Begun This Political Blog War Over Dungeons & Dragons Has
Wednesday, August 20th, 2008
Michael Goldfarb is starting a war, on the Internet! Do you know who Michael Goldfarb is? He’s this cocksucker who recently took a leave of absence from Bill Kristol’s Weekly Standard, where he was online editor, in order to serve on the McCain communications team. He writes a blog on JohnMcCain.com called the McCain Report. It is awful. And a couple of days ago — for the second time this month! — he referred to people at Daily Kos and other liberal outlets as Dungeons & Dragons nerds. And now everyone is freaking and making tee shirts because why not. MORE »

BREAKING: Kos isn’t funny. [
Here is a map someone at Daily Kos made, and it’s not even terrifying. OK, it is obviously terrifying in several ways. It is color-coded by votes in each county — blue for Barry, red for Hillary, green for that white guy who was running like 90 years ago. Florida, appropriately, looks like a barfy member. [
Today is Tax Day, which means a lot of liberals JUST LIKE YOU get to whine about how they are involuntarily funding the War when what they really hate is paying taxes, just like “ordinary Americans.” Join us in our tour of Daily Kos commenters yodelling like Libertarians about how much, and why, they hate taxes. 
The Liberal Internet is exploding with war, famine, and dueling factions of anonymous diarists who type different words about politics. The pro-Clinton diarists at Daily Kos, the famous Netroots blog, launched an Internet Boycott Strike over the weekend, citing the “double standards, the distortions, the hateful, irrational, personal attacks, and the lies about Hillary and her long and distinguished record of public service” at Daily Kos.

In the “Most Overrated Blog” category, Wonkette tied with frienemy Redstate and something called Power Line for fourth place. Fourth place, of course, is the new first place, so huzzah for our internets! The traditional first place for overratedness went to Daily Kos, followed by Instapundit and Hot Air. Clearly these awards are definitive, because Hot Air also won the top spot in “Best Blog Overall.” Go team go! [
Teevee host Bill O’Reilly told his viewers to check out this new thing called the Internets, which apparently harbor insurgents who think Bill O’Reilly’s a cunt. Next thing you know, the Daily Kos libtard website was getting all kinds of hilarious e-mail like this:
