Novak can't keep his mouth shut
MYOB'

Yeah...he's not a public figure...but Plame was enough to claim that she wasn't a NOC somehow.
Right. We ALL buy that one. Douchebag. Then again, it takes a douche to defend a douche.
He suffers grom Colonel Jessop's disease.
If challenged his ego won't let the little SOB get away with it. He has to fight back. He knows this and that's why he has to stay away from it all.

It's called trying to have your cake and eat it, too. He writes a column, shows up on tv shows, give speeches for ridiculous sums of money -- all because he is a public figure. But then when he has to pay the cost, all of a sudden, he wants to be a private citizen. Fuck him.
Pardon me, but the DOUCHEBAG is on the fucking televison all the time.
He is a fucking public figure.
Someone please smash his perfect teeth so this registers in that glob of festering shit that passes for his brain.
Screw Novak - he's cracking up under the strain of being a public traitor, and the closer he gets to the edge, the quicker his fall will be.
The sad thing is, he doesn't realize that this is just the payoff for a lifetime of shilling for the Repukes under the guise of 'media neutrality'.
And Bob - (.) - pucker up.
Novak: "You can't handle the truth! The truth is that conservatives rule the world!! Haven't you sensed that yet?!! Are your senses that dead in the head?!!!! We've ruled the world since 2000! We own the voting machines! We have the armies of loyal bookburners who will march to our tune and harass voters away from voting!! We have the donors who give us their money cause we've made them think god is on OUR side!! We rule the world you little shit! You can't challenge me! .........."
Such arrogance will simply not let someone get away with challenging him. He has to have the last word. I actually think him storming off was probably a wise and disciplined decision. He swallowed his pride, and left with his pride in ruins rather than expose the facts he knows would ruin the project, the 'Liberal Problem'.

Shocked at the hypocrisy of being a paid media whore yet claiming privacy, especially in issues arising from your work as a paid media whore? What's shocking about that?
The only thing that isn't shocking about this is the Novakula hasn't figured a way to sue all of us for caring about his treason.
Bullshit. Some schmuck from TV Guide said it best on Hardball last nite:
"When you are on television, you are a guest in the studio, and you are guest in the people's homes watching".
Novak is a public figure. Fuck his old wrinkled ass.
One minor correction:
Festering ooze that passes for brains, Gary. Shit gives it too much credibility, because it had some semblence of being useable at one time.
Novak is a public figure. He's just trying the "up is down, black is white,I'm not a public figure" routine that always worked in the past.
douchebaggery, thy name is novak
i realize the vile old fuck's in his 70s...so it might be unfair to visit upon him any major violence...that said, HOAP....

I'm starting to think that maybe Novak is certifiably insane.

So what if he is in his 70s. If he doesn't want to play with the big dogs let him get up on the porch and shut up.
Novak has always been a second or third stringer. Time to move on to the bigger fish.
NOVAK: But you don’t know — Ed, you don’t know anything about the case. And those people who say that don’t know anything about the case.
... and you are being glib. i know - i know all about the case. i know the history of the case. and the case never helped anyone.
And all those needlessly snotty digs at Margaret Carlson, whose only crime has ever been that her mind works.
I would dispute the part about her mind working--but that's another story.
On the other hand, there is something SOOOO refreshing about taking a deep breath and finally
kicking Novakula out of your head...
I've been meaning to mention this for awhile, actually on Josh Marshall's place where people have talkied about this, but I havn't figure out how to post there. Eschatoninans hang out there too, plus I am Ba'al and I belong here.
There has been speculation about the intended copy of Who's Who on the set where Novac had his hissy fit based on certain flatulant lies from one of his many pustulating orrifices.
One thing worth noting is that Who's Who is a glorified vanity press. I used to be in it myself (when I was younger and stupider I was in the Who's Who in Science version). They don't dig up their own biographical details -- they send you a letter that is very flattering about how Important you are and then send you a page to fill out in which you provide your own biographical details. They then put it into their format. Once you have agreed to it, they will not let up their efforts ever to try to get you to buy a copy of the damned thing-- and it isn't cheap. Perhaps people put it on their coffee tables or something. Also once you have agreed to be in one version (i.e. Who's Who in Science) than the offers to be in others start coming (Who's Who in the South, Who's Who in America, Who's Who in Ancient Canaan, Who's Who Among the Undead, etc. etc.). They are absolutely relentless.
Eventually one figures out or is told about their little scam and never responds again.
Given that, it is hard to imagine that entries on Joseph Wilson or Valerie Plame could have contained anything sensitive.
ROBERT NOVAK = RANK ROVEBOT
The legitimacy of Novak’s exemption from questioning had collapsed earlier in the week. Ed Henry knew it and was ready with that news. Novak was not ready to receive it. So he invented an out.
hey, that's what I said! but i'll take it one further - the head honchos at CNN were in on the plot. novakula just shot his wad a little too early (well, he is 70). he was supposed to wait until carville really goaded him, but the show was pretty well along and he worried that he wouldn't get a chance. that's why the censor button wasn't pressed - they weren't ready for him.

