Question of the Day: Would you want to go all-in for Michelle Bachmann in her re-election race?
In thinking about the races we want to get involved in for November, we realize how much we love Michelle Bachmann.
This is where the trolls all come out and we get new waves of hatemail with heads exploding. Oh, and then this broken record plays, “How can you like Hillary Clinton, Sarah Palin, AND Michelle Bachmann? You just like to support women! Blah blah gibberish!”.
Listen, we support people who are awesome. Sometimes, they are smokin’ hot and awesome, like Scott Brown. McAwesome, in fact.
If you pay any attention to what we write about and who we support, there’s a common theme running: all of the people we go to bat for love America more than anything in the world.
Hillary.
Palin.
Bachmann.
Brown.
Three of them happen to be Republicans, which says more about Democrats at large than it does about us. The current Democrat officeholders might love something in this world, but it’s not the US of A.
Michelle Bachmann should become Speaker Bachmann in 2011, taking that gavel away from Pelosi but good (or, botox bad, as the case may be for Pelosi. Botox verrrrrrrry bad, Queen Nancy).
What are your thoughts?
Pelosi’s painted a big target on Bachmann.
Liberals painted a big target on us this week.
We’re pumped up and ready to kick butt on all fronts, so thwarting the DNC’s crusade against Bachmann seems like a good use of our energy.
At most, we think we could handle 5 races well. That’s a race for each of us, plus Panda, who has ADD. So, it’s really 4 races and a half, thereabouts.
We thought we’d commit to all Senate races, but we can’t let Bachmann battle the orcs, trolls, and goblins alone.
We. Love. This. Woman.
Who out there wants to help her?
Reinforcements are arriving
Honest to goodness, the people attacking us are in REAL trouble now.
We just got this message from our dear friend Abbey:
I’m on the case. I see all the excrement those trolls have written about you in a Yahoo search. I wanna kick some butt!! My Kevin is NOT evil!! Fill me in and set me loose!!!
We had to share that, since it caused huge cheers to rise up here at Buzzquarters.
Ain’t nobody in their right mind messes with Abbey.
NOBODY.
We don’t even get out of line around her. Abbey means business.
And, we know we said this already a few moments ago, but from the bottom of our hearts, thank you all so much for all your support during this awful time. Every one of you that has written in with kind words and told us how you’ve been praying for us means so much. We read them all aloud to Kevin here, and make him realize that there’s a world of people out there behind him, who will help see this through.
We will take down the people who launched this attack. We will prosecute them. We will find a way to knock all of that, as Abbey put it, excrement off the Internets.
We will, to quote the remarkable and inspiring Abbey again, KICK BUTT.
Bless all of you, seriously. You are amazing. Never in our lives did we think we’d be under such attack…and never in our lives could we have imagined we’d have such reinforcements.
We are blessed and honored and so grateful.
John Edwards could be going to prison soon
“You sure ’nuff got purty hair and a purty mouth, former Senator Edwards. From now on, I’m gonna calls you SALLY”.
According to the last remaining investigative journalism outfit, The National Enquirer, Edwards is also refusing to pay the medical bills for his lovechild, sweet little Frances Quinn Druck Hunter Edwards.
His mistress, whom Elizabeth Edwards knew about but allowed her husband to run for president in 2008 to be a spoiler to benefit Dr. Utopia anyway, has been forced to hire lawyers to get all up in Edwards’ grill for dental care money.
This is the same John Edwards who ran shrieking through the halls of the Beverly Hills Hilton, crying, at 3 in the morning when The Enquirer cornered him on a visit to see his lovechild. Edwards, instead of manning up and admitting what he did, cowered in a bathroom in the basement, shouting “Occupied! Occupied! OCCUPADO!” at the top of his lungs, while burly hotel security men, Duff and Sanchez, came racing to rescue him.
“You are my bodyguard,” was all Edwards could be heard muttering, as he was lifted into the air and carried to the security office in Duff’s arms.
Kind of sort of like this:
Thank You All For Your Support
We wanted to take another moment to thank all of you for your support as we continue to sleuth the identities of TheBigotBasher and those at Rumproast.com, Bettycracker, Stupidpumas, Daily Kos, DemocraticUnderground and other altars to Dr. Utopia who engaged in a coordinated personal hit job on us this week.
Clearly, this has been the center of our attention, as we try to expunge these attacks everywhere we can — so that our livelihood, future employment opportunties, personal relationships, emotional health, and other vital interests are not permanently adversely impacted by the libelous slurs made against us on the personal level by Obama supporters.
Welcome to Hope and Change, people. They’ve done this to us, and they’ll probably do it to you at some point in the future, since calling innocent people RAAACISTS! is what they do. They are one-trick goblins. But, they are not going to get away with it this time.
As soon as we realized TheBigotBasher attacked us, we turned to our dear friend and big sis Cynthia Yockey, as she is one of the most informed and knowledgeable people we know. We asked her what to do, and told her we were scared, because almost as soon as the attacks hit, we started losing freelance jobs we counted on for the next month. “Don’t worry, this has happened to people before because this is what the Left does to those who don’t agree with them. The Left just calls them racists and tries to ruin their lives. But, if you are willing to put yourself out there and fight, then I’ll sound the alarm that we all need to stick together and fight back when attacks on people like you, Stacey McCain, Tammy Bruce, and others happen”.
Cynthia was such a good friend. We owe her so much.
She instantly put us in touch with others who have been attacked by the Left like this, with false accusations of racism posted at obscure Leftist Obama-worship sites and then distributed with ruthless efficiency by Daily Kos and DemocraticUnderground.
Behind the scenes this week, we’ve been pouring through countless articles on libel that have been sent to us, as well as learning everything we can about the activities of Rumproast, TheBigotBasher, Snarkopolitan, Daily Kos, StupidPumas, and DemocraticUnderground. There are so many clues to tie together, and so many horrible things these people have collectively done to PUMAs, in particular, that we’ve been overwhelmed.
So, we appreciate all the help you have also given us in sorting out these clues and getting closer every day to establishing an airtight libel case against every Leftist who attacked us. Every single person spreading that racist charge against us will be a co-defendent in the action that’s to come. If you are reading this, and you posted our names or photos ANYWHERE, you best take that down immediately, or you’ll end up on the defendents list too.
Homos ain’t playing, folks. We mean business.
Were grateful to everyone out there who has taken this opportunity to hit back against the Left in support of us. Here are just a few of you that we’re so grateful to, with thanks to Cynthia for compiling this supporters’ list for us.
We swear, if ever the Left attacks any of these people, we’ll come to their aid in Justice League style lickety-split as well. If we stick together, we will defeat the Left. If we don’t support one another, the Left will destroy us all one by one.

