Since benburch has the reputaion of being a flat out wacko, even among his fellow DUmmies, it caught my attention when I saw this THREAD posted by William Rivers (Pied Piper) Pitt with the following headline message: *BENBURCH NEEDS TO PM ME RIGHT NOW*. Of course, I had to click on the link to find out what was so important that Pied Piper Pitt needed to hear from benburch right away. Was it some sort of kinky sex act for which benburch has a reputation for engaging in? No. It turned out to be sensationalism of another nature. Pitt is DESPERATE to become part of Michael Moore's "documentary" about health care (wonder if Hillary will be interviewed for this?) and wants to contact benburch to get their stories right when presenting the case of Andy Stephenson to Moore. And, of course, Pitt is in DESPERATE need of presenting a cleansed account of the Andy Stephenson situation because he wants to place the doubts prevelant a year ago about the veracity of Stephenson squarely on the shoulders of the EVIL Freepers. See, in the Pied Piper Pitt fairy tale version, he heroically stood up to the Freepers which conveniently leaves out his own ATTACK upon Andy's veracity as you can see in the title of that thread, I'm pretty upset right now, and I need an explanation. And not only was Pitt troubled by the facts of the Andy Stephenson case. Head DUmmie Skinner himself expressed his dubiousness about all this in this THREAD titled, "About the Andy Stephenson situation." The end result was that Skinner finally banned outside fundraising in DUmmieland (prior to the Stephenson fundraiser, the DUmmies were scammed bigtime by Bev Harris). So now we have Pied Piper Pitt attempting to rewrite history with the help of DUmmie benburch. Sorry, Pitt. We have YOU on Record as to what you said at the time and there is NO denying it. And as to Andy's situation, he was supposedly diagnosed with pancreatic cancer as early as February of last year but chose to delay an operation until May because he wanted it done at Johns Hopkins rather than right away in his home state of Washington where the medical care was available to him there. I don't know if Moore will end up inserting some sort of fiction that Andy was denied healthcare because of EVIL rightwingers but the CONTRARY facts are right here on the Web. So let us now watch Pied Piper Pitt try to capitalize on Andy's death in Bolshevik Red while the comentary of your humble correspondent, reminding everyone out there unfamiliar with benburch to check up on his many DUmmieland postings to get an idea of what kind of lunatic asylum he is coming from, is in the [brackets]:
*BENBURCH NEEDS TO PM ME RIGHT NOW*
[We need to sanitize our stories before presenting them to Jabba the Shmuck.]
I just talked to a producer for Michael Moore's new health care documentary about Andy Stephenson. They are strongly considering putting his story - specifically the fact that he needed friends to fundraise for him - into the documentary. Ben, write me. Now.
[Ben, if you haven't yet been incarcerated, write me now. Hopefully you haven't been hanging around any schoolyards. Please, benburch, I wanna be in the movies. I wanna BEEEEEEEEE somebody!!!]
I hope they do his story ...fingers crossed.. That would be a great way to memorialize him..
[I can guarantee that this Pied Piper Pitt QUOTE will never make it into Jabba the Shmuck's documentary: "Why was I personally told this was pancreatic cancer? Why was I allowed to repeat this now-inaccurate diagnosis many times without anyone correcting me?"]
Will They Mention how the freeps conspired against him?
[Will they mention how Skinner AND Pied Piper Pitt "conspired" against him. Here is a Skinner QUOTE which is something LESS than a ringing endorsement: "I have my own opinion about whether this is legit or a hoax, but it is only that: an opinion. I do not know the truth."]
That story is so crazy and awful, and is also a little to the side of the main point of the documentary, which is the high cost of health care. They may include it to show how easy it is for someone's healet care to get messed with.
[I'm sure if Jabba the Shmuck includes the Stepehenson case in his "documentary" he will make Andy out to have been deprived of health care. The TRUE facts are that Stephenson could have gotten treatment from the get go in his home state of Washington but CHOSE to delay to get surgery at John's Hopkin's. Subsequently Andy passed away from a staph infection.]