Yes, not only is he a Supreme Douchebag, but he is crazier than a shithouse rat. Now that that is settled, Good Morning, everyone!
When Novak was confirmed in the Catholic church after converting from Judaism Daniel Patrick Moynihan said "Well we have made Bob a Catholic, now can we make him a Christian." I think it is pretty clear that that part of the process has failed.
Thanks, watertiger, and thanks Soprano!
Hi, ThinlyVeiled.
Geesh, people, don't you get it?
I think this story, this Novak story walking off of Crossfire, I think it illustrates the huge disconnect between the mainstream press and the people who watch CNN. Because most people have been asking for 20 years, "What the hell is Bob Novak doing there, and why didn't he walk off sooner?" He's put up with all kinds of BS from other people on this program. He's been insulted; he's been laughed at -- not only on this show, but on the Capitol Gang. I mean, when is CNN going to apologize for the way it covers news these days? When is CNN going to apologize to its viewers for losing viewers? Oh, no! They have to go apologize for Novak uttering the BS term, then walking off. I don't think most people think Novak "cracked." I don't think most people think Novak snapped. I think most people think, "It's about time. Why put up with this anymore? Walk out of there. Who needs this kind of garbage?" Even though it is a show like Crossfire, what do you need to put up with it for? And yet I'm watching the coverage of this, and everybody is worried, "What happened to Novak? Why, he cracked! Why, he snapped. Why, Novak's lost his mind."
Why, no, he has not. He gained some sense yesterday.

Robert Novak and James Dobson are about tied for this week's Avenging Angel Conservative Villain of the Week.
There was a site, I can't remember it now, but the guy seemed very well established and had contacts in media who stated that there is growing evidence that Plame was outed as a matter of convenient timing with another growing problem with certain members of the administration. Plame was working on matters of nuclear weapons proliferation. She was said to have been isolating her resources towards companies that were about to orin the process of providing Iran with vital components needed in the production of nuclear weapons and that these companies had ties to members of this administration. More importantly is the accusation that this may have been a deliberate attempt by this administration to secretly 'help nudge' Iran along on it's way towards producing a nuke so that later on they can use it as proof of Iran's nuclear intentions and give them the justification to invade Iran.
Far fetched, but this would be a much larger revelation than just the mere outing of an undercover operative. This would expose the whole admin to frau, corruption, and abuse of power.

Meh. Whatever.
Not a public figure? Please god let it be so.
John Stewert's exaggerated look of satisfaction after viewing the video of Novak's "walk off" was the best commentary on the CNN episode.
On to pulling out of Iraq.
Novak has a terrible temper. I have a bootleg tape of CNN outakes from the late 80's that features an argument between Novak and his co-host Rowland Evans. Novak calls Evans an "asshole". He looked like he was ready to kill him.
STATE PROBES 'KID' LOAN TO AIR AMERIKKKA
August 6, 2005 -- State Attorney General Eliot Spitzer yesterday opened an investigation into the Bronx social-services agency that made $875,000 in bizarre loans to Air Amerikkka radio, The Post has learned.
"We are looking into it in consultation with the city's Department of Investigation," Spitzer spokesman Darren Dopp revealed.
The highly unusual loans to the left-wing radio network were made by the Gloria Wise Boys & Girls Club — which was visited by one of Spitzer's investigators yesterday, officials said.

"July 31, 2005/August 1, 2005 **** Plame leak damaged a major CIA investigation linking senior Bush administration officials to WMD proliferation."
"U.S. intelligence insiders have pointed out that the White House is using "Rovegate" and "Who in the White House said what to whom?" as a smoke screen to divert attention away from the actual counter-proliferation work Mrs. Wilson and her Brewster Jennings & Associates team were engaged in. The arrival of Timothy Flanigan as Patrick J. Fitzgerald's boss is likely related to the mountains of evidence Fitzgerald has now collected to indict senior White House officials, particularly, Lewis "Scooter" Libby, for criminal conspiracy in exposing a sensitive U.S. intelligence operation that was targeting some of their closest political and business associates."

