Week of February 17, 2008 - February 23, 2008

Brainstorming Needed: Using "FARK" or some other verbal neutralizer to stop right-wing attacks?


I've got an idea I'm trying to flesh out.  A few months ago I read about Fark.com.  The website founder came out with the book "It's Not News, It's Fark: How Mass Media Tries to Pass off Crap as News."  Great website, and great idea.  Now if only it would catch on and be effectively used against Bill O'Lielly, Anne Coulter, Michael Savage, Rush Limbaugh, and my Republican friends, etc.

Simply telling the truth doesn’t work; these attacks must be called out as Fark and the Farking lie-teller must be made to feel foolish for repeating such Fark.

I was hoping it would catch on so I could call my Republican friends out on their Fark, but it hasn't quite caught on.  Basically, I'm worried that Barack will be hit with some of the nastiest lies and personal attacks we've ever seen.  Reasonable people will see through most of these attacks (like "former madrassa student", "hidden Muslim", "racist church in

It's Quiet, A Little Too Quiet


Barack hit the right notes at the debate; very substantive and he looked very presidential.

But now I'm a little dissappointed in myself that I'm not as focused on beating Hillary.  She gave a pretty conciliatory speech at the end of the debate, and it sounded a bit like she knows she's done.  But there was still talk today of her trynig to steal the MI and FLA delegates, and apparently Wolfson said Barack met with '60's terrorists.  Wow.  Still the scorched earth stuff.  Bad for the Democrats.

Hillary:  Please drop out now.