When it happened in September 2009, I was one of the first to stand up for Stacy, which is how I learned that we really can make tactics like these feel like spitting into the wind for the Left — soon they were whining about how many bloggers were vouching for him!

PHOTOSHOP CHALLENGE: We need a chart that makes the relationships of trolls attacking us readily understandable
This is an unusual photoshop challenge — which also appeals to people out there who have great organizational and analytical skills.
For the past few days, you’ve helped us assemble clues as to who is attacking us on the Left. This pertains to the January 20th, 2010 libelous claims made against one of us personally on the site TheBigotBasher.wordpress.com, which gave h/t (hat tips) to places like Rumproast.com and Stupidpumas.com, while Daily Kos and DemocraticUnderground spread these libelous attacks against us, and encouraged their readers to call us, on the individual and personal level, RAAACIST! in as many places as possible.
They outed one of our real names. They used a real photo of one of us. They called that person a racist, knowing full well his current and future employment would be impacted by this charge, and that his personal safety in a city like Chicago would be jeopardized.
The problem with so many clues is that it’s hard to piece the puzzle together to figure out what is going on and who is involved.
Here are threads that have a great deal of clues in them:
Cleveland Plain Dealer Finds More Ellie Lights
What impact does being called a racist have on a private citizen?
Another example of the Left attacking PUMAs
Can Trolls and PUMA Hunters be tracked back to the DNC itself?
Monday Open Thread: January 25th, 2010
Who is Sean O’Sullivan and what websites does he run?
Sunday Open Thread: January 24th, 2010
Saturday Open Thread: January 23rd, 2010
Friday Open Thread: January 22nd, 2010
We need help creating a diagram of what’s been happening, who’s involved, and how this all is tied back to the DNC and Obama White House. That last bit is the hardest nut to crack, but we believe our sleuthing will indeed get there.
Visually, if we can chart out the sites involved and what they did, we can use this as a case study of how these attacks are coordinated and planned, and that’s the first step towards developing an effective counter-punch to use against these goblins in the future.
The chart of everything that’s been happening, and everyone involved, is crucial to our ability to write up a complete report on all this — and that report is needed not just for the litigation against the parties involved, no matter what country they are in, but will also serve as a primer for anyone else out there who is attacked like this.
In short, we can do the legwork, set up the battle plan, and write a chapter in the Anti-Alinsky Playbook so that whenever these attacks happen, people don’t have to keep re-inventing the wheel.
We’d like to collect all clues in this one thread, so anything else you can add about the attackers, please do so in comments here. This way, we won’t have to keep scouring through many threads to get to the meat of what’s needed. It can all be in one place.