Paging BENBURCH...
[Have you checked the bordertown massage parlors?]
Oh my god, what a wonderful tribute to Andy if his story was featured in a Michael Moore film.
[And you can be sure that Pied Piper Pitt is straining to get his mug before the cameras to capitalize on Andy's death.]
Isn't he the webmaster at The White Rose Society?
[Yes. When he isn't hanging out at the S&M parlors.]
Does anyone remember exactly how much $$$ was raised for Andy? I can't remember now but I know it was a lot.
[How much $$$ was scammed in DUmmieland by Bev Harris for her 5-star hotel suites?]
So I asked termite if he would go on-camera to talk about it...since he is the one who was there with Andy. Termite declined.
[Hmmmmmmmm...]
Mainstream exposure of what the freeps did to Andy Lies have to be hidden, but the truth can run around in the sunshine. Well the light of truth will shine on this story and expose the freeps for what they truly are
[How about mainstream exposure of what Pitt did to.....? And back to the topic at hand, here is another Pied Piper Pitt QUOTE: "But the 400 people who will come into this thread with "Andy doesn't need this stress" can hold your water. Andy is apparently a hell of a lot less ill than I and others were led to believe, and I need some answers."]
Andy's story was a classic example of how difficult it is for uninsured cancer patients to access quality health care. Its a disease where a delay of a week or more in getting treatment can mean the difference between life or death, its tragic. Cancer care is truly becoming an area where those who can't afford to pay get delayed or inferior care.
[Andy's story is an example of how someone DID have access in his home state to health care. Instead he chose delay in order to go to John's Hopkins after a lot of DUmmieland fundraising which raised the SUSPICIONS of even Skinner who subsequently banned such fundraising.]
The way you worded it could be interpreted a couple of different ways. Is Michael Moore is doing a new health care documentary about Andy Stephenson? Or was it that you talked---about Andy Stephenson---to Michael Moore's producer, who is doing a health care documentary? Either way... this whole thing could be a nice feather in your cap, eh?
[Do I detect I hint of dubiousness about Pied Piper Pitt's self-serving motivations?]
No feather for me. They reached out to me because Moore is doing a documentary on health care and was told by someone else that Andy's story should be part of the whole. I basically gave the producer the back story and then set her up with the people who were closest to the fundraising. If you look at Moore's site, you'll see his letter about the documentary. He is looking for healthcare horror stories from anyone who has one.
[You saw an opportunity for self-promotion and grabbed it, Pitt. Unfortunately for you, this edition of the DUmmie FUnnies is presenting FACTS that you conveniently want to forget or attempt to airbrush away with your future co-conspirator, benburch. If Jabba the Shmuck uses the Andy Stephenson case in his "documentary," there are many editions of the DUmmie FUnnies that can be referenced to set the record straight.]
I really hope this happens, if it is cool with Termite, because this is exactly what Andy wanted to do -- shine a light on our criminal excuse for a healthcare system.
[You can bet that any Jabba the Shmuck "documentary" on healthcare will be one long commercial as to why we need socialized medicine like they have in Canada.]
I hope they tell everything about his story - including the smear campaign while he was dying.
[Including quotes from PITT and SKINNER.]
The primary focus is on how we had to raise money to get him help. When in any decent nation on the planet, that would have been an understood part of citizenship. But my understanding is that they DO intend to go after the freepers at least in passing. Those goons should expect to come out of their places of employment to find camera crews waiting at their cars...
[Ah! DUmmie benburch finally emerges from the classified sex ads to "enlighten" us about Andy. Medical care WAS available to Andy in his home state of Washington but I wouldn't expect any documentary from Jabba the Shmuck to mention this.]
Let me know if you want on the DUmmie FUnnies PING List.
PING!
PING!
10!
5
Top ten for the first time ever?
Top 10?
Pitt has PMs?
Woo hoo! Can it be?? TOP TEN!! YESSSS!!!!!
Now to read...
Sorry for the double Ping. I let that slip by. Will try to prevent it more in the future.
An afternoon FUnnies! yay.
Top 20!
top 20?
These Idiots do not understand the freedom they have to be able to do a fund raiser for Andy. If Hillary and the rest get their health care passed he would have been lucky to have it done by a back alley butcher.
LOL, bring it on Jabba! Id like to see one of these America haters get on my work property. I was very vocal of the scams on DU, I hope Im a target of this crockumentary. Hear that Jabba? Wipe the onion dip off of your chin, and try rooting for your country for once..
Top 20! I need a life.
Do these idiots not realize that if their socialist dream of government health care came to bear, dear Andy would probably be dearly departed Andy due to lack of availability of care?
May I suggest a random call to patients at any Canadian clinic?
Mercy, top 30?
Actually MOST of the DUFUs for the next couple of weeks will probably be PM DUFUs in the evening. Have stuff I gotta do in the AM until May.
Where he desecrates the name of a group of heroic dissidents who risked (and ultimately lost) their lives in opposing the Third Reich (not to be confused with Pitt's concept of the "Third American Empire" as a similar institution).
The sickest I ever got in the past 10 years was ritht a plane trip back from Costa Rica. Within a couple of days after my arrival here, I started to feel a flu setting in. Then I was off my feet for a couple of weeks and felt sick for the next 6 weeks. That recycled air on planes will do that to you. If just ONE person on the plane is sick, you are
I, I wanna be famous
I, I wanna be a star
I, I want to be on the "A" list
I want Gwyneth in my arms
sorry, little known song (like 10,000 people bought the album), but one of my favorites
anyhow, i was driving up to DC last year to see the new Star Wars and fiddling with the radio when 'The Candy Man' came on. I stopped on that station b/c it was motzman's 'The AndyScam' song, your lyrics were stuck in my head.
Exact same thing happened to me after a flight to Denver. Kicked my butt big time, and just like you, it hit 2 days after arriving and took 6 weeks before I was totally back to normal. I'm not sure I've ever been that sick in my life.
Like what? What are "freeps" supposed to have done to Andy?
Well, 'cept in the world of moonbats, misrepresentation of facts has no bearing on their reality. If Moore presents this particular healthcare situation as an example of ahealthcare "horror story", it would of course be a hypocritical joke (because Stephenson make a CHOICE not to avail himself of the healthcare he could get in Washington State and had strings pulled by the rich & powerful to get into prestigious Johns Hopkins instead).
I think actually it would make a lovely story in a documentary about how liberals expect OTHERS to live by socialism, while they themselves are just a little more special than the rest of us & thus deserve better care.
Moore's documentary ("Sicko") was supposed to be out last year. I am firmly convinced that the reason it was delayed was because Michael Moore was sidetracked by a different project. I'm nearly certain that Moore is the man behind Cindy Sheehan. He's her advisor, her ghostwriter, her funder. She is his creation.
What that scumbag Pitt did to his supposed friend over Pitt's reputation was the ultimate in sleazery. How Pitt can even show his face to talk about Andy after what he wrote and did is the height of hypocrisy!!!!
Pitt is the most self aggrandizing loser in dummieland. Do they even remember what he said and did to his supposed friend Andy? Hell, I felt sorry for the guy (Andy). Liberal or not, that was a horrible way to die and he was way too young to go and the coup de grace was Pitt stabbing him in the back, way to go William!!!!
Speaking of back stabbing---The Kucinich campaign had to DUMP Pitt as Kucinich's press secretary in 2004 because Pitt was backstabbing Kucinich by feeding inside info to the Kerry campaign in the hopes of getting a paying job with the latter.
Does anyone have a Duh account to burn to post this thread:
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=104x3672828
It shows Pitt in all his scumbaggery!