Novak staged his little tantrum to avoid having to respond to Plame questions.
Clearly he is losing it and probably faces hanging for treason (yep, it's still on the books). It's likely Fitzgerald's dragnet may sweep within its ambit many administration folks and Novak actually may be some one he has in mind...after all, no one else blabbed.
The publication of this information itself may have been a crime, which puts Novakula very squarely in the shit.
As for whether he's a public figure? He's practically a household name, ergo, he IS. Accordingly, he is FAIR game...only he really IS fair game, unlike Mrs. Wilson.
Do you know what I find interesting about the Novak episode?
If you go here to read the CNN story about the incident, you will see that CNN has filed it in the entertainment section.

Yes, but I could see where decades of being Karl's boy bitch would give him that impression.

He's not a public figure? Then what's with the TV shows and the newspaper column but that he's putting himself out in the public eye? In fact, you could say that he created this controversy by publishing Valerie Plame's name, and basically inserted himself into this situation.
Under current case law, he's a public figure's public figure, and IMHO he can STFU about it. It's totally his fault that he put Ms. Plame's name out there for everyone. Not even Karl Rove is going to be an exemption for that.

Then he writes a column (oh, against his lawyers' advice, what a rebel!) defending himself.
Then he is shocked, shocked I tell you when Henry thinks it is fair game to ask him about it, gee, right after he's written this column.

Some Bombs Used in Iraq Are Made in Iran, U.S. Says
By ERIC SCHMITT
WASHINGTON, Aug. 5 - Many of the new, more sophisticated roadside bombs used to attack American and government forces in Iraq have been designed in Iran and shipped in from there, United States military and intelligence officials said Friday, raising the prospect of increased foreign help for Iraqi insurgents.
American commanders say the deadlier bombs could become more common as insurgent bomb makers learn the techniques to make the weapons themselves in Iraq.
But just as troubling is that the spread of the new weapons seems to suggest a new and unusual area of cooperation between Iranian Shiites and Iraqi Sunnis to drive American forces out - a possibility that the commanders said they could make little sense of given the increasing violence between the sects in Iraq.
Unlike the improvised explosive devices devised from Iraq's vast stockpiles of missiles, artillery shells and other arms, the new weapons are specially designed to destroy armored vehicles, military bomb experts say. The bombs feature shaped charges, which penetrate armor by focusing explosive power in a single direction and by firing a metal projectile embedded in the device into the target at high speed. The design is crude but effective if the vehicle's armor plating is struck at the correct angle, the experts said.
Since they first began appearing about two months ago, some of these devices have been seized, including one large shipment that was captured last week in northeast Iraq coming from Iran. But one senior military officer said "tens" of the devices had been smuggled in and used against allied forces, killing or wounding several Americans throughout Iraq in the past several weeks.
The promises to "Move to Canada is Bush wins" turned out to be empty blather:
In the days after President Bush won a second term, the number of U.S. citizens visiting Canada's main immigration Web site shot up sixfold, prompting speculation that unhappy Democrats would flock north.
But official statistics show the number of Americans actually applying to live permanently in Canada fell in the six months after the election.

Most people can't just pack up and move (especially to a another country) on a moment's notice. I would expect that if those people are serious that they will spend a considerable time carefully investigating what they would do in Canada and making sure that they would qualify for immigration status before they would actually apply.
I wonder why an arch conservatoid would adopt the name of one of the rising stars of Democratic party. Spitzer will handily win the governor's office, and then after cleaning up the santorum left by current office holder, probably move on to national office.

and some C4 used in Iraq was made in the US and was stolen in plain sight from munitions dumps during the "liberation" while our soldiers looked on, waiting for orders to stop it.
Before that I was pantless. Kinda like you, but in my own home and not my mom's.
Will the coffee I just sprayed on my laptop ruin it? I am laughing my ass off. Good one NTodd.
Ah, it's the weekend shift at the boiler room.