UPDATE: Here are more clues:
STUPIDPUMAS Twitter feed has mysteriously disappeared as of 1/25/10. Here’s a link to the Twitter search that shows it existed until recently. Why would this just mysteriously disappear if the people behind StupidPumas weren’t in on the attacks on us?
****
This is the current WHOIS for the site Rumproast.com — it was scrubbed and changed just a few days ago. ANOTHER mysterious coincidence.
The owner of Rumproast is a man in New York named Kevin K*******. We’ll just call him Kevin K.
We have the registration for Rumproast before Kevin K. changed it to private just a few days ago. It looks like this:
XX-XX XX Street #C21
Sunnyside, NY 11104

Obviously, we have all the info that’s blanked out as “X” above. We have screenshots of all this in the dossier we are building linking all of these PUMA Hunters together.
They banded together to attack PUMAs…so let them join together as defendants in all things to come.
********
Rumproast.com was h/t (hat tipped) by TheBigotBasher.wordpress.com as the source of the attack against us. In the January 20th post TheBigotBasher.wordpress.com made (which we won’t link to), at the very bottom was the credit given to Rumproast for launching this attack.
********
Kevin K. used to work for a now-defunct dot.com called Hot Socket. His linked-in profile says he works for a large advertising firm. The same one Michelle Malkin identified as being behind the astroturf attacks on Sarah Palin in 2008.
Isn’t that a mysterious coincidence?
********
A lot of times, when Kevin K. writes on the Internet and maligns people, he uses this quote:
Most Certainly,

“TheBigotBasher” appears to be a 39 year old man in England named Sean O’Sullivan, who goes by the name “seanosul” a lot of times on the Internet when he too maligns people
http://digg.com/users/seanosul

Sean O’Sullivan is obsessed with video games, politics, and consoles.
Here he is on some dating websites in the UK, one of which it appears he lies about his age to score with British guys who will be really disappointed when a 39 year old queen shows up when they were expecting a chicken delivery.
http://fy.netlog.com/seanosul/guestbook
Interestingly enough, it appears this guy’s name MIGHT actually legally be Eamonn Sean O’Sullivan, but he (for obvious reasons) goes by “Sean” instead of Eamonn.
We believe that’s why this guy thinks no one can ever find him, because he thinks people don’t know his real name. Well, his real name may very well be Eamonn. Or possibly Rumplestiltskin.
*********
“TheBigotBasher” also posts sometimes as UKforDems on various boards where he maligns and libels people. Here’s where the connection is made between BigotBasher and UKforDems.
When you Google “UKforDems,” you see the name is all over the Democratic Underground, No Quarter, New Agenda— PUMA hunting.
And here’s a “Sean” on Stupidpumas showing his response to people on No Quarter, under the name “UKforDems” http://stupidpumas.wordpress.com/2009/02/02/stupid-puma-physics/ “sean”…ok.
Thus, Sean O’Sullivan (who is probably Eamonn Sean O’Sullivan) goes under the names: bigotbasher, Sean, seanosol, and UKforDems.
******
Here’s more weirdness attacking Darragh Murphy:
http://stupidpumas.wordpress.com/2009/02/05/ur-stupid/
*******
Here’s his YouTube channel: note the Simpsons videos and things related to Hillary Clinton, Harriet Christian (a famous PUMA we love), and PUMAs. Seanosul is obsessed with “The Simpsons” and writes about them frequently all around the Internets.
*******
*******
Here’s Seanosul writing asking questions about Depression.
*******
Apparently, Seanosul works for the British Government. We wonder if they know what he is up to all day.
Sean O’Sullivan says his job title is: “Benefits Consultant, Independent Local Authority Contractor, West Midlands” which makes sense because he described that kind of work on his windows live blog, and it’s his county. I don’t know, it sounds like social work/ government job/ welfare social worker sort of.
*******
*******
Here he is saying Republicans have Asperger’s.

