Asshole Fuckface Roundup

SATURDAY OCTOBER 6 2007 9:00 AM

TAGS: Susan Collins,

Every week I scour the news to find the worst of the worst for you. This week I bring you something special. You are about to read a classic Asshole Fuckface Roundup, if I do say so myself. So put on your face visor and get out your rubber gloves, because this one is going to get nasty.

I’m going to start with what may be my favorite asshole fuckface story of all time. Oh, sweet Jesus, it is delicious.

Senator Susan Collins of Maine is in some deep shit. She is running for re-election next year and is a New England Republican. There aren’t many of them around anymore. She votes the way Bush wants her to, especially when it comes to the war. That makes her a serious Democratic target.

So, how is Collins going after her opponent? His voting record!


In front of mixed crowds, Collins adds a line about Allen’s 129 missed votes, and there are “audible gasps” from the crowd.


Oh, no. 129 votes! What a douche bag. She neglects to say that gives Allen a 98% attendance record, but what the heck, it’s an election!

The Maine GOP wanted to get in on the action and last week they sent out a press statement titled, “Welcome back to work, Tom Allen.”


October 2, 2007

Congressman Tom Allen missed each of the three votes the House of Representatives held yesterday, bringing his missed votes total to 132. He also missed three days of votes for a fundraising [sic] trip to California two weeks ago. Over the last three weeks the House has only held votes on ten days -- Congressman Allen has missed four of those days completely, for a total of 22 votes.

Congressman Allen really seems to have lost interest in showing up to work. At the very least, he should tell his constituents why he is choosing to leave them unrepresented in Congress less than a year after he was reelected. For these and the many other days that Tom has skipped votes, Mainers deserve to know the answer to the question: Where was Tom?


Oh, fuck. Slama Jama! How you gonna answer that question, Tom? Huh, you flakey bitch! Turns out Tom answered the question very quietly, by having an aide phone the Maine GOP that afternoon. Insert balls in vice and….


October 2, 2007

It has come to our attention that Congressman Tom Allen was in Bangor on Monday attending the funeral of a family member. Without question, the most difficult times in our lives are those in which we grieve the loss of family or friends. Our thoughts are with Congressman Allen and his family during this difficult time," said Maine Republican Party Chairman Mark Ellis.


Also, ahem, we are huge asshole fuckfaces.

Representative Darrell Issa is an awesome individual. He is the man who got the ball rolling on the recall of California Governor Gray Davis, which led to my state being governed by a giant embarrassment named Arnold. Issa was then rewarded with enormous support by Republicans and won himself a seat in the House.

Issa has a classy background. He has been arrested for stealing a car, convicted of possessing an unregistered gun, charged but not convicted of faking the theft of his own Mercedes for insurance money, and accused of carrying a gun into an office when he fired an employee. So, making a veiled threat against Representative Henry Waxman is not a surprise.




If Henry Waxman today wants to go to Iraq and do an investigation, Blackwater will be his support team. His protection team. Do you think he really wants to investigate directly?


Uh, what? So, Waxman should not investigate mercenaries who seem to have just murdered a bunch of Iraqis because they might kill him if he goes to Iraq? And you’re a Representative in the House? Not a member of the mafia? Congrats, Darrell Issa, you just made the Asshole Fuckface Roundup! I can’t believe it took this long!

Just when I think the people at the White House can’t act like bigger asshole fuckfaces, they go and surprise me.

The British have pulled out of Basra and it appears they will withdraw their remaining 4,500 troops from Iraq next year. To date, 170 Britons have sacrificed their lives in the conflict.

But now that Britain has pulled out of Basra, the White House has decided to show their true colors and act like asshole fuckfaces. A senior White House foreign policy official broke down how the administration feels about the British soldier’s sacrifice.


Operationally, British forces have performed poorly in Basra. Maybe it's best that they leave. Now we will have a clear field in southern Iraq.


Wow. Somebody just made the Asshole Fuckface Hall of Fame. The gall of these people is astounding. All I can do is wish eternal suffering on everyone involved in this administration. And remember, when MoveOn criticizes a general, the are disgusting.

Finally, nothing will land you on the Asshole Fuckface Roundup faster than fucking over our troops.

2,600 members of the Minnesota National Guard spent a delightful 22 months in Iraq. 729 days to be exact. They had been deployed longer than any other combat unit in Iraq and were extended due to President Moron’s surge. Upon returning, several expected to take advantage of the GI bill. Platoon leader John Hobot was one.


