Sarah Palin Refudiates Self
On the Sean Hannity show, Sarah Palin says Tea Partiers don’t care if President Obama is “half white or half black,” and calls on Obama to “refudiate” the NAACP.
Hee.

Hi Everyone!
Sarah here....
I just wanted to say how awesome it is to always be at the forerunner of the Tea Party. Heck, I just love you guys so muchly. It's really awesome to be held in such high estimation by the people of America, isn't it?! You betcha!
You know, a lot of people have asked me since that interview a few years ago what I read, and I still say: all of it! All the magazines and news stuff that's really hard for a lot of other people to comprendiate.
It's important to educate our kids too so that they learn English and grammar in school, like we did in Alass-ka! After all, where would I be without my grasp of the language of the Bible? See, our Foundational Fathers really were Christians who love this country and Christ, and did everything they could to distill a sense of fellowness in their commendary man. They also wrote the great Constitutional in English, so we should too. People ask me who my favorite fathers are and I always answer Christ, of course. And then Washington...and then some others. What's of majority importance is that we all respect them with deepest regrets.
Anyway, just saying hi and telling it how it is!
Love,
Sarah Palin.

I just this particularly feculent bit of refuse.
While we mock Sarah for her abuse of the English language, let's not overlook the attempted power play or the fact that her rabid and vapid fans - not to mention a large percentage of Fox viewers viewers in general- will pick up on.
The NAACP, along with Thurgood Marshall is now a target. It is not enough to go after out first black president, but they are now going after every thing that made his presidency possible - from civil rights to those brave Americans who stood against racism as a career and still do.
They want a black president to attack a noble organization with a history of fighting the good fight. They want him to do this after that organization said nothing about provocation after racist provocation from the tea party goons for over a year. It took them that long, to see that much, before they passed this resolution condemning the racism of the tea bags. They were that careful about it, even though it was obvious to anyone following the baggers for much, much longer.
They know Obama will not do so and they are already ginning up to complain that since he won't it is evidence - yet more "evidence" of a black conspiracy to favor blacks over whites in America. Why is the NAACP protected they will whine through crocodile tears. They think this is high level political chess. Sadly, it will work with all too many.

No actually, the idea is that if there is more money in the hands of the entrepeneurial class, they will invest more and grow the overall pie so that even at a lower tax rate, more taxes will be collected, but sure simple incorrect synopsis are much easier right.

No actually, the idea is that if there is more money in the hands of the entrepeneurial class, they will invest more and grow the overall pie so that even at a lower tax rate, more taxes will be collected, but sure simple incorrect synopsis are much easier right. Whether wrong or right (I don't know) but you could at least get the reasoning correct.

re: #106 HappyWarrior
Oh you all who are criticizing her are only doing so because you're afraid of her. Seriously, Palin quite honestly is one of the most unlikable politicians I've ever seen. She is everything that Obama's right wing detractors say he is. She's incredibly full of herself, narrow minded, and extremely hostile to anyone who doesn't share her narrow worldview.
She's just another pablum puking wingnut -- one of many. And she's not really effective except for mobilizing a small segment of the American population -- namely Tea Partiers. And there's this:
Although Palin is a tea party favorite, her potential as a presidential hopeful takes a severe hit in the survey. Fifty-five percent of Americans have unfavorable views of her, while the percentage holding favorable views has dipped to 37, a new low in Post-ABC polling.
There is a growing sense that the former Alaska governor is not qualified to serve as president, with more than seven in 10 Americans now saying she is unqualified, up from 60 percent in a November survey. Even among Republicans, a majority now say Palin lacks the qualifications necessary for the White House.
Palin has lost ground among conservative Republicans, who would be crucial to her hopes if she seeks the party's presidential nomination in 2012. Forty-five percent of conservatives now consider her as qualified for the presidency, down sharply from 66 percent who said so last fall.
Among all Republicans polled, 37 percent now hold a "strongly favorable" opinion of Palin, about half the level recorded when she burst onto the national stage in 2008 as Sen. John McCain's running mate.
Among Democrats and independents, assessments of Palin also have eroded. Six percent of Democrats now consider her qualified for the presidency, a drop from 22 percent in November; the percentage of independents who think she is qualified fell to 29 percent from 37 percent.

