Conservatives are in a tizzy over a seemingly innocuous Obamacare ad from Organizing for Action featuring a young man in pajamas.
He’s “a metrosexual hipster in a plaid onesie” scowled National Review’s Charles Cooke, a “vaguely androgynous, student-glasses-wearing, Williamsburg hipster.” He’s also “carefully ambi-racial.”
Pajama boy can’t even fight, Cooke’s colleague, Jim Geraghty, surmises. “My money is on the guy from Big Bang Theory once they throw down in a slap fight,” writes Geraghty, a grown man calling someone else a child as he imagines a fight between two fictional characters.
“An insufferable man-child,” writes Rich Lowry at Politico, who “might be glad to pay more for his health insurance to include maternity benefits he doesn’t need as a blow against gender stereotyping.” What kind of man thinks women shouldn’t have to pay more for health insurance because of their ladyparts anyway?
How could the sight of an earnest twenty something in pajamas drive so many dashing specimens of unassailable masculinity to complete panic? The paradox of our gender enforcers that they never sound more terrified than when addressing a person who doesn’t fit their standards. It’s an abject terror that masquerades as courage, relying on the reader not to know the difference. Pajama Boy is both a weak, effeminate symbol to be mocked, and the unstoppable 200-foot tall Kaiju wrecking their shining city on a hill....

And you can tell he’s very impressed with himself.
I have this sudden urge to kneel :)
Now that’s unfair to a man who crafted a career based upon his talent and ambition and another who seems to genuinely care that people lose weight and get fit. Then there’s Pajama Boy . . . .
Serwer is a sewer. His articles makes as much sense.
Now all you need is Jefferson Airplane’s “White Rabbit” as a sound track.
Libtards like Adam Serwer can not stand to have their foolish libtardism exposed to mockery. It’s especially painful to them when the mockery resonates and hits the target as successfully as it did with Obama’s Pajama Boy.
It’s no wonder that Adam Serwer would lash out with a nonsensical argument about Conservatives “freaking out” about Pajama Boy. It’s called “whistling past the graveyard”. He instinctively knows that libtardism has been grievously wounded by the Obamacare fiasco, and Pajama Boy mockery has just added insult to injury, but he cannot be seen to acknowledge the truth, especially by the fellow traveler libtards that he preaches to. So he must instead assiduously pretend that nothing’s wrong, and so to facilitate that he assumes the phony persona of the superior intellect who can reassure fellow libtards that everything is really OK, and that if they can just somehow change the conversation to “those evil Conservatives are really, really afraid of Obamacare”, everything will be all better in Camelot. Of course he’s foolishly mistaken.
Nothing like a bit of falsehood to start an article. We are not “freaking out”; we ARE laughing ourselves hoarse.
Freaking out? Like GLAAD did about Phil Robertson?
That kind of freaking out?
I have a feeling he's upset that he looked just Pajama Boy that when he was younger.
Eeeeee-yew.
I’m blind.
>.<
I think Obama is advertising that Obamacare is for homosexuals.
PJ Boy has a “kick-my-ass” look about him.
LOL
“I’m blind.”
Just drop some acid; you’ll be fine.
Remember the constant drone of the dealers and panhandlers walking up Haight Street from Letterman?
Adam, you dumb*ss, no one freaked out. We were laughing at your hero, the anointed one, Obama for selecting him. You certainly belong on MSDNC, you all favor one another and think exactly the same.
“relying on the reader not to know the difference”
LOL...I think he is trying to call us dumb but look where he works, MSDNC!
