Freepers, get the word out loud and wide. The Vancouver Sun "journalist" Chris Parry that defamed Jim Robinson and FreeRepublic is none other than radical left blogger "Hollywoodoz" at the Daily Kos. In addition to writting for the Vancouver Sun, Chris is a frustrated and failed internet entrepreneur, having launched many websites and blogs, all of which have virtually no traffic, following, or success. Chris also writes movie reviews, though these are pretty lame.
Chris Parry actually advocated attacking "negros" and blaming the republicans for it. See this post at the Daily Kos by "hollywoodoz", who is in reality, as proven below Chris Parry of the Vancouver Sun. See it here: http://www.dailykos.com/story/2005/9/9/10324/92702 This spells BUSH, CHENEY, BROWN. Now if this is not grounds for losing your job at the Vancouver Sun, I don't know what is.
Bloody Useless Sack of Hatred

You’re not a human - you’re a little girl?
That speaks volumes, doesn’t it?
The original thread in question has identifiable freepers (some who are posting on this thread as well) who are 1) not newbies, 2) not KOS kiddies, and presumably 3) not Chris Barry.
These Freepers made stupid comments with racial overtones to them.
You can deflect that with "Chris Barry is not objective" all you'd like.
It doesn't change that some posters made some absolutely asinine posts on a "caption this" thread and gave ammo to the enemies of the website.
Now we're at 1700 threads of a do-nothing, know-nothing thread and all we've learned it that Chris Barry is an a**hat. And I didn't really even care about Chris Barry and didn't care to know he's an a**hat.
Ridiculous.
Bass boss, you summed it up pretty well.
Enough of this horse sh*t.

I’m Lostcheerio
From VA
My name is Lydia. I’m a homeschooling, minivan-driving, milk-pouring, child-wrangling, husband-pestering, dog-remonstrating mother of two. This blog will show you what homeschoolers are really like.
I’m the mother of two interesting redheads and the wife of an options-trading cyclist. I live in Virginia in a blue house. I write fiction, compose songs, drive my children around, ride my bike, and read books. I fix other people’s novels as a book doctor. I also knit and sew but I draw the line at baking. Our children are homeschooled.

The Tea Party Would Have Been Awesome! (With the Proper Permit)
By Lostcheerio on Wednesday, April 15, 2009 at 6:17 PM.
Here’s one sure sign this is not the revolution: Somewhere near Washington DC there’s a truck driving around full of tea bags.
Yes, the plan today was to dump 1,000,000 tea bags into the Potomac River as a protest of — uh — the government. Unfortunately, the proper permit for dumping a truckload of Lipton into the Potomac could not be obtained! WHAT? NOT OBTAIN THE PROPER PERMIT!? Well, FINE, then they were going to dump the 1,000,000 tea bags on the ground! ON THE GROUND! In the *park.* NO! THEY DID NOT HAVE A PERMIT FOR DUMPING TEA IN THE PARK EITHER!! Even after the protesters offered to dump the tea tags onto a tarp for easy clean-up, the authorities weren’t crazy about the idea. So the hundreds of protesters (HUNDREDS! HIDE YOUR CHILDREN!) packed up their tea bags and went home. Because nothing says “HANG ‘EM HIGH!” like a quiet obeisance to the local dumping ordinances.
So much for the event billed as the largest grassroots movement in history. Guess what teabaggers? Fox News got what they wanted out of you — a big fat ratings day. Show hosts coming at you from across the country! Live music! Parades! Tea! All on Fox! Of course, it was fair and balanced reporting, exactly the same coverage they gave to those silly anti-war protests which a few (hundred thousand) people attended in a couple (thousand) cities around the country (world). If you want a hearty chuckle, watch this montage of the slavering, drooling promotion from Fox News.

Little Blue School: Lydia Netzer’s Interview
Lydia lives with her husband and two children in Virginia and in some online circles, she’s known as lostcheerio, which I just love, but I’m not sure why. Maybe it’s because I’ve always related to the little cheerio that falls out of the box, bounces off the counter and rolls under the refrigerator.
In addition to homeschooling her two children, Lydia is also a book doctor which I guess means she cures sick books so I’m going to keep her in mind because I have a really sick book idea in my head.
She blogs at Little Blue School and you can see some marvelous photos of her kids in action.
In this interview, Lydia just completely smashes the homeschooling socialization myth. It’s now in tiny pieces under the refrigerator. I love her description of how homeschooling familes grow together...

Not everyone was caught by surprise. Lydia Netzer, a.k.a. “lostcheerio,” a photographer, blogger and married mother of two (and definitely one of the people Time was talking about in its “person of the year” issue, given the amount of content she creates on the Internet), went with her husband and children to watch the launch. You can read Lydia’s account, and view her photos, on her Xanga blog. [UPDATE: Actually, the fuller account is on her HamptonRoads.com blog, where she writes: “We and all the other nerdypants people freezing our bottoms off got to hear the roar, see the fireball, and watch it disappear. It was so cool. The exciting part took about a minute and a half, but it was worth it.”] But best of all is her YouTube video:

Hi there! :D
This may or may not surprise you, but the *actual* account of the launch was on the homeschooling blog that I write for the local paper… and it’s here: http://home.hamptonroads.com/blog/index.cfm?uid=65 Yes, another blog. I agree it’s kind of ghastly the amount of content I create for the internet. Hehehe. Maybe someday they’ll create a “birth control” for blogs, eh?
It’s nice to meet you. If my redheaded boychild becomes a stargazing nerd, I’ll burst with pride. And the rocket launch was one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen. I didn’t expect to be so interested in something I did just for the kids. But it was awesome!
ROTFLMfingAO!!!!!
Now that I am GOING to rip off! LOL AWESOME!

