http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/1495259/posts?q=1&&page=51


for comparison, here's their reaction to Lawrence O'Donnell's earlier revelation about Rove's involvement...

2. You say it often enough and the bad dream goes away.
That's my theory.

21. Bwahahaha! Zots for Cash... for another RV for RimJob?
Funny how anybody who dares suggest thatRimJob's budget... well... doesn't make much sense gets zotted.

Note that they use "zot" instead of 'tombstone," probably because the latter word is too difficulr for most FReetardos to spell.

12. I think they say it when they've alerted their moderators to someone
they think is a troll. But I'm not sure of that.

23. I think you're right
at least wikipedia agrees with you.

On the discussion forum Free Republic, ZOT! is the note appended by some moderators to posts that have liberal or anti-Bush content. Comments are then closed and the user who posted the remarks is usually banned.


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zot

Interestingly, it appears that it could have come from the comic book "Zot". (who'd guessed the freepers read comic books :eyes: - not that there's anything wrong with that!) According to the wiki, the main character, Zachary T. Paleozogt, is known as Zot. He' a blond haired, blue eyed hero from an alternate earth problems like poverty, bigotry, and alcoholism which are virtually unknown. (I heavily paraphrased the wiki).

26. It may have come from the old BC comic strip
Which was actually funny about 30 years ago before the cartoonist started bringing jesus into it. "Zot" was the sound an anteaters tongue made when it caught an ant. I can the the hugh loosers and morans over there reading this stupid comic.

3. Seems like the reaction is mostly fingers in both ears,
loudly repeating, "blah blah blah, I can't hear you!" over and over. FR is going to blow up this week as indictments are issued. Get yourself an extra large bucket of popcorn and enjoy the show!

22. They're not mature enough to say "blah blah blah, I can't hear you!"
They just shove you out of their $72,000/quarter sandbox.

7. "series loosers"
the vast majority were just calling the poster a troll, but a few addressed (FR's version anyway) the issue...

Ha ha!

In other news, a source close to Ramsey Clark indicates that there was no connection between Saddam Hussein and terrorism.


<snip>

Now they are trying to criminalize responses to reporters questions as to who sent Wilson?

The Dems talking point of some kind of "retaliation" makes no sense, where IS the retaliation?

<snip>


Stephie's sources told him that??!!! Oh no, W and Cheney both better resign forthwith or they're going to be impeached. Read my tagline troll. Long time ahead for you series loosers...


<snip>

Does kind of show how low the libs have sunk when this is all the best that they can do on Steffi's show...

<snip>


Yep its clear President Bush and Vice President Cheney sat down and said we need to tell the press that Valerie Plame is a CIA operative and she sent her husband ,a critic of their administration to Niger,where he found no yellowcake. So they waited for reporters to call and then they told them the truth hoping it would destroy Valerie's career at the CIA and maybe get her killed.

(This is what you think?)


<snip>

Stephanopolous is doing the same thing the turd in Austin is doing to Delay. Flinging excretia against the wall and seeing if it will stick. Rumormongering....it is the forte of the leftist, liberal, communist, American-hating democrat party. If they say it while it is broadcast over our airwaves, it Must be so. Well, I aint buying that load of horse dung. The left is trying to create a pretext to launch an impeachment proceeding. All they have in their arsenal is the lie. Never, ever believe anything a liberal says. No good thing can come from it.

8. They're so stupid they think Bush was a real oilman for years, when all he
Edited on Sun Oct-02-05 01:41 PM by blm
really did was use his company to make political payoffs for his daddy's friends, like Salem Bin Laden and Pug Winokur.

For almost 3 decades George Bush was a political strategist and dirty trickster who ran WITH Rove and Atwater.

That part of his REAL resume is something the press ignores.

Bush has always been about DIRTY POLITICS and cares little for actuaal policy and good governance.

17. I think this is about "managing expectations". So a report from Fitz
or indictments of aides only - will look really, really good.

Just a guess.

We'll only know the truth when the papers are filed.

25. A couple days ago I said Republicans have no knowledge of history.*
Apparently they have no knowledge of the English language either.

*That was in reference to the Karen Hughs comment that the Constitution said this is a nation "under God".

19. Yikes....
...they are all like little children. Then again, that's an insult to children!

It's just one very bizarre, infantile comment after another.

There's no intellectual curiosity or rational discourse.

Did you notice that NOT ONE of the posters engaged in level-headed discourse about the topic. Can you imagine George Will or other conservative sympathizers responding as these goombahs do?

It's frightening that people like this have found a home in ANY political party. They sound incredibly damaged.

24. Breaking: Miller was protecting Wilson. I read it on Free Republic
So it must be true.

You got my curiosity up, and so I went over to see the Freeperville Plame threads. It's amazing. Intellect dedicated to their own confusion, smokescreens and red herrings. They argue about what color the reporter's socks were, and miss all of the meanings of the stories.

They're all convinced Wilson outed his own wife, but, offer no reasons a CIA operative's husband would want to do that. Here's the first one:

Judith Miller is protecting Joseph Wilson --- that is why she spent 3 months in jail.

Wilson is the architect of the conspiracy with the falsehoods about whom sent him to Africa, to the facts of the uranium, to who revealed his wife's identity as a CIA employee. He is desperately trying to sell this conspiracy nonsense. I believe he is a central player in Joe Wilson's self outing along with Judith Miller and Matt Cooper.


Then, there's the evidence that Fitz has nothing on anyone in the B* administration:

The fact that Fitzgerald agreed to limit Miller's (and others') testimony very narrowly about certain individuals means he may be missing the persons who really leaked Valerie Plame's identity -- as having once a long time ago having done something covert for the CIA. The two individuals who come to mind are Joe Wilson and Valerie Plame!<[/i>

Then, there's the part where we're all treasonous conspirators, so, it's no big deal:

by comitting a series of non-criminal acts
I think everyone is guilty of that at one time or another.


Then, there's the Fitz is just having a good time talking to all these powerful people because he's lonely:

They got nothin. Do you think Rove and Libby would have let Miller and Cooper talk to the grand jury if they had something to hide? Karl is just toying with Fitzgerald. He's probably having a good laugh at all this.

Not that I think Fitzgerald won't try to get an inditement. He's another sleazy political prosecutor just like Ronnie Earl. But he's got nothin.


And, of course, indictment is spelled with 2 e's. Bravo, Freepers. Bravo.