Dearest watertiger. Did you ever get the lowdown on that slap technique? Someone on the thread is absolutely full and really could use a draining.
Yeah you are really making a difference by blogging and bitching and moaning. Go fuck yourself.
Gerber's Stem Cells | 08.06.05 - 12:18 pm
sweet irony, thy name is troll.
Gerber probably just dropped his pacifier, and nobody will pick it up for him. (yawn)
You really don't get the whole speaking out thing, do you? And do you really think that what is said here equates to the sum total of what this community and its individuals are doing?
Ummmm, yeah. Most of you obviously don't go out or have friends. You being on here on a friday night, ha, proves that this is just an echo chamber for the socially awkward. I love poking you things with a stick.
This is what you do on a friday night?
No, this is what I do. What can I say? My wife was out of town. She's home now, and in a short while we're going to take the dog, hop in the car, and go enjoy the beautiful weather and the bucolic splendor of Vermont.
You really don't get the whole speaking out thing, do you?
Save your energy, NTodd. It truly isn't worth it.
'specially on yer birthday.
OK, for our psychology majors out there: What kind of psychopathology is responsible for making people come here and deliberately set out to pick juvenile verbal confrontations with the regulars here, despite the certainty that they will be thoroughly castigated and humiliated.
I mean, if I read one more troll who signs on with some idiotic childish insult, then whines because we won't engage in "dialog" with it, it'll be way too many.
Journalists' claims to be "not public figures" are particularly ludicrous since so many journalists also claim to "represent the public" or to be acting in the interest of the "public's right to know." They are especially likely to make the latter assertion when prying into the private life of someone they deem to be a public figure.

Projection, a trolls best friend.
Novak fellates more than a $10 hooker, and it's no good for him unless everyone's watching.

Excessive Cheetos consumption prevents that. No troll has ever been in good enough physical condition and acrobatic enough to perform that particular maneuver.
Now be honest. If any you guys could actually perform this feat, would any of you, troll or Atriot, be posting right now? 
Dearest watertiger. Did you ever get the lowdown on that slap technique?
No, but I'm heading over to the gym now, and will ask the kali instructor for the move.

The fact that my schedule is different from yours makes that 'obvious'? Keep making assumptions, dipshit. And remember, it speaks volumes that you are here on a lovely Saturday trying to poke fun at us.
Doc--not a psychology major, but I'll take narcissism for $50.

Well, for some of us who work hard all week and are goddamned tired on Friday nights, who might be happily mated and home with kids, or for any of a thousand other reasons, we probably prefer hanging out here to going out and desperately trying -- yet somehow always failing -- to get laid.
Novak knew he better leave or Ed Henry would have ended up with Who's Who up his ass.
i think josey and the pussycats may be on.
Really? Fuck this, I'm outta here!!
Save your energy, NTodd. It truly isn't worth it.

But hunting trolls is one of my favorites things! So is schnitzel with noodles. Really. Gonna get some at the Trapp Lodge in a bit. Yay!
Judging from the amount of open threads and other posts in the past 24hrs, I do believe, Atrios has meth-mouth!

not when it works to the (mis)administration's benefit.

Trolls are so FUCKING boring, nobody feed them ever, 'kay?
This morning one of my goats got her head stuck in a weird part of the barn (they explore everything, are totally inquisitive). Anyway I heard the two of em yelling for about an hour - but I was dozing and they're in the juvenile yelling phase - but when I got up and opened the door it was clearly distress yelling - anyway I freed Alice, now it's a couple hours later and they're lounging around their paddock enjoying the nice day. Gonna shut down the computer and join them with my Sue Grafton paperback (which they have halfway trashed in their repeated attempts to eat it.)
Anyway, later bats - and hi from Alice and Marlon

Yes, please.
I'll go grab another cup of coffee to go with it.
Since Bushboy is dyslexic and lazy, he probably never read the Greek tragedies of Sophocles, Aeschylus and Euripides.
If he had he would have learned to beware of Hubris, which is the trip-wire for any depraved egomaniac.
Since he wouldn't have understood the Tragedies even if he had read them, the fall of this phony should be coming anytime soon.
I wonder what Novak was reading in college???
NTodd--didn't you get a light sabre from the original?
Alas, just as with my pony-deprived trauma, I was also denied a lightsaber. My friend David S. had two, the gunky.
Hey, r@d@r, get back in here and finish blowing me or you're not getting your fifty cents.
Clearly the troll doesn't understand anatomy or human sexuality if he thinks somebody would 'blow' my wife. Haven't they shown you those film strips in health class yet?

Thanks for clearing that up.
I could never (speaking of trolls, trolling) figure out why 'trolling' off a moving boat was illegal.
as if it didn't give the fish enough of a fighting chance.
but you can buy friggin' radar for your boat that shows you if fish are congregating and that's legal!
Re; public figure argument
Richard Jewell lost one of his lawsuits because the judge determined that he was a public figure. How did he become a public figure? The judge said immediately after the bombing Jewell gave talked to TV reporters about what he witnessed. That in itself was enough to make him a public figure.
Yeah, Robert Novak is a public figure. A despicable one.

