Dean's World

Defending the liberal tradition in history, science, and philosophy.

Howling Moonbattery

Blogs for Bush has some amusing examples. I especially loved the line about the meat hooks.

The only thing I'd note is that there are righty blogs where you'll get that kind of spittle-flying lunacy, so don't get too cocky. Just try starting a thread on Free Republic entitled "President Hillary."

Heh.

In any case, did someone at Air America actually propose a physical assault? If so I'd think legal action needs to be taken...

Dean,

True, we do have moonbattery all about us these days...but what strikes me is that the attempt here is to scare me into silence...me, just a little blogger speaking his mind.

What is tremendously amusing, however, is how none of the left moonbats who have commented - either on B4B or at Kos - have read what I initially wrote...they accuse me of wanting to start a civil war, when all I was doing was asking the left if they wanted a civil war...

DAMN IT!

[BONK!BONK!BONK!BONK!] <--Dean's head hitting wall.

Link fixed.

Will someone please hire a competent blogger to run this place? That's like three days in a row I've done something like this.

Now, now, now. Don't blog angry.

These guys and gals are awful tough behind a keyboard. I wonder how tough they actually are? Not that I really want to find out, but really...

I've heard of talking with your beer muscles; is there such a thing as talking with your blog muscles?

JRogge:
I wouldn't say blog muscles, but a blog shield, where you have your computer, the entire internet, and anonymity. This allows some people to think they can say anything they want without consequence. Too bad they can't speak so openly in real life. Too bad they pound at phantoms behind a keyboard to make themselves feel better because they can't do that to someone in real life. It's sad really. So... you scared Dean? :D

It's amazing how brave one can be hiding behind a monitor screen. :-)

Dean,

If you follow the links at BlogsForBush, you'll eventually find this transcript
[Air America host Mike]MALLOY: ...but when they do make these sweeping uh... umm... statements about Democrats better watch out, I think they should be responded to, the way Hunter responded to Peggy Noonan's little boy here... uh just beat the crap out of them. If you can do it with the pen, fine. If you need to do it with the sword, that's ok, too... uhhh... you know it's said that the pen is mightier than the sword. alright, alright, that's fine.
So, apparently, Mikey thinks Noonan should be "responded to" via the pen, and "with the sword" if necessary.

So is that advocating assault, or the typical incoherent ramblings of a completely untalented DJ?

I report, you decide. :)

Casey: The answer is yes.

And they should be darned careful. They might get what they wish for. Not all revolutions end good for the revolutionary.
