Our favorite sub-freeper site has no mention of Rudy's "troubles."
Isn't that strange? NOT.

The usual GOP way of handling bad news and scandal...pretend it doesn't exist. Not so much as a mention of the Judith Regan/Rudy Giuliani/Bernie Kerik MOB-SILENCE-FOX story over on The Site That Shall Not Be Mentioned. But they're sure concerned about my silly little bumper stickers.

At least they have their priorities in order. They know their 33 members don't watch anything but Fox News, and Fox News sure isn't about to report the story about it's own criminality. Priceless!

2. Yeah, there is actually one that makes FR look sane
But Skinner deletes posts mentioning it by name (unless you're really hammering them with some slimy shit). Ironically, it's a much better site than FR, is actually navigable and readable...until you start reading it. Then you just get sick to your stomach after you come down from the shock of discovering that there are actually people out there who make FR posters look intelligent and informed.

Hint... Rhymes with "DU."

6. Freeperland All But Hates Rudy
It's been fun to watch who the "flavor of the month" has been...or should I say the "flame of the month"...be it McCain for immigration or Mittens for wearing magic underware or Rudy for being Rudy. There's not many happy campers there. Ya think the Hillary hate here is bad, it's nothing compared to the Rudy hate there...and it'll get real interesting if he wins the nomination. Their dream ticket is Tancredo/Atilla The Hun.

18. I forgot that site existed, There's so many spin offs of FR now.
I miss the Clown Posse group, they were a hilarious thorn to the jimrobbers.

26. Here's a pix of one of their moderators...


In fact, I've heard the term "moderate" is too leftish for them; they prefer "Righterator"

Really...

4. Today I had a guy at work singing Guili's praises.
I mentioned Bernie Kerik's troubles and the probable fact that he'll throw his good friend to the wolves before being sent up river, so Guili's presidential run is really going to be still born...

And he denied knowing who Bernie Kerik was.

8. Nothing like a well-informed voter!
Denial is a powerful drug.

5. That's because they're only OCD concerned
Edited on Tue Nov-13-07 10:57 PM by supernova
with picking out the stuff about us they find "weird."

If they think we're weird, I'm not one iota interested in their definition of "sane." They occupy a parallel universe where there are only two types of people:

- those who desire to be patted on the head
- those who desire to do the patting.

No thanks.

9. Yes, but they claim to have "Breaking News" and "Politics" forums
Edited on Tue Nov-13-07 11:07 PM by Atman
Even if it isn't in the "DU WORSHIP" forum, doncha think a story that big would fit in one of the other categories?

:shrug:

Not that anyone ever is actually reading those forums. All the other forums are just a ruse to attempt to give themselves some legitimacy, but when you check the stats, the only forum anyone is viewing is "DU WORSHIP."

12. Ya got me there, Atman
I don't know what they would do if their minds had to function without first thinking "WWDUD"

What Would DU DO?

10. crazy wingnuts there
I noticed just the thing you mentioned.

Little posting about politics, current events, etc.

Mainly they just love to pull bits and pieces from DU posts, out of context, and make inane commentary about them.

But heck, if I was as fact-deprived as the Repig Fools, I would want to distract people from reality too.

13. Welcome to DU!
What is funnier, they never, ever try to refute any of the stuff we post here. They pull the stuff out of context, as you said, then they each take turns posting some oh-so-funny quip about "dummies," often with vile suggestions that we kill ourselves or worse...while claiming that we are hate-filled. It is truly an incredible place where no intelligent thought is ever posted unless they've cut n pasted it from us.

24. More C[ommie] Underground fists o' fury!
I call that website CommiesUnderground because they are in favor of massive government funded socialism, as long as it DOESN'T benefit them, and instead benefits their Corporate Idols.

They have posted some "replies" to my post there - and they are EXACTLY as described. They tell me to klll myself, or they want to do it. They take my comments out of context. They just insult and don't try to refute a thing, relying upon childish denial.

They are walking satires of themselves, and they don't even realize it! TOO FUNNY!!!

7. Of course not
They have no way to refute what is being said about Rudy, so they just ignore it.

15. BWHAHA!
The farking idiots think we're not allowed to say "Hillary sucks" over here! :rofl: It people didn't say "Hillary sucks," DU's traffic would be cut to a third! LOL! What a bunch of maroons.

Oh, and it's kind of funny, too, that they're claiming they haven't posted about Rudy's impending outing as a total criminal because THEY CAN'T STAND HIM! Hmmm...seems like the reason you WOULD post about him, wouldn't it? Face it, they love him. He's a closeted draq queen who would take your civil rights away faster than you can say "9-11," while ramping up for war in every country Bush hasn't already fucked up. And they secretly LOVE that about his. Lunatic intolerance is what "that place" is all about.

16. But these would be the exact people who WOULD trumpet his failings...
since he's clearly a commie-liberal, gay-loving, pro-abortion infiltrator to the Republican Party...

17. Are they all the way up to 33 members?
I'll have to re-think my nickname for them = "The 12 man circle-jerk."

I must admit, I DO sometimes stop by their little circle-jerk to find an interesting DU thread. They serve as kind of a DU TV Guide. Thanks for the bandwidth, suckers.
