Attack Watch, a terrible George Orwellian idea to begin with, has gone from bad to horrendous. Just a few months ago, Democrats wailed that Republicans were completely responsible for a “climate of fear” that gets people killed. Of course, it wasn’t true then and it isn’t true now.
Regardless, Democrats called for “civility.” Since then, there have been literally thousands of violent things that liberals have spewed, from a Facebook group that calls for the murder of Sarah Palin to union heads calling for a “war.” Now there is Attack Watch, which continues the Left’s move towards violence and chaos.
The “incivility” of Attack Watch is clear. Not only does the website prominently feature the word “Attack,” but the site exclusively uses the same colors as the Nazi flag.
Even worse, however, is Attack Watch’s attempts to stop “smears.” First, they state the claim. For example, Governor Rick Perry’s claim that President Obama is “thumbing his nose at Israel.” Second, they try to state the “proof” to the contrary. So, for this example, the evidence Attack Watch gives that Obama has not changed policy is that… some people made “remarks” that he has been good to Israel. Not actions, but "remarks" from Obama and some foreigners.
Last, but not least, Attack Watch also features a picture of the “attacker” who made the claim. So, if you go to an article in which they attack Sarah Palin for saying ObamaCare is “corrupt,” you are greeted with this picture:
That’s right, a blood-red picture with the emboldened word “Attack” above it.

Is anyone taking the attackwatch crowd seriously? It’s the newest and biggest joke on the net.
but Hitler’s web design team told him it would make them look evil (see latest “Hitler” parody on the attack watch site)
gawd is she beautiful.
No but it's fun watching them spin around and around. lol
At this point I’m surprised that they aren’t putting crosshairs on the pictures.
I don’t think it’s funny. The left are being encouraged to to wild.
Maybe not. But is it wise to laugh it off?
The story:This week the Obama campaign launched a new front in the heightened information wars that come with presidential campaigns, with a starkly designed and somewhat controversial new website called Attack Watch. The site enables user-generated submissions of what Obama supporters deem to be unfair or untruthful media attacks on President Obama, his political campaign and his administration’s policy. Almost immediately after launching, right-of-center Internet outlets derided the effort, and a Washington Post article called it a “laughing stock.”Is there a form to enter the names, addresses, and phone numbers of individuals who make remarks that "supporters deem to be unfair or untruthful...attacks on President Obama, his political campaign and his administration’s policy?" First there was Obama's Army. Now there's Obama's Intelligence Agency.
...didn’t get finished. God only knows what they’ll do actually knowing they can do what...
This idiot in the whitey hut is despicable. He’s a joke and the people that follow him are even worse. Complete and utter idiocy. My cat has more intelligence...and it died 6 months ago.
Damn. She still looks good even when they mock her.
I find this “attack watch” site REVOLTING, actually, it deserves each and every “prick” it receives, from the largest to the smallest.
The comparison to Hitler and his regime is most certainly not unrealistic, much less “unfunny”, as some deluded individuals have claimed over the past few days (not here).
When all you can do is cry or laugh, I prefer laughter. ;)
Very troubling evil eye there.
Is that photoshopped or is that creepy eye really on the site?
It’s not funny in the least. This kind of behavior should scare the living hell out of good people everywhere.
LOL! Love it. That was a good one.
Oh nevermind ... satire and reality are hard to separate these days.