Having such a tenuous grasp of the English language, she would form words that sounded like, or reminded her of, a word she heard someone else use at some time.
Cannot spell with a gun to her head. Has no idea what some words mean. Constantly mispronounces common words. Most cockatiels have a larger vocabulary.
Words for her were simply used to fill space and emulate what she might be feeling at any given time. Like Sarah, she was either enraged, feeling victimized, exaggerating, crying, condemning, quoting scripture, or being a wholesome cocktease. Through it all, a complete idiot.

There aren't any racist in this house. There is such a cross section of both religions, non-religions, ethnic backgrounds and education levels in this household, it's like the UN.
Yesterday, I get to the restaurant were I was meeting Prairie Fire and family, I get there early, just to make sure I'm there in case they call, or are lost (they did get a little lost and did call). There was this idiot at the bar, watching one of the entertainment magazine shows on TV (I don't know which show, I don't watch TV) and there is a report on Mel Gibson. All during the report, he's clamoring on about how Gibson is not as racist as the remarks made by the Black Panther gut. I mean, he actually was trying to compare racist comments and score them.
It was actually embarrassing, and when Prairie Fire and family did get to the place, I made sure we sat in the dining room instead of up front, cause I didn't want to expose the kids (or anyone really) to that sort of stuff.

re: #117 WindUpBird
Well no it worked for Kennedy, and revenues increased again with it under Reagan. Those cuts all stayed, apart from the return of bracket creep and maybe a few other things. It's the spending that puts in a deficit during years of increasing or even merely stable revenues. The Bush cuts did not have the same dramatic effect as they were not properly tuned and we did not have the same economic issues to resolve as during Kennedy or Reagan.
What we have effectively never seen is a plan to scale back spending when inevitably, revenues decrease in a downturn. The Bush 41 spending limits and paygo are all about trying to get that locked in. Nobody argues that big deficits arer good for an economy. And since economics forecasters were invented to make weather forecasters look good, so we can both find papers as to how the Bush 43 cuts did or did not help the economy.

Charles specifically asked us a while ago to let him know whenever any of us stumbled across nasty stuff from the past here. (he didnt always have the mod tools we have now, including report buttons, and in any case haters always have used the link system and now the page system to try to 'sneak' in evil stuff that they would be busted for in a thread.) So if you run across anything horrible from the past, that's why and what he asked us to do.
Also, it's important. There are haters on the left and right who would (and do) endlessly quote shit from here out of context (or evil stuff that slipped by back then) and use it to smear Charles and LGF.

Not watching him obviously but my guess is he's talking about the episode where Chris dates a girl with Down's Syndrome and she says "My dad's an accountant and my mom's the former governor of Alaska." Weird that he's talking about that now since that episode debuted this past winter.

Well I don't see anybody in the Tea Party giving suggestions on what should be paid with their taxes. I know what they don't want to pay, welfare, healthcare, education to name a few.

When there are tens of thousands of state and federal workers that are retiring and collecting 100,000 plus in pensions and benefits that are indexed and when there are thousands upon thousands of ex civil servants on high payout disability pensions while still in good health and when far too many schools that are still sub par, I believe we are paying too much in taxes.
Personally, I find Sarah Palin to be a most unsuitable candidate for high office fo9r a myriad of reasons.That said, far too much of the vitriol directed against her is personal- and there is no excuse for that. The people who support Palin do so in no small measure because in many ways she has become an underdog. People resent the personal attacks because Palin is a lot more representative of her constituents than the ivory tower crowd.
It's one thing to focus on the many failings of the TP. I for one find the movement immature- and that's on a good day. Nevertheless, the TP writes no bills, passes no laws and is politically responsible for nothing. They are not responsible for poor government, poor policies and the poor showing of our elected representatives. At the moment, the Dems hold a clear majority in both Houses. The inertia and failings cannot be blamed on the GOP, or the TP. It should be clear that rejecting the TP in no way is an endorsement of any other party. In fact, as long as there is poor governance, voters will say 'A pox on both their house' and 'They are all bad- maybe we ought to give the other bums a chance and see what happens. Can't get any worse, right?'
Good governance does not materialize with the demonization of the minority party or political movements that have no power. Good governance comes about as the result of good governance, irrespective of the party in power.
Obsession with the Opposition (and that goes for both the Dems and the GOP) will not and cannot make for good government.
This blog attracts lots of smart people on both ends of the political spectrum- and for good reason. There is a whole lot more to stimulating and intelligent political discourse than bashing the opposition.

