Idiots (ZOT!!! Stupid idjit troll.)

[andrewhenderson]

This site makes reasonable conservatives look like Nazis. You people have no logic... "Goyette is anti-war, anti-Bush!" Nice leap there.

Good morning, Randall!

Actuallym i am simply stalling fighting my way to the airport.... baiting trolls is more fun!

[Vigilantcitizen]

Why don't you just STFU!

[tiamat]

Thank you!

Okay, now tell us how you REALLY feel! LOL! I think I've found the perfect description for Michael Moore!

"Daen-- I wanted to know what a Goyette is. Anybody?"

Canadian women's hockey player? French politician? I'm guessing...

[Vigilantcitizen]

I don't know what your problem is, but I'll bet it's hard to pronounce.

I see you've set aside this special time to humiliate yourself in public.

I'll try being nicer if you'll try being smarter.

It sounds like English, but I can't understand a damn word you're saying.

I'm already visualizing the duct tape over your mouth.

If I throw a stick, will you leave?

petuniasevan has a web page set up that has lots of ZOT pictures on it. Maybe someone here can lead you to it since I am at work and dont have the link.

Good job!! THAT was fun to read.

Goyette, Charles, was the afternoon drive talk show host on prominent KFYI who was critical of the War in Iraq and then claimed in print he would be fired because of his views.

YAGH! What the hell is that thing?

A Goyette.

[Or maybe Courtney Love.]

[bad company]

I bet that stung a bit.

I hate it when I'm late for a ZOT. That makes me cranky.

More Dean decompression
The Gadflyer has an interview with Matthew Gross, a central figure on the innovative internet side of the Dean campaign (more about this here). He has several interesting insights, but this assessment of where the advantage in grassroots internet campaigning lies especially caught my eye:

They've learned from the Dean campaign and they're investing heavily in the Internet. My greatest fear is that while Democrats wring their hands about how much control to give over to the grassroots, the Right will simply pour money into the net and overtake us. Our advantage at the moment is strikingly fleeting.

Let's hope this is wrong. My understanding of the Dean campaign was that money didn't really motivate people's involvement through the internet, and that the kind of grassroots activities people were participating in online had more to do with the level of distributed control within the campaign, their policy of individual empowerment, and most importantly just the enthusiasm of individual volunteers. Money might buy advertisements (and that seems to be Kerry's approach), but it's not going to generate a movement like the Dean camapign did.

Not much related, but here's an article on what Dean's up to now. For some reason I find myself liking him more and more now that he lost... I hope he ends up with a powerful position in the administration and gets to strut his stuff.

Thank you - many more on my profile page.

WOW! Where did you get the TANK ZOT???

[Az. Mike]

Awesome, with a randy twist of Monty Python thrown in, for good measure. They should hire you at the GOP to respond to Theresa Kerry and her ilk! Bravo!!