Here’s where Seanosul talks about how much he hates lesbians:

Sean’s birthday is January 13th.
He was from midlands area of England, lived in Brum (short for Birmingham).
*********
On January 25th, Kevin K. from Rumproast started scrubbing as much of his information off the Internets as possible. We took screengrabs of all of this before he could delete it all.
*********
Kevin K. once used the names “Tooney Bin” and “Balloon Juice” on the Internets.

UPDATE: 1/27/10:
We’re asking all PUMA sites that were ever attacked by TheBigotBasher or any of his cohorts who post at places like Stupidpumas, BettyCracker, Daily Kos, Rumproast, and other sites to share the information they have on these people.
Here’s more that we found today on TheBigotBasher. This guys uses many different email addresses and posts under many names. We’re starting to be able to match his IP address used to attack people, libel them, and harass them on multiple boards. The same addresses keep popping up, with all roads leading back to TheBigotBasher.
UKforDems
92.2XX.XXX.19
bildo@yahoo.co.uk
98.XX.XXX.XX9
90.XX.XXX.84
ukchap@bugmenot.com
UPDATE: 1/27/10
Here are some quotes:
“Show up at his house”
“bloody his nose”
“find out where he lives and teach him a lesson”
It goes on and on and on.
The MO on these attacks is this:
(1) BigotBasher posts more racist slurs against us on his site on WordPress
(2) Daily Kos then picks up that post and get its members to encourage people in Chicago to find us, beat us, bloody our noses, and ultimately kill us
(3) Next, DemocraticUnderground and the rest run the Kos post, reporting it as news and fact
(4) The Left, thus, has activated its troll and goon squads to commit physical violence against those it has targeted
This has been going on every day since January 20th, the one year anniversary of the beginning of “The Golden Age of Hope and Change”

