Alec Baldwin Calls Andrew Breitbart A 'Festering Boil On The Anus Of Public Discourse'

Ever since Andrew Breitbart reminded Occupy protesters at CPAC that their movement had a serious sexual harassment and rape problem, Breitbart and many in his company have been repeatedly making the point as a reminder to a public that has mostly forgotten that Occupy exists that they are not, in the aggregate, the most serious group of political dissenters. This has gotten the attention of some of the lower-tier fringe left, with the latest of these being noted political scholar Alec Baldwin, who added this veritable contribution to politics today: “Andrew Breitbart is a festering boil on the anus of public discourse.”

Whose Bartlett?

Pretty sure he is talking about Bruce Bartlett, an economist who worked for Reagan, who keeps going on talk shows and saying that tax cuts don't pay for themselves and deregulation doesn't lead to job growth and the tea party is a danger to america and the republican party. They despise him for his connection to the Reagan admin, and because he turned on the party message, but most of all because he is right.

Here you go.

This seems pretty mild to me. I mean if you're going to be a festering boil, at least the anus is a reasonably discreet location. I wonder if, by anus, Baldwin is referring to the internet.

Read the rest of the article.

Basically, they're condemning Alec Baldwin for making such a childish insult. Meanwhile, they seem to have forgotten that they began their article with "Ever since Andrew Breitbart reminded Occupy protesters at CPAC that their movement had a serious sexual harassment and rape problem, Breitbart and many in his company have been repeatedly making the point as a reminder to a public that has mostly forgotten that Occupy exists that they are not, in the aggregate, the most serious group of political dissenters"

Furthermore, they go on to write off Alec Baldwin by sarcastically calling him a "political scholar". The funny thing about acting... You get paid a lot of money to do a job that doesn't take up that much of your time. You've got a lot of free time. Now, Alec Baldwin has been famously interested in politics for decades now. When you combine these two elements, you've got at least the credentials of an average political pundit, combined with Baldwin's ties to high ranking politicians whom he knows through fundraisers, and writing him off suddenly seems... stupid.

The Right loves to hate Hollywood when actors aren't on their side, but they'll embrace the living hell out of a Kelsey Grammer, Jon Voight, Victoria Jackson, or Chuck Norris. Remember when Huckabee was dragging him around with him everywhere he went?

My point being, Alec Baldwin is ultimately using colorful language to deride someone who's contribution to political discussion in the United States is edit videos and tell flagrant outright lies. Andrew Breitbart hasn't actually broken any major examples of political corruption. He's only taken a few pieces of information out context and fit them to his own narrative. You may not like the metaphor, but you've really gotta come up with something equivalent if you want to accurately describe what Andrew Breitbart does for a living.

Y'all need to watch the mash-ups Keith has been doing on Countdown on Current TV. They are stellar recombinations of Breitbart's meltdown and famous meltdown in TV/Movie annals. Very funny, and, of course, Andy is the Worst Person in the World - all last week and probably for some months to come.

And Breitbart was also on Cenk's show last week and he looked and sounded like he was a breath away from straight jacket time.

I guess that's a good comeback if you already like Breitbart... From the perspective of a comedy critic, it's trying to use a topical joke that's several years old. It doesn't really punch today.

No that's a good comeback...Even if you didn't even know who Breitbart was ... The only think required is to know what a scum ball Alex is and how poorly he treated his own child...

And to be someone that can think past their hate long enough to say to themselves...If he would treat his own child like that how would he treat MINE!

Anyone remember when Alex said this ?

“I’m thinking to myself if we were in other countries, we would all, right now, all of us together, . . . would go down to Washington and we would stone [Republican U.S. Representative] Henry Hyde to death! We would stone him to death! Wait! . . . Shut up! No, shut up! I’m not finished. We would stone Henry Hyde to death, and we would go to their homes and we’d kill their wives and their children. We would kill their families.”

You're not grasping what I'm saying - It requires you to remember a piece of information from a long time ago. It's a bad joke. If you don't understand how jokes work, then...

