    I think JA has this backwards. Obama still rues the day that JA lost her chance to smooth out his magic carpet ride to history when she babbled at a Career Day Barbeque about some guy she once fucked.

    No offense here, but you guys are slow on the Julia Allison ridicule uptake with this one. To be sure there was actual news and shit to cover this week, but this is some older overreaching desperation here.


    But it is fun to join in the fun, when it's offered, so without any further ado:


    This bitch has no fucking clew just how fucking dumb she is. Anyone would w/ even a few brain cells would realise that her conversational resources the first time around with Mr. Obama is what has condemned her to the hell she currently inhabits. I mean, doi.


    Even Mary gets this level of self aware, and Mary is one pissed off bitch.


    Now if you will excuse me, there is a bottle of white wine calling my name.

    @onebadclam: From a 1/24 Mary post , allegedly a fan email "I'm sure you get a ton of messages from fans (and if not, they ARE out there), its just the silent, odious minority of gawker commenters who have run amok all over the internet drowning out anyone else with a different opinion. "

    Silent Minority! Wait how can we drown anyone out if we're silent? Is that email from Julia's mom?

    She doesn't bother to mention intelligence or intellectual curiosity. She really believes she's owed a lot from the world because she's her.

    In reply to Julia Allison Could Have Been in the White House By Now
    Because I know too much about this asshat, let's unpack this. Ms. Allison got her start in politics when her rich-ass parents set her up with a bullshit job with their local Congressman after she dropped out of IU. She then transferred into Georgetown (though she's shocking non-specific, it was College, not SFS) along with dozens of other moneyed bobos who couldn't quite swing a fancy school the first time around. By all accounts she was headed for Ann Coulter-dom until she noticed that the famous people she was interested in fucking were all Democrats.


    But, yes. Without an ounce of talent, at least one F on her college transcript, an explosively ridiculous stint at her college paper that included not only a plagiarism charge but the revelation that her mother was editing her columns, and one transparently lame line on her resume, Julia Allison could be writing for the President if only she'd made wittier conversation at a barbecue.


    There's a difference between waving and drowning, Ms. Allison, and it's clear a mile away.

    @crookedlawyer: I went to Georgetown with her and can confirm all of it. She is a useless specimen and for all that is holy I wish she would discover face wash- piling makeup on top of makeup for a decade has resulted in a rather revolting mask in place of where her face used to be.

    @crookedlawyer: Sadly, I think that her path isn't far off from most Hill employees I know - get a job because of Mommy and Daddy, dick around, get promoted, work your way up the ladder of incompetence. Julia just decided to step off the Legislative Hack ladder and climb on the Fameball one. Maybe she wouldn't've cut it on Barack's team, but I personally know people who were in the white house in exPresident Bushie's administration who were just as pathetic - and unintelligent and untalented - as she is.
