I missed a bunch when I was on a camp-out with the Home Detachment this weekend.

I'll just set myself up a Trollstand, and let then come to me!

I prefer the warmth and comfort of the nearest, oh-so-innocent looking apartment complex, personally...

[TBarnett34]

I figured the trolls were all down in the dumps because of the latest polls. Double digit lead for Bush on Labor Day is bad news for the dims.

But..but..some RAT on FNC proclaimed that Bush only got a one-point bounce among registered voters!

Good idea. Set up the M2 and fire away.....

That is just the media trying to help F'ing kerry. The one poll I saw had Bush up by 7 among likely voters. Registered and likely voters are used too often as a lie by the media. Many registered voters never vote. Just more media spin in my books.

Thannnkss.....now I'm having flashbacks of my dealings with "technical support" the last few days. Throw in a few "very sorry for your problem"s and.....

Dadgummit, forgot my /sarcasm tags again! ;)

Dadgummit, forgot my /sarcasm tags again! ;)

No need for the < /sarcasm> tag. I knew exactly what you were talking about. That same poll was used by the Austin Pravda to show how little the convention helped Bush. They are so pro kerry no one even believes them anymore, other than the libs.

Summon Kabuto!

Where's Agent 47?

Ninjas, we need Ninjas!

The BigMap shall center view and talk blue.

Intresting fiction why do you post this from a obscure italian paper?

And we know now that there were issues with the info on the WMD in Iraq and that we got bad intel all they way around. So what is your point in posting this?

Babble Fish translator software strikes again!

[Lockbar]

This guy should work writing instruction sheets for Japanese airplane model kits: "AFIX GLUE LITTLE HERE".

[Marco Aurelio]

The translation is terrible, but the articles are not anti-Bush. The point is that a French spy agency knowingly passed false information through an Italian middle man (not associated with the Italian government) in order to make Bush/Blair/Berlusconi look bad when it was later revealed to be false. The French hoped that this would lead to impeachment of Bush (note that the author of the article is not calling for impeachment, though the bad translation may make it seem that way).

I was not familiar with Libero, the Italian paper that the article comes from, but I see from it's website that the editor is Vittorio Feltri, a Berlusconi supporter and one of the few American-style conservatives in the Italian media.

One of the lead editorials in today's edition asks: "Why do so many leftists and catholics have such tender understanding for Islamic terrorism, almost to the point of sympathizing with it, or at least justifying it?..."

Knowing Feltri, I would hazard a guess that Libero is not an Italian rag, but rather, one of the most reliably pro-American dailies in Europe. Another pro-American Italian paper is Il Foglio edited by Giuliano Ferrara.

Here is my troll hunting rig!

[cyborg]

Wow you must have a big garage! hehe

[Conspiracy Guy]

I park it in my neighbor's front yard. He doesn't mind, much.

[Old Sarge]

I see from it's website that the editor is Vittorio Feltri, a Berlusconi supporter and one of the few American-style conservatives in the Italian media.

Is McCain a conservative? Is Buchannan a conservative? Are FReepers who bash GWB on their single-issue advocacies conservatives?

I can take articles out of Frontpagemag.com, and twist them to bash the President - "See, See, even conservatives hate Bush, you stupid Pubbies!!!" Leftists and Catholics in the same breath, as Muslim sympathizers? Quite a reach.

Even if we assume that Libero is a conservative outlet, all I see here is a Euroweenie who come sover to this side of the tracks, to cherry-pick articles.

Think we need to hunt trolls today? There were quite a few this weekend. I had several troll pings and never got to log on from home. Bummer.

Yes we do need to hunt them today. Can't let think we are getting soft. Fire away.
