Epithet, schmepitet

George "Macaca/Who, Me a Jew/User of the Word that Cannot be Named" Allen once put a severed deer's head in somebody's mailbox. Admittedly, it's not quite as bad as the scene in The Godfather with the horse head, because you wouldn't be waking up with head parts all over your sheets and jammies, but still, imagine checking your mailbox, hoping for an Entertainment Weekly, and instead you stick your hand into Tete de Bambi.

I can already sense the 2008 presidential campaign is going to be awesome.

Hey, Wonkette is linking to you!

It's a shame she didn't actually read the whole article you were referring to, or she might have realized that Allen's alleged action was supposed to be in response to the Godfather movie.

Good post.

. . .yes, because putting a deer head in someone's mailbox is only disgusting if you thought it up yourself. If it's "in response to" a movie, it's perfectly acceptable.

So leaving intimidating symbols in a black man's mailbox is excusable so long as it can be passed off as being an homage to a movie? I guess we should be more understanding the next time the Klan leaves a burning cross on a black man's lawn, since they were probably just making an allusion to "Birth of a Nation" or "Mississippi Burning". Idiot.

I am just excited about his direct mailing strategy. Ms. T&A, I do believe we will need a larger, more--say--waterproof mailbox.
