Remember that wingnut Kenneth Gladney, who pretended to get super super beaten up by the Obama’s “union thugs” outside a town hall in St. Louis, and then wanted to make tons of money being half-famous like Joe the Plumber? His lawyer isn’t paying the website bills anymore! Huh. And so, with this, we will now close the very thin file on Kenneth Gladney. [Washington Independent]

…and then he was eaten by rats.
The End.
What’s the frequency, Kenneth?
It should redirect to IAmAForgottenMeme.com.
Today we are no longer Kenneth Gladney.
Freedom isn’t free and neither is bandwith.
when keepin it reals goes wrong
Soon to be rebranded as a gay porn site.
I never heard of this guy, but if it brings good luck to wear a red baseball cap and spit on his head, I’m all for it.
Wow. Those fifteen minutes got ate up quick!
Sorry to hear it. I thought “The Tipping Point” was good.
Nice typography, I didn’t want to read that quote anyway.
Why does every conservative web site suck?
OH MY GOD!
They billed Kenny!
Those bastards!
Fuck you Kenny, and the chapter 11 you rode in on.
Any man with a surname that evokes a corrupt adoption agency which has served the tastelessly rich in Dallas for decades by fighting to keep vital information from adoptess deserves anonymity. A stretch, to be sure, but it’s all I got.
And don’t pay the “website developer” either. The font for his no doubt heartwarming quotation is illegible. And the photo makes my skin crawl. Is Kenneth a Special Olympian about to be molested by a tatt guy whose sexuality hasn’t been turned inward enough through porn?
I guess the Missouri bar is cool when one of its lawyers sets up a website with a big photo of his client on it, claiming that the guy is a deadbeat who shirked an (probably) outrageously overpriced legal bill.
This is clearly RACIALISTISM and really fucking stupid.
BTW, what’s up with Bush and the $20 polyester sport coat he wore to the Cowboy’s game last night?
[re=415818]Extemporanus[/re]: win!
What does it cost to keep a website up and running? $9.95 a month? The wingnut’s sympathy for colored cripples is simply not sufficient to pay the exorbitant webmaster fees of GoDaddy.
[re=415830]Scarab[/re]: Wasn’t last night “$20 Polyester Sport Coat Night”?
Or is that every night in Dallas?
but who will be the embodiment of irony for us now that uninsured teabagger/healthcare protester kenneth gladney can’t afford to?
[re=415804]ManchuCandidate[/re]: But all porn is gay porn.
no, i don’t remember him. is he the fellow who carved a backwards “o” on his cheek?
“Liberty knows no race, sex, creed or color. You see, liberty is for us all. It was given to us by our Creator. That includes all of us, even us coloreds who are shamelessly working against our own self-interest by aligning ourselves with a party steeped in bigotry and hate-mongering based on a delusional fear of the other. Unfortunately, Liberty knows not how to write a check because Liberty has no hands. Because Liberty couldn’t write me that big fat check it promised me if I helped promote death panels and lies about socialist medicine my sleazy lawyer could not in good faith continue to support my site. Liberty also felt it was necessary that my lawyer post an embarrassing message highlighting my insolvency instead of the usual “This site no longer exists” most left wing liberals post when the webmaster’s check bounces. This is how the free market is supposed to work.”
—Kenneth
Today we are all deadbeat, website-owning, attention whores.
I call bullshit. If real union thugs would have gotten hold of this guy, he’d be mouldering under 3 feet of expertly poured concrete foundation by now.
The Internet doesn’t care about black people.
[re=415872]Snarkalicious[/re]: teachers union. no concrete. their method was to make him fill in the little bubbles on standardized tests, WITHOUT A #2 PENCIL, until he screamed for mercy.

