Actually, the worst example of this sort of thing was “santorum.com”, which was evidently created by some gay activists who hated Rick Santorum. When you went there, you were treated to some content so disgustingly obscene I can’t repeat it here.

The most amusing part is, you don’t even understand what I am talking about do you?

Actually its far more amusing that you think anyone respects you enough to care.

Speaking for others now? What lovely meglomania you have. Can you channel the dead too? What does Ghandi this of me? How about Jefferson?

I wonder if the domain name www.Eiland-HallIsADoucebagLoserFag.com is taken?

“Beck didn’t sue for libel, he sued for infringement and had no case.”

Agree, there was probably a lot better way to confront this.

Beg your pardon. I think you have the wrong poster.

You’re forgiven, my friend. It was only a mistake - we all make them. That’s why they put erasers on pencils.

thank you

I wonder why Beck didn’t sue for libel?

This is a good decision—I would hate to set a precedent that unaccountable world bodies get to rule on things like this.

[sassy steel magnolia]

ugh. Don’t you just want to scrub down your computer sometimes after erringly opening a site that is beyond gross in description? Sometimes I think the internet is the doorway to he)).

germ-X everywhere, please!

I wonder why Beck didn’t sue for libel?

Bad precedent set in the Jerry Falwell vs. Hustler Magazine case.

I would like to consider the possibility that Beck went to the panel just to make it clear that he didn't approve of his name used in this manner, nit being so concerned if he won or lost. It beats the heck out of having a press conference stating that you didn't do the acts in question.

How and conservative could support Beck on this is beyond me. The cult of personality knows no political bounds.

We never had a problem bashing Bush on this site when he did things wrong--ove, and over, and over--yet Glenn is Perfect to some?

Why is appealing to "international law" suddenly ok with some Beck fans?

It's about freedom, not siding with your fave celebrity and making excuses for why you suddenly aren't backing the conservative position.

What's a pencil?

[AndyJackson]

You discover that there are a lot of folks around here who have little use for the constitution.

‘the site’s creator, Isaac Eiland-Hall’

So somebody is working on the
IsaacEilandHallrapedmurderedboy.com site right? Right?

[Darkwolf377]

It's puzzling, and similar to the "love" people have for politicians who have never met them and don't know them.

I'm a conservative because I want these people to leave me alone. Even if I agree with their principles, Beck, and any politician you can name, is in it for themselves. Nothing wrong with that per se--they're doing their job the way I do mine, to earn a paycheck. But don't for a second beleive that for all their cool looks or rhetoric, they're there for you. YOU are there for you. They are there for themselves, and when they do things that show that when the chips are down they'll run to any "international" group they can to cover their interests, I sure don't think that's a credit to their loyalty to conservatism.

If Olberman did this we'd be calling him a one-worlder, and rightly so. "Our" guy does it, though...