As for the Henry Hyde comments... Out of line, absolutely. But his point was that if we were in another country, and you had a guy trying to impeach the president over an extramarital affair, and he had an extramarital affair himself... The double standards that Republicans live by and, more importantly, get away with... astounding. Newt Gingrich has more examples than I'd even like to start with. You've got all of these people who are against Sharia Law and the global domination of Islam and yet want to rule the United States from the Bible rather than the constitution.

Yes, Baldwin's comments were out of line, but his point was that in most other countries, the people don't stand for the open hypocrisy that people like Henry Hyde got away with. Hell, Gingrich has come out and said he doesn't need to do the things he tells other people to do.

      Just because I like what he said THIS TIME, it doesn't mean that I like everything he says, or even like Alec Baldwin at all.

      There are plenty of people out there that I like SOME of what they say or do, that doesn't mean that I'm endorsing everything they've done throughout their entire lives.

      I like Mel Gibson's and Clint Eastwood's movies (Usually), but that doesn't mean I personally care for either actor's politics or personality.

      But you're bringing up something that Alec Baldwin said that you didn't like from 11 years ago as if it had any relevance at all to the current topic, and that's an absolutely ridiculous position to take.

        Alec Baldwin is a man that would put peoples lives at stake, when a stewardess asks him to put away his cell phone , and he is so important he dont think he has to . im of an opinion he is an ego maniacal jackass. and wonder if anyone cares what he thinks.

        Not true. Most commercial airliners have a rear camera that is used for backing up the plane, not unlike a Prius. Ordinarily, objects in the camera are closer than they appear. Cell phone usage can disturb the signal in such a way that objects displayed are further than they appear causing pilots who are navigating their plane in reverse to collide with baggage carts, stray stewardesses, what have you. So you should NEVER use your cell phone while your plane is taxiing in reverse on the runway.

        IDK about the "backing up" issue...but I've been on multiple charter flights where a half dozen (or more) people were using their cell phones virtually non-stop from boarding to deplaning...without incident. And no member of the flight crew ever instructed the passengers otherwise or raised an issue/concern about it.

        Ultimately, Mr. Baldwin's failure to follow the direction of the flight crew...doesn't lessen the accuracy of his observation regarding Mr. Breitbart.

          “Andrew Breitbart is a festering boil on the anus of public discourse.”

          What a compelling statement. It ceratinly validates the claim that the civility and decency of liberal contributions to public discourse as a joke.

And how dare a dirty liberal attack a person who has made a profession out of attacking a sitting US President and dirty trick playing to a captive audience, The corrupt theives that make up the Republican party, hey, GOP where is all the money you stole from the people, let's investigate that.

          Alright.

          Accordingly then... it stands to reason that Mr. Breitbart's body of work certainly validates the claim that conservatives are intellectually dishonest bigots...with nothing of merit to add to the "public discourse"...except lies and empty, desperate partisan rhetoric.

          Not at all.

          While the adjectives and description I offered fit Mr. Breitbart rather nicely...they don't apply to conservatives as an entire group.

          In order to demonstrate the absurdity of your accusation...I substituted a few variables...and extrapolated a conclusion about conservatives using the same flawed rational you relied upon to reach your conclusion about liberals.

          It's also your choice to accept an "off hand" comment from a crass and no talent individual like Baldwin.

          Just as it's your choice to believe Mr. Baldwin has, "no talent".

          The fact that Mr. Baldwin has been nominated for an Oscar...and a Tony...and has won multiple Emmy's...multiple Golden Globes...and multiple SAG awards...among others... seems to indicate your choice isn't a very good one. But, you are nonetheless entitled to that choice.

          Than why disparage him as having "no talent"? You may not like his politics...but clearly he has talent.

          Funny how someone so concerned about the absence of "civility and decency" just a couple posts back...resorts to empty ad homs when his position is challenged.

          I also know there's no accounting for taste

          Agreed...but it's irrelevant in the context of discussing his talent . It's been proven time and again...a person can have talent to spare...and have no taste whatsoever.

          I'm curious lamplighter....does conservative (and fellow SNL alum) Victoria Jackson speak for all conservatives when broadcasting her birther beliefs?

          How about Chuck Norris? When he pens a missive containing extremist rhetoric and promoting (what amounts to a) Theocracy...are his comments a fair measure of conservative "contributions to public discourse"?

