OMFG!!! You MUST see this
The FREEKERS have posted an article by David Whore-owitz.

Is this their latest way to spin this away from Rove, Scooter, Oil Dick, and the Dribbling Murder Monkey?!?!?!?

Those folks have so separated themselves from reality that it is no longer hyperbole to say that they are suffering from mental illness.

4. They sure love to say "Ping" don't they?
When you don't have anything interesting to say just write "Ping" which translates to "Ditto Head" which translates to "Dumb Fucking Sheep".

"...They indict one of ours, then we indict one of theirs. If they want to play hardball, let's play hardball."
Actually, I think the philosophy has been stated this way:

They indict one of ours, we send two of theirs to the morgue...

7. Full of lies. Boy I hate clicking on the freeper links. You only got me
to do it because I was curious what fantasy Whore-owitz (nice spelling, I like it) was spinning this time.

But that's what they do, they change the facts to fit the agenda.

32. Excuse me. Are you saying this is true?!
I went over and looked at it. It's the same lies.

As far as I've been able to discover, she did not send her husband. It wasn't her decision to do so.

I especially like the loaded exposition: the treasonous nature of an action...treacherous anti-Bush wife...at the feet of liar Joseph Wilson giving him a dinner and award for his treachery..

Nice. Lies and spin.

45. He Did This When He Was "On The Left"
There are those who will remember the Young David Horowitz...the radical firebrand who was going to take "the authorities" to task for their indoctrination and exploitation of the masses...blah blah blah. That's been this asshat's shtick for several decades. It's amusing to look back on the stuff he wrote in the mid and late 70's (I remember reading those in Rolling Stone and thinking "this is one bizarre dude" back then...and he was supposed on "our side" then).

Of course, being a left wing hack doesn't pay well. We're pretty crappy on people with little ideological ethics and Whore-owitz soon found a nice fat payday by taking his old shtick that we found marginally amusing at the time and has turned it into a pseudo-career courtesy of Scaiffe and the other wingnuts who throw money at him.

He had to put out something, cause this is his job...this is how he pays for the Club dues and the nice vacations, when the master calls, he biles. It works so well cause he does it in an echo chamber that was already entrenched with hatred and looking for scapegoat to avoid their own responsibilities. Whore-owitz writes stories for them that make them feel good. Then they put money in his cup.

The good thing is to keep a lot of these slam and lies and spins...as in the future they will look so absurd and surreal...and then to use these words to keep these scum buckets from getting any serious public hearing again.

Cheers...

11. Wow... I'm impressed.
This is a well-woven chunk of BS. It's easily proven wrong by a few simple questions as well.

But it's clever enough to work on people who aren't interested in any facts at all.

That's ok, they can have their fantasy for a little while longer. After the facts are in, the truth will be known.

In the meanwhile... has anybody asked what happened to Brewster-Jennings and Associates between the 9th and the 16th of July 2003?

That's the golden question.

Prosecute Plame: More Treachery in the War at Home
frontpagemag.com ^ | July 16, 2005 | DAVID HOROWITZ


Posted on 07/16/2005 8:20:46 PM PDT by DaveTesla


So now we know a lot of the facts. In the midst of a war, a rogue CIA employee named Valerie Plame set out to sabotage the President's war policy -- a policy ratified by both political parties and both houses of Congress. To do this she sent her husband on a mission to Niger to discredit the President's statement that Saddam Hussein was seeking uranium there -- in other words to discredit a justification for the war in which Americans were continuing to die. Forget for a moment the treasonous nature of an action designed to undermine a duly arrived at war policy and to destroy the credibility of the commander-in-chief while this nation's soldiers were in harm's way. The mere act of sending a relative on a mission like this was illegal under existing statutes for someone in Plame's position.

Her husband, Joseph Wilson, went off to Niger, did no investigation and came back and lied about what he had allegedly discovered. The bi-partisan 9/11 commission concluded that Wilson's claims were false -- a year and half after the damage the Plame-Wilson team intended was already done.

The Plame-Wilson lie was designed to make the President look like a liar and the nation's democratically and legally arrived at war policy a fraud. This came right at the climax of anti-war primary campaign of Howard Dean in July 2003, just three months after the fall of Baghdad and when the terrorist counter-attack had already begun.