The Battle of Boystown: HillBuzz heads to the Andrea Shea King Show
H/t the fabulous Mizz Jodee
The Left declared all out war on us January 20th – the way they’ve declared war on other PUMAs before. They nuked us with the same RAAACIST! charge they use against everyone else, as well. Anyone who does not fall to their knees in worship of “The Lighbringer” is, of course, a RAAACIST to the Left.
Well, this time these nuts made a critical error: they pulled this stuff on a bunch of gay guys in Boystown who aren’t afraid to fight back. We’ve turned Buzzquarters into a war room. Our walls are now covered with index cards, on which we write every clue you send us pertaining to the identity of the people who are attacking us. It’s a lot of detective work, and it’s complicated sleuthing, but we’re piecing together who is behind all of this.
We’re 99% certain we’ve identified two of the people involved, dead to rights. Confirmation of this fact has come in the form of these people deleting their sites, blocking their Linkedin profiles, etc. Why do that in the last few days if you’re not guilty?
We’re heading to the Andrea Shea King radio show at 9pm EST on Thursday to talk about what we’ve uncovered about these people, so if you tune in, you’ll get a live update from us.
We’ll also talk about how this libelous attack on us is part of the Democrats’ larger, insane strategy to destroy anyone who does not agree with them. That includes us, MODERATE DEMOCRATS, who blindly supported the party our entire lives — until the Liberals and radicals took over in 2008 to install Dr. Utopia as president.
We don’t see the strategic value in hitting at us. Despite what Donna Brazile and Howard Dean said, Democrats DO in fact need moderates. As someone else noted a week ago, Reagan Democrats are Hillary Democrats are Scott Brown Democrats are Tea Party Democrats.
That’s us.
The Battle of Boystown will be fought tooth and nail, we promise. We’ll continue to update you on what’s going on, as more than anything, this attack presents an opportunity to create a case study in how to track down attackers on the Left, how to file libel suit against them, how to identify whom they are working for at the DNC, etc.
If everyone who is attacked did this, these trolls, orcs, and goblins would be shut down lickety-split.
And, just because these people are in Britain, it doesn’t mean they can get away with this, either.
As Churchill said, kind of, “We’ll fight them on the beaches. We’ll fight them on Michigan Avenue and Halsted. We’ll fight them in Birmingham, England. We’ll fight them in New York. We’ll fight them on every shore, in every land, wherever they squat in their mothers’ basements trying to destroy people’s lives because we dare to exercise our free speech in opposition to their “Lightbringer”. And we will remain snarky and fabulous as we do it, thank you very much.”
Panda contributed that last bit, because, well, that’s Panda. “Those trolls are so f***ed and they don’t even know it. Messed with the wrong guys this time!”.
You tell ‘em, Panda.
“I totally just did”.
LISTEN TO US THURSDAY JANUARY 28th, at 9pm EST/8pm CST.

QUESTION: Why are Democrats suddenly talking about "the birth certificate"?
We have a theory on this that we’ll flesh out later, but for now we’d like your own thoughts on this: why are Democrats suddenly talking about Dr. Utopia’s birth certificate?
In short, we believe Liberals are trying to drive a wedge between the Tea Party Activists and the GOP by using the MSM to paint Tea Partiers as “birthers” — namely, people who do not believe Dr. Utopia was born in the US (there are two camps of birthers: Kenya Birthers and Canada Birthers).
The reason Dr. Utopia refuses, to this day, to release his original birth certificate, issued and given to his mother in 1961 when he was born, is clear to us: on his birth certificate, his father’s race is listed as Arab, and his father’s religion is listed as Muslim. His mother’s race is White and her religion is most likely Atheist (but could have been a default to whatever her parents were, since at 18, we don’t know if Stanley Dunham was an atheist yet or not).
The Utopia campaign was genius in using the MSM to cloud the real reason he’s keeping his birth certificate secret.
We believe Axelrod and company have been behind spreading the “birther” rumors, to distract from the real reason that document is kept hidden (namely, that it lists Obama’s father as an Arab Muslim). The Utopia campaign believes Americans will see Dr. Utopia as a liar if this truth came out…so, they preemptively mitigate that risk by painting anyone who talks about the birth certificate as a lunatic.
In 1961, there’s no other way Utopia’s father would have been listed on an official state document. We’ve seen birth certificates from that era in Hawaii. The father and mother’s race and religion are recorded. The modern, computer printouts of these forms delete that information, for whatever reason. But, the actual, physical, completed by the hospital and issued before the baby is released form Stanley Dunham got has Utopia recorded as the son of an Arab Muslim.
You can discuss amongst yourselves why Utopia has devoted so much effort to hiding this fact. It’s nothing you wouldn’t know about his father if you read the two books William Ayers ghost-wrote for him. But, it has always felt that Utopia’s handlers believe that birth certificate coming to light, being distributed, and being seen by millions would doom him in some way.
To us, it’s proof that he lies about almost everything. Dating back all the way to the day he was born.
In recent days, papers that have never talked about the birth certificate before have started talking about it…at the same time Democrats are doing their level best to attack the Tea Party Movement, and many think drive a wedge between them and Republicans in general.
The Tea Partiers put Scott Brown over the top in Massachusetts. They will be a powerful force in the 2010 elections. Democrats are scare out of their minds. And when Liberals get scared, they lash out and attack.
What do you think is going on?