Since I didn’t read the thread and it’s pulled, I can’t know that for sure. I would like some names to go with those quotes.
Wonder if he did yet?
:)
It could have been doctored, but the names of the posters with the most offensive posts are all real freeper names and are all still around. Some are newer, but none of them seem to be plants from my cursory review. And the most offensive posts come all from one person who is participating quite heavily in this very thread.
Thank you. I will check it out.

Barack Obama and the Fear of Socialism
By Staff on October 27th, 2008
by glamatron / The DailyKos / Oct 26, 2008
My open letter to everyone who is bustling around the internet telling everyone who will listen that Obama is a socialist! A socialist! And then standing back, waiting with gaping mouth, for people to rush out and change their votes.
If you enjoy having weekends off, thank a socialist.
If you appreciate the eight-hour work day, thank a socialist.
If you approve of minimum wage, thank a socialist.
If you like living in a country where it’s illegal to sell your child to a sweatshop for a dollar a week, you can be thankful that socialists, yes those are anti-capitalist, anti-free-market socialists, worked hard in the face of big business and government opposition to make that happen.
Do you like the fact that you don’t have to step over sick homeless people on the way to your car? Do you feel thankful that hordes of starving orphans aren’t begging you to carry your bag at the airport? Do you approve of the fact that elderly people don’t have to die in the street if they run out of money?Do you want to take a little trip to 19th century New York City and see what life was like before welfare, before labor laws, before publicly funded garbage disposal and street cleaning, before the government could tell you how to treat your children, before the government could tell you how to operate your factory safely, before the government could tell you how to wire and plumb your apartment building, before socialism?
I keep hearing, “I enjoy living in a capitalist country and I want to keep it that way! Don’t you take my capitalism away from me!” Sister, you don’t live in a capitalist country. Sorry. That has already been taken away from you. Along with children working in mines, tenements made out of cardboard, and unregulated air pollution. Do you miss all that? Is it just killing you that the terrible socialists with their wealth redistribution gave Medicaid to babies in poverty? After all, they didn’t earn it. Their mothers couldn’t afford it. In your sparkling, elegant capitalist society, they wouldn’t have it. You want to be in charge of spending your own money, not giving it to the government to redistribute to the poor! Do you wish we could go back to a time when generous churches and noble private citizens were responsible for picking up the tab for those babies? Because you know what? They didn’t. Read about it. It was ugly.
Do you drive on public roads? Are you glad that every child in the country has an opportunity to go to school? Do you like the fact that meat packers have to uphold certain standards in their factories to sell you a steak? You like paid vacation days? These are socialist principles, people. The USDA. The EPA. Where you see government regulating business for the benefit of the people, that’s socialism. Where you see safety nets for poor people, old people, children, and sick people, that’s socialism. You really want to get rid of all that?
The big businesses of this country did not suddenly one day wake up and say, “Hey, let’s give those workers two days off a week. They’ve earned it!” They did not just announce, “You know, it’s Tuesday, let’s set a minimum wage!” They didn’t establish a 9 to 5 work day just because 9 and 5 are good numbers for them. It goes against profit and the free market to be kind, safe, and fair, and yet those are the principles that I’m teaching my children to live by. Aren’t you? Are you not teaching them to put profit first and step on whoever they have to step on to get there? Then guess what: you’re not teaching them to be little capitalists. Sorry! But you’re not.
I don’t like to talk about religion on this blog, because for me religion is very private. But I will ask you this: What did Jesus say to Nicodemus? Did he say, “Gather up all your awesome money and all your possessions, put them in your SUV and follow me?” No, he told Nicodemus to give all his money away, then follow. Did Jesus say that heaven would be populated by fabulous capitalists who had grabbed their piece of the pie and hung on for dear life? No, he said it would be hard for a rich man to enter the kingdom of heaven. We’re deifying Joe the Plumber, who wants to hang on to his wealth, who wants to get ahead, who wants to grab his piece of the dream. Am I reading the same Bible you are? The first shall be last, and the last shall be first. What does that mean for Joe?
The latest news to go shrieking around the internet is that Barack Obama was a member of the New Party in Chicago. Before you get all lathered up about it, read about the party on Wikipedia and on their own web site. Did the New Party espouse a whole lot of socialist principles, like affordable housing and a living wage? Yes. But you know what? So do I. I don’t consider myself a socialist, but I sure wouldn’t want to consider myself a capitalist either.
If you want to make your mind up about Barack Obama, read his policies, study his plan, and make your decision based on what he has said he values and what he has said he will do. Getting scared about the word “socialist” is irrational. Before you run screaming into the night, look around you. Socialism has done a lot of good in your world. Are you afraid that Obama the socialist is going to make your working day shorter? Are you afraid he’s going to make your food safer, give you more city parks, make your air cleaner, make your workplace safer, give more people voting rights, establish more vacation days, or something awful like that? Are you afraid he’s going to keep us out of foreign wars, stop writing huge checks to big businesses, and improve our schools?Wow, yeah, that’s terrifying.
I can’t get excited about this socialism scare. For me, those are all good things.
Be kind. Be fair. Help people. Protect the weak.
Which of these excellent principles is capitalist again?
This is X-posted at my blog, where fellow homeschoolers are giving me mild hell about supporting Obama.