Immediately the Democratic Party leadership jumped on the President calling him a liar and a fraud using the 16 words in the January 2003 State of the Union address about Niger as evidence. These 16 words were perfectly true than (as now) yet that didn't stop Democrats from using the Plame-Wilson lies to undermine the authority of the commander-in-chief in the eyes of the American people and before the entire world. No psychological warfare campaign ever conducted by an enemy against the United States has been as effetive as this one.

27. Yeah, I know.
I found the RW spin to be laughable. I guess some people use that site as their only source of news, like Faux watchers or something.

I've seen other instances where some Freeker finally posts an article for ridicule that's been in the news no less than two weeks, and a member will post, "Is this for real?"

Meanwhile, the event has been discussed ad nauseaum on all the major news networks, and all over the net. They're f-ing clueless.

oh, I get it:
revealing a war as wrong is evil, ‘coz they’ll continue the war despite this, and that would mean they’re dying in vain (logic is not their strong suit)

16. Horror-witz is really off the deep end here.
The level of projection is pretty amazing.
And the freepers:
"I would love to see the faces of Schumer and Reid if Horowitz is right....and the grand jury is given this evidence and hands down indictments of Plame and Wilson!

I have been wondering the same thing. What if the SP's target is actually Joe Wilson and/or Valerie Plame? What a shocker to the left loonies that would be!"

Delusional!

Stupid, too:
"Also, I think it is interesting that Fitzgerald comes from the Southern District of NY. That's the office invetigating Clintons. I am telling you. She will not run."

Of course, Fitzgerald is from Chicago. Besides, didn't the Southern District finally stop investigating the Clintons?

17. 'treason' carries libel implications. Wilson should sue his ass.
there is a concept in libel law, even for public figures, which is 'reckless disregard for the truth.'

Fucking Horowitz, still agonizing over that woman he sent to her death -- he was once a radical leftie, and sent a colleague to work on the Black Panthers' books. She found a lot of ripoffs and wound up dead. Horowitz has been trying to atone for it ever since.

but calling Wilson is not just an insult. Wilson should tear his ass up in court....assuming that that stupid dildo's comments are even worth responding to...

28. Horowitz doesn't distinguish between Iraq and Afghanistan?
Congress had not approved Iraq when Wilson went there. Horowitz is nothing but a shill. To think he used to be a radical liberal.

31. This is real neocon stuff
Beware any argument that is black and white. Horowitz the Hatchet is transparently a twitter about this administrations single minded vision to commit to war against the entire islamic universe. This is opinion on my part but I sense there is a quasi religious end times holy land deal going on here that happens to mesh quite nicely with those who love the sound of oil money as it eminates from the destroyed and ruined souls of poor American soldiers and certain unfortunate tribes in the middle east.
I have no priviledged information. I am a shmuck who swallowed all the boy scout stuff about democracy being all this nation ever fought for and that fascism was too evil for our shores. I knew we stood for liberty and justice for all. I have been educated by nothing other that my eyes and ears ever since Viet Nam or should I say ever since Dallas. I was wide eyed proud to be a good guy without a doubt in my mind up to then. David Horowitz is the epitomy of what my mind was once unable to consider. David is hard even now for me to comprehend. David is intellectually dishonest. He has an agenda that he is too cowardly to discuss. Instead of explaining his religious convictions he spins poison about honest people who have no commitment to the Holy Land. Killing reputations, careers and people is ok with David. He is fighting gods war. If David declared his religious convictions I would say "Wow, I respect that!. I think it is pretty lame but thanks for letting me know where you come from."
I will bet that if the subject of the middle east, or this current affair of PlameGate were not on the agenda that David and I would have many liberal areas of common ground to share. It has happened to me before. The eyes glaze over. The intellectual reparte disappears and a Stepford Wive monotone conviction ensues. Two and two is five. Black is white. We are good. They are evil. x(

Edited on Sun Jul-17-05 09:04 AM by IMModerate
That reminds me of a Mark Twain tract where he analyzed a 137 word paragraph by James Fenimore Cooper and found 149 errors.

Horowitz can lie more in one paragraph than I can in my lifetime, and I'm not a saint. This is more fantasy than Harry Potter.
