List: Blocked On Twitter By...

As of 6/28/12, (in order of most recent to least recent, as far as I know) I am blocked on Twitter by:

@jtLOL - Jim Treacher - Discovered today (6/28/12) and a complete surprise. The last time we interacted in any form was months ago, as far as I can even recall...and I think that was as commenters on some third party's blog, rather than via twitter. Nevertheless, I'm honored that he thought me worthy.

@Skye820 - Tania Gail (Ciolko) - Discovered 6/23/12--(but probably in place a whole lot longer than that--perhaps years, even--because I can't even hazard a guess as to the last time we interacted via any medium)--when she added her cents to a Donald Douglas slam on me, after he mentioned her in one of his tweets. "Casper fears me."

For the record, Skye820 and I had a few interactions on one of her blogs (now defunct - See: Wingnuts and Moonbats: Free Speech, Imus, and the Free Market) and in Youtube comments about anti-war protests back in 2007. If we interacted anywhere more than ten times in total between January, 2008 and now, I'd be surprised. That she ever accused me of "stalking" her to anyone, even based on the 2007 interactions--where I commented on her public blog no more than 5-10 times, probably, (mostly about the Imus case, as I recall) and also at youtube videos (one or two she posted, and a few others where we were both just commenters) for another 10 or so--is pretty laughable.

As I said in reply to her tweet (or was it Donald's?), the political blogosphere is pretty small, and anyone who hasn't interacted with many of the same people at/in different venues probably doesn't go to more than one or two very insular venues to start with. Even following someone from one venue to a second to see more of what they post--which I suppose it's possible I did do, perhaps seeing a YouTube video that she embedded at her blog, and then going to YouTube to watch and comment on it--shouldn't really be all that scandalous to anyone who's spent more than a few days on the internet. In fact, I'd argue that it's pretty common, and what most people who embed their videos or other activities hosted at other sites INTEND for you to do. I'm just sayin'

@AndrewBreitbart - Disgraced Conservative Blogger Andrew Breitbart - Blocked Sunday, April 25, 2010 - One of his fellow right-winger fans--or maybe just a troll--sent me a racist photo ( A quick search revealed that the guy sent weird photos to pretty much everyone who argued with Breitbart on twitter. Mine just happened to be racist), and I used it to rebut Breitbart's claim that there are no racist right-wingers. Hilarity ensues. (In this case, hilarity came in the form of a knee-jerk banning, rather than any reflection about what actually happened. In retrospect though, I was wrong to hold disgraced conservative blogger Andrew Breitbart responsible for his wacked out, bigoted fan (or troll).) The whole sordid tale, with photos and links and all, is recounted here. As with Jim Treacher--moreso, in fact--I was honored to be blocked by such a prominent wingnut blowhard.

@AmPowerBlog - Donald Kent Douglas - (Since the day he started the account, prolly. He obviously fears my obvious superior moral fortitude, obviously.) - If there's anyone reading this post who doesn't know the backstory, please peruse as many posts as it takes at the following blog to understand why we're not tweeps.: American Nihilist (another blog I once started, currently in hibernation). There is no honor to be had from this blocking...and no honor in the man doing the blocking, either...

X-Post: I Think Maybe Breitbart Was Saying "Stop RAPPING, People!!!"

You know, there's entirely too much of this in the world. Maybe that's what caused disgraced conservative blogger Andrew Breitbart to freak out:

The "rap" that probably set DCBAB off:


The "studio" version is almost as embarrassing:


To the list of items which are always excellent ideas… ...add conservative rapping - Lawyers, Guns & Money

How about some Young Cons:


More:


Wolverines?:


And the progressive rapper response to the Wolverines, by Satellite High (The best of the bunch...):


Et tu, Mr. Destructo?: ARE Y'ALL READY FOR SOME WHITE PEOPLE?

Is this where it all started? Tea Partay, Baybay:


And of course, the James O'Keefe, wingnut mac daddy theme song:

It's no wonder the crazy fuck was roaming around outside yelling "NO RAPPING, PEOPLE!!!"
Seeing the video(s), it all makes sense...

A Wingnuts and Moonbats x-post

X-Post: Disgraced Conservative Blogger Andrew Breitbart Loses Control - Campus Progress

EXCLUSIVE VIDEO: Blogger Andrew Breitbart to Occupiers: ‘Stop Raping People!’ - Campus Progress:

Disgraced "Conservative blogger-star Andrew Breitbart lashed out at Occupy protesters outside of CPAC, the mass annual gathering of conservatives, in Washington, DC on Friday night. Campus Progress reporter Emily Crockett was on the scene and captured video of Breitbart losing it, screaming at the protesters 'Behave yourselves!' and 'Stop raping people!'"

Follow the link to read the rest of her account.



I don't know about you, but all this video shows me is some nut lurking behind a bush who comes out screaming insanely at a bunch of kids and daring them to take a swing at his protruding chin, until he's dragged away by the police, still screaming wildly and hoping to provoke somethin'. (And right there at the end, his body posture almost looks like he's been placed in a straight jacket, adding to the overall "crazy man" effect.)

I'm sure this video makes him a hero to the CPACers inside, but out here in the real world, disgraced conservative blogger Andrew Breitbart just comes off like he's lost control of his faculties...

YMMV, but I think the crazy old boy ought to... what's the phrase?... "beHAAAAAVE himself," in future... (and stop raping the truth, while he's at it.)

A Wingnuts and Moonbats x-post

James O'Keefe, and the Sinking of The Lubesitania: It never happened.

A reply (revised and extended) to: Are Breitbart bloggers forbidden from writing about the O'Keefe "prank"? - Media Matters for America, and this comment by Andy Kreiss (1 hour and 1 minute ago, as of this writing) in particular:

"One exception was The Blaze, another poster tipped me off that it was being discussed there. A good number of the wingnuts there were very suspicious that the incident had even happened ( they don't consider CNN a reliable source), even as it was reported on Glenn Beck's site, including responses about the incident from O'Keefe himself."

The same thing is happening among the commenters at HotAir, at least at Allahpundit's recent post "CNN accuses James O’Keefe of bizarre prank"... This may be the meme folks on the right go with... ...it just plain never happened.

If any of this was even planned at all, it was all that guy Ben Wetmore's fault, and James DildO'Keefe had nothing to do with it. (that seems to be the line DidO'Keefe is runnin' with; Ben wrote it, and JimmYo rejected the idea, outright. -- which is no kinda way for a bro to stick up for a bro, if ya ask me...) The fact is, there were no sex toys or mood music on the boat James and his low cut shirt were waiting on that day (dubbed "The Lubesitania" at tbogg's place), and you just go ahead and prove there was... You just prove it. I dares ya... I double-dares ya...

AND... even if it was actually planned, and James actually was involved in it, the thing on The Lubesitania never actually took place. Therefore, no harm, no foul, right?

At least until somethin' better comes along, that seems to be the meme folks on the right are going with...

Also, via a commenter at an earlier TBogg post on the subject, this has to be DildO'Keefe's joint:



(John C. Reilly even looks a little like disgraced conservative blogger Andrew Breitbart in this vid, if ya ask me...)