"Andy's story was a classic example of how difficult it is for uninsured cancer patients to access quality health care. Its a disease where a delay of a week or more in getting treatment can mean the difference between life or death, its tragic. "
Andy died because he wouldn't accept anything less than the best. It's my understanding that he had a high quality hospital where he lived that could have done his surgery much quicker than Johns Hopkins. Anyway, he didn't die of pancreatic cancer. He died of an infection.
Yes, probably on Monday. We all miss him.
By the way, the "official position" of Scamdy, at this moment, waiting for things to develop, is in that old legal term (I forget it, even though it's on the tip of the tongue)....."the thing speaks for itself."
I think the Bostonian Idiot is making hay out of weeds, but I have been wrong before. Stay tuned.....
You know exactly what's going to happen, to kill this story with Michael Moore, once one of his representatives chats with the distruntled one.
The disgruntled one (aka "benburch") is a notorious paranoiac, and one can see it now......
.....yapping on and on and on and on about how the whole Scamdy thing was financed by Karl Rove, the Republican National Committee, a former political ally and employer of the late one, George Bush, Richard Cheney, P-J Comix, and even the WCTU (Women's Christian Temperance Union), who were "out" to get the late one because he was "too dangerous" for the survival of the present administration.
The disgruntled one is going to go on and on and on and on and on about this, until the representative of Michael Moore hangs up the telephone.
Top 50! Insert your own joke about what PM means here.
Speaking of DUmmie benburch, what happened to his GRAND SCHEME of sending MILLIONS of DUmmies into Washington, D.C. and overthrow the government? That thread of his was featured in a recent DUFU edition.
Then JUST before surgery...which was delayed because he needed a test first/JH lost the checks/paypal money was withheld because of freepers (take your pick, it's all here)...the diagnosis was (miraculously) changed to an BACK to an encapsulated tumor...which was good news, of course. Well, to everyone but Wee Willy who had his brush with reality meltdown PJ mentioned above. In spite of this, Andy had his whipple, which was a remarkable success as he was in and out of the hospital quicker than you can say "he could've gotten free healthcare in Seattle".
Then tragedy of tragedies, he finally makes it home with Termite...who it seems was able to take out a home equity loan to remodel the bathroom, but NOT to pay for life-saving surgery of his significant other...and what do you know, he gets a post-op infection and dies (in Virginia Mason, where presumably the state paid for his care). Then again, maybe the surgery wasn't so successful because supposedly the post-op infection weakened his resistence and the cancer spread throughout his whole body. Not only that, but evidently (in spite of the fact that Andy himself said the drugs were "rockin") he died in extreme pain. Those of us who were involved in the expose were threatened by Pitt (how is it these people who have NO money and are suffering under the evil Bush regime can afford to have lawyers on retainer...I don't even HAVE someone I call "my lawyer")...we're still waiting...guess he didn't have the cajones to pull it off after all.
I wondered about that myself.
I'm starting to think that the disgruntled one and the Bostonian Idiot are one and the same person, under different DUmmie screen-names, because the consequences of their solemn pronouncements is always.....zilch.
An addendum. Of course, I REALLY do NOT think they are the same person; I was just being facetious.
There are some who might disagree, but I rather think the disgruntled one is a better, more expert, more talented, writer than the Bostonian Idiot.
The Bostonian Idiot is full of pomp and fluff, and nothing else. The disgruntled one, when he is not in his often-occurring violent paranoiac rages, writes good simple prose.....which takes more talent than writing bad prose.
But the deal is to read the stuff the disgruntled one writes when he is calm; once the paranoia strikes him, they're just words randomly scattered around.
IF they could even get to my car at my place of work, they would be hauled off to jail for criminal trespass, and not by the local boys, either. Even local and state cops can't touch me at my place of work, for ANYTHING (and I really miffed a local boy when he followed me back to work to question me about an expired sticker on my car, and I told him he had no jurisdiction here. When he threatened to write me a ticket, MY BOSS told him HE was trespassing and to leave...)
MM and his merry band of idiots would have to deal with the POSTAL INSPECTORS, and they don't play nice...
Look at me.... Look at me.... I talked to FatBoys people.... look at me
