I'm scheduled to be on MSNBC this afternoon to talk about the controversy over the pulled Free Republic thread about Malia Obama.

The segment should air live around 3:30 p.m. EDT barring any breaking news, etc.

David Shuster and Tamran Hall will be co-hosting the segment.

I'm heading out the door in a few minutes.

And, (just an fyi), Howlett's Tavern, in Chester Village Green, is to soon open and a Welsh/English pub is slated to open there in Sept.

Welsh/English? What, they're going to have mead on tap? Or just reenact a few of Llywelyn Fawr's battles? I'll admit to needing to check the spelling of his name, but I certainly know who he was.

It turns out that there is some very compelling evidence that he himself and members of the leftist DailyKos website were the ones who actually posted those messages.

The old Reichstag Fire gambit.

Godspeed and thanks.

[DJ MacWoW]

I know what you’re saying but I think there’s more to this than we know. And Krsitinn can handle himself very well.

[mnehring]

I hope you make a big point of why they think that anonymous posters on a web forum is somehow worthy of news while ignoring people being gunned down and hung in Iran who are fighting for freedom.

It really says a lot about the media’s priorities.

[Matchett-PI]

Will be watching and videotaping!

[hattend]

What Malia Obama thread was pulled?

I wish there was some way to take a dig at HuffPo or the DUmp without getting them hits.

[Recovering Ex-hippie]

Sometimes, the challenges we face and the opportunities we get are not what we think they are.

I know that you are on the air to clarify and defend Freep...but the BIG positive will be that we have an excellant, articulate spokesman bringing Freeperdom to millions of people who never knew that Freeper existed.
Just by your being on the show, you will draw soooo many more people to the site!!

[Freedom2specul8]

Yeah, he let’m have it, and couldn’t have said it better!!!

Here is what Mr. Parry posted on the Internet for all to see:

“If Laura Bush was on fire in front of me...I’ll admit, I would use a fire extinguisher. To crush her Femmebot-like head like a coconut, then I’d run around the block, giggling and yelling and firing off the extinguisher like a drunken fratboy at a South Beach Motel 6”

Here is where he admits to making that threatening statement directed at the First Lady:

FREEPER CALL TO ACTION #2 Regarding Racist Daily Kos Blogger Chris Parry

Haskai asked:

“In what world is saying you wanna bash in the head of the former first lady considered “silliness””

Agreed. It’s more stupidity. I’m man enough to put my hand up and say as much.

There’s been a lot of spurious stuff leveled at me in this little adventure, but that one caused me to sit up in my seat and say to myself, “I posted that?”

I don’t remember doing it, but I clearly did. I’m no Laura Bush fan but that was way out of line. Nobody deserves that sort of stuff tossed their way, even in anonymous internetville.

Here is the specific federal law he violated (See Letters A & D :

Great to have you in there for freepers!

“Go get ‘em girl!!! Prayers!”

Based on the pic at post #62...that is either an attractive man...

or one very Ugily girl! ;)(:

(BTW I don't know what the threads were about but I doubt they mentioned anything as horrible or perverted as what David Letterman said about the Palin’s 14-year-old daughter. That being said, kids should be off limits IMHO. I feel sorry for them enough that they are being raised by 0.)

[Boardwalk]

I wouldn’t doubt he is a pedophile. No one but the most vile slime on slime could have spread those stories about Palin’s kids and he was proud to do so as well.

[Tamar1973]

Go at them with both barrels. Point out all the ways that this hit pieces deviates from basic common courtesy and journalism ethics (what’s left of them anyway).

Parry never interviewed anyone, he didn’t even get the names of the main players on FR correct and he failed to divulge is extensive left wing blogosphere connection in the article.

[Cyropaedia]

Good luck. Don’t let Shuster monopolize the discussion.

[Mr. Silverback]

Give ‘em hell, FRiend!

[DJ MacWoW]

I wouldn't be a Mod for anything. JR's post said "We do have a “pending” file where we get a chance to review newbie posts before they go public. That gives us a chance to reject the mental cases from DU and DailyKOS who seem to get off by registering troll accounts on FR to post homosexual porn.

I remember a troll that kept posting this pic of an old homosexual guy, naked and being obscene. I opened that thread before they got it pulled and had to retrieve my jaw. The mods have to sift through that garbage daily.

Then you get creeps like Parry second and third guessing what you're doing. What a job!

[JerseyDvl]

Lets not forget that Ashley Biden was captured doing lines of blow on camera and nobody cared!

[Boardwalk]

Parry isn’t second guessing what FR is doing, Parry is posting crap like the clown he is and then writing stories about it like he didn’t start the crap in the first place.
