The Blogger that Was Outraged about Onion Said it was a Joke...
Edited on Wed Jul-12-06 07:43 PM by Ioo
It started on this post
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=364&topic_id=1616165

A RIGHT WING BLOGGER named Peter Shinn of Herndon VA posted outrage at a story on Onion, well we have driven him to stop blogging. He has removed the comments from his blog as well, I guess after 900 "You are a moron" he gave up...

Well he wants us all to think it was just a big joke... He posts

The hate mail continues to flow in like water. The "intellectual left" continues to throw every cuss word in the dictionary at me. (yes, I said "cuss", not "curse", that drives them nuts too...past experience, believe me)

I won't be responding to any more of the hate mail so don't bother writing it. I created a mail rule which will automatically trash it. No, we won't open up our comments to you people who have nothing better to do than fill our comments up with your hate. Funny, how come you members of the "intellectual left" can't say two sentences without cussing?

BUT, you can still post, because he is not that bright, read them they are GREAT...

2. LOL, he refers to the Onion piece as "satire" (in quotes), not satire
As if he thinks the Onion is not really truly satire.

Those damn liberals are just pretendin' to be funny!

4. Pete's famous!
Check out his site meter 5 hits to 100,000 in 3 days...LOL. It's the kind of fame I'd wish on no blogger. He's getting a real education on the issues, probably for the 1st time.

5. What a dork!
And look - there's a Wikipedia page on his pathetic excuse for a blog, complete with commentary on his Onion fiasco. :rofl:
