Matt Drudge Calls Barbara Mikulski, Other Senators "Fatties"

Discussing President Obama's yet-to-be named healthcare czar on KFYI's "Barry Young Show," Matt Drudge lashed out at D.C. lawmakers, but not for any of the usual reasons. Instead, he went with a playground favorite: calling Barbara Mikulski (D-Md.) and other lawmakers "fatties."

"I want to see who he appoints as his heath czar and what their blood pressure count is, and their weight. Because DC is full of a bunch of fatties. Have you seen them? Have you seen them in the Senate? Barbara Mikulski? Have you seen some of these fatties? Who are lecturing us about health?"

Hell. You don't want to start a name-calling war, you crazed baldie.

Guess there isn't a mirror in that big glass closet where Drudge resides. Time to "come out" and take a good look, Matt.

[MimiGardner]

I think there's a strong streak of misygony among republicans and their surrogates

[IntelligenceIsBliss]

I must have missed the story about Drudge winning the Mr. Universe title. Those who live in glass houses should probably not being tossing rocks around with impunity.

Nothing says Junior High School like name calling. Nothing of substance to talk about?

[grf67]

Some of that is true. Cheney and limbaugh are obscenely obese.

By the way, I would love to have Barbara Mikulski has my senator any day of the week. Hey I'll trade you McCain and Kyl and Flake for Senator Mikulski. She's great. She works for her constituents. Unlike to T00LS we in Arizona have.

Matt, if you apply for a job, they're not gonna look at your blood pressure or your weight. They're gonna look to see if you graduated near the bottom of your class, like you did.

And is it too much to ask if you used some CSS code on your website? It's 2009.

Matt Drudge just doesn't know what he is talking about. Senator Milulski is one great Senator, have you ever heard her speak in the Senate, she is one powerful little lady.

[MThomasNC]

Drudge is typical conservative - playground bully, throwing mud, saying and writing childlike, silly things to get attention. And they do get attention - the conservatives know how to play the media.

[AnthonyVolpe]

Drudge is the media, sadly.

[Pablo175]

I can think of far worse adjectives.

Hold the phone! I am from Maryland and we simply LOVE Barbara McKulski because she is tough and effective and protects our port, the bay and our people. Have you ever heard her speak? We're so proud of her terrific, funny and pointed remarks. Perhaps you've never seen Hairspray? We're from Balmer, hon, and she's our gal, so shaddup.

[Moshe]

Stay classy Matt.

[NoelGreco]

Drudge may be among the last within the range of your comments needing a lecture on class.

Shalom, indeed.

He does have a point.

I fail to see the point. If calling someone names can be a point, then we must all be playing sand box politics.
Come on, let's talk about this intelligently, and so far, that is my point #1.

[Furby]

But he does have a point. Shouldn't a healthy person be appointed?

[Melissa]

Obama wants us all to be skinny (no twinkies), non smokers, exercise, etc. He has to appoint someone who fits that bill. Someone like Arnold.
