Just In Time For The Civil War

With the New Democrat Party's Marxists duking it out with the Bolsheviks, this is some mighty timely programming.

Airing a documentary about the cultural icon of the New Democrat Party definitely has its benefits. Disenfranchised Koslings may be inspired to formulate and execute a coup in Koslamistan: Storming the Gates, so to speak.

After all, with the little Kooky Kult Kommandante embracing the DNC policy of all the votes don't count, there's much to become inspired about. Especially if it's taken into consideration that it was they who helped make it possible for Kommandante Markos to line his pockets. Heh. A revolutionary keeping for himself the fruits of labor that was donated by volunteers. How incredibly . . . typical.

At the very least, they'll get a one-hour break from the epidemic of Seasonal Weather Derangement Syndrome™ that continues to run rampant throughout the reality-based community.

Dissent Is Healthy

Thursday, little Kommandante Markos, in another classic example of self-gratification, posted the results of an absolutely meaningless poll.

As noted in our earlier post, the Kooky Kult Kommandante wet his panties because Sen. Lieberman wouldn't waste his time commenting about the poll being furiously waved by the Grand Ayatollah of Koslamistan.

So, after twice singing Koslam über Alles and donning our brand new Comrade Che beret, we gleefully went to Koslamistan and cherry-picked some comments made about the little kommandante soothing his po' widdle wuffled feathers and Joe Lieberman's deliberate dissing of the New Face of the Democrat Party.


And the requisite shot because Lieberman is a Jooooooo.

Kosling Conspiracy Theory No.___

It should be an interesting weekend.

Modern political coverage is all about storylines, and once created, the media merely reinforces those storylines. And lo and behold, the vast majority of those storylines just so happen to be set by Republicans thanks to their massive media machine.

ROTFLMAO!!!

That's why Kerry -- a war hero -- can suddenly be "anti-troop" when that toady Boehner (who washed out of the navy in eight weeks because of a "bad back") can't possibly be brushing aside the deaths of 4,000 and the injuries of 30,000!

At least the little kommandante is consistent in the manner in which he shows his support of those who serve.

There Is No Truth; Only Koslam

Lamont would win rematch

The reference ColoDem makes to "subscribing" is an effort to feed the ego of little Kommandante Markos. He's put together a three-year re-education program for future members of the Kooky Kult of Koslam's Ministry of Propaganda. Apparently, the idea is to sucker his psychophants into financing it, rather than continue forking over some of his profits - profits generated by the volunteer efforts of the proletariat.

In a classic example of self-gratification, the little kommandante put some braggadocio on display.

Some people had questions about the subscription drive. Here's some answers:

Q: Should we be worried about the financial health of the site?

No. The site operates at very healthy profit margins. That's why I've been able to fund five fellows out of my own pocket, with real salaries, not the crap many in the progressive movement get. If the site faced a serious funding shortfall, "laying off" the fellows would be a first line of defense. But that's not even a concern at this point.

[...]

Q. How much do fellows get paid?

I respect the privacy of the fellows, so I won't share that information except to say that it's very competitive with the private sector, or way, way better than what is typical in the non-profit sector. I will also say that this year, I will spend over $300,000 of site revenues supporting the program. Without getting into the specific of site revenues, let me just say that this is the largest, by far, line item on my budget. And I am committed to maintaining at least that much next year.

$300,000/6=$50,000. How's that for respecting their privacy?

UPDATE from JWF: Shocka! Lieberman won't respond to the little guy.

Attack Of The Koslings

With the eyes of a kestrel, we've been watching the Kooky Kult of Koslam react in horror over how Osama bin-Dead Man Walking is pandering to Nutroot Nation.

Rest assured, extreme joy doesn't even begin to describe my reaction to his co-opting of al-Goracle's 'global warming' cash cow, along with the talking points of the Kommandante's Kooky Kiddyz.

So, the Koslings are going all out in an effort to salvage their claim to being the sole and rightful possessors of Stalinist groupthink, the True Guardians of the Faith. However, instead of attacking the bearded guy in the white dress for his deliberate affront to Koslam, they choose to sling their wet panties at someone who merely restated the obvious.

WSJ's James Taranto Confuses Daily Kos With the Bush Administration

The Wife of Bath caught this tripe from James Taranto of the Wall Street Journal’s editorial page:

Back in the 1930's a young liberal journalist named Allan Cranston published a translation in English of Mein Kampf, Hitler's manifesto, because he wanted to alert people to the dangers of Nazism. These days when America's enemies speak, young liberal journalists cover their ears and go "la la la la la," they don't want to hear it.

In case anyone was wondering how I go "la la la la la, I don’t want to hear it," it’s by posting an 1,800 word piece on Daily Kos.

Just 1,800 words? Dahlin'? Just how in Hell can you hope to present a valid argument with a mere 1,800 words? No small wonder your message just rattles around within the neo-coM echo chamber. And you expect to be taken seriously?

Taranto went on: Why don't they want to hear it? Well, you look at this bin Laden tape which was transcribed and put up on the web, and he sounds like a blogger for the Daily Kos. He sounds like a typical angry left American.

Well, I don’t remember anyone at Daily Kos ever writing, as bin Laden said in his tape released the other day, that "[t]here are no taxes in Islam, but rather there is a limited Zakaat [alms] totaling only 2.5%." But maybe Taranto has a link to show us which piece at Daily Kos included that message.

Well, komrade, do you not understand what sounds like means? Nice example of why so many people support the idea of school vouchers.

He expresses his admiration for Noam Chomsky and Michael Scheuer, who are kind of crackpot leftist authors.

Well, it’s interesting that Taranto characterized Scheuer as a "crackpot leftist journalist," which I never realized is a euphemism for the guy who created and headed up the CIA’s bin Laden unit from 1996 through 1999. And apparently Taranto believes one would have to be a crackpot leftist to have wanted to kill bin Laden in 1998 (a plan the 9-11 Commission discovered was overruled by CIA Director George Tenet, whom Bush awarded the Medal of Freedom).

Whine, whine, whine.

So, I think it makes these liberal journalists very uncomfortable, that he sounds so much like them...He’s trying to divide America by turning left against right, but in fact, all this does is embarrass the left, the people he sees as his allies."

And because the truth hurts s-o-o-o bad, the whining goes on and on.
