Please, stop responding to Matt Drudge
Look, people, it's like this. Matt Drudge gets off on the fact that he can attract sooooooooooooooo much attention from his mother's basement, or whatever LoserStation (TM) he uses to churn out his synthetic horse manure. Now he's set his sights on John Kerry. Now, I have yet to see anything from the legitimate media about whatever it is that I refuse to repeat about John Kerry, but it's all over the <i>liberal</i> blogosphere already.

What the F*** are you people (who know who you all are) doing? STOP IT!

STOP IT! STOP IT! STOP IT!

Don't you see, that's what Matt Drudge wants. That's what gives him that <i>special</i> feeling, like he's not the pathetic loser he really is. For God's sake, STOP IT! Ignore this asshole! Your mother must have told you all a million times when you were kids. People who do things like this to attract attention will KEEP ON DOING IT if they succeed.

If I see this on CNN tonight, I'll be blaming all of you, not Fox News, not Drudge himself, but YOU ALL in the liberal blogosphere. You should be doing pushups until I get tired, and you know who you are.

End rant.

1. Blame me. I think Kerry needs to be exposed and dragged back
to loser status anyway.

2. Bill & Monica, Rush and oxycontin.
Both Drudge stories. Don't dismiss him out of hand.

9. Alright, I'm tired. Get up.
At least you get it. It isn't up to me to ignore people who repeat Drudge's bullshit. It's up to everybody here to see that he gets the least amount of press possible, and that means NOT repeating his crap the second you hear it on Fox News.

We can at least try. If CNN picks it up, we can punk them, but good.

5. I agree. Anyone with morals knows what a Whore he and the media
Edited on Thu Feb-12-04 03:54 PM by dArKeR
are. Also they're conspiring to present their fascist views.

By clicking on his site it directly increases his income via advertising, endorsements, guest show appearances...

I don't believe any moral person would post his link here.

6. Any rumor from Matilda Drudge should be taken with a grain of salt.
He doesn't live in Mom's basement. He swishes around South Beach in Miami, gay as a bird while aligning himself with anti-gay hatemongers.

I won't believe it on Drudge's word alone, but he does occasionally come up with (evil) scoops (of trash) with truth in them from time to time. If the smear is true, Kerry should address it candidly, and say once and for all "My intimate life is none of your damn business. You don't like that, vote for Bush and get 4 more years of failure".

11. Drudge is the same as hearing gossip in a bar
It might be worth googling something he says. It might not.

7. Yeah, we're being played.
And I'm pretty disappointed at the DUers who are exploiting this story for their own political causes. ABB is fundamental.

Private Snowball, you're fired. (sir, yes sir - scurries back to bunk) Private Joker, you're the new squad leader.