An oldie but goodie!
From Bloom County :
Mom: That's the most adorable little colored girl playing outside.
Steve: "Colored"? You're saying "colored people" in 1988? You know better, Ma.
Mom: Then why the "National Association for Colored People? I don't think Negroes mind at all.
Steve: Don't say "Negroes," Ma! You can't say "Negroes"!
Mom: Can I say "United Negro College Fund"?
Steve: You are baiting me, Ma!
Dad: That's it. We're leaving.
Mom: Stay put, Reginald. "Mister Socially Sensitive"isn't finished shaming his parents into enlightenment.
Steve: Everybody just calm down. Let's agree to use the the New-Age term "People of Color."
Mom: People of Color.
Steve: People of Color.
Mom: Colored people.
Steve: NO!!
Dad: We're leaving.

Just to give a side not about the racism of the village, they have an entire thread dedicated to condemning the NAACP. Here is some wit from the witless.
From Buzzy: The NAACP: Not Acknowledging the Advancement of Colored People.
From the Rodent: The NAACP is an arm of the Progressives. They are overseeres to make sure the serfs stay in line.
From Grimcargo (a pathetic hick with a Dixie flag nic): A lot of people learned a long time ago that there is no pleasing the NAACP. They are like the Islamics. Nothing can please them.Except that which sane people will not give. They howl about being free. Dammit theres ships at the harbor why don’t they be free? The party is over.
Savage: On cue – black-muslim enters Tampa daycare with trenchknife to kill cracker babies…
Goddess of the Classroom adds thoughtfully to this discussion: I just cannot listen to rap. I have said that if I’m a very bad girl and am sent to hell, I will have to listen to rap for all eternity.

Nobody really cares what candidates are for, they're more interested in voting vindictively for past bad behaviors or sticking up for their team. 60% of the population is going to vote for their party regardless of the candidate or the parties positions. That leaves the rest of us, 40%, to punish the bad. This election cycle the repubs can run as many nuts as they want and it won't matter a bit. They're still going to win back the house and possibly the senate because the dems have managed to make the republican party look like a viable option thanks to their being completely and totally inept.

She is pretty fabulously repugnant. My read on her is that she was the former sorority girl "queen bee" with her little attendants whom she treated like garbage. She was never particularly bright, or well educated, but always opinionated and convinced of her superiority. After all, she was pretty in an average and unremarkable sort of way and had her little clique that she ruled with her little fist clenched.
Now she is aging, and a little fat. She still has no particular education and is still not terribly bright. But she does have the adulation of a bunch of aging obese cheeto stained screen berets. She can imagine they are jock types and they can imagine she is unaccessible and lovely. They can all pour their bitterness, hatred and ignorance out together.

The Fairy Tale of the NAACP, by the Grim Brothers of Freeperville
Once upon a time there was a beautiful country called the United States of Amnesia. Everyone who came to live there immediately forgot all his quarrels with other kinds of people, and the whole land lived in peace and harmony. Their motto was "all men (and women, obviously) are created equal". And everyone was welcome to come and live in this glorious land. Poles, Germans, Irish, Jews, Muslims, and especially black people from Africa, who were highly prized for their willingness to work hard for next to nothing.
Then, one day, a couple of evil people noticed that people weren't noticing any differences in skin color or facial features, and they thought that was bad, because they wanted to be noticed for those things. So they founded a wicked organization to force people to notice! And, sadly, that great, happy land has never stopped noticing since, and it's not all that happy anymore.

She is pretty fabulously repugnant. My read on her is that she was the former sorority girl "queen bee" with her little attendants whom she treated like garbage. She was never particularly bright, or well educated, but always opinionated and convinced of her superiority. After all, she was pretty in an average and unremarkable sort of way and had her little clique that she ruled with her little fist clenched.
Now she is aging, and a little fat. She still has no particular education and is still not terribly bright. But she does have the adulation of a bunch of aging obese cheeto stained screen berets. She can imagine they are jock types and they can imagine she is unaccessible and lovely. They can all pour their bitterness, hatred and ignorance out together.
Who are we talking about here? Babushka wants in on the lashon hara.

