I just heard Barnacle call bloggers, "nit wits."
I thought he was smarter than that, but I guess not. :evilfrown:

He's younger than me, but seems to be stuck on stupid as are many who haven't noticed the vast reach and power of the netroots.

Too Bad.

4. He's an ignorant douchebag
I had the TV on for a change this afternoon because Rachel Maddow was doing the show before hardball. But I left it on long enough to hear barnacle bill refer to senator "Obamer"

He sounds like a piss poor Kennedy impersonator or like Mayor Quimby on the Simpsons.

5. Bloggers are the most direct threat to
the corporate media whores. They are afraid of the netroots as is the whole DC establishment. It's jealosy and anger, they are supposed to be the ones bringing us 'the news' the way they want us to hear it.

10. Where did they find that guy? Make me miss Tweety
Well not really. Just gives me a reason to skip MSNBC till 6PM when KO comes on. Now if Rachel Maddow was hosting it'd be a whole different matter.