Mother leaves Ł25 for abandoned daughter and moves to Turkey
Martin Wainwright
Saturday August 6, 2005
The Guardian
A bewildered teenager is staying with friends after getting home from school to find Ł25 rolled up in a note saying that her mother and older sister had gone to start a new life in Turkey.
Police and social services are investigating how an apparent family tiff turned into something much more drastic, to the astonishment of a small Yorkshire village where everyone knows everyone else and most of their business.

Time Warner Cable finds refusing to give money to a Texas politician can have strange consequences.
Copyright 2005 Houston Chronicle
...Texas state Rep. Corbin Van Arsdale ...implies that Time Warner Cable's political action committee tried to bribe him by refusing to make a contribution.
After the Tomball Republican sent Time Warner's PAC a solicitation letter last month, executive Ron McMillan politely declined by noting that Van Arsdale had supported a telecommunications bill opposed by the cable industry and "our PAC committee cannot support you at this time."
In a reply to McMillan, the lawmaker seized on the phrase "at this time" as an inference that if he changed his vote, he might get a contribution later. As reported by the Chronicle's R.G. Ratcliffe, Van Arsdale wrote, "I don't want to attach incorrect intentions to this language, but the words struck me as Time Warner PAC hinging their campaign contributions on a particular vote on a particular bill." ... the legislator sent copies of his letter to the district attorneys in Austin and Houston.
..The idea that depriving a politician of his desired campaign contribution constitutes a bribe is certainly an original interpretation of the Texas election code. Much more suspect is Van Arsdale's soliciting money from a PAC with a prime interest in a bill before the Legislature.
Van Arsdale, a conservative who opposes frivolous lawsuits, seems to be blazing his own trail in the field of frivolous complaints. To wean him of the habit, more Texans at this time should just say no to his solicitations.

...the trolls never seem to want to talk about how it was a REPUBLICAN president who gave the order to obliterate all those civilians...
Of course, we'd never been in that position if FDR had listened to the Republicans and sided with the Nazis.
Gloating about the fact that a Democratic president had to make the decision to drop the bomb on Japan while your fellow Republicans are clamoring to nuke innocent civilians all across the Middle East right now is not only poor taste, it's mentally unbalanced.
okay, time to go make some coffee. needless to say...you'll know when it's me, you'll know when it's not me. ciao.
I guess Harry Truman is a war criminal.
Curtis LeMay pretty much admitted that had we lost the war, our leaders would've been put on trial for war crimes.
But I don't presume to judge the folks making decisions back then. I think dropping the bomb was unnecessary and immoral, but I understand that I also have the luxury of 20/20 hindsight and a different historical frame of reference shaped by the aftermath of that decision. I'm more concerned about learning the lessons and applying them to the insane policies our current leaders are executing.
The Dems learned from Hiroshima. We learned that we wanted to do it again to Nagasaki.
Hey, moron. I'm talking about dropping bombs on people after WWII, although culpability for Vietnam was shared by both parties.
We would not be in Iraq now if Al Gore had been president.

Troll logic at its best. It comes here, says we hate the troops, then when we say we don't hate them, it says our statement that we don't hate them is proof that our sentiment is not genuine because we're always saying we don't hate them after being accused of hating them.
Hey, fucking troll, I've already had one relative killed in Iraq -- April 28, 2005. I don't want to lose another one. I don't want anyone else to lose a relative or friend or loved one in this fucking war. What have you done to support the troops lately other than spew shit from your keyboard.
NTodd - she had the .38 tucked under her bridal garter too - that was just so sweet!
Actually, she carries a .45. No joke.
Never imagined it was - just figured something a little lighter for such a festive day...
However, while now myself wearing pants, I am off to the PO where they don't want me to carry weaponry. They have a little sign forbidding both guns and Arthur, which I think is kind of mean. I hope Cairo lets you play with the Big Stick for your birthday...
BillyB--I think the trollish ones fail to understand that actual patriotism involves real work.
Wow, the trolls are exceptionally
stupid this afternoon, aren't they?
Especially Spitzer.
As to my patriotism, in my resume, I have been on a school board, president of a PTA, paid taxes for 34 years, coached numerous adolescent athletic teams as a volunteer, been chairman of a United Way campaign for starters.
Billy B
Again with the defending your patriotism. Somebody has a guilty conscience.
why are you folks playing the trolls game?
they can't crow about bush but they sure can attempt to belittle the humans.

