How nutty is the Daily Kos blog? Nutty enough to make an outraged defense of North Korea? Yes. On Wednesday afternoon, Niccolo Caldararo – an adjunct professor of anthropology at San Francisco State University – complained “The Western media wallows in the exotic and North Korea has been the clown of the 20th century, brought forward for comic relief now and then or pasted up as a ‘paper tiger,’ to scare voters before elections or as a distraction for other important news.” (Snip) While North Korea may behave in a strange fashion at times, its political history is no less

If conservatives believe that reducing the burden of government creates economic growth, lefties at the Daily Kos have to believe the opposite: cutting government is an economic disaster. Take the Thursday blog post by Vyan titled "Cutting our way toward 3rd World status." The target is the Heritage Foundation, which apparently wants America to be a "third world nation with no middle class," like Somalia, because of the "(Koch Funded) Heritage Idea that the U.S. should change it's constitution to require it to only spend a maximum of 18% of it's GDP and require a Super-Majority Vote to increase

One of the favorite writing styles of the DUmmies and the KOmmies is the use of parallel construction. By this I mean that they style their sentences to begin the same way and then they vary the second part. The DUmmies and the KOmmies think this is good writing. The DUmmies and the KOmmies think this is effective writing. The DUmmies and the KOmmies think this is writing with style and great earnestness. The DUmmies and the KOmmies do this parallel-construction bit over and over and over again, ad nauseam, ad infinitum. The DUmmies and the KOmmies do parallel...

I wonder what this Bay Area nutjob THOUGHT was going to happen when he fought to put Democrats in Charge??? I want my f*#%ing life back I want to not be invisible anymore. I want to get up and shower and have somewhere to go. I want to punch the people who talk about the recession being over. I want to not have to choose between toilet paper or dog food. I want to take back all the money I spent on student loans for an education that does me no good now. I want to stop mending the waistband...

Fatter than a pile of bullsh*t . . . More powerful than a loco moonbat . . . Able to heap all bad things in a single Bush . . . Look! Up on the screen! It's a blog! It's a prog! No, it's . . . GRAY RANTER! Yes, GRAY RANTER, strange visitor to the Daily KOs, who comes to KOmmieland with powers of insanity far beyond those of moron man, and who, disguised as Alan "Dick" Grayson, ill-mannered one-term representative from Outlandish, Florida, fights a never-ending battle for speaking TRUTH to POWER in an EMBARRASSING WAY! That's...

So the KOmmies of Daily Kos just held their annual NUtroots Nation convention this past weekend. This one was held in Minneapolis. Just think: Five years ago, NUtroots Nation was held in Las Vegas, where potential presidential candidates hosted fancy soirées for the KOmmies, complete with chocolate fountains and impressive ice sculptures. Now this year, the KOmmies are in Minneapolis, they're stuck with Obama, and no one is lining up to buy their votes. How the mighty have fallen! From chocolate fountains to lutefisk. From ice sculptures to ice fishing. And worst of all, from Obamassiah to Bush Lite....

Freudenschade, baby!I saw this coming from the very moment when we first learned about the Weiner scandal a little over a week ago. Back then the DUmmies were puffing their chests in defense of the Weiner as you can HERE and HERE. Meanwhile the KOmmies were spinning elaborate conspiracy theories involving charts about how Weiner was framed by Brietbart as you can see HERE. Well, today Weiner left the DUmmies and KOmmies with egg on their faces while eating large portions of crow. Most painful to them was that he APOLOGIZED to Andrew Breitbart. That HAD to hurt! First...

May 17 2011- On BigGovernment.com, known serial liar and corporate hack Andrew Breitbart and friends have cooked up another Shirley Sherrod style attack on a Democrat, this time NY House Rep Anthony Weiner.

Daily Kos sticks up for Weiner by publishing identities of underage girlsMatthew Boyle - The Daily Caller – 1 hr 25 mins ago Daily Kos founder Markos Moulitsas allowed the publication of underage girls’ identities on his blog in an attempt to vilify Andrew Breitbart and exonerate New York Democratic Rep. Anthony Weiner. Tommy Christopher, an openly left-wing journalist at Mediaite, reported Friday morning that Moulitsas’s site published personally identifiable information about two young women who have become somewhat involved in the #Weinergate scandal. Christopher refers to the two 16-year-old girls as “Betty” and “Veronica” in order to protect their...

