"I was outraged," Moby told me. "Everyone knows that Margaret's comedy is very irreverent.

I guess its cool for the left to be irreverant of conservatives, but a crime if conservatives dont sugar coat their feelings about loopy lefties.

After Drudge's account was linked by the right-leaning FreeRepublic.com

"leaning?"

That's what I was thinking. ;)

Cho's website operator blamed Free Republic for ALL of the racist email and even linked an FR thread about Cho's rant. There was no racism in the FR thread but that did not stop antiConservative trolls from making suicide attacks on Free Republic.

Again FR is getting unfairly trashed in the press over this. I even posted to that thread (for the benefit of the visiting trolls) that FR does not tolerate such language (foul or racist). It is "possible" that FReepers did use such language in emails but there were many FReeper emails that were more civil that never got mentioned. Additionally DUsruptors like to pull the wool over people's eyes and pin blame on us.

A bunch of pro-Cho propaganda that does nothing to defuse the venomous hate in her foul mouthed rant.

They reason they are so hateful is that they are angry and hateful about any authority figure. They could relate to Clinton because he was just out of control as they are. Bush however reminds them of their parents, he is after all an adult, something they don't want to be.
Remember, they all know people who were smarter, more talented, even harder working then them who didn't make it show business. It was just dumb luck they became successful.

Yup, it's the classic lefty excuse...."Oh I was just being satirical! It was just a joke! Don't you have any sense of humor?!?!? Geez!" It's the way leftist wriggle out of taking responsibility for their comments. So, because they're just being funny-ha-ha, they feel like they deserve to be given a pass on what they say. Glad to see they haven't ditched that transparent strategy...it's just indicative of how weak their arguments really are.

Warrior Index

 

Evil Clown is very quick with a joke, but his jests always have a barb. He has little patience for in-depth discussions and will often disrupt exchanges between serious forum participants by introducing irrelevant topics, fatuous quips, and offhand comments. His greatest thrill is to taunt and humiliate weaker or more plodding Warriors with his snappy ripostes. When a strong Warrior finally corners him Evil Clown will attempt to escape by accusing his attacker of having no sense of humor.

So Free Republic is a "right leaning" website but there is no mention that MoveOn.Org is a socialist liberal Political Action Committee? Yeah, there is "fair" treatment in the press.

Free Republic makes no bones about the FACT that it is a Conservative Forum. MoveOn.org is not a "non-profit organization" (the type of entity commonly found on the .ORGs); they are a non-tax deductible partisan PAC (something visitors would learn reading the fine print of that website).

Drudge shot back: "Those E-mails are mild compared to what I receive on a daily basis. That is the nature of the Internet. Moby and his friends just have to 'butch up.'"

No kidding. You couldn't pay me enough to sort the daily inbox of a right of center news personality like Rush, Drudge, Hannity, or JimRob. It would be like opening a door to the flaming pits of leftist hell every day.

Moby really saw an increase in his bank account a couple of years ago when his songs started getting used for tv ads. It directly benefitted him and he also saw an increase in album sales as a result.

Perhaps a boycott of advertisers who use Moby's music would be in order.

"Go back to Asia you slanted eye whore."

I doubt that would have made it past the Admin Mods. Truck Driving Leftist Freakout, perhaps, but not "slanted eye whore." We can confront her stupidity directly without involving her race.

typical. The poor, poor defenseless Libs love to dish out hate and nastyness, but can't take when they experience it.

I imagine that Drudge does get alot of hate mail, but those don't count because they are from the people who are correct. /sarcasm off.

I love it, "butch up", lmbo!

I've only seen Cho on the comedy channel. I don't think she's all that funny. I keep remembering a WSJ article in the
1980s. The "market" for full-time, standup comedians was about 200 in the US at the time.
