Markos Moulitsas “Screw Them” Zuniga, owner of Daily Kos, now apparently believes he’s the defender of the blogosphere’s integrity and reputation: Daily Kos :: He’ll always be ‘assrocket’ to us.
Please excuse the profanity; I don’t normally put this kind of barely literate ranting on the front page, but it helps to illustrate Kos’s maturity and sense of propriety. Or lack thereof. Hat tip: Soxblog.
Powerline-was-completely-fucking-wrong-gate was a problem not just because their wild-ass accusations about the Schiavo-Martinez memo were completely wrong, not just because media asses like Howie Kurtz took them seriously, but because they harm the reputation of the entire blogosphere.
At a time when we are fighting for credibility, Assrocket’s spectacular flameout knocked everyone down a peg. I wish we could say, “well, it exposed the wingnutosphere as the reality-challenged liars they are”, but fact is, people don’t make any distinctions between the left and right blogworlds. Nor to those who would snuff out the entire medium altogether.
But this is our moment to have fun at Assrocket’s expense:
Enjoy the moment, Kos.

Here’s Power Line’s post about their role in this story; you decide who has more class: Real Memo, Fake Story.