OT, but good one from over at Kos re: the White House stonewalling of producing memos for the Roberts' hearings. Choice passage (and I esp. like the last paragraph):
...What BushCo is REALLY doing is invoking Executive Privilege, not attorney client privilege. Seen in this manner, we can understand how brazen and audacious this stonewall from BushCo is. What Bush is saying to the Senate is that even though you want these memos in the exercise of your Constitutional duty to advise and consent on the naming of a Supreme Court Justice, we don't care. We don't want you to see these memos, even thought the documents clearly are no longer sensitive or timely, they are at least 12 years old after all.
What this means is Bush is prepared to provoke a Constitutional crisis, this is no hyperbole, a clash between the Executive and Legislative branches, over 12 year old memos that are clearly not relevant or important to any current matter being considered by the Executive branch.
What should the Senate do in the face of this outrageous tactic of White House obstruction and stonewall? I think it is obvious -- not consider the Roberts' nomination until the documents are produced.
For the institution of the Senate, this should be a matter of principle. To allow this outrageous abuse by the White House of the Senate is to allow the Senate to become subordinate to the White House. So much for co-equal branches.
Do I expect the Republicans and their pundit allies to insist on defending the principle of separation of powers, after all their pontificating on this principle over the years? Do pigs fly?
There is no emptier concept than the idea of a principled Republican. That is an extinct species.
Gee, guy, if we're putting you to sleep here why don't you just go crawl off into that race car bed your mommy bought for you and get comfortable?
Must refrain... from commenting... on... Ntodd's wife... must ... resist... must maintain... common decency...
Whew, that took it out of me.
That took more restraint than last weekend's bachelor party wall dance, and there was a 6'5" Mexican dude guaranteeing my decency then.
...the trolls are exceptionally
stupid this afternoon, aren't they?
DING DING DING DING DING!
We have a wiener!!!
Must have been like this in Berlin a few days before Hitler blew his brains out in the bunker...
Steve! I yearned for you tragically!
Hey, fucking troll, I've already had one relative killed in Iraq
Toonscribe
Did his IED go off prematurely?
To the Elliot S troll:
I have a sure-fire way for you to prove you are a true patriot.
I have a 15 year old son. Instead of him enlisting in about 2.5 years when he turns 18, I propose you enlist and take his place.
And happy birthday as well to Billy B. and Diane.
OT, but good one from over at Kos re: the White Hou-
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzz...
Thanks sis.
And, of course, we know who's benefitting from this war now, don't we.
Pathetic, fucking trolls.

Well, yeah, SOMEone's benefitting, but it ain't our trolls. They didn't have the right connections to get in on the Iraq Year Zero plunder. Thus their bitter childish ranting here.
What Bush is saying to the Senate is that even though you want these memos in the exercise of your Constitutional duty to advise and consent on the naming of a Supreme Court Justice, we don't care. We don't want you to see these memos, even thought the documents clearly are no longer sensitive or timely, they are at least 12 years old after all.
I said it last week.
Congress only has the power that the White House gives them.
Eunuchs all. Hope they're happy.
Today's trolls are not just exceptionally stupid, they're completely beneath contempt.
well Elliot troll, how about it?
I see that the commune is being well-served.

Cmon Elliot troll. Have you enlisted?
Hey Toby:
I've said it before, but ---
I love your gravatar.
It looks like my ass in a flannel
shirt!
Good job, son!
I don't know, sallyh. Seems to me that you let a lot of cruelty just slide by.
BillyB--make sure you get an 'opt out' form from his HS if you haven't done so already.
Toby--even you don't make jokes about dead service personnel.
too much troll chow.
you lay down with trolls you get up with santorum.

Not touching that one with a ten-foot pole.
Hey Toby:
Loved the segment on the Greta
Von Susteren show featuring the
lawyers for the underaged male goat
you fucked in your mom's basement.
How goes the restraining order?
The Saturday morning cartoons are over and sports are too complex adn sophisticated for trolls to follow, so they are over here.
To the anonymous shitheel who made the joke about toonscribe's bush-murdered relative...
please, sir, repeat that witticism at any and every chance...
were i in the place of toonscribe, and you uttered that charming observation aloud in my presence, you would not have walked away...
promise...

sallyh:
Toby--even you don't make jokes about dead service personnel.
He meant terrorists. As in, Toonscribe is a cousin to a jihadist?

