake of the academic argument, let's say that you're right. You made your point with your first comment. What do you hope to accomplish by continuing? Judging from the tone and content, it looks like your goal is simply to aggravate people who disagree with you philosophically... to rain on their parade.

I think I judged you too quickly. Maybe you are one of the modern liberals, with nothing real to contribute beyond your own shrill ranting. So far, everything you've said has amounted to little more than "I know what you are, but what am I?"

Your comments have been snide and vaguely self-congratulatory. My responses to your comments have largely been similar. I did try, however, to engage you in a little more serious debate with the last part of my most recent comment. It really did interest me that you voted a strict Republican ticket but consider yourself a liberal. As polarized at politics tend to be these days, I'm sure I'm not the only person who'd find that surprising. I suppose, though, that given the context of your contributions here, it was fruitless of me to try to pursue my interest in that with my last comment.

Regardless, Matt, I've just read at least half of the items at your own blog, and while I disagree with you about a great deal of it, there are things there that I agree with. It seems from several of your posts that you do have a problem, though, with attacking the syntax of arguments you disagree with when you can't really counter the content itself. (As in, topic three of this post, the "suicide bomber" gaffe in this post, and most of this post). To my way of thinking, that's really all you've done here as well.

I'm going to post a link to the story you mentioned about stem cells in umbilical cords, and I plan to hat tip your blog for the story. If you have a problem with that, e-mail me and I'll remove the credit.

I'll let you have the last word with regard to this particular pissing contest. I think I know what to expect from you, so have at it.