          Or would that be overstating the issue?

          Another deflection.

          The fact that your accusations were less "crass"...doesn't negate the fact that you resorted to ad homiem attacks.

          You bemoan his lack of "civility and decency"....while SIMULTANEOUSLY...using his comment to make a sweeping denouncement of liberals. Then when I challenged...you resorted to attacking him personally.

          Crass or not...there is nothing civil or decent about ad hominem arguments.

          Furthermore...while his comment was crass ...there is evidentiary support for his assertion. By your own admission, your attack on his "talent" was entirely baseless.

          Show me any evidence that either of them ever used Baldwin's method for articulating their observations?

          Yet another deflection. At least this one made me chuckle!

          Deflect all you want....if the "method for articulating (an) observation"... justifies the use of a sweeping denouncement against an entire ideology...than certainly the content of an observation justifies the same response...or even greater.

          What I made is the observation that some people claim that they all empathy, compassion and goodwill ...but only for people who share their worldview...it's open season on all others. And yes, Baldwin fits in that category.

          Then when I challenged...you resorted to attacking him personally.

          For saying he's a crass and has no talent? He validated the former by his festering boil comment. The latter is just my opinion.

          Furthermore...while his comment was crass ...there is evidentiary support for his assertion.

          That public discourse has an anus? That people are festering boils on it? I guess ad hominem works in both directions.

          Yet another deflection. At least this one made me chuckle!

          Chuckle all you want. I still don't see the evidence to back up your claim. I guess your deflection is projection.

          Deflect all you want....if the "method for articulating (an) observation"... justifies the use of a sweeping denouncement against an entire ideology...than certainly the content of an observation justifies the same response...or even greater.

            No on the former...yes on the latter. Are you that unclear on the concept of what constitutes an ad hominem?

            The latter is just my opinion.

            Alright...but your opinion...as expressed...is still a personal attack.

            I guess ad hominem works in both directions.

            To be sure.

            Mr. Baldwin directed an ad hominem...you directed one back. Yes...I KNOW...his was more crass. But yours was still an attack against him personally.

            Moreover...his was an off-color (and yes crass) idiom...not meant to be interpreted literally.

            But your responses have been very literal generalizations and insults directed at liberals as a whole and Mr. Baldwin personally.

            I still don't see the evidence to back up your claim.

            Again I'm chuckling. You're asking for evidence to support a question I didn't ask!

            If you don't want to answer the questions because you painted yourself into a corner w/ your broad brush strokes at the start...fine. But don't blame me for be not providing "evidence" to support a false equivalency that you want to perpetuate.

            As if there's a civil and decent "method" for calling the POTUS a Communist...or for promoting lies and insults about his birth place...or advocating for an unconstitutional form of government!

            In other words...liberals can say whatever they want but can't be called out on it.

            Sweeping generalizations...ad hominems...deflections...projection...red herrings......feigned victimization...wow! I wait with bated breath to see what new logical fallacies lie in store in your next post!

                    I thought Alec Baldwin was a festering boil but next to Breitbart he's barely a freckle.

                    The Democrats are just pissed because this weasel Brietbart compels them over and over again to do things against their self interest.

                    Look at Breitbart's big three.

                    Acorn- Democrats cast the deciding votes to defund them and even bash the group. Without the Democrat's help the GOP would never of won that one. Later they claim Breitbart tricked them. Few have made their rivals kill off one of their own interest groups while dressed up like Fozzy Bear. Claiming you're the lone White pimp dressed up like you stepped out of The Bronx circa 1974, with your 'Ho in tow while asking for tax advice for a child prostitution venture. Wow, you can't make that up!

                    Sherrod- The Obama administration falls for a poorly edited video and fires Ms. Sherrod on Breitbart's word alone. The administration claims Breitbart tricked them. Having a Presidential administration ax a government official with no investigation at all is quite an accomplishment for a @!$%# stirrer.

                    Anthony Weiner- After the facts came out, the Democrats had little choice but to @!$%# can one of their best. No claim of trickery with that one. At first every Democrat defended Weiner, justified his actions and trashed Breitbart. Then it turned out he really was sending unsolicited pictures of his penis to young women that only wrote him because they admired his politics.

