Tim Russert's entitled child looks like a ****ing yellow lollipop
But that's better than him standing in the Cannon HOB's second floor rotunda imitating a real reporter.

1. I'll never understand the vitriol and hatred directed at Luke Russert.
Okay, so he got into TV news because his father was in it. How can that be any worse than any of the regular news channel bobbleheads who get hired because they look good on camera and can read a script?

8. I don't understand it either, the constant whinning really comes across
as petty, childish and bitter. Who you know and who you are related to is standard in the world of movies, TV and the news. Grow up and get over it, geesh.

6. Envious?
May be in your reincarnation, you're be a lucky seed. Until then Luke Russert has work because many people think that he is a good young journalist.

15. I don't think anyone is asking you to understand.
One understands, or one does not.

2. For what its worth, that poster has been cited elsewhere as a right winger mole
This site is full of them.
When they get banned, they brag about it elsewhere.

3. If someone said it on the Internet, then it must be true.
Respectfully, I'm not going to let some morons on other websites influence the way we run DU. Let 'em brag. Just as long as they spell our URL correctly.

4. You reacted to my second statement, but not my first
You commented on the bragging.
You failed to comment on them being here and being disruptors. Disruptive behavior *does* impact your site.
Skinner doesn't give a shit, it's all about the site traffic.:lmao: Ah, that's a good one.

As WinOne said...a man crush. And a very unhealthy one, me thinks.
Actually, late last night (Saturday) night, I wasn't around here or there, but I did have an exchange of e-mails with our Canaris on Skins's island.Great Canaris reference! nadin is on the google as we speak.
Great Canaris reference! nadin is on the google as we speak.
I figured.
And not only nadin, but all the other primitives, who have no idea who Canaris was.
If the reference had appeared in one of her posts, they would all have assumed she had simply misspelled an unfathomable allusion to birds, possibly meaning their use for warning in coal mines back in the day; some of the Europhiles and self-styled world travelers might possibly think it an equally-misspelled reference to some islands off the Iberian peninsula.
But those of us possessed of intelligence espy your meaning.
:-)
He's whining about us to Skinner again, aw.
make sure i get this right from the context of the posts:There is a reference section next to the DUmpster, the DUmping Ground.
•skinner runs democraticunderground
•which you guys refer to as skinners island
and while im at it, whats the actual meaning of what you guys call a "bouncy". i cant pin it down from context only. i tried googling it and got nowhere.

I assume the Skin's Island reference came from something like Lord of the Flies or possibly Robinson Crusoe. It's a modern-day freak show.
It's Skins's island because democraticunderground is very reminescent of a remote isolated faraway small island in the center of nowhere, its inhabitants unaware of the greater wide world outside.I first noticed the "island" illustration on the update "alerts" while the freepers were killing Andy. It was hilarious.
Or if not that, a small island nearby but enveloped in a poisonous fog, a miasma of ignorance and malice.(http://i6.photobucket.com/albums/y223/dummiedestroyer/skinssisland.jpg)

"Hacking Democracy" - HBO documentary starring Andy Stephenson
http://www.hbo.com/docs/programs/hackingdemocracy/index...
Just got this from Andy's partner, Ted:
"Looks like Andy has hit the 'Big Time!' Andy was in a 30 minute documentary released in 2004 titled "Votergate." But now in time for the elections the film makers (Russ & Rob) have used additional footage to make an updated full length documentary feature titled "Hacking Democracy" and dedicated the film to Andy. It will be released on HBO this coming Thursday, Nov. 2nd. Additional showing will air. Hope you all get a chance to see it! Russ tells me there is footage of Andy in it I haven't seen. I'm on pins and needles! LOL, Ted"
(emphasis mine)
It airs 11/2 at 9pm.

12. Judging by the HBO website, it seems like there's more focus on...
...Bev Harris than anyone else. :grr:
But, nice to see Andy mentioned.

25. I hope someone saved Stephenson's wiki page, because this should put him back up there. This should quell the administrators' problems with him not being famous enough.

Hmmmm, I somewhat know the story of the late Red Round One. The manipulation, and dirty schemes in order to pilfer money. I indeed know of some of the scamdal, however, I wis I was here when it was all going down, because part of me is still in the dark for some reason. I dunno if it's better that way or not...
Is it weird that when I heard that name, I automatically thought of the sitcom "Roseanne?" Her mom in the show. My mind makes odd leaps sometimes, I guess.
Bev Harris scammed more dough out of the moonbat nation than the red round gayboy could ever dream of.
She struck when the iron was white hot, and raked in huge sums.
Thousands of DUmbasses actually thought she could overturn President Bush's reelection, up until, and even after, his second inauguration.
She could have taken them for even more if she could have avoided being such a hateful bitch, but that was asking too much.

It's time to UNLEASH HELL!!
"Skins" was Skinner's rugby-playing nickname at Yale.
Did Skinner really used to play rugby?Right. Skimmer looks a lot more like a prissy little soccerboy.
That's a real sport, and from what I remember he's a skinny little runt - he'd have been snapped in half.