FOX has enough people on staff making up stories. They don’t need to support freelance liars like Kenny or that crazy chick with the backwards B.
He looks like he’s wearing a SpongeBob life preserver in that photo. Not exactly the way to get respeck.
On second glance, I’m pretty sure that photo backdrop was from a “Clayton Biggsby for President” rally in 2008.
[re=415835]RoscoePColtraine[/re]: My work website costs $10 a year. No wonder the bitters are so poor, they suck at personal finance.
A brief scan of the conservative celebrities grasping for an extension of their 15 minutes of fame (political dingleberries if you will) seems to suggest some latent racial disparities:
Famous for making an ass of yourself: Carrie Prejean, Joe the Plumber, Joe Wilson, Kenneth Gladney
Able to convert fame into money, credibility, speaking gigs: Carrie Prejean, Joe the Plumber, Joe Wilson
Left in his wheelchair: Kenneth Gladney
Of course correlation is not causation…
[re=415804]ManchuCandidate[/re]: Judging from the photo, I’d assumed it already had.
[re=415808]queeraselvis v 2.0[/re]: and ten of them were spent replaying the video where he jumps right back up off the ground after getting bumped into.
Today, we are all white men in red baseball caps kissing bald heads of Negroes for good luck.
[re=415927]eclecticbrotha[/re]: I voted for Clayton earlier today, but I didn’t see Kenneth.
And of course, those corrections about Gladney’s story being bullshit should be being printed/filmed any time now.
Right?
Also Nicht Sprach Kennethustra.
[re=415846]eclecticbrotha[/re]: A tear of pride and patriotism rolls down my cheek at Kenny’s words.
The specificity and spite in this message is striking. Normally, if you don’t pay yer bills, doesn’t the ISP just pull the website and let an error 404 or 410 show up?
Liberty knows no race, sex, creed or color.
Yes, but it also knows that its best friend is a ten or a twenty.
Keep fucking that chicken Kenneth. Keep fucking that chicken.
Why is that white guy kissing the retarded black guy on the head?
[re=416067]DoktorZoom[/re]: Me thinks the ISP tired of answering wingnut threats and put in a special message.
Well, he’s always got his day job in Gnarls Barkley.
Black icon, okay. Crip icon, okay. Conservative icon, okay. Black crip conservative icon? Fuggedaboudit. It’s gotta be a scam.
OK, so a couple months ago we were all supposed to be Kenneth Gladney.
So, who are we to be now;
O’Keefe the pimp?
or
Giles the whore?
Is that a backwards “G” I see carved into Kanye’s head?

I said it before, but Kenny is stupid for trying to hitch his wagon to people that despise his guts. Joe the Plumber can get by with being unemployed; his white conservative brethern will come to his aid at the drop of a dime. Kenny; you’re black; they can’t stand you nor will they ever accept you, and you want to rely on their kindness and their charity? Do you forget what they say about folks like you that accost them with “Brotha’, can you spare a dime?”
Yeah, good luck with that. Oh yeah: dumbass. Also.
Today, we are all delusional Clayton Bigsbys.
Wow. This “movement” had the perfect amount of false outrage and ridiculously saccharine martyr-making with a dash of race thrown in, I was sure wingnut America would have jumped all over it. Surely any group of people capable of somewhat paying attention to Joe the P surely would have fallen all over the fakeness of this Kenneth guy. Perhaps the picture of the guy kissing him on his bald head was too reminiscent of the gehys for the party to support?
All snark aside, this was possibly the most terrible horrible see-through attempt at becoming famous ever wraught upon America, at least the American political arena, the same America which gave us Lady Gaga and KFed. Seriously?? Showing up at a press conference two days after an alleged beating on camera when suddenly he’s turned into an invalid? Who gets kissed on the forehead tenderly like he’s some kinda baby Jesus?! You are grown adults, stop acting like that for fame, it is seriously creepy!!!!!!!! Only in America would people this blatantly awful be rewarded for their efforts, so it is good to see at least this once even America decided they were too crazy for it.
Joe Wilson: 1.8 Million dollars.
Kenneth Gladney: Zero Dollars.
All this love on Wonkette: Priceless.
