The Douchebag Anti-Defamation League today sent letters to over a dozen prominent right-wing bloggers, demanding that they stop using the perjorative “douchebag” when referring to certain public persons, particularly Barney Frank and Chris Dodd. 
 
The move follows a report that such references have spiked 85% in the past three days, with the term "Congressional Douchebags" rocketing up 5,000%.
 
“We at DADL want to remind these people that douchebags serve an important function and do not at all deserve to be impugned by becoming equated with persons of low morals, intellect, or very often both, such as congressmen.  Women have had confidence in douchebags for decades as something they can count on, whereas no one of any intelligence would ever have any confidence in these nimrods, except for confidence that they can do the worst possible thing at the worst possible time.”
 
At least one blogger issued an apology, writing on his blog “I realize now that my hateful rhetoric has been wrong.  DADL has rightfully pointed out that douchebags serve a purpose, whereas people like Chris Dodd’s only purpose is to keep sunlight from reaching the ground.  And most things on the ground actually want to get sunlight.”
 
DADL suggested bloggers use one of the many existing insults already in circulation.  “It’s the only way to keep this from happening again,” they said in their e-mail.  “Don’t make us form another anti-defamation league!”
