All Thumbs, I guess

I gotta say this story sure has uh........ legs.
Revisiting stupidity one mo time..................it seems my veracity is yet again being questioned here and here by lurkers, lefties, thumbsuckers, and all around losers. And so I submit for the record, PROOF of my tendency to throw the thumbs up sign when feeling  wildly jubilant, cheeky and well, happy. NEXT!

Exhibit A 9/16/05 with Christopher Hitchens, feeling particularly "thumby"

Exhibit B Here with Daniel Pipes at an NYU lecture (not sure of date)

Exhibit C....with Charles Johnson, Little Green Footballs at the Pajama Media Dinner (same bat time, same bat channel as where the alleged incident in question first took place)

and now ladies and gentlemen, drum roll please...............the offending photo with the Instapundit described as follows

"In a scene sadly reminiscent of those titty-flashing Girls Gone Wild videos without which no bachelor's personal library is complete, a female blogger fondles her breast while rubbing up against "globally influential" content provider Glenn Reynolds."

When discussing the nominations for the Conservative Blogress Diva contest over at Gay Patriot,
 Cathy says;

I am giving a thumbs up!" Pamela insisted. Of course she was. Just right next to her breast.

Uh yeah Cathy I was. Whatevuh........Now that we have put it in context, can we get our minds out of the gutter and put this sucker to bed?

UPDATE: I guess not. A queen weighs in. Misogyny lives at the Vain Fair. Dorothy Parker recoils in her grave.

Wretchard, Tim Blair and the thumb in question

How on Earth does one get invited to such swinging parties? Merry Christmas(es) and Happy Hanukkah!

[Fausta]

I believe that what Wolcott's doing is called projecting in psychiatry.

Just yesterday he was saying that
Predictably, rightwing bloggers are bouncing off their padded walls angrily demanding that the union be crushed and its leaders jailed. I wrote to him clarifying that nothing Fausta is padded, be it walls, blog or whatever.

[elvis]

Well of course, Pamela, you can't have expected Seipp to understand the limited perspective of a camera lens. After all, she has no idea how to draw either.

In so far as this female blogdiva contest is concerned let Gay Patiot and Wolcott worry about the cat fights. Meowrrrrrrrrrrgh!

[olddawg]

I must say that those are really nice thumbs.

[Craig]

Pamela,
You are toooooooo cute. Happy Hannukah and Merry Christmas!

[BigDog]

I heard of James Wollcott for the first time yesterday when he was mentioned on LGF. He strikes me as petty and vain. I can see why he would consider bloggers a threat to his phoney baloney job.

[Klabdak]

Who cares what Wollcott says. Every time he thinks of Bill Clinton he masaages his lower area.

Go ahead and keep giving the thumbs up. BTW...wonderful website!

[neverforget]

Happy Hannukah and Merry Christmas! You are special.

[MarcH]

Pamela,

You are in good company. Wolcott has just taken a feeble, clumsy swipe at Dr. Daniel Pipes (of Pennsylvania). This in response to Pipes posting an incredibly lucid and succinct analysis of where we are at in the GWOT. Wolcott is consistently 180 degrees wrong on all issues. I would consider Wolcott’s stupid reference to you as a compliment.

Happy Hanukah.

And Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukah, etc., etc. to all readers of Atlas Shrugs

It's not the sucking up to perceived alpha males that most repulses, the transparent social climbing, the slight tinge of desperation.

No, it's the plastic surgery.

My eyes!

Ye gods, I need a shower.

[Dave Munger]

I can kind of relate to Seip and the gang, in that I WANT to believe that you're feverishly milking yourself in that picture, but it's Glen Freaking Reynolds, not Jeff Goldstein!

You look a lot like that one Desperate Housewife, the hot one. You aren't an Objectivist or something, are you?

[Observer12]

Pipes looks like Salman Rushdie. Who woulda thought?

[A Wolcott fan]

I'm reminded of that lurid profile Kathrine Harris took when giving a recent interview that accentuated her, um, ample physical assets. Except that Harris is somewhat better looking, of course.

Ahh, Ayn Rand. The writer who is to philosophy what Harlequin romances are to literature...