I would assume, and I would hope, that when I get back from a deployment of 22 months, my senior leadership in Washington, the leadership that extended us in the first place, would take care of us once we got home.


Ha! That’s cute. This is America, John, where we fuck over our troops after we’re done with them. The government is now refusing to pay their education benefits because the soldiers came in one day under the requirement. Turns out the poor bastards needed 730 days on tour. Sorry.


It's pretty much a slap in the face. I think it was a scheme to save money, personally. I think it was a leadership failure by the senior Washington leadership... once again failing the soldiers.


The soldiers believe the Pentagon “deliberately” wrote their orders for 729 days instead of 730 to fuck them out of their education benefits, which would have been an extra $500 to $800 a month. Minnesota lawmakers are putting pressure on the asshole fuckfaces at the Pentagon to rectify the situation.

Congrats to all of this weeks asshole fuckfaces! You guys totally deserve it and you will all recieve a pair of FearTheReaper wrist bands!

Aside from Issa just being an asshole fuckface already, what he said there wasn't so bad, and was honestly just a solid observation. If you're about to go into a hostile environment, you don't criticize the people who will be your protection.

PS - I get a big kick out of these posts, but often there's little controversy to talk about, so the threads don't get too long.

Out of idle curiosity, is this "asshole fuckface roundup" series going to continue even when the new threads are one post long?

It ceased being interesting a while ago.



Yes. Don't read it.

After a buildup like that I was prepared for something truly heinous...

I guess my point is, why not put your energy into something that, like, is interesting?



Ah, well I get the most positive feedback from the Roundup.

The site is not actually specifically here for you. There are other people involved as well.

Thanks for the input!

I did frame the question in terms of the general interest of people on the site, not my own personal interest. Some of your threads actually do amuse me, which is why I bothered to stick my head in here in the first place.

These threads don't get many posts anymore. Most of the posts in this particular one have been about whether or not these threads have run their course and become horribly jejune.

But I'm sure the site will continue to pay you to write articles that no one gives a fuck about. I'm sure they'll fail to notice that you have a tendency to revert to your one-trick pony m.o. and that now that everyone knows what the trick is, we've moved on with a shake of the head and a hearty ho-hum. I suppose there are always clueless n00bs for you to provoke. Sounds like a very fulfilling way to make a couple of extra bucks on the side.

So, like, take the feedback or don't. Whatever, dude. I'm sure either way there will still be plenty of cheap drinks and slobberknocking with busted waitresses at Catch A Rising Star or what have you. Have fun with that.



Holy fuck, that was truly pathetic coming from you. Hopefully you were not actually thinking any of those sad words would have an effect, because, just, wow. Really, really weak.

i always enjoy the asshole fuckface roundups, but as heathen_dave said: "little controversy to talk about, so the threads don't get too long." lack of posts in response doesn't mean the article's not interesting.

The articles don't get that many comments probably because there is little to say. I think anyone would agree on said assholes so comments of "yep, they're assholes all right" are about all you can expect. I personally enjoy and look forward to the Roundup. I always learn about some heinous current event that I did not know about. Reap on, baby!

Ironic, coming in such a cheesedick, weak-ass thread. I know you're all above it all and shit. It's part of your schtick. I get it. Still, these threads bore the fuck out of me and clearly a lot of other people, too. You can do better.



Sometimes I'm above it, sometimes I'm not.

I would expect the banging a drunk waitress at a comedy club coming from some yahoo, but I just didn't expect it from you. It's just so distanced from reality that it is amazing. You need to actually know something about someone to take a shot at them like that. You know nothing of my comedy or the world I hang out in, just as I know so little about your world.

You can take shots at my writing, sure. Totally acceptable.

I write it every week because I have gotten so many messages from people asking me to continue it. The one week I didn't write it, I had many messages from people saying they missed it. It is certainly not made to create a discussion. Weekends are not good for any sort of discussion as it is. The site is most busy on Mon, Tues, Wed, and goes down from there. It actually does me no good with my comment average to keep it going. But I enjoy it. There are a lot of stories every week that are not worthy of an entire article, but are worthy of mentioning.

Like I said, if you don't like it, you don't have to read it.

Well, it depends how you do it. Many people do it like a little cunt. I respond to those in kind. I find it enjoyable. Others do it and I ignore.
