Photoshop of the day: Schmucky says “Let them eat pork”

By Michelle Malkin  •  February 20, 2009 05:44 PM

Our wonderful friend and Photoshop guru Tennyson Hayes has returned with yet another delicious take on Beltway snobs. In response to Sen. Chuck Schumer’s derision of Americans who care about the pork in the porkulus, Tennyson powders up Schmucky and tops him off with Marie Antoinette’s big white wig.

Perfect:

    I bet Schumer’s hands are softer and more feminine than that. I bet he holds his pinkies out like that, though.
    All in all, a good likeness.

    If he needs Pelosi and Reid to model for the tar and feathering portrait, we should arrange it.

    Mmmmm, that steak looks good; just needs to be grilled with some BBQ sauce, then pressure-cooked to make it tender.

    As I pointed out on another thread, one can imagine Marie Antoinette referring to the working class of her time as the “chattering class”. This photoshop is perfect.

    Crazy Chuckie Schumer, what a piece of work! He looks good in powder.

    First he forces the House of Representative Bank to shut down because of his hundreds of bounced checks, then causes the run on IndyMac Bancorp to the tune of $32 Billion, now the flaming communist has set his sights on the entire banking industry.

    May God help our Country survive this onslaught from within.

    All credit for this idea goes to our fellow commenter iamsaved, from this response to MM’s syndicated column today.

    Not that iamsaved is responsible for the delicate pinky-pose, or the corpselike rouge, or the, umm, impertinently heaving bosom.

    That’s all Chuck. Our Chuck.

    The royal court is a bad parody….They do think they are royalty. I prefer a photoshop of him as the trash that he is. More like a parasite bug….One of bloomberg’s bedbugs would be a nice look.

    Actually, Marie Antoinette was a nice lady who never said the offending phrase. The fate of the “porkupines” should be much worse (i.e. slower.)

    I’ll be crying when I do ours.

    Add to that the lovely little 5% surcharge on top of our 9.3% tax rate in the state of Kalifornia that Arnold just signed into law, and the doubling of our car tax.

    I guess I have to donate my money to the state of keep all those illegals fed, cared for, educated and employed so they can send my money to Mexico through my pathetic Bank of America that enables them to do so quite nicely. You know, the bank that received a bunch of my tax money, whose stock is tanking and will probably be either bailed out again, or nationalized.

    I confess I am having second thoughts on this. Why are we picking of poor Chuck Schumer? The man at least is open and honest and truth be told he is probably right: as far as I can tell, from my reading and listening to conversations, most people are delighted with the prospect of the Santa Claus State giving them goodies while the bill goes somewhere else. The only resentment comes from those who think their state is not getting enough.

    Yes, he’s a democrat and we all know what that means. He does what democrats do. He grabs us from behind and has his way, but compared to Specter, he is a paragon of virtue. Had Specter and the Weird Sisters stood with us, like Schmucky stands with the democrats, we would have stopped this thing. So I think we should leave Schmucky alone and focus only on Specter and his ilk.

    Indeed, instead of pork rinds, I would send him a thank you note for being so upfront on this.

    You don’t need brain damage to speak French but it sure helps if you want to act French.

    By the way – in case you weren’t aware of it – we have Chuckie to thank for many of the biggest ISP’s removal of Newsgroups from their service packages. I’m on Verizon FiOS and the mutts complaints to various fed agencies over “suspected child pornography in newsgroups” led them to shut down ALL newsgroup access, because someone MIGHT put a link in a message. MIGHT.

    So we have lost access to all the technical groups, music groups, literary groups, etc.

    Thanks very much, Schmuck.
