1. She is pulling down the curtain big-time!!

Like those ignorant old fucks that watch Fox News will actually care, is another matter.

[Expedite Trucker]

48. They believe whatever the pretty face tells them

[Windy]

2. I tried too....couldn't get in. We need to publicize her expose just aired far and wide! nt

[PerpetuallyDazed]

3. I was wondering why I couldn't access it, LOL

[CLANG]

4. I (almost) felt sorry for the mindless idiots which she eviscerated!

[ColbertWatcher]

7. They're called "turfers" (As in astro"turfers") n/t

[Epiphany4z]

5. wonders if the site will crash

tonight....its gotta be getting a few hits now.....I wish this out there in more places.....

[Gabi Hayes]

6. no such word as {its'}

can't help it

sorry

[Epiphany4z]

8. ya well ill just shrink away and stop posting

jesus im old tired and have diabetic eyes get over it ...sorry

[Gabi Hayes]

13. I'm over it.....when I said sorry, it was as in, sorry--can't help myself.

I had to do it....compulsion

thanks for the thread, btw.

I just hope the rest of the M$M will start revealing the depths to which these creatures will sink

it's pretty obvious, though, that they'll stop at nothing. nothing embarrasses them, and they rely on a combination of a lazy, apathetic public and a coporate culture that will do whatever it takes to maintain/expand power

how much more obvious does it have to get? doesn't matter though, as there are studies posted here that show that these cretins, when presented with clear, provable refutationn of their closely held delusional value/belief systems, dig in, badger-like, and merely STRENGTHEN their insane worldview, ala Saddam/911/WMD, etc.

[Curtland1015]

11. You didn't capitalize "No", and included no punctuation.

Sorry, I'm just being a smart ass.

:P

[BirminghamExaminer]

26. Let me guess.....ex-editor?

[Gabi Hayes]

35. nope....just an occasionally cranky anal retent. usually I don't bother, but sometimes I just can't

help myself

it IS very rare to see {its'}, though. usually just the mixing up of possessive/contraction

anyway, that's more than enough of that. I could go on......

[bullwinkle428]

9. Thanks, troll, for the un-rec. Consider yourself countered.

[Canuckistanian]

24. I always make a point of rec'ing un-rec'ed posts

Unless the post is freeperish.

[KaryninMiami]

10. Wow- that was excellent- she just keeps getting better and better.

Go Rachel!

[Greyskye]

12. Oh my...

[SeeHopeWin]

14. What is this thread about?

[NoSheep]

17. Rachel Maddow just exposed the corporate interests behind the fake grass roots movement

wrecking the health care reform discussion. Proving these aren't just "average Americans" trying to add their voices to the discussion. These are dupes of corporate coaching.

[SeeHopeWin]

20. Thanks...I guess this is a site they put up to direct people there to cause problems?

Who is exactly behind the site? Which corporate? what companies?

[NoSheep]

41. The site was taken down or disabled or plain broken by the time her piece

was over. Among the named were the 7th richest person in the US. Republican speech writers, lobbyists, etc. All disguised as grass roots groups but funded by those financially interested in killing reform and smart enough to know the difference. I'll bet the transcript is up somewhere. Perhaps the whole piece on YouTube. Can you watch video on your computer? (I can now only after a long time saving up to buy something fast enough)

[NoSheep]

42. Check out post #39 for a look at the sites.

[Samantha]

47. There is a man named David Koch who is the 19th richest man

maybe in the world? He owns a corporation that organizes "professional grass roots protests." These people in this organization also orchestrate publicity against environmental efforts to go green.

I guess we can figure out how this man David Koch accumulates so much money.

Saw the excerpt and thought her detail and presentation simply amazing. The above are just some salient points that my tired brain can remember.

One other example she used was Ralph Reed using so-called professionals to recruit Christians to lobby against gambling in certain areas. As it turned out, they used the radial-right to protest in areas where the organization sponsoring the anti-gambling lobbying already had casinos in effect and didn't want the additional competition.

15. Go Rachel! Excellent report on the lies these scumbags are spreading.

[Gman]

16. Click here

and keep clicking here! Recessrally.com

Must be running on someone's old 486 in their mom's basement with dialup connection.

[SeeHopeWin]

18. What is this site?

What does it do?

[BirminghamExaminer]

27. It is the website that incites the ignorant easily riled to violence crowd

to go to tea parties and disrupt town meetings by hanging effigies and shouting down anyone who tries to speak. In other words, it's the website that is against the democratic process.

[Greyskye]

21. I do not advocate spamming recessrally with refresh requests

Seriously, I'm not advocating that.

This thread was meant as an observation only.

[BirminghamExaminer]

28. What the hell would we do without Rachel?

Really the woman is like a bloodhound and we need a hundred of her!

[Greyskye]

30. Amen!

:thumbsup:

[Gman]

36. Well, I guess that's the difference between us...

I do!

[Greyskye]

37. And I respect your activism.

:hi:

[City Lights]

19. "Error establishing a database connection"

Site no worky. :rofl:

[SeeHopeWin]

22. Will I break the Internets if I keep clicking refresh?

[City Lights]

25. You should prolly check with Ted Stevens. I hear he's an eggspurt on the Internet tubes.

;-)

[ColbertWatcher]

31. Did someone just say Ted Stevens!?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EtOoQFa5ug8

[City Lights]

32. LOL!

:thumbsup:

[BirminghamExaminer]

23. I tried to get on the site immediately when she said something about it....

using both my iPhone and Macbook and then my iMac and of course the whole thing is shut down. How sad for the right wing terrorists.

49. Isn't there a law against lying? Somebody, please!!!!

I'm sure they are very proud of themselves. It's anarchy, pure and simple.

[kevinbgoode]

51. I hope someone attends some BLUE DOG meetings

and lets those congresscritters have it . . .

[Critters2]

52. I tried getting onto both the Iowa and Illinois pages. They're down, too.

Looks like Rachel broke the conservative end of the intertubes.

[BirminghamExaminer]

34. It's still not working. What a shame.

:sarcasm:

[Salviati]

38. Hmmm... doesn't seem to be working, guess I'll have to try again

:evilgrin:

[SleeplessInAlabama]

43. I've been trying to get on there all night! (there is no message inside)

[crickets]

40. I *love* the dig she made at the end:

"This is professional, corporate-funded PR. And it should be reported as such."

Go Rachel for shining a light at what is really going on, and shaming all of the journalists still pretending that it's a 'grass roots' campaign.

[ladywnch]

46. I had wondered why the Pubs would consider leaving the country during

recess with the health care debate still burning, but now I know why........they knew it would all be covered by these people and they could claim innocence in all the violence.

[Greyskye]

50. Rachel's on again, and recessrally.com is off again.

Wonder how long they'll be down this time? :shrug:

[barbtries]

53. it's up now

was there something i should have done?
