Speaking of nasty things in one’s gullet, my plan tonight is to go watch Prometheus at midnight :^D

Just don’t like drinking something that tastes like liquid bread.
I have no quarrel with people who do like beer; I just never have been able to get past the smell or taste.
Now, a good, dark heavy red wine every once in a while, that’s not bad.
I find this “blogging day of silence” ridiculous. Forgive my speaking bluntly, but it is the truth.
There is nothing most of the Powers that Be would like than to see the rightwing blogosphere fall silent—permanently. So why give them that satisfaction for even a single day? A better response would be to comment twice as much, twice as fast! Brett Kimberlin and his buttlickers get an undeserved victory if any conservative blog falls silent; what are such blogs doing? Acting like five-year-olds, or—worse—progs, holding their breath ’til they turn blue? Saying, “I’m upset that you’re not behaving properly, legal powers, so I’m gonna be quiet instead of being a gadfly, and then you’ll be sorry!”
Excuse me, but—how fucking stupid is that?

This blog will NOT go silent on account of punks like Kimberlin. That’s all I have to say about that. Thanks.
@ buzzsawmonkey:
I agree, not sure what the logic is there other than to draw attention. Still I’ll blog about Aaron Walker before midnight and take tomorrow off. I blog about once a week anyway.

Then that means that any “blogging day of silence” in some sort of “protest” is in the ashcan.
Good.
buzzsawmonkey wrote:
We already have something scheduled for 8am tomorrow.
@ savage:
I scheduled that but was informed we’re going to support them AND keep blogging. There will be a post with the information about it and then headlines all day long.
I’m with y’all though. I don’t think they should win for a day and I don’t get how that is punishing #asshole.
@ buzzsawmonkey:
I am with you on that, Buzz. Particularly as some Lefty or Greeny (is there a difference) sites went dark a few days ago in protest of something or other.
Be loud, and be proud.
@ Alberta Oil Peon:
Oh for real? Now I feel icky.

Here is a video well worth watching:
@ Alberta Oil Peon:
ROTFLMAO… Truth i advertising was never so funny…
I am Aaron Walker.

Oh, and somebody should do ads like that against Obama, they would totally decimate him.
@ Alberta Oil Peon:
Wow. God love the internet and fuck the MSM.
@ buzzsawmonkey:
I agree that it doesn’t make sense for bloggers to go silent. But it sounds smarter when you say it. lol
@ yenta-fada:
And the beauty of it is, if the ones who do go silent start unduly criticizing those who don’t, we can just say, “Hey, dillweed, the Right is not a collective. We are independent thinkers, that’s what being Right is all about.”

This is my response to the “Day of Silence” ok, it’s just an excerpt, it will go up tomorrow morning.
I’ll post a link to it when it goes up.
@ buzzsawmonkey:
That was my opinion also, although I didn’t say it like that. It’s as effective as a pink ribbon magnet on your car.
We are just going to have a post on the day of silence. But will have other posts during the day. So it will be just one post on it.
You can’t make this stuff up Dept. You need ID to attend Mooche’s new book signing. All Comrades MUST purchase the book.
As stated on the blog Obama Foodorama:
On Friday, June 8th, those wishing to attend the event must purchase a copy of the First Lady’s book at the location and leave it at the store, according to the employee. At the same time, customers must also submit their social security number and show an official photo ID (driver’s license, passport) to a Secret Service agent, and they will be issued a wristband to the First Lady’s event on June 12.( Emphasis added)
The liberal media, particularly Obama-boosting cable network MSNBC has done its best to attack voter ID laws as discriminatory.
It’s not my fault that Mooch and Zero provide us with daily snark material. *eyeroll*
@ Rodan:
Why would RW blogs boycott themselves? Yeah, I know it’s too late.

Icarus is funnier. Just sayin’.
Day of Silence is fine. As is a day of noise. On a blog like this one a day of noise is probably easier to implement than a day of silence.
Silence to me is prayer and reflection. I seldom use my silence to example a negative. But people do it.
ooops it is day of silence now isn’t it???
Good morning. Wide awake at 4:26 in a hotel room ,an hour
and a half before my wake up call.
Damn buddy, can’t have more fun.
Democrats swiftly turn on Bill Clinton calling him basically a senile tottering old man. He should switch parties and campaign for Romney for that.
@ waldensianspirit:
I like how they are turning on Bill. And I like how Bill stuck the xhiv into Obama’s back. I wish confusion and discord to our enemies. It is going to be fun watching them come apart when Obama loses in the fall!
The White House has commented about Cory Booker,
“He’s dead to us.”
I don’t like anonymous sources, but this one you
pretty much know is true.
@ RIX:
There’s nothing a cult hates worse than heretics, and Obamaism is definately a cult. I love it. I’m hoping for a mini-Civil War amongst Democrats. They can hate each other until their little black hearts are content.
@ Iron Fist:
The Left is a dishonest group of people. They will pull any
outrageous lie up the flag pole. If noone salutes, they just
go on to the next one.
Not surprising that they can’t even trust each other.
Later
gotta bury a great family friend today
RIP Walt
@ mawskrat:
My condolences.
A great read: K-Hammer; Public Unions’ Icarus Moment
@ mawskrat:
Sorry to hear that. Condolences to you and your friend’s family.

@ huckfunn:
I hope he is right. Certainly the Unions poured everything they had into Wisconsin, and they came up far short. They didn’t even get Kleefisch, which I had been worried that they would. I am very pleased about the Wisconsin results. And think of it: those are millions of dollars that the Unions won’t have to pour into the November elections. That money is gone, and they can’t get it back. Plus, this makes the Democrats look like losers. It blunts the air odf inevitibility that Obama has tried to cultivate. To top it off, Romney out fund-raised Obama by $17 million in the month of May! That is huge. Obama expected to be able to steam-roll Romney with money, and it doesn’t look like that is going to happen now.
@ rain of lead:
Good morning! Today is a good day. It is Friday, and I just have one week remaining at my current job. I am so looking forward to my new job. It’ll be hard for a while, just getting up to speed and all, but it will be interesting, too. I have a lot to learn.
@ Iron Fist:
awesome
change is good
New Thread.
a good read
The Obama administration suddenly looks like a house of cards
President Obama’s problem now isn’t what Wisconsin did, it’s how he looks each day—careening around, always in flight, a superfluous figure. No one even looks to him for leadership now. He doesn’t go to Wisconsin, where the fight is. He goes to Sarah Jessica Parker’s place, where the money is.
There is, now, a house-of-cards feel about this administration
@ Iron Fist:
K-Hammer is just one of many people who read this election the same way. The unions are unfanged in WI and other states with public sector unions are taking note. I’m glad to see those thugs beaten back.
Meanwhile, I need to get over to La Grange this morning. There’s a great BBQ joint over there. Oh, and I also need to get some work done.
Later…
@ rain of lead:
Just saw this. Liberals Threaten Not To Vote In November Over Disappointment With Obama
Being See-B.S., they naturally had to throw in some B.S. like this, but they’re dreaming.
Haw!
@ huckfunn:
If I’ve become enthusiastic about Romney (and I have), I don’t think enthusiasm is going to be a problem. We (the Base) want Obama out. Romney isn’t perfect, but give him a Republican House and Senate, and we’d better see Change we can Believe in…

My condolences. Losing a friend is hard and it seems to get harder with each one you lose.

Personally, I think Romney will be a pleasant surprise. He’s not an ideologue, but a dispassionate, effective manager and that seems to fill the bill right now. In terms of foreign policy, he’s, admittedly an unknown, but I believe he loves his country and will do the right thing by her.
