We need to find some trolls so we can bring out the viking kitties too!

Some VK are already watching, patiently.

I can imagine the response.

Oh, yes, I am. You do not understand that if you want to dump FR, you may. I don’t care. Just go.

Actually, I’m not so sure Bronx.

I just about log out when another idiot drops in to comment without first reading what to comment about... The reading attention and comprehension level on this site is seriously lacking.

In the past, I have noticed this trend on this site. People read half of a column title and tear off into a tirade before taking a moment to figure out what they are talking about.

Quite frankly, I am technology challenged. But too many on this thread are simply mentally challenged... I have had all I can take for today. If this thread represents conservatives, no wonder the conservative movement is dead.

Sorry! But I’ve had enough....

Sorry, don’t even know the lingo Bronx... That’s what I mean, I don’t blog. I don’t think I should either, after today.

"Keep in mind that in the late nineties when we were smaller and little known, probably more people in DC staff positions read items here than do now."

Don't kid yourself, this place gets picked over with a fine tooth comb.

mnehrling may be a bit grumpy at times, but he is not a fool, and for you to try to turn the tide in your favor, you’d do well to use that word sparingly.

I did not compare FR moderators to DU. DU moderators would never silence a leftist massage, no matter where it came from... LOL

Good Lord. A declarative assertion that contradicts itself. You are a master.

Careful now, you are dealing with a master here. He’s coined two entries for the freeper accidental lexicon on a single thread - ‘scotched earth’ and now ‘leftist massage’ - maybe we should promote his columns to News.

...the freeper accidental lexicon

A volume of legendary lore that keeps on thrilling.

I don't doubt the picking over but there was a frantic bomb disposal unit flavor to the old days that seems missing now and my general point is made regardless of my less than perfect account of the circumstances: We can't expect to exceed them in viewer impressions, to use the media term.

This has been a complaint of mine for awhile.

I have thoughtfully and carefully researched things that I have put on my blog and cross-posted here, only to have it sent to the "Bloggers & Personal" ghetto where it languished unnoticed. At the same time, someone else has put a vanity thread complaining about something Shepard Smith said a few minutes ago, and the mods let it stay in "News/Activism," garnering thousands of hits and 200+ responses.

I have FReepmailed the Mods about it and gotten no responses. It's one of the reasons why after TEN years as a registered Freeper, I spend most of my online time on Patterico's Pontifications and Michelle Malkin.com. Even though I can't post, at least I know my comments will be read there (and I don't have to type out my own HTML tags).

“Leftist massage” has an “Oriental spa” kind of look to it.

‘leftist massage’ definitely belongs on breaking news.
