Alec Baldwin calls Breitbart a ‘festering boil on the anus of public discourse’

Apparently Keith Olbermann isn’t the only person who thinks Andrew Breitbart’s recent attempt to smear the “Occupy” movement as serial rapists is a bit beyond the pale. Mediaite is reporting that actor Alec Baldwin took to Twitter today to excoriate the Big Government blogger and media provocateur, calling him a “festering boil on the anus of public discourse.”

The dust-up began when a Twitter user asked Baldwin’s opinion as to whether Breitbart was using the so-called “rape rant” as a smoke screen to distract public attention away from the Shirley Sherrod scandal. (Sherrod was a USDA employee whose career and reputation were impugned in a heavily doctored video that was first aired on Breitbart’s website.)

Baldwin replied to the query with the very descriptive phrase mentioned above, which prompted a great deal of back and forth between the 30 Rock star and Breitbart, as well as many of Breitbart’s and Baldwin’s fans. The actor threw in the towel around 2:00 pm, Tweeting, “OK, enough festering boils for this weekend.”

[11 Bravo]

8. Can Limbaugh now sue for trademark infringement? After all "festering anal boil" describes ...

not only Limbaugh's physical appearance, but also his personality. Then, as a bonus, it also describes how the chickenhawk shitstain avoided service during the VietNam war.

[Major Hogwash]

13. Bwa-ha-ha-ha!!

Man, that is funnier than hell.
Isn't that what it says on the back of Limbaugh's chair, the initials F.A.B. Festering Anal Boil?

11. anybody read the comments at mediaite? it's like freepcity.

http://www.mediaite.com/online/new-twitter-feud-alec-baldwin-calls-andrew-breitbart-a-festering-boil-on-the-anus-of-public-discourse/

a vocal majority of comments I've read there (I'm not talking about the ones at the Baldwin/Breitbart link, just generally speaking) mostly seem to agree that Obama is a Manchrian candidate, born singing the Internationale, leading us straight to a dreaded socialist quagmires, something along the lines of hellholes like, say, Sweden or Norway or Denmark

here's a good one...not as hate-filled as many, but typical of the total lack of logic informing their paranoid, logically inconsistent maunderings:

Liberals can't seem to grasp a person labeled a socialist (assuming for sake of argument the person in fact is) can't possibly be a socialist if they do 5 or 6 things that are more capitalist than socialist. It boggles the minds of many, but if a person saves the life of 999 people but kills 1 that person is still a murderer. You can argue they can't have it both ways, but the world isn't black and white - they certainly can have it both ways if the preponderance of the evidence or overwhelming evidence from a single act demonstrates their opinion is likely correct.

Whine all you want, but those who cherry pick Obama's decisions to call him a socialist may be just as right as those who cherry pick his decisions to call him a capitalist. He is what he is. I don't choose to label him, except to say I think in some ways he is very much like Jimmy Carter, but in my view only in the obstinate and historical sense.

the money shot:

I see him as very far left based on his record prior to becoming President as well as his record as President. I also think he can be far left and a capitalist at the same time. I don't think its a coincidence we only hear him compared to Stalin by a DNC spokesperson (Scarborough).

that BASTard DNC-er Scarborough, of all people: a closeted Dem, after all these years! who'd a thunk it

[tosh]

19. LOL at FROTH over there...

and not just on that story. He's hilarious all over that site.

[Kellerfeller]

12. Sorry, Baldwin's opinion, regardless of what it is,

means less than nothing to me.

I wrote him off when he called his daughter a “rude, thoughtless little pig." and tried to scare her by threatening to commit suicide.

[Logical]

16. Did you write off Clinton when he had an intern sick his penis?

[joeglow3]

17. You really think that is a the same fucking sport?

Let alone the same ballpark. Give me a break.

[Kellerfeller]

18. " sick his penis?"

Nice Freudian slip.

No on that. But he did lose a lot a trust and credibility when he lied about it to the public.

Even so I think screwing with the head of of your teenage daughter is worse than betraying your wife and the American public.

[Skittles]

24. LOL, my dad called me way worse than that, and DID commit suicide

get OVER yourself

[Kellerfeller]

36. So you would really respect what he had to say?

that makes no sense at all.

I recommend you get over Baldwin and instead listen to people who are more mature.

[Skittles]

37. LOL

zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

AND BY THE WAY - yes, I DID listen to my dad and got lots of sane advice from him.

[malaise]

14. Now why didn't I come up with that perfect line

[originalpckelly]

15. Breitbart retweeted my tweet making fun of him...

he's fucking stupid.

[backscatter712]

20. He's trying to sic his flying monkey Twitter-bullies on you... n/t

[originalpckelly]

22. I don't really care.

I don't use twitter very often, and it was so sly I don't think the morons could figure it out.

[Relentless Bitch]

21. An insult to festering boils everywhere

[Skittles]

26. ESPECIALLY ones on the anus

[Octafish]

32. ''Hey! Anal cysts kept me out of Vietnam!''

"Only needed one, actually."

[Skittles]

38. f***

[center rising]

23. Boy, he sure has Brietbart pegged!!!

[DeSwiss]

25. ''.....Breitbart a ‘festering boil on the anus of public discourse’.''

I've always thought of Ann or maybe O'Reilly as public discourses' anus boil.


- I stand corrected......

K&R

[The Doctor.]

27. Never let it be said that Baldwin has never had a kind word for anyone.

This just proves the man is truly charitable.

[Doc Holliday]

28. I would have said

that AB was a skidmark in the underwear of rational discourse....but I'm flexible-- I can go with Baldwin's description, since (as noted above) it doesn't really affect me either way.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

29. Well said.

[lunatica]

30. I have this love/hate thing going with Alec. Today I love him

[Erose999]

31. Baldwin forgot to add "syphilitic ".

Breitbart is a festering, syphilitic boil on the ass of public discourse.

[AlbertCat]

33. Breitbart is a festering, syphilitic boil on the ass of public discourse.

And he got the STD from being raped by everyone in the OWS movement.... obviously.

[mwooldri]

34. To use the language of a childrens' tv show: Baldwin is being Really Useful.

Whilst Breitbart is just causing confusion and delay.

The Fat Controller... erm... Sir Topham Hatt ... would be pleased with Mr. Conductor.
