Comedy is not pretty, especially if it is wielded as a clumsy hatchet by the Left to do their dirty work for them. Such is the case with the suggestion on the Daily Kos that satire could be used as a weapon to "take Limbaugh down." This is the comedy weapon post on this topic by the ironically named Kossack, FreeSociety: Like it or not, Rush Limbaugh's elevation to icon status, by the right-wing-owned Corporate Radio Industry (which pre-dated the rise of Fox News) has been a serious problem for progressive politics, and also just basic accuracy in News Reporting....

Last week I enjoyed the honor of having my essay on "Bush and the Bush Haters" featured on both Democratic Underground and Daily Kos. Glancing over the comments (along with those in a similar vein on RealClearPolitics) I saw that with few exceptions, they were the standard run of viciousness, nastiness, and obscenity that we've grown used to from the left in recent years. But there was another quality too, one that took me a little while to identify. What struck me at last was this: the left are not acting like winners. People basking in a long-sought victory -- a...

Thought ya'll might get a kick out of this, as the reality of Democrat Party economic policy hits home for this kook. "So, I became another casualty of this devastating economic climate. I lost my job today. It was not totally unexpected. About a month ago, there was a big meeting at the company. We were told that at least 35 people would be laid off. Nobody’s job was safe. The announcement of layoffs would come, they said, in the middle of November. November came and passed without a word. Then today, around noon, I got a call to come...

The chasm between those who want President-elect Barack Obama to produce his birth certificate to verify his eligibility to hold the nation's highest office and those who simply support the Democrat is widening. "The Constitution means what we today decide it means," opined one participant on a new WND forum that offers readers an opportunity to express their opinion on the birth certificate dispute.

Here's one example from before the election via the Daily Kos: But when the church and its members invest millions of dollars in an attempt to write discrimination into my state's constitution and divorce my friend Brian against his will, there will be hell to pay.So what am I asking you to do? Some distributed research.There is a list of a bunch of Mormon donors to the Yes on Proposition 8 campaign (in case that one goes down, here's a mirror with slightly worse formatting. Here's what I'm asking for:This list contains information about those who are big donors to...

We warned you about Obama and his supporters, and now . . .More . . .

After Lieberman Vote, Kos Says He's 'Done With Reid' @ 5:41 pm by Walter Alarkon Markos Moulitsas, founder of Daily Kos, isn't happy about Senate Democrats' decision to keep Sen. Joe Lieberman (I-Conn.) as chairman of the Senate Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee. Moulitsas wrote that the Democrat senators' vote showed "disdain for the American electorate that voted in overwhelming numbers for change from the discredited Bush/McCain/Lieberman policies." He added that he is "done with [Harry] Reid as Senate leader." "[I]n a city known for tone-deafness, there clearly isn't a more tone-deaf group than the Senate Dems," Moulitsas wrote.

Here is video of Sen. Harry Reid and Sen. Joe Lieberman addressing the press today after the Senate Democratic Caucus met and decided to allow Lieberman to keep his chairmanship of the Senate Homeland Security and Government Affairs Committee. . . . . (Watch Video) Reaction from Far-Left Leader "Kos"

As reported here - http://gatewaypundit.blogspot.com/2008/10/at-daily-kos-hate-website-obama-wrote.html In light of revelations reported of a 2005 Kos post by Obama of purging/banishing moderate democrats from the party, we should all freep Drudge until he posts the story. Our freeps a few days ago helped lead Drudge to post the Obama redistribution Youtube video. Let us do it again. Let us attract moderate and conservative democrats to help defeat Obama.

I know you troll these forums and I know you're spineless, pseudo-intellectual rhetoric. At least twice a day, preferably after I've burned a Qu'ran, insulted a minority and memorized my Rovian curriculum for the day, I scroll through the KOS diaries and frontpage updates to determine exactly how vitriolic and ignorant you're feeling today Will it be bashing Palin for more unsubstantiated rumors that the MSM threw out 6 weeks ago? A swipe at McCain's age? How about my old favorite: clinging to your inane polls, each of which is over-weighting democrats 5-10 points despite the fact the last presidential...

Your humble correspondent had figured the polls would start to narrow in the final week of the campaign but this stunning new Gallup poll shows the lead in the Presidential race narrowing much more rapidly than he had assumed. The latest Gallup poll of traditional likely voters shows the race has narrowed down to 49 percent for Barack Obama and 47 percent for John McCain. Here is Gallup's explanation of this poll: Gallup's "traditional" likely voter model, which Gallup has employed for past elections, factors in prior voting behavior as well as current voting intention. This has generally shown a...

Presently, Obama 50 v. McCain 43.

Please tell me if you can, who BELIEVES the crap that's being posted over there at Daily Kos? WHO????

New on-line comic strip based upon the KOS kids in their true state. It's a take off on the short series of comics by Marvel. I think this strip has possibilities. I don't know if it will be updated as frequently as Day By Day by Chris Muir which is one of my favorite on line political comics. This new strip is worth take a look at by following the link above. I think the image of Markos is pretty accurate. Nice images of the KOS related sites/people: TPM, Democratic Underground and I think the forth is a woman who...

I know this is vain, but I feel so good that I just got zotted by DailyKos. My half-life was exactly one post, one response.

Oh, that is rich. That is precious. Hey, stop me if you heard this one before-- It's funny. It's funny because it's true. What, you don't get it? Well nothing's funny if you analyze it to death. I have a screencap, too, for when they inevitably yank it. Don't question their patriotism, though. And don't question the patriotism of Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, Keith Olbermann and other assorted Koz Kidz, either. Thanks to DP.

Ok.... I know the DUmmie Funnies is the usual outlet for this, but this example of LIBERAL DERANGEMENT SYNDROME is just too damn funny to let pass! This is an article on KOS titled: "It's not that Obama's not fighting back. IT'S THE FASCIST MEDIA!!!" You need to understand this. Obama is fighting back. Biden is fighting back. We're all fighting back. They go to hundreds of events. They make countless jabs at McCain, Palin and Bush. If you get the chance to watch their events, you will see Obama and Biden whoop McCain's ass all over the place. Except...

The liberal blogosphere — which usually erupts with ad hominem attacks on the messenger whenever it is subject to the mildest, even-handed criticisms — has been eerily silent since last week’s revelation that MyDD.com founder and DailyKos ally Jerome Armstrong is the subject of a Securities and Exchange Commission investigation for allegedly taking money to promote a stock on a prominent online bulletin board.

You’ve got to give liberals one thing: If they’re nothing else, they’re consistent about spewing garbage, thereby proving that those who make a religion of politics and gods of politicians will lie any lie, hiss any hypocrisy, sell out any mother, and Sister Souljah any principle if they believe doing so might earn them a scrap of political power. That thought comes to mind because no sooner had I finished writing that Governor Palin must prepare herself to bear “the worst slings and arrows of outrageous presidential politics” than, like everyone else, I found myself up to my nose in...
