In June 2003, after television cameras caught a cheering, thousand-strong mob in Fallujah dragging the charred, dismembered bodies of American contractors through the streets, Moulitsas linked to the reports and said of the contractors: “I feel nothing… Screw them.” The declaration, gleefully seized on by right-wing bloggers, provoked weeks of controversy. Democratic candidates came under pressure to pull their advertisements from the site, and even Moulitsas's traditional allies in the liberal blogosphere—including The Washington Monthly's Kevin Drum—criticized him. (When I asked Moulitsas recently how he felt about the episode, his mouth stretched into a smile: “Vindicated,” he said...)

What a cretin.  What an EVIL cretin.

All of Kos's confident predictions had been wrong. “It's a valid criticism. Looking back, I was too optimistic,” Moulitsas told me. “[At] the beginning, I didn't even know what a margin of error was.”

What a moron.  What an EVIL moron.

“All he really wants is not to be president, or governor, or have statues built for him,” one of his friends told me, “but maybe to help run the DCCC, to help Democrats win, and to have been right.”

Fat chance.  But we can only wish.

I heard that the word Kos in russian or some language means stupid, I could be wrong but it is fitting.

He's raw sewage.

"Let the people see what war is like. This isn’t an Xbox game. There are real repercussions to Bush’s folly.

That said, I feel nothing over the death of merceneries. They aren’t in Iraq because of orders, or because they are there trying to help the people make Iraq a better place. They are there to wage war for profit. Screw them."

Kos is the loudest. But he's still wrong.

“Everybody says I'm an asshole, and they're right, I am,” Moulitsas says.

Saves me the trouble.

Ever read his site? It's full of cretins and weirdos who espouse ideologies that they don't practice - but that's typical of the left wing...

Daily Kos is as moonbatty as DU, or even more, if that's possible.

The best way to respond to Kos/DU: ignore them. Why? They aren't worth anyone's time. They want shock as a factor and shock brings attention and attention brings hits. Hits bring in more ads and their primary income comes from ads.

An overlong article I can distill to five words: Kos is a pompous fraud.

They're worth OUR time -- at ELECTION time -- to GET OUT THE VOTE. It's hard to find a better motivator than outrageous nutcases like this. EVERYONE standing in line with me to vote last year was there WITH A VENGEANCE even though they couldn't be bothered 4 years before. Angering our base works. Find ways to use it.

"Unemployed, Moulitsas, started posting comments on a site called MyDD.com, the most insidery of the emerging liberal blogs."

What a loser.

Republicans, he believed, had a “noise machine,”—a coalition of coordinated advocacy and opinion media outlets that pressured the mainstream media into reporting, and repeating, GOP-friendly spin. “The simplest fact about American politics,” he told me, “is that Republicans have a noise machine and we don't.”

LOL! This despite multiple studies that show the leftward tilt of all the MSM outlets.

Hats off to you for bothering to read it. Usually if I want to catch up on the doings of Kos and the gang I pickup Dr Seuss.

Keep laughing, Kos Boy. That will simply more quickly use-up all the O2 in your Blue Psychotic Bubble...

The profile omits the fact that anyone who dares post an opposing opinion on the Daily psyKOSis is first trashed and then banned. I don't mean insulting posts, just one that is contrary to the Left's onging madness.

There really aren't words to fully describe the Kwazy Kostic other than the textbook definition of hell spawn produced by Red Diaper Doper Babies
