Unwelcome Linkage

Sat, Jun 7, 2008 at 9:27:29 pm PDT

The ‘noquarter’ blog run by Larry Johnson has been added to the blacklist for spinoff links; I won’t allow any more links to that site because it’s been proven many times over to be dishonest and untrustworthy. Unfortunately there are quite a few people who apparently have not gotten the message (I just had to delete 13 links to that pit), so it’s being automatically blocked now.

I’m not going to let LGF be used to disseminate dirty tricks and misinformation, for either side of this misbegotten election.

Links to the lunatic “Pastor Manning” and his raving nonsense will also be deleted; so don’t bother posting them here.

That is all.

Well speculation or assertions as to someone's sexual orientation is pointless anyway as it has no impact on one's ideology and thus their expected behavior in elective office.

When the media can become more important that the voice of the people. We have a problem. This is a historical election. But not because of what many may think. It’s historical because we have witnessed the fall of the Democratic Party as we used to know it.

But the site is full of crap, lies and posturing. While I am not a "friend of Dorothy," spending time there caused me to repeat, "there's no place like home, there's no place..."

Speaking of the "Dear Leader", Kim Jong-il's official biographers claim that his birth at Baekdu Mountain was foretold by a swallow and heralded by the appearance of a double rainbow over the mountain and a new star in the heavens.

The Obamessiah needs to get himself some new biographers if he wants to wrest that title from Kimmy. Maybe they can discuss it when he meets him without preconditions.

Well a dick that gives a left turn signal when aroused was simply too much of a clue. Then there was the alcoholism, the coke treatment, the mood drugs, and all the other things i imagine because he refused to release his records.

It should be written into rules and regulations - release your records or fagetaboutit

What does it mean when the error message says: This does not appear to be a URL

It means you have an error in the URL. A bad character or a space in the wrong place are likely candidates.

I still think Johnson did this to benefit Hillary. I have to admit some Conservative web sights went with this, but most warned Johnson was less than trustworthy. I guess he was hoping it would get more coverage, and just enough worry to turn voters, and especially "super" delegates to Hillary.Guess it didn't work.

I agree, that's a very likely explanation.

That is a point. Johnson's entire spiel was that he got this from the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy.
I rarely agree with Fred Barnes, but I do on this. The sermons are available. They are all crazy. It is a crazy church. The Obamas are members. But they are not crazy.

It's happened on several when I've selected all, copied and pasted - couldn't figure out what was wrong - even tried reloading the news site and got the same URL

That's a wise decision, Charles.

But who is Pastor Manning?

re: #84 nigella

Looks like whatever McCain chooses for his theme song gets complaints from the wacko singers who did the songs. Seems most "artists" are Obama sympathizers. I know there is someone out there who probably wouldn't object, but most are afraid to be seen on the "wrong" side.


That reminded me of a piece of Orwell I read just this afternoon:
"It was a time of labels, slogans and evasions. At the worst moments you were expected to lock yourself up in a constipating ittle cage of lies; at the best a sort of voluntary censorship ("Ought I to say this? Is it profascist?") was at work in nearly everyone's mind. it is almost inconceivable that good novels should be written in such an atmosphere. good novels are not written by orthodoxy-sniffers, not by people who are conscience-stricken about their own orthodoxy. good novels are written by people who are not frightened."

Absolutely. He tried to moby an election. And he'd a gotten away with it, if it wasn't for those meddling kids and that dog...

nothing was going to stop the supers - they saw the writing on the wall - Obama supporters were NOT going to take No for an answer - they figured the women would be mature - consider that McCain is pro-life and hold their noses and vote for obama

The records date back to Obama’s last examination 16 months ago.

/it's not a law, it's just custom

Gah, the comments on that site... like this:

Olivia on May 31st, 2008

I really dont think its their business honestly.. Yea people want to kno if there president is healthy but to that deep in his business is unnessasary! Leave him only because he is black.. Do yall get ALL the president and president candidates health records?!?! HECKA NAW! So why do yall need Obama’s?!?! Oh yea because he’s BLACK! Yall need to get over yall selves and accept he jus might win this thing!..

And this:

LOVELY on May 31st, 2008

I think that OBAMA medical records are totally unnessary. I never in history seen a request for any other canadiate’s medical record to be pubically released. There a series of mental and pysically test that I feel that a canadiate showed endure but for him to have to release his medical history is totally an act of ingorance, on the behalf of people who we elect to run our country. VOTE OBAMA not just because he is BLACK but because he is REAL! It’s over a 1000 years due WE NEED CHANGE!

I weep for our future sometimes. UGH
