a couple of days ago, republican gubernatorial candidate and noted kook, carl paladino, apologized for being a gaycist prick while delivering a speech written by sassy rabbi, yehuda levin, over the weekend.
so, yesterday, the rabbi expressed his disappointment in paladino, in a public speech in front of st patrick's cathedral on fifth avenue. this guy is a real hoot:
first, he said that paladino "folded like a cheap camera"?!!! i'm fairly sure that's not how that saying goes, and i just love a good mixed metaphor, so i had to read on.
next, he told this cartoonish story about learning of paladino's camera-folding:
“I was in the middle of eating a kosher pastrami sandwich,” Rabbi Levin said. "While I was eating it, they come running and they say, ‘Paladino became gay!’ I said, ‘What?’ And then they showed me the statement. I almost choked on the kosher salami.”CTM! can you imagine?!?! paladino pointed to the fact that his nephew is gay as a point of regret in making insensitive comments, to which the rabbi responded:
“He discovered now he has a gay nephew?” the rabbi said. “Mazel tov! We’ll make a coming-out party!”mazel tov, indeed. no matter how *tiCkeD* the rabbi is, he made it clear that his old gay-bashing friend is welcome back to hateville any time he likes:
“Carl, we’ll leave the light on for you,” he said. “Come back, Carl.”shew! i hope carl has learned his lesson about pandering to the radical beliefs of a specific demographic in order to secure their votes. looks like cuomo's picked up a couple more points in the polls. brb folding like a cheap crate of bananas.

i thought for sure thomas wilhelm wrote this.
i was channeling him. and you should also take a look at gawker's take. i read it after i wrote mine, and it's almost the exact same.
2pz has more snark and sass than gawker could ever hope to have.
and they stink!
