Title: DUmmies sense a shift in the Netroots
Post by: Karin on April 27, 2010, 09:51:08 AM
The DUmp is boring today, as all they can talk about is Arizona.  The same people keep popping up and they can't talk about anything else.  So, I brought this:

 I've seen it alson on some the AP articles in Yahoo! lately. Or they sometimes leave a dispraportionate number of thumbs down whenever a liberal/progressive comment is posted.

1. They have lots of spare time
 as they are otherwise mostly unemployable.

3. Conservative lobbyists hire people to post these comments. To alter public opinion.

15. Oh wow
 I've always wondered if people were paid to spout some of their crap. Now I see it's true.

Of course it's true, if you read it at the DUmp.  I only wish I could get paid for posting.

5. The local paper where I live I've noticed that
 Our local paper has comments - I rarely comment on the articles any more because it's devolved into a right wing hate fest.

10. Wingers totally dominate 
 our newspaper's comment boards. ...blah blah blah...
Did I mention that one of these wingers is absolutely convinced that Obama wants to turn her into soylent green?

12. I don't think they're being paid
 They're angry and ignorant and anonymous blogs are a way for them to let off steam.

I argue with them all the time and no one's paying me

16. Several years ago someone discovered that local papers
 all over the country were printing the same letter signed by different people. It seems the Repubs had sent out these letters to their members who copied it and attached their names.

No, that was a liberal lefty loon who was doing that.  Can't remember the name.  Definitely an Obamabot.

Where can I get hired to do what I would normally do anyway?  If  I got paid I would do it with more zeal.

Well, you might not be able to fix stupid but no one wants to pay for it either.

Yes, some of the marginally astute among them sense the tsunami that is coming.  It will be comparable with the Bandar Aceh tsunami of Christmas 2004 in the political world.  There will be a huge amount of wailing and gnashing of teeth.  It is darkest just before the dawn.  They know that a new day is coming.

That liberal tard who sent in all those letters was something like Ellie Light.  I will see if I can find the right name for sure though.

Holy crap I was right on the first try!  "She" sent the letter and had it published in 42 different papers.

Seriously. I've been blathering on gratis for nearly ten years. Between this and my day job I could've retired to Bora Bora by now.

Geez--at least you can leave the country!  I've got a choice between downtown Detroit, and the site of an old nuclear weapons factory in Albany. ::)

Well, actually, they are. Anne posts constantly during the school day, when the taxpayers of Kansas City think they are paying her to teach.

*Disproportionate?
No DUmmy, it's because you man-boy-love members, you freaks-fags-furry dykes, you female breast cutting off she/he/IT Underground Panther sexual deviants, you self pliers teeth pulling, you sage commie manifesto quoting, you leftist liberal old hippies ARE the MINORITY in this nation!
The right in this nation, for the past 50 years, have been too lazy in responding to the left's anti-American, liberal bullshit! But, no more! We are here, we're NOT queer, and we fully intend to take you leftist cock-suckers to task at every angle and opportunity.

Get used to it dirt bag, you haven't seen anything yet.
