Front Page Magazine Will Do Anything for Rove...
So in their hit piece on the progressive left blogs and the alternative media, Front Page Magazine lists almost everyone as a target, anyone including anonymous comments that readers leave when responding to articles... Take for example this fine piece of journalism called playing a hooker for the far reich:

"In typical leftist fashion, within hours the left-wing blogs proved Rove's point for him. Personal attacks started flying on the popular blogs. ThinkProgress.org, Shakespeare's Sister, The Democratic Daily.com and Raw Story.com. all felt obliged to prove the point themselves.

"F**k you Karl Rove," was how Raw Story.com began its studied response. "We are angry and we hate you and your boss as well as the rest of the f***ed up media and crony s*#t we all see all the time in addition to what has become of a once great country going down the tubes!!!!"

I would suggest that the writer of this sack of smear actually know the difference between someone "commenting" on an article in the comments section to a story and an actual story. But in typical far fringe right fashion, it is not little things like facts that they need in order to declare their enemies "bad, evil, people." Lies will do nicely.

1. That has always amazed me...

the republican penchant for accusing others of exactly what they themselves are most guilty themselves! Usually, they're almost infinitely more guilty of it, whatever it was.

Edit: spelling fix

4. This ties in to the lie Rove told about blogs promoting 'hate and anger'
Edited on Tue Jun-20-06 06:06 PM by Rex
nevermind the fact that the BFEEs main weapons are hate and anger!!!! The problem here is that the Repukes lack the 'conflict of interest' chromosome. So everything they say or do is a projection of the way they feel about themselves. When Rove accuses blogs of 'hate and anger', he is trying to stir up hate and anger at liberals! Same as Ann Coulter, she makes her money off hate and anger.

Frontpage should get off their knees, it is embarrassing to watch.
