Last time we heard about Bob Ney he was giving us his own personal recipe for disaster in the run up to the invasion of Iraq.Bob Ney's Freedom FriesTake 100,000 Iraqis, strip naked and boil for 2 years in crude oil, add a pinch of US marines and beat to within an inch of their lives. Serve with a suppressed grin.Well old Bob has been cooking up a storm once again, this time serving up policy

Further to the recent Irish Government post, this is an unrelated story relating to a Clonmel native. Just a note to let y'all know the calibre of people (or should I say primitive hominid species?) who rejected the Asian special Olympians in case they might have SARs.

I bring to your attention an urgent humanitarian disaster. It is unfolding in the Rube Watch Forum as I type. It appears that there are at least two females out there who have been engaged in sexual congress with our patriarch. This is a foul notion for several reasons, but the most insidious of all is that the Uber Rube is attempting to breed, create a little master-of-fuck-all race if you will.

The supposedly de-glammed Oscars took place amidst much soul-searching and wringing of hands over whether it was appropriate for the beautiful people to turn up and celebrate how fucking great they all are while Iraqis were having their heads caved in by US Tomahawks, most of which inner turmoil turned out to be so

You can sell anything to a rube provided you attach the word "technology". Take for instance these shoes which I've seen paraded around in my workplace. Good for your back they say. How the fuck could this be good for the body? If the design of the human race required additional cushioning or springs in your feet then we'd have evolved them. Early man spent several hundred millenia walking around

“If a tree falls in the woods and no-one is around to hear it, does it really make a sound?” See, even Confucius was a bit of a Rube, but hey, little did he know that in our post-9/11 society where danger and evil are rife, he’d have a point. If you’re getting murdered or are the unwitting victim of terror and you scream for help and no-one is around to hear, do you really make a sound? Make your

On March 17th I had the misfortune to be tuned into CNN for an update on the tumultuous events of that day, when I witnessed some idiotic news coverage. The two anchors Carol Costello and Aaron Brown, were waiting for the Rube in Chief to make his ultimatum to the other butcher of Baghdad. I'm pretty sure Brown was jerking off under the table at the prospect of a war. At around the same time,

You’ll probably have noticed something about us here at Rube Watch. We don’t seem to tackle the big issues. OK, I can see that from a certain point of view, but that only comes from a deep misunderstanding of the threat that Rubery poses to our world. You see, this is the big issue, this is the only issue that we should be worrying our little heads about. War, famine, poverty, Yates Network,

Here is a collection of rube variants courtesy of our comrade over at sciatica.What happens when rubes get access to computers (apart from The Yates Report of course)? Well I'll show you what...Read the fucking manual Rube.Rube classifieds.Online Diary. The content smells like a hoax, but the photograph has to be real. Its a textbook rubeface. Use it to help identify rubes in your area. Picture

Twirling and spinning his way into the Rube Watch crosshairs today is pointy-headed Popstars Rube Keith Semple, for no other reason other than I just remembered how much the flaccid little fuck-knuckle infuriates me so. I figure it is only a matter of hours (the countdown begins here) before he is officially declared yet another casualty of the fickle world of teeny-pop culture, another

...except the total fucking rubes at O'Neill's pub in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Who refused to accept our Irish driver's licences as valid ID last night resulting in the St. Paddy's celebrations out here in the desert taking place exclusive of real Irish people. We went to a Hawaiian bar instead. The rules are the rules. Well, the rubes are the rubes too, I suppose.

Irish-American Rube WatchThis beautiful and imaginative Irish-American Rube Watch is an ideal gift for any Rube looking to declare their membership of the Irish genepool. Representing the Rubic attachment of Irish Americans to that tiny island they've never been to and their bizarre ignorance of its history, people and politics, the Irish-American Rube Watch brands your Rube a Rube every second

Much of the discussion (and criticism) on this page is directed at Rubes of North American lineage. In the spirit of equality, and also to establish that there is no "anti-Americanism" lest there be an Ulster Fry boycott, it is necessary that we put on display some of the worlds most accomplished Rubes.I refer you to the DUP (Democratic Unionist Party). For our American readers we must clarify

In my tireless mission to unearth Rubists the world over I came across this during a particularly stultifying search through Bushcountry. I am absolutely in favour of the use of humour to advance political argument as it provides a unique perspective outside the realm of traditional debate. Much like mathematics or science where an idea or a equation is taken to extremes in order to test its

Yeah, yeah, we hear ya.“What’s all this got to do with me?” you say. “These rubes haven’t invaded my personal bubble. It’s not like they’ve bombed my Twin Towers, dragging me into a war on Rubism”, you continue.Fine, but you wait until some rubey fucknut lands some of this kinda bullshit all up in your piece and we’ll discuss the matter further. Here we have the email of a Rube shopped in to Rube

Beware the flourishing of Rubism in our governments. Bob Ney, a Republican Representative in The US house of Representatives is hereby elevated to the Hall of Rubes. In his official House website, he and his cronies argue that they are making the change in support of the US military personnel who "are putting their lives on the line to ensure the freedom and security of others". But surely the

Every once in a while, there comes a man. A man who commands the respect of the multitudes. A man whose very presence demands your full attention. Someone so possessed of wisdom and insight that the answers to all our most troubling issues can be divined simply by gazing deep into the shimmering warmth of his eyes. Every once in a while, there comes a man to whom you just can't afford not to

Well holy shitballs, people, we may have found a rival to Brian. This super-rube, uncovered by Rube Watch today, displays the characteristics of each Rube to have already entered the Hall. Like Brian, he proclaims his turgid righteousness, puffing his chest like a red white and blue peacock on heat in that foggy world of theirs. Like Jeremy, he is older than the usual spotty pubescent rubes we

BushCountry.org, hotbed of Olympic-standard Rubism, has a cautionary tale for all of us: a hapless rube's innocent encounter with GAY INTERNET PORN.Our erstwhile rube, acting as only a true red-blooded heterosexual would, performed a google search using the name of a "local homosexual group". What a surprise it was for our man when he found himself face to arse with "sickening hard-core

Finally, Rube Watching is no longer merely an idea. No more does it exist in random insultory postings on rubey websites and joke emails to friends and colleagues of a similar bent. All of sudden we have direction, our efforts combined and condensed on one page, a portal to the rubes of this fair world, a portal to be used to mock and jeer our rubic enemies, a place where you, an Ordinary, can