Eliot Spitzer
One last bit of troll chow, and I'm through:
I guess that actually means you feel no need to defend your country in uniform, at least not while there's a chance you could get an ouchie on your little pink behind.
Did his IED go off prematurely?
Courageous little piece of dog shit, aren't you?
No, Toons is a cousin to a US serviceman who was KIA in April.
Atrios,
your post does raise a very good point. I feel it harder to delineate what it takes for a figure to be considered public (does it solely rely on appearance in the TV and radio media) ? What about big name journalists that do not appear on television, or reclusive but famous authors ? What about highly recognized bloggers ? What criteria would you have fulfilled before you would consider yourself a pubnlic figure ?
Eliot Spitzer- interesting name for a troll complaining about anybody else's patriotism- One of the few from the Nixon Admin. who was actually convicted, sentenced, and served for crimes against the United States of America.
Linen swap
Remember -- vulgarity is not a
substitute for wit.
Unlike your deranged self I feel no need to defend my patriotism.
Eliot Spitzer
Not defending patriotism. Just giving examples thereof.
Got to run now all. Check you later.
We got it Toby.
It was stupid and cruel and if that's the way he feels about our dead service people he's a traitorous scumbag.
Now comes the moral posturing and the emotionalism. Perfect substitutes for the things that don't come so easily, like vision and self-preservation and a sense of justice.
Toby doesn't have any family. They disowned his worthless ass years ago. So he has trash other's family because he's an envious little prick.
and if that's the way he feels about our dead service people
Then you don't get it, Honey.
Dumass:

Hmmm. I think the commune's standards are starting to slip.
Now comes Toby's pathetic sanctimonius bullshit.
...I feel no need to defend my patriotism.
It's pretty fucking hard to defend what you don't have, you cowardly chickenshited brownshirt motherfucker.
Now take a fucking hike.
OK, one more: The unevolved slime that made the contemptible comment about toonscribe's relative is absolutely and totally representative of the type of person who supports George W. Bush and his treasonous administration.
And you Republicans have the burden of proving that you are actually not in agreement with his/her sick spewings.
Hey Toby:
Instead of stinking up the joint,
why aren't you updating your piece
of shit blog that nobody ever
comments at?
Enlighten us.....
Then you don't get it, Honey.
You know, I usually don't directly respond to anything these pathetic brownshirted motherfuckers say, but this time I'm going to make an exception:
Get the fuck out of here. You've got your own blog where you can spew your worthless, incoherant bullshit to your heart's content. The fact that NOBODY ever visits it should give you a clue that nobody with a brain in their head gives a fuck what you have to say. The only reason you persist in posting here is so you can jerk off to the abuse. You're a cowardly little chickenhawk prick, you're not welcome here, you're postings are drooling ramblings that people only respond to so they can make fun of you. Find a dom and a dungeon and get the fuck out of here.
Got it?
We get it, Toby. You are an amoral piece of shit and that goes for the rest of the trolls.
WGG
Rest assured, if our fucking troll said that to my face, he wouldn't walk away. We truly see how much they really support the troops, don't we? It's all just a fucking joke to these W-felching chickenhawks. Hell's too good for them.
One of the few from the Nixon Admin. who was actually convicted, sentenced, and served for crimes against the United States of America.
Eliot Abrams?
I live in Boston. I do tend to stay home on Friday nights, as well as the weekend nights.
I really don't drink, and certainly don't drink where the booze is expensive, and one is surrounded by either loud obnoxious sports fanatics, drunken fratboys or yuppie types, looking to get laid.
There are a couple of local places that are fine quiet establishments for people to meet and enjoy a drink or two, sans chants of "YANKEES SUCK!", projectile vomiting and conspicuous rutting.
But, as I siad, I don't drink.
Neither do I seek to get laid with the same desperate frenzy as our anon troll seems to think is "normal". Waking up next to someone whose name you cannot remember is not something to be proud of.
But that's just me.
But, finally, I think why we keep seeing the same names here all the time, is that we enjoy the conversation and silliness as an anodyne to the daily horroshow that is the news.
On a Saturday night, we can liveblog the SciFi original movie and forget, for two hours, what awful things are occurring in the world.
Beats getting drunk, fucking some equally drunk skag (of either sex) and awaking in a pool of vomit.
Hopefully our own vomit.
But feel free to keep trolling, little asswipe. We find it amusing, in the same way we find GWB trying to think and speak and listen to the voice in his earpiece at the same time amusing.
Clean, so far troll free sheets

The only reason you persist in posting here is so you can jerk off to the abuse....

