Just wait ’til the race hustlers get a load of that King Kong-esque book cover..! 😉
The racial overtones of the King Kong cover are creating quite a stir at Pandagon. The comments are quite funny. Amanda sticks her foot in her mouth again.
My belief that “Amanda Marcotte” is a flavour of ice cream seems, at first glance, to be rather undermined by your revelation.

Battle is joined, and they then all pile on each other like weasels fighting in a sack.

Oi! Weasels do not fight in sacks. They make sweet, sweet mustelid love.
Liberals, on the other hand…