I've got your picture, I've got your picture

Wait... you said "clubland is 6 blocks long" What are you talking about? Off of Bastille Sq. east? That's not the only clubs in the city, far from it. Granted, there is not just a neat row of clubs that go on for miles and miles, but you can find clubs all over the city, and just about any type of music you are looking for, and a lot you'll never see in NYC or Chicago... there is a whole lot of "world music" clubs, featuring an eclectic mix of "pop" flavored traditional music.
The left bank, Montpanasse, north near the Pigalle area... really, maybe you just didn't have time to experience all that's available.

I love the noise a mandolin makes...I'm planning on playing for at least a half-hour a day going forward.

Wingnut kindergarten joke:
"What's half white, half black, and Red all over?"
"President Obama, silly!"
Hurrhurrhurr.
Actually-- Someone just this morning emailed me an extremely disgusting wingnut 'joke' about Obama's mother and the imagined answer she would give him when he asked as a five year old why he was black and she was white.
It was one of the worst things I've ever seen in the wingnut/racist 'joke' list about Obama and his mother.
And i say this as someone who monitors stormfront and other sewage pits regularly.

"That photo of Miles and his red Ferrari was taken on New York's West Side Highway in 1969. We had just shot some portraits in his apartment near Central Park. He said he wanted to go to Gleason's Gym to work out. He was an amateur boxer, as you probably know. Anyhow, we're driving along and I said, 'Miles, pull over. Let's do some shots of you and this totally cool car.' He said 'yes,' we did, and then proceeded to the gym where he threatened to knock me out…" -Baron Wolman

The saucy doll winking. She is a good girl, but she wants something a little more...
The entire enticing phantom of the opera meme. The Phantom of the Opera, Anne Rice/ True Blood type vampires/ dissipated noblemen are all classic subbie fodder. If you meet a woman who is really into those things and corsets... well.... ;)
The real point is that this is the alluring male presence that will consume her.
Then she gets sucked into this wider world and loses control. More to the point, he takes it. It is not even close to being a difficult interpretation. As to flak, I adre that I am giving those people coronaries.

and I think I can see how you're pinned.
When you're not feeling holy,
your loneliness says that you've sinned."

I've stated before that it doesn't 'hurt my feelings'. this is not about my poor little feelings.
This is about the pattern everywhere, on the net and elsewhere, of using sexual slurs to put women 'in their place'. Damn right I'm angry. And that is why. It's not about 'me'. People should object to this disgusting shit everytime and everywhere they see it. Not because they 'like the woman' it's directed at or don't.
Because it's the decent and right goddamn thing to do.
Could it possibly be more clear than that? Misogynists do this. It's not only an attack on the individual woman. It's on ALL WOMEN. and it should be called out for what it is. Period.

In fact, I'll go further. This may sound odd, but to me, Cohen and Dylan were always poets in the greatest tradition of the Tribe. There is something prophetic (and not in the sees the future sense, more in the biblical sense) about them when they are at their best.
I think Cohen is the better poet, but Dylan is more interesting musically.

You don't know me from the wind
you never will, you never did
I'm the little Jew who wrote the Bible
I've seen the nations rise and fall
I've heard their stories, heard them all
but love's the only engine of survival
Your servant here, he has been told
to say it clear, to say it cold:
It's over, it ain't going
any further
And now the wheels of heaven stop
you feel the devil's riding crop
Get ready for the future:
it is murder.
And:
You say I took the name in vain
I don't even know the name
But if I did, well really, what's it to you?
There's a blaze of light
In every word
It doesn't matter which you heard
The holy or the broken Hallelujah

Jews believe--and this is a fundamental belief of Judaism--that all righteous people have a place in the world to come ( [Link: www.jewfaq.org...] ). This is one reason why Jews don't proselytize--there's no need to! It's not like we condemn non-followers to die a horrible, painful, burning death (as some other religions do).

Glorious. A pity Charles was never able to play that song with her singing. He's done epic work on the guitar portions of "Summertime" and her vocals are a triumph. That would have been a beautiful combination.

