Sean Anthony must meet the same fate as Mark Antony.

Grandpa Dave used my previous quote to discourage this campaign against this poster because of posting articles written by contributors (very likely paid) to a website he runs.
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/3556229/posts without offering attribution
He began:
Read Windflier’s reply re why this site is to be avoided and not clicked on!
Then he plagiarized the second paragraph

.”The topics and commentary provided in these postings (while I don’t normally go to a source provided) I welcome and find such complaints frivolous and dismissible”.

To which GPD responded to and is why he used my comments without acknowledging the source. Attacking me because he believes I “click” on that source which I don’t by the way.

The topic offered in that posting was about Sheriff Clarke in which I reminded the reader of how it was and of the circumstances and courage Clarke took to get on the liberal “S” list.

But those very serious revelations were completely lost. As a result comments on the subject became completely ignored and the following comments by supporters of that effort dominated that comment line.

Quite often I’ll find an article or subject which I think deserves attention and send it on to a talk show host as well as suggest FR’s do so in the comment section. Which should help get and broaden the contribution base.

I suggest stuff like this should be discouraged

Please start your own blog to bitch about blogs. This isn’t your own playground and it isn’t your rules.

If you don't like what I'm posting about the clickbot, ignore me, or hit the 'abuse' button.

FWIW, I have no problem with Canada Free Press. The articles there are first rate, and I have no issue with them making a buck for the service.

Pretty sure bots can’t post articles here. Then again some posters sure act like bots.

Wrong. All three are Robert Laurie stories run by both Hermain Cain and Canada Free Press.

Not wrong.

Yes, Robert Laurie is the author. However, in true blogpimp fashion CFP publishes it on their blog in a manner implying said author was one of their 'staff'. If this Sean Anthony dude merely wanted to keep us informed he would create an FR post that links to and gives credit to Herman Cain's website. He does not do so. He instead creates an FR post that directs to his blogsite and a copied version of the real page instead of the true source.

Then to avoid the legal issues he posts a source disclaimer. In small print. Way down at the bottom of the page. Where no one would ever look. Which might be legal but is certainly disingenuous.

Here's what that source disclaimer says in this instance: "Robert Laurie’s column is distributed by CainTV, which can be found at caintv.com." (Note that the correct URL is hermancain.com.) Go ahead. See how far down the page you have to hunt to find it.

Any twisting is being done by the blogpimp by inference and omission.

As a side thought, I note that you and this Sean Anthony dude signed up a week apart in 2004. You wouldn't happen to be alter-egos would you? Seeing as how you're on the defensive here and all..

Objectivity is the essence of intelligence unless you intentionally overlook things that discredit your scenario. Then it's feigned objectivity and non intelligent..

“Yes, Robert Laurie is the author. However, in true blogpimp fashion CFP publishes it on their blog in a manner implying said author was one of their ‘staff’.”

Absolutely a lie.

http://canadafreepress.com/About-us/

“He instead creates an FR post that directs to his blogsite and a copied version of the real page instead of the true source. “

Another lie, Robert Laurie is listed as the author on the FR post. Look.

“As a side thought, I note that you and this Sean Anthony dude signed up a week apart in 2004. You wouldn’t happen to be alter-egos would you? Seeing as how you’re on the defensive here and all.. “

Incredibly stupid. The twisting is being done by you. In love with your strawman just like Winflier, both feet firmly planted in mid air.

“Objectivity is the essence of intelligence unless you intentionally overlook things that discredit your scenario. Then it’s feigned objectivity and non intelligent..”

You are the one doing that. Just like those irrationally pushing the fake Trump Russia scenario, the joke is on you. I am not Sean_Anthony. I don’t know Sean_Anthony. But don’t let that get in the way of your hallucination of who I am. It’s fun to watch! LOL!

Can’t take your own advice can you? Can’t live by your own words. So you make it about me. Cute.

I'm not making it about you. You are.

You could have dropped this and waved me off with the palm of your hand, after the second or third exchange, but you're so emotionally wound up about it, you kept it going.

You probably never encountered me before, if you think I was going to let you badger me without returning fire. Er, homie don't play that.

Given your tirades over the last twelve hours, I'm more convinced than ever, that it's not a mere coincidence that you signed up precisely one week before Sean_Anthony did.

Give it up, man. What's your real connection to that clickbot?

Amidst your obfuscation here's what you didn't address.

1) The Robert Laurie authored article from hermancain.com was posted on CFP in a manner that implies that CFP was the original source. You did note how far down the page you had to go before you found out that it was sourced from Herman Cain's site didn't you?

2) The Sean Anthony dude posted the article as an FR post with a link to the CFP rather than to the originating page. Now if Judi McLeod or any of the CFP staff write an article then linking to CFP is legit. Linking, as this Anthony dude invariably does, to an article on CFP sourced from another website is at least dishonest and does create that impression that he (this Anthony dude) is worthy of the appellation of blogpimp. You seem offended by that fact. Or intentionally ignoring it.

3) The dishonesty is not in the attribution of authorship (which you managed to extract from my wording though I never stated or implied such) it is in the misattribution of source (which I did mention) for the apparent gain of bloghits. And we know that dishonesty is a quagmire.

4) I note that you quickly appropriate the manner and language of the left by characterizing points that run contrary to your narrative as lies (and then misinterpreting what was stated thus avoiding refutation of those points) and incredibly stupid. I do not recall returning that favor in kind. If that is the manner in which you wish to be addressed I am capable of doing so. I was just brought up better and chose not to stoop to the non-standards of the left.

5) Whether or not you and this Anthony dude are alter egos, acquaintances, distant relatives, or complete strangers the fact remains that you are here running interference for him while having suspiciously close sign up dates which at least reeks of strange coincidence and begs the question be raised - which it was. And you're being extremely defensive about it. Which is interesting in itself.

6) Any and all pretense you maintained of objectivity was completely invalidated by your last paragraph where you trotted into the field of Trump - Russia, a subject that was never a part of this entire thread and a comparison that has been made by no other. Such leaps of logical incongruity are more fitting of a denizen of the DUmp..

The one on the right is a “bottle blonde” and is wearing contacts.
