YOU were a REPUBLICAN?? Yeah, right. And I'm the King of Zimbabwe. Anyway, read Tim Noah's Slate piece from the year after Frank Rich's Wet-dream book "Blinded by the Right" came out. Pathological fibber, much? :lol: :roll:
1. yes - from 1995-2000 I was a GOPer
2. yeah - i read that piece back then (i read slate like crazy for a few years)... Tim Noah - mostly full of shit himself.

Yeah, Mr. "Mondale Republican," but what were you before '95? And why are you wasting so much gas defending this self-serving POS? Slate was run by Mike Kinsley -- a Donk of the first order. So you can't just blow it off.

before 95... i was a 13 year old boy...

as for slate - doesn't matter who "ran" it... for one, it was owned by microsoft after about 99 or 2000... and it still doesn't keep Noah's piece from sucking out loud.

Specifics? I think that you just might be sharing a condo with Mr. Brock. Or so the HuffingtonPost will report tomorrow... 8-)

... can't say that ever happened (but conk girls at the state convention were great for drunken hookups)

but I was at the convention when MB made a (staged) floor speech and stole the nomination for a state house seat from a 10 year incumbent... looking back - i really wish i could have stopped it - but we needed her delegates for my candidate.

Not accurate at all.

Brock's book in 2003 exposed to the world an alarming relationship - one that was known in operative circles (mostly told around the bar) but not much believed for it's sheer cynicism.

Most people had never heard of DCI, the GOP strategy firm behind a lot of this garbage until that book. Most people hadn't heard of Richard Mellon Scaife, Judge Silbeman, or even Roger Ailes. Brock exposed all of it (including the decidedly un-conservative lifestyle of Ann Coulter - which, while largely immaterial - was damn funny)

However - this tactic, is no different than what the right has been doing for fifteen years. IMO it represents something of a dangerous escalation... I know it's only a matter of time before every operative becomes a news story and is slandered by hatchet-job bloggers (****, it's already happened to me in MN) - it's part of why I'm trying very hard not to work campaigns any more... because once people that far down the chain become targets, it's only a matter of time and opportunity before someone, somewhere resorts to violence.
Back in '79 I boned a girl at a Dead concert at San Jose State that was a dead ringer for Ann Coulter except she was about 6'1". I don't mean looked like her, I mean dead ringer.
Got a setlist?
