Looks like the Washington Post somehow has NCPAC's Freepmail to MD4BUSH.

PING.

The Washington Post calls you "a reclusive California conservative", Jim.

We are not and have never been 'bloggers'.

The WaPo is populated entirely by half-wits who wouldn't know a blog from a forum if they both introduced themselves and then bit them on their pompous asses.

"The Oct. 18 conversation began with [newbie] MD4BUSH complimenting Steffen..."

A 1 week old newbie used professional flattery to break NCPAC's back.

MD4BUSH is still here, and has posted as recently as last Tuesday.

MD4BUSH -- you're mentioned in today's Washington Post.

"We are not and have never been 'bloggers'."

Rather beside the point.

A Rather by any other name . . .

I wonder how many other Freepers are agents for the Dark Side?

Considering some of the things I've seen posted, I can guarantee there are quite a few.

Lesson. Unless you know the person stroking you, wear protection.

It looks to be an overall talking point in the MSM to push the blogs and political sites on both sides to the fringes. Freerepublic is the poster child for this round.

So what if we are KOOKs (Keepers of Odd Knowledge) why should it bother the the lames stream press.

We are fulfilling the roles of the newspapers and pamphleteers of old.

Copies of those chat room e-mails were later provided to The Washington Post.

If these were private "e-mails" (e.g. FR private mail messages) that were intercepted, there is a federal law called the "Electronic Communications Privacy Act" that may be relevant in this case.

If they were public messages on the web site, they weren't "e-mails" as the Washington Post calls them.

The Free Republic Web site, which group spokesman Kristinn Taylor said has 170,000 registered accounts, is unadorned with advertising and is regularly updated with news items taken from mainstream publications and other sources.

170,000 now, zowee!!!

Sounds like this is the compost delivering a warning, that they can find comments buried on a website.

Well, here is a way to help in the battle with the MSM:

Nah. I'm not really active as a volunteer or anything But I read some of your comments about Keyes you said you work on a lot of campaigns and in MD doing special ops, reminded me of Rove. I agreed with the stuff you said about Keyes and Mike Steele. Shame that one nutcase doesn't get it. Anyway, just like bloggin away. We gotta be real about 2006 gonna be tough. Might need to play dirty. Most recent campaign activity: Me and my buddies went to the dem debate party at a bar in baltimore heckling Kerry, O'Malley and all the other dems kept giving us dirty looks, we just kept heckling like we were at an O's game.

Excellent choice of words. They bear (bare?) repeating.