Who let Toby out of the asylum?
And after a week of calling Hackett a "staff puke" and acting like being in Iraq is like a stroll in the park, this filth goes back to the tired "you hate the troops and love the terrorists" crap.
he is a public figure under any jurisdiction's interpretation of the term. watch out, or he'll run for office next. the bitch.
Toby, for the love of GOD!
Will you PLEASE turn off your WEBCAM!
Thank you!
I imagine "public figure" is on the same page of Novak's personal dictionary as "CIA operative"
As long as we're celebrating "Let the trolls know they made a serious mistake Day":
I have been on a school board, president of a PTA, paid taxes for 34 years, coached numerous adolescent athletic teams as a volunteer, been chairman of a United Way campaign for starters...
Billy B
Boys and girls... it is just me?.. or does that read like a wire service story describing one community's beloved "family guy", just before he went bonkers and shot up the day care center?
Being away most of the week has one benefit, no Toby.
I haven't read the whole thread but if no one has said it, Novak isn't a public figure in exactly the same way that Sully's bareback ads complete with nude neck down views (excellent emetic, btw) consititute his privacy.
toby is like a bad penny.
he always keeps comming back.
I'm a journalist, on TV sometimes. I write for a big enough publication that I see my stories cited elsehwhere. I'm kind of lower middle class on the public recognition scale. But... I am a public figure. I mean, part of my job involves prying into other people's lives, taking their lives public. If that's what I do, then I have to accept that it could happen to me. I've been fortunate, actually, because some of the things I've written have led to or helped various federal indictments, but the investigators, in those cases, have preferred to build the cases on their own. I've talked to some of them, who say they reconstructed my stories. In all cases, I called them, after seeing a release or news item about the indictment. In all cases, the investigators said that the story gave them the idea but that they then reconstructed the facts on their own and that the prefer to do it that way. That's great to know. See, they don't want to indict somebody unless they personally believe, beyond reasonable doubt, that they'll succeed in prosecuting.
My point is... I've been close to having my work brought into an investigation. I really never want that to happen because, like all journos, I do have off the record sources, and yet, still... I make my living bringing stories to the public. So, in a sense, I'm public, even if I'm not rich and famous like Novak.
All I know is this... every month, I have a rent check due and every day, food ain't free. I pay those bills by writing things that I and my publisher hopes that the public will read. So, it'd be hard for me to claim not to be a somewhat public figure.
Drudge tried to claim that Hush Bimbo wasn't a public political figure so Dean should lay off him!
Here's my yardstick: Journalists by and large should be accorded rights as private citizens. It's none of our f***ing business what they do or think in their private lives and I categorically do NOT buy into any theories about journalists refraining from doing stories about bad people if they can't hold their own lives up as sin-free.
That said, the hack ideologue Robert Novak is NOT a journalist, first of all, and second, he long ago crossed the line into being a public figure. The minute you choose to publicize yourself, go on talk shows, grant interviews, take political stands and promote them, you're a public figure whehter you're Bob Novak or a real journalist. Push a book? Join the ranks of public figures.
Quite simply, Novak is NO LONGER a "public figure." Saying it makes it so, if we believe in ourselves.
He's lost all credibility. See ya, Bob, I hear McDonald's is hiring..
Atrios, are you a public person?
If I were on a jury deciding a case of libel against you, I would say you are not, that your privacy deserves maximum protection. I'd say the same for Mike M.
You are nationally known, but not because of your personal life. Nor are you employed by the public. You are trying to report news, not make it.
Now, Novak may have crossed the line into being a public figure because he has made news. People have a reason to discuss his personal behavior, at least as it relates to acting as a Republican operative rather than a journalist.
But I think Rosen may be pointing to a genuine issue. Let's defend one another's right to privacy, while also defending the freedom to discuss legitimate issues of public interest.
Charles, I appreciate what you're saying howevr, even though to a lesser extent than Novak... I do depend on the public to make my living and I also bring the lives of other private citizens public in order to do so. Believe me, if CNN were to call and offer me a regular commentary slot, that I could use to promote all of the various writings I do, I'd take it! I'm never for criminalizing journalism and I even disagree with most of what's said here about Miller, but... even I have a hard time believing that I can get paid by the public and be compltely private.
Too fucking bad, Bobby. If you're going to act like a little child and storm off when accountability is knocking on your door, fuck you.
Judith Miller and Matthew Cooper paid the price for much lesser offensives than you, and yet you get off scot-free? Whatever....

Show Novakula a wooden cross, I bet he will storm off yelling, "Bullshit!"
Yeah, c'mon you liberal elites...get off his back!
It's not like he was a real public figure, like Dan Rather or Michael Moore.
Besides, Michael Moore is fat.
