Which means he'll probably be working for the New York Times by the end of this year.....

[dirtboy]

Let's see for starters, Bush stole the election, Bush lied soldiers died, Bush wore an earpiece in the Kerry debate, and the big Kos generated conspiracy theory: Sarah Palin is not Trig's mother.

Let alone all the liberal troothers.

[CSM]

Yep and we all know that fire can’t melt steel!

[Incorrigible]

Obviously someone that never ready the DUmmie FUnnies!

You know, I’ve been in IT most of my adult life, and if I hear Web 1.0 or Web 2.0 one more time, I will have to summon all my will to keep my head from exploding.

It is a ridiculous label and buzzword. There is no good definition for it, and it is used to hawk nearly worthless websites, and to slam perfectly good web sites that perform as needed.

[NonValueAdded]

well, look at it from their perspective ... all those are “facts” :)

[Cheetahcat]

The leftist Loons make a cottage industry of Lies so conspiracy theories should be no problem with that sloping forehead lot.

[dirtboy]

Amen to that.

[Cheerio]

Don't forget the 911 truthers that live over there at KOS

[Bean Counter]

[Always Right]

Conservatives differ from liberals* in that their Web 1.0 sites like WND and FreeRepublic survived and kept their readers in the George W. Bush era

That comment does not even make sense. Bush and his politics are never mentioned and don't have a lot of support here, outside of the war on terror and tax cuts. If anything, FreeRepublic seems leaping into the Palin era.

Gibb’s replacement.........

[McGruff]

the radical on the far left is banned from sites like Daily Kos if he/she posts a conspiracy theory.

Let's see for starters, Bush stole the election, Bush lied soldiers died, Bush wore an earpiece in the Kerry debate, and the big Kos generated conspiracy theory: Sarah Palin is not Trig’s mother.

kristinn, you PWNED them in one sentence. That's not fair.

[TADSLOS]

Sure is going to be empty over there when they clean house. ****crickets****

[federal]

David Weigel may claim to be a reporter but he’s not, he is just more of the propaganda front for the progressives.

Just go to any right leaning website which has run birth certificate stories and search, He shows up on all of them with his “facts”. He is on someones payroll but its not for news stories.

[DBrow]

I think “KOS bans conspircy theories” is a conspiracy theory.

[Nathan Zachary]

Maybe David Weigel would like list some of these "conspiracy theories" that have been stomped around at FR over the last few years?

What an idiot.

[paulycy]

kristinn, you PWNED them in one sentence. That's not fair.

Never give them suckers an even break!

[headsonpikes]

“the radical on the far left is banned from sites like Daily Kos if he/she posts a conspiracy theory.”

Well, that’s because a ‘progressive’ analysis of the world yields hard facts about the essentially demonic nature of capitalism, christianity, and western civilization generally.

These are not conspiracy theories, this is science, you bourgeois dupes, science!

Sheesh! If only you had taken some sociology, philosophy, and political science courses at college, you would have known that! AN English course, even!

This entire episode just proves that right-wingers are too stupid to grasp how the world really works.