                    I don't like the guy and think he is a weasel. But he's good at his game and suckers the Democrats, again and again. That he does it with low budget crappy shtick each time just makes it better.

                    Who gives a @!$%# what Alec Baldwin thinks? Over the years he has gained quite a reputation as being an @!$%# to those he considers 'the little people', like waitresses, flight attendants and maids. If it was just 4 or 5 stories you might not think much about it. Breitbart has his faults, but you have not heard similar stories about Breitbart from the women that had him as a customer.

                    Considering this is the same Breitbart who in 2009 claimed Oprah Winfrey was secretly controlling, only two things I could add to Baldwin's statement:

                    1. insert the words "demented" and "deranged" before the word festering.
                    2. remove the words of public discourse.

                    Alec Baldwin is a national treasure.

                    Ah this is the man that Democrats call a "national treasure"

                    Alec Baldwin's Threatening Message to Daughter

                    An enraged Alec Baldwin unleashed a volcanic tirade of threats and insults on his 11-year-old daughter, Ireland, calling her a "thoughtless little pig," and bashing her mother Kim Basinger -- and TMZ has obtained the whole thing unfiltered and raw. And we've learned, a family law judge was so alarmed after hearing the tape, she has temporarily barred Baldwin from having any contact with his child.

                    Here listen to your HERO speak to his 11 yr old daughter ...

                    If you have the GUTS .... The tell us about your hero..

                    http://www.aolcdn.com/tmz_audio/0419_baldwin_bleeped.mp3

                    Calling his 11 yrs old a "rude little pig little pig you really are, a rude thoughtless little pig"

                    Sorry You Democrats can have him... At least Beritbart is picking on ADULTS not his own little 11 yr old daughter!

                      Many comments we read today insult people. Fewer people speak today in a civil manner. This is just another indication of the growing depravity in American life. This is caused by the elite liberal media with their daily broadcasts expounding their hatred of traditional moral values. The barbarians brought down the Roman Empire and the same thing is happening to the American Empire by the left-wing haters of anyone who dare to disagreee with their atheistic left wing philosophy -- which is devoid of traditional Christian-Judaic moral values.

                        Fighting the wrong fight against the wrong enemy, Bill...

                        This is caused by the elite liberal corporate-controlled media with their daily broadcasts expounding their hatred of traditional moral values pandering to the lowest common social denominator, fictionalizing reality, and generally pandering to conflict over substance in the pursuit of ratings and advertising revenue.

                        Further...

                        their atheistic left wing philosophy -- which is devoid of traditional Christian-Judaic moral values.

                        My own "atheistic left-wing philosophy" shares many values (such as relief of the poor and downtrodden, healing for the sick, food for the hungry &c &c) with "traditional Christian-Judaic" morality... it just happens to exclude the type of divisive, tribally-based, and ethically unsound dogmatic limitations that do not contribute to human well-being... and that have somehow been given primacy-of-place in the political "God-talk" utilized by the more politically-religious pseudo-pundits in the crowd.

                        Uh, Bill, what country are you talking about? Have you not heard the bashing a sitting US President, duly elected by a majority, has taken since before he even took office. Then in utter amazement a host of you defending any right-wing turd thrower and instigator over the President. The right wing and the scapegoating Republicans have brought corruption and unpatriotism to a whole new and lower level. Shame on the rest of us for our committment to the President, how horribly unamerican we are. How dare you, if these are your values, no wonder the country is where it is today, yes there are very clear divides, that is certain. I'm not ashamed of mine, either.

                        The Barbarians did not bring down the Roman Empire, the Roman Empire died AFTER it became Christian.

                        The Barbarians that sacked Rome were led by Roman-trained soldiers using Roman weapons and tactics.

                        It was Christianity that destroyed the Roman Empire.

                        Where will his antics lead? An Obama win, yes indeed.

                        He'll lead his angry mob awry, revenge is something he will try.

                        His anger growing as his head explodes, His ears fly off and his brain implodes.

                        Someday he will leave the race, and another idiot will take his place.

                        Now he'll get grimey and very slimey, my patients growing very thin.