[Taylor]

Ok, first off cute pictures. Second off, Santorum is just alright. He's more pro-theoconservatism than he is pro-market.

[lowandslow]

Don't let the bastards get you down Pamela.

[odysseus]

Wolcott is the reason that my wife stopped buying Vanity Fair. He substitutes bile for reason and invective for debate. If you've pissed him off, then you've done something right and you're in good company.

[odysseus]

BTW, sorry that I missed meeting you at the PJM event. I'd have liked to have posed with the thumb.

[Roger M. Simon]

You CLEARLY have your hand on your fake titty in that shot with Reynolds, dear.

[Macker]

Pam: you must be kidding! You can't be all thumbs!

[Pastorius]

Who is James Wolcott?

[markg]

Is it just me, or are those thumbs silicon enhanced ?

[Patrick Chester]

Looks like an unfortunate camera angle, nothing more.

[Tristram]

So that's Charles Johnson?? Who knew nazis could look so frumpy...

All your protestations are rendered moot by that horrible airbrushed Supergirl thing up on the left. The truly scary thing is that your tits look more real there than in photos.

*shudder*

You. Are. Hideous.

[JoMamma]

Child, you need to eat more. Good Gawd in Heaven.

[John C. Randolph]

Help me out here... Why do you even care what that snotty little queen bitch Wolcott has to say?

-jcr

[fedayeen]

You can thumbs up me anytime you want sweetheart. Love thumbs.

[Billy Beck]

[cackle]

Dahlink, I do believe that your heart's in the right place, even after the cheeky appropriation in your blog's name. But let me tell you something:

After twenty-eight years of rock-show touring, with just a handful of snapshots I can see you coming from a mile away.

Now, don't get twitchy, sweetness. The best ones just let it roll.

Onward.

[eatyrgarbage]

Chaz has an expression that conjures a subheading like "Something go 'boing!'"

[Nardo]

Please pardon me for observing two things: 1. your "thumbs up" is by your breast because of how you're holding your purse.

2. (insert gratuitous male appreciation for attractive female)

[CoolCzech]

Pam,

I love your blog. Don't worry about all those stupid and smarmy comments - thumb sucking never looked so inviting!

;-)

[Charlie (Colorado)]

Wolcott's real problem is that he knows he can never live up to his father.

Who could never live up to his grandfather.

[jerry]

Ouch! No teeth please!

[Subsunk]

Pam,

Personally, I find the placement of your thumb(s) very attractive. They are right on the sides of your hands. And they decorate the rest of your lovely accoutrements so well. Really!

Now if you could get rid of those old guys in your pictures, you'd have a masterpiece of beauty.

Pamela

I got here through James Wolcott's site. . . ya, I'm on the other side.

Not a bad blog ya got, setupwise, but your politics stinks. . . Give ya the benefit of the doubt on the thumb, but the supergirl pic does seem very suggestive. . . think that JW's got a point. Still, it's just "taking the pizz" as the Brits say, ya'll oughta be able to take a bit of that . . . as much horseshiz as your side dishes out. . .

[sts]

you've successfully proven that you're the jackass at the party. You might want to consider a new signature "thing" that you do at parties. This one, it turns out, makes you look like a cringe-making not-so-smart a-hole. Yeah, sure, there's always one at every party, but do you really want to be that person? Or, I guess I should say, do you want to continue to be that person?

[ahem]

Pamela, you're Groupie To The Neocons. Your namesake would be proud.

[Crab]

Yes, yes, distasteful as this whole site is, I can accellerate its race to ruin: anyone cognizant of the delightful term (and activity) COITUS A MAMILIA?

[Nardo]

Hey, Crab. the phrase is "coitus a mammalia." Sister Mary Katherine would be ashamed of you.

[Phil]

Such nasty comments from people who have never met you in person. I have met Pamela in person; the trolls are simply projecting wishful thinking. You know you are doing right when it muddies up the waters in Leftyville.

[Crab]

I am ashamed...and Sister Brigette may attempt to corporally punish me with her arthritic hands...and I'll rest my hip in luke warm water...hold the silicon please -- I live in California...

[brax]

honey, you need to learn some self-respect.
