In 2008, you arguably managed to have a large impact on a Presidential race. In 2011, you're reduced to trying to figure out who has been "punking" you on the internet, and complaining that we use "bathroom language"? That's really gotta suck. Where to start....
I guess I'll start by giving you a hand with modern coloquial English. "Shit", I will admit, can reasonably be called bathroom language. When we refer to you as a "shithead", it is reasonable to accuse us of using bathroom language. The thing is, we don't actually call you a shithead all that often. (I'm pretty sure that I'm right on that, but I'm too lazy to do the actual research to see if it's correct. Of course, so are you, so you'll probably still have to take my word for it.) Anyway...
As I was saying, "shithead" is certainly bathroom language, but we really don't call you a shithead very much. You are a shithead, and will almost certainly remain a shithead, but we're much more likely to use the adjective "fucking" to refer to you. Common examples of this include "fucking idiot", "fucking moron", and (probably the most common example) "fucking asshole". I don't know about you, Jerry, but most of us don't normally fuck in the bathroom. It would therefore be more accurate to accuse us of using "bedroom" language.
Moving on to the slightly more substantive points...
Jerry, we'd really love to take credit for punking you. We'd love to be able to punk you on a regular basis. But we can't. You've become auto-punking. You're a self-opening pinata. Nothing we could possibly tell you would be dumber to believe than the shit (yes, that one was "bathroom language") you manage to come up with all on your own. Seriously, man, come on. You published - on the website of a news organization that has a White House credentialed reporter, no less - accusations about a prominent Democrat that you obtained from Ed freaking Hale. You were in his den, in front of a loud-ass air conditioner, and he was in his underwear. We couldn't make up anything that good if we tried. Nobody would believe it. Hell, we don't fucking believe it, and we've all seen the video. We can't punk you. All we can do is point and laugh.
Oh, and before I forget, how'd your conversation with that legal assistance you arranged for Orly go? The one you had after she was done making a fool out of herself, him, and you? He really didn't look all that happy when she told him that all she needed him to do was provide directions to the courthouse. Does it make you happy to know that your help is really that unimportant to the Great O'Rly?
Cheers,