I've been camping the last seven of nine days. I don't camp well--basically I have trouble sleeping not in a real bed.
Well, there was also the part about being the adult in a cabin of ten fifteen year-old girls. Next year I'm threatening to tape record it all and play it back for the boys they were discussing. The part after eleven p.m., that is. I'll be nice before eleven.*

This is the story of Hezekiah Jones...
Hezekiah Jones lived in a place... in Arkansas.
He never had too much, except he had some land,
An' he had a couple of hogs and things like that.
He never had much money
But he'd spend what he did make as fast as he made it,
So it never really mattered that he had much money.
But in a cupboard there, He kept in the cupboard... he kept in the cupboard books,
He called the books his "rainy season."
The white folks around the county there talked about Hezekiah...
They... said, "Well... old Hezekiah, he's harmless enough,
but the way I see it he better put down them goddam books,
Readin' ain't no good, for n***** is n*****."
One day the white man's preacher came around
Knockin' on doors, knockin' on all the doors in the county,
He knocked on Hezekiah's door.
He says, "Hezekiah, you believe in the Lord?"
Hezekiah says, "Well, I don't know, I never really SEEN the Lord,
I can't say, yes, I do..."
He says, "Hezekiah, you believe in the Church?"
Hezekiah says, "Well, the Church is divided, ain't they,
And... they can't make up their minds.
I'm just like them, I can't make up mine either."
He says, "Hezekiah, you believe that if a man is good Heaven is his last reward?"
Hezekiah says, "I'm good... good as my neighbor."
"You don't believe in nothin'," said the white man's preacher,
You don't believe in nothin'!"
"Oh yes, I do," says Hezekiah,
"I believe that a man should be indebted to his neighbors
Not for the reward of Heaven or fear of hellfire."
"But you don't understand," said the white man's preacher,
"There's a lot of good ways for a man to be wicked..."
Then they hung Hezekiah high as a pigeon.
White folks around there said, "Well... he had it comin'
'Cause the son-of-a-bitch never had no religion!"

Ask yourself why...
yes, I know the history of most of them, I was around for many of the melt-downs, threats, and stupidity. Let it go, it will go away, the only time I think about them is when you (and others) bring them up becuase you (or others) have been reading what they are posting and reporting it here.

BTW, our family vacation to CA ended at the awesome Giant Forest in Sequoia National Park with a family photo in front of General Sherman, the incredible most massive tree on the planet. Its hard to grasp just how big that tree is. The circumference at the base is over 100 feet. I figure it would take like 20 tree huggers to hug that tree. And I'm sure some a-hole would have cut it down 100 years ago if there was a saw big enough for the job. I'm glad its still there. That was the coolest thing we saw in 8 days of trekking around the State.

And Republicans keep kicking queers
Republican congressmen: totally okay with radical islam if it means they can kick queers!
Two Republican congressmen are urging other countries -- including, potentially, some where homosexuality is a crime punishable by death -- to vote against an American-led effort in the U.N. to recognize a respected international gay rights group.
But two Republicans, Reps. Chris Smith (NJ) and Trent Franks (AZ), have written a letter, obtained by TPMmuckraker, to the many of the other countries on the council urging them to vote against the resolution.
They claim that the LGBT rights group is a threat to human rights, including freedom of religion.

May be old news from earlier today, but according to Michael Steele, the Tea Party is not racist. That's name calling, and simply not true, according to Mr. Steele.
Tea Party activists are your mom or dad, your local grocer, banker, hairdresser or doctor.
Except my mom wouldn't misspell simple shit on signs she carried, and my hairdresser isn't a closet klukker. But other than that - sure - they're exactly the same.

An old married couple from a small town reached their 75th anniversary. The local paper sent out a reporter to do a story on them. He asked the old lady what the secret of their happy marriage was.
She smiled, patted her husband;s shoulder and said:
Ohhh... he's so sweet, I could never divorce him!
She then asked if they would like some lemonade. The reporter said please thank you, and she got up to make some.
When they were private, the reporter asked the old man the same question, what is their secret.
The old man said...
Son, let me tell you a story. When we were first married, on our honeymoon, we took a mule packing trip to the Grand Canyon.
When we were maybe 1/3 the way down, my wife's mule stumbled. She looked a bit cross and said "that's once."
when we were two thirds of the way down her mule almost tripped.
She looked real mean and said: "THAT'S TWICE!"
We made it to the bottom, by the river there, and that poor mule stumbled a third time. My wife said "That's three times" real cold like, hopped off that poor dumb animal, pulled out an enormous pistol and BANG shot it dead, right between the eyes.
I looked at my wife. I said why did you do that? What did that poor dumb beast ever do to you? Now there are two of us at the bottom of the Grand Canyon and only one mule.
She looked at me and said:

re: #925 MellyMel
If you read this blog regularly, and I'm sure you do, there are numerous instances where outright racism is tolerated and on full display within multiple TP organizations. These aren't isolated instances, or a few bad apples. It's enabled, perpetuated, discussed within the party at length.
I have yet to see Michael Steele say anything of consequence to address the problem within the ranks, much less admit it. The man lives in such denial, I wouldn't be surprised if he has a Confederate flag over his bed, since the Civil War "wasn't about slavery."
The Tea Party allows some of the worst racists in the game to be their featured speakers, and have consistently aligned themselves with extremist groups. Just because Michael Steele says it isn't so, does not make it true. It only makes him look more ignorant and gutless.
I, for one, could not stand beside people who ignore, tolerate, and promote the racist insanity alive and well with the Tea Parties. I suggest you and Dr. Shalit commiserate.

Well that would explain why the stalkers are so jealous of you.
Here is something priceless.
Earlier today I posted that I gave them bad dreams. I wrote: #519 this thread:
And I make them have bad dreams. In those dreams, Jesus did things like feed the poor and the hungry and he went around curing people for free.
Damned hippie!
The Rodent.. clearly drunk as usual...wrote:
White Supremacist has insulted Latins, declares who is Jewish or not and now he mocks Jesus. He is not a Christian and doesn’t understand the religion. He goes on and compares Jesus to a hippie.
Ludwig knows nothing about Jesus and should keep his mouth shut. Add anti-Christian to the many labels this Fascist has.
Well Just for Rodent, I should add that I am not the one claiming to be Christian and you are clearly sarcasm impaired, but I should also add that:
Jesus was something of a community organizer, Pilot was a governor, and that Jesus had skin the "color of burnished bronze" which is a very Obama like complexion. Jesus also saw the corruption of the Temple by the Roman government and was appalled. He didn't like plutocrats abusing faith to gain power.
It is really sad when the "crusaders" know less about their own books than the Jew boy. Of course, that is ironically what Jesus had to say about people like Rodent also.

I find it very hard to understand how anyone can judge him without knowing that it takes great courage to be a black person AND be a conservative. That being said, I do not condone everything anyone does based on the color of their skin, but he really has put up with a lot for just being a black conservative.

Sarcasm usually goes right over his head. So if you say about Jesus "hippie!" off it goes over his head with a sonic boom as it travels over the follicles of his hair at the speed of sound.
One of the main reason they fall for this trap too is because often they're so unfocused because they're trying to post on two blogs while watching over this one 24/7.

Pre-qualifier!! I admit I haven't had much time to post or pay close attention to politics lately, but -- I really don't get the Palin bashing going on here. Yes, she mis-spoke and is clearly not a polished "Politician." But I would really like to know what makes her so hated and/or disliked. Frankly, I prefer the person who mis-speaks over the life-long born and bred liar (er, politician).
Search LGF posts for "Palin" and then you'll understand.

They crave our attention. They're not getting mine.
They'll have to go back to crying over their ragweasel every night and sticking pins in their Gus802 voodoo doll and hatefapping themselves to sleep-- without my assistance.
And the underlying reason why they have to furiously hatefap themselves to sleep like this every night? It's the fact that we met each other here, fell in love, got married and are now set to live happily together, whereas they are a bunch of no hope, cheeto-stinking, and tragically virginal arse biscuits. That's what really rips their knitting, as we say around these parts.

I don't hate Sarah Palin. Perhaps it's more a dislike of her rhetoric and style. Sometimes in threads like this the rhetoric is just jibing and plain old fun. If you read the thread you'll find that nobody said anything wildly out of line about here. It's been rather PG for the most part.

This site is unique though in that you won't find many other political blogs where the members or commentators are the topic of another blog and with such intensity. You won't find a blog, for example, on Kos posters where people are making screen shots or cutting and pasting their comments and making it the topic of discussion on a daily basis. At least none that I can think of. It's like I said earlier about Breitbart or let's say even Hot Air. I've posted some Hot Air comments but I can't even remember their names. I did it only about a dozen times. A few of those times I even stripped the nicknames.

