Is Guido bonkers?

Picture of Guido Fawkes courtesy of www.shmoo.co.ukIt is time to bring the question out into the open: is Guido Fawkes of sane mind?

Going right back to the White charge that he “looks a bit of a prat” this question has periodically arisen. Whereas in the past people made a joke of it, now the issue is becoming a genuine concern. Bloggers discuss it semi-openly and political journalists report evidence of hysterical rants, the rages, the odd behaviour, the drink-driving. The question comes up in private conversations all the time. Justin has heard it seriously suggested that Guido suffers from “functioning alcoholism”.

It is becoming harder to cover it up whatever it is – some blog posts border on totally loony – the repetitive mantras, the obsession with male homosexuality, the uncorrelated bizarre facts, the juvenile bragging about what he got up to last night, the complete inability to empathise.

It is low politics to hurl cheap abuse at opponents, but this is not borne of malice towards Guido, Justin feels like the boy who pointed at the fat bastard and said what everyone was too embarrassed to say. The head of British blogging is clearly at the very least drunk and unable to function under the pressure. The worst is frightening to contemplate, for his blog and the planet…

    Sorry, but I won’t stand for this. To target a man over his sexual confusion and state of mind when what really matters is cock size, I mean *really*…

    Guido Fawkes is a blogger with a great line in scurrilous stories. He’s found his niche and then some.
    Gordon Brown is Prime Minister pf Great Britain.

    Excuse me if I think the mental state of the latter is a little more important than that of the former.

      Doesn’t Paul remind us constantly of his effectiveness in influencing this government? Or does he want things both ways as usual?

    Look, Gordon Brown must be mad and dangerous because he is not a Libertarian. Ergo, and this is axiomatic, he should be locked up in a mental hospital (as should all the other insane non-Libertarians) before he coerces any more sane Libertarians by instigating violence with guns or nukes or bad economics.

  6. [...] So asks Justin McKeating. Now, normally I wouldn’t indulge in such things but I was fascinated by this response to a Liberal Conspiracy article: According to the moonbats the Is Brown Bonkers? meme is cooked up by Guido on the orders of Andy Coulson at CCHQ. [...]