Now, do you want to take a look at the height of hypocrisy. The Daily Kos and the left-o-sphere has been either suggesting or crying out loud that there must have been some sort of funny business in the Wisconsin election that has returned state Justice David Prosser to the bench by over 7,000 votes. Many are calling for a recount to be paid for by the state. Now it appears that those same 'reasonable' people had called upon Prosser to not ask for a recount before all of the ballots were counted and as the margin of difference was...

A top union and a top liberal blog announced Tuesday that they'll team up to sponsor polling through the 2012 elections. Daily Kos and the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) said they will join forces to conduct issue and campaign polling in key states and races over the next two years. The joint poll continues an effort by Daily Kos, a premiere liberal blog founded in 2002 by Markos Moulitsas, a contributor to The Hill, to take its advocacy a step further, and provide raw political information to readers, especially on races and issues of importance to that online community....

I try to see what the dark side is doing, but I couldn't see anything there. What is going on?

You just have to love how the MSM is walking in lockstep with the Democrats on this "civility" issue. It seems when the Republican message starts to gather steam and the country begins tilting right, all of sudden....we're meanies. What these calls for civility are is the left telling Conservatives to sit down and shut up. And the MSM is doing their bidding. Case in point, Time Magazine conducting a forum about civility in politics....and who did they invite? Mr. Markos "I feel nothing over the death of mercenaries" Moulitsas: ..we now have a side that is gun-obsessed, whipping people...

"What? Me, guilty of the very hate speech I condemn? But, but, I am the Great and Powerful Kos!!" Last time, we documented the DUbble Standard of DUmmieland, where William Pitt the Hypocrite, in typical high DUdgeon, has denounced the rhetoric of the Right, but who himself has engaged in violent rhetoric against (at least) George W. Bush, George H. W. Bush, and Sarah Palin, and threatened actual physical violence against a homeless woman, DUmmie bobbolink. Today we travel next door to KOmmieland, where Head KOmmie Kos and KOmmie BoyBlue swell the ranks of the hypocrites on the Left. Of...

The facts are simple. Jared Loughner was a lunatic. *snip* Given the lack of connection between Palin’s map and the shooter’s actions, together with the presence of identical rhetoric from the left, the talk today is, of course, about how it’s all Sarah Palin’s fault. And the left is exploiting this shooting to the hilt — facts be damned

Markos Moulitsas, doing the “Right Wingers Are Responsible for This Violent Act!”Naturally, putting a bulls eye on someone isn’t actually violent rhetoric. Stuff like this is just invoked by soulless ghouls to make a cheap political point. If you want actual violent rhetoric, you’d have to to go . . . well, Kos himself: That said, I feel nothing over the death of merceneries. [sic] 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. Now that’s violent...

the wake of the attempted assassination of Rep. Gabrielle Giffords (D-Ariz.) and the shooting of more than 20 others in Tucson today, fellow Arizona Democrat Rep. Raul Grijalva denounced a political environment poisoned by "anger, hatred, and division." In a phone interview with Mother Jones, Grijalva called the assault "horrible and unbelievable and shocking….It's hard to explain and really difficult to comprehend." Grijalva—who was also the recent target of violent threats—went on to blame the polarized political climate for creating an atmosphere that fueled violence: We never entered [politics] believing that we were taking our lives in our hands...we're feeding...

Just finished watched Sheriff Dupnik on Fox News. This guy is serious trouble. Please inform yourselves, freepers, and please--if you're from Pima County, contribute your insights. The moment he started talking, he oozed self-righteousness and pomposity. He kept alluding to "vitriol"--a code word the Progs use to talk about talk radio and conservatives.

On page A3 of today’s Washington Post: Another liberal movement leader, Daily Kos blog founder Markos Moulitsas, said he “long ago” cut off contact with the White House. “It’s clear that they want to double down on their capitulation strategy,” he said in an e-mail. Those words are written in English, but I cannot seem to get them to make sense in that order. The staff of the leader of the free world, with the world’s most powerful bully pulpit, in service of a president whose persuasive and oratorical abilities are endlessly touted, find themselves needing the assistance of the...