I believe it's because LGF's comment system and its registration, is more of a closed system, it's more intimate. So when people are banned, and thus robbed of the intimate environment that they've sort of (mistakenly) convinced themselves that they have some ownership of, they lose their minds. It throws their lack of power over this community they thought was theirs into stark relief, so they just get the rage virus about it.

I find it very hard to understand how anyone can judge him without knowing that it takes great courage to be a black person AND be a conservative. That being said, I do not condone everything anyone does based on the color of their skin, but he really has put up with a lot for just being a black conservative.

The view here among the wingnuts who used to dominate the comments on the site was that LGF was like the 'sekrit wingnut nolleej klub' - no one knew anything before they joined - you could be a nobel prizer winner; it didn't matter - you were deemed to know fuck all about anything if you were a recent registrant.

re: #1014 Jimmah
The view here among the wingnuts who used to dominate the comments on the site was that LGF was like the 'sekrit wingnut nolleej klub' - no one knew anything before they joined - you could be a nobel prizer winner; it didn't matter - you were deemed to know fuck all about anything if you were a recent registrant.

Remember that one time we both went into a dead thread? It was barely a dead thread. Anyway, one of the now blocked "old timers" followed us in there and went psycho on us. Don't mention any names because I remember who it was.
Did we ever have a skirmish? I know I was an ass to Austin_Blue for about a week.

Some (but not all) of the bullying of new people here represents people who are very angry about LGF no longer being a 'sekrit wingnut nolleej klub' or playground for them and their banned buddies. They're mostly pissed about the 'revelation' that Charles didn't think like them.
Most of those types first got bant or flounced during the creationism wars, I gather.

Yep - and when Charles noticed that people were being hounded off the site for not being creationists, he told them straight - this is not your house. They never got over it. The creationist bannees are among the most bitter and obsessive of the lot.

I fell in love. :) The only thing better was the AGW rickroll jimmah did.

That was big turning point for me: the pirate incident.
Oh look! Uncle Jimbo didn't like it. I see a familiar name there or two.

re: #1054 iceweasel
i still have a policy of avoiding the threads that I know will bring out the REALLY rampant ODS and anger. State of the Union speeches, pretty much anything like the somali pirate incident, gaza flotilla-- I had my eyes opened here the night of the Scott Brown election and it was disgusting. People were cutting loose.
Never again.
That was a pretty ugly night. I wasn't expecting it.
I suppose I'll keep an alert eye out come the midterms.

Oh cripes that still happens. Every time Obama makes a speech it's like pass out the froth buckets.
And it turns out that Scott Brown is more centrist than they thought. He's not so far off from being like Olympia Snowe or Susan Collins. You don't hear a peep about that though.
I can't say I'm sorry about that, either.

I expected it. You can't be a wingnut and remain a Senator for Mass.

Almost everybody declared HCR dead, including lots of liberals. Jonathan Chait was one of the few bloggers who kept some perspective after the MA election.
Wrote on the day after Scott Brown's victory:

Here is what I think will happen. The shock and panic will play itself out over a few days. Then the Democrats will assess the situation and realize that letting health care die represents their worst possible option. And then they will make a deal to pass the Senate bill through the House. I am not positive this will happen, but it's my bet, because elected officials at the national level, dim though they can be, are usually shrewd enough to recognize their political self-interest.

I hear you! The days following the Scott Brown election were pretty tough in the blogs I hung out too. But what a delicious comeback -- it almost made you forget that this bill is still pretty flawed. Call me petty, but the full conservative meltdown on the days following the bill's passage was EXTREMELY gratifying.
Yes! I just go check out (and inflict) wingnut butthurt elsewhere whenever necessary.
Here is a fun tip: as many times as necessary to counteract ODS , just take a break, time travel, and read a little from election night. :)
AHAHAHAH Sweet sweet tears.

Yes, he was good. But melted off into the creationist land.
Sort of like Goddess of the classroom, or Furry old guy jeans.
Been there, done that, they weren't what I thought they were.
Now in the Village of the Banned.
SNORK ALERT.
(BTW, WTF is a Snork??)
