No plans for Hillary Clinton to attend another SOTU (until she delivers it herself)
Our friend Wess is convinced HRC will resign as Secretary of State sometime in late November, using something in the news at the time as an excuse. Dr. Utopia will be severely weakened by the midterm election losses in 2010, and if she wants to run for the Democrats’ nomination herself in 2012, she’ll need to start building her ground team by January 2011, at the latest.
So, Wess thinks HRC skipping the SOTU this year will be followed up by her not having to be there in 2011 either, so that she doesn’t have to sit there and be seen clapping and agreeing with the insanity on display during a speech like that.
We’re looking forward to seeing Speaker Bachmann standing behind Dr. Utopia, not clapping at all for anything, while Joe Biden sits there, wondering when he gets his next serving of ice cream, trying to stay awake.
Sometimes Wess is in his own little world with some of this stuff, but you know what, in our gut we think he’s right this time.
We just don’t see her being at the State of the Union next year, either. We’re thrilled she won’t be out helping any Liberals win re-election this year, because being at State means she’s out of politics for the moment and does not have to do this.
Also, since Chelsea is getting married this summer, the Clintons have a wonderful excuse not to do much of anything for anyone, as they will all be busy planning Chelsea’s big day.
Perfect timing on that.
Then, there’s always the rebuilding in Haiti to keep President Clinton too busy to campaign for people like Chuck Schumer, whom we bet the Clintons want to lose in a big, big way. As do we.
Do you think she leaves the State Department in November or December of 2010? The more we think about it, December seems like the month she’d resign in. That way, she has Christmas as an excuse to want to spend more time with the family and relax with the holidays coming.
Then, in January, before Sarah Palin announces her own candidacy (which we suspect will be on February 6th, 2011 — which is Ronald Reagan’s 100th birthday), HRC could announce her decision to run in 2012. Maybe by then Utopia will be so low in the polls he’s just come out and say he won’t seek a second term. It’s pretty close to that already.
What think you?
Question: Have you heard of an Elise Harding, from Daily Kos and Organizing for America?
A little bee told us we need to look into someone named Elise Harding, who worked for Organizing for America, was on the ground for Obama in Iowa, and writes at Daily Kos as “Elise”.
Who is she?
What is she up to?
Can she be linked back to any of the attacks on PUMAs?
We never heard of her until about 10 minutes ago, but apparently she’s living here in Chicago too.
Does “Elise Harding” ring any troll bells?
The Conversation Continues
Time for Hillary 2012 tee shirts yet?
An Open Letter to Anyone Attacked By Trolls and PUMA Hunters
To anyone who has been attacked by anonymous Obama supporters,
On January 20th, 2010, the Obama supporters of the Left declared open war on us, on a personal level.
This was originated by a blogger we believe is named Eamonn Sean O’Sullivan, writing from Birmingham, England, and using a site called TheBigotBasher.wordpress.com to post libel, defamation, and statements that amount to tortious interference of contracts about us as individuals. These attacks have inhibited our ability to find employment here in Chicago, and they’ve put us at risk of physical violence. The attacks made by TheBigotBasher were immediately picked up by The Daily Kos, DemocraticUnderground, and other sites on the Left to give the attacks more exposure..and create more damage for us on a personal level.
This attack, like other attacks we have witnessed on PUMAs (Democrats who do not support Obama, who self-identify under the banner of People United Means Action), appears to be coordinated by a cell of Obama supporters who routinely post at sites such as Rumproast, BettyCracker, Snarkopolitan, and others. The standard plan of attack by these Obama supporters is:
(1) Someone like BigotBasher libels someone as a racist, believing, incorrectly, that because he is in England that American law cannot touch him and he cannot be charged with libel, and held financially responsible for the employment he has cost us.
(2) Other Obama supporters, here in the US, wait for BigotBasher to post something overseas. Then, these allies of his repost his libel and character defamation posts at the likes of Daily Kos and Democratic Underground, which refuse to take these posts down despite repeated requests for them to do so.
(3) The next wave of attack is for other Obama supporters to head over to Daily Kos and Democratic Underground, where they comment on the posts that are linked to TheBigotBasher, adding their own statements that the people being called racists by BigotBasher should be beaten, should be ruined, should be attacked in their homes, etc.
The people committing these attacks coordinate all of this on message boards, and through posts at places like Rumproast, BettyCracker, Snarkopolitan, etc.
They’ve been at this since 2008. The root of this behavior rests with Obama himself, when he ordered his followers to “get in the faces” of all who opposed him. We believe the Obama campaign, through the expertise of David Axelrod’s own astroturfing operation, set up the original hit squads to take down anyone who opposed The Lightbringer.
Whether Organizing for America and Axelrod are still directing day-to-day troll operations or not is a matter of opinion — but that will, too, be revealed in time no doubt.
To our knowledge, no coordinated effort has ever been launched to determine if the people attacking all PUMAs individually are communicating with one another, and whether they are receiving any help or direction, on any level, from the likes of David Axelrod, David Plouf, or Rahm Emanuel in the White House itself.
TheBigotBasher gave us reason to investigate all of this on January 20th when he lobbed racists accusations against us, and committed libel on his site.
Everyone who assists Eamonn Sean O’Sullivan with the attacks he’s engaged in is a co-defendent in our eyes, and will be treated as such as we bring legal action against him, to seek remedy for the damages he has caused us.
We intend to use every research tool we can to systemically identify and expose every troll that’s been libeling, defaming, and harassing Hillary Clinton supporters…and will employ all means possible to determine whether or not these people are in any way being directed by the DNC and Obama inner circle themselves.
We believe, as these connections are revealed, the parties involved in coordinating these attacks across state lines and national borders could be charged under RICO statutes. Anyone assisting them at the DNC would also be culpable. If anyone in elected office is in any way connected with personal attacks upon American private citizens, then voters need to know about this involvement before the next election.
If you are an Obama supporter who has called anyone a racist or engaged in attacks upon that person, and you are reading this, we suggest you take down everything you did to attack that person. If you are a regular at Daily Kos or DemocraticUndergrond, we suggest you advise your cohorts there to cease and desist their libelous attacks, lest they join Mr. O’Sullivan in Birmingham as a co-defendent as this case moves forward.
We are receiving help with this stand against PUMA hunters from the most unexpected and encouraging places.
As we talked about on Breitbart yesterday, there are a great many layers to all of this. There are many Obama supporters involved. This has been going on for some time. Many people’s lives and businesses have been ruined because they did not support Obama.
The American voters need to hear this story. These attackers need to be exposed, just as they outed many anonymous Hillary bloggers. The difference is, once identified and exposed, instead of being menaced (the way these Obots attacked Hillary supporters), these people will be prosecuted.
The Left keeps doubling down on these attacks, because, once again, there’s never been a group effort to expose and tie all these people together, and then back to the DNC. It’s a Herculean effort, with many twists and turns, and hundreds, if not thousands, of trolls hiding under many, many rocks.
The task is daunting, to be sure.
But, we feel up to it. TheBigotBasher called us “amateur Sherlock Holmeses”. We see ourselves more as The Three Investigators, really. But, if you want to go with Holmes, then we’ll draw your attention to the thousands of Watsons we’ve got..such a great many eyes that are now focused on all of these trolls, finding new clues every day, so the dossier we build against the Left gets bigger and bigger every time we talk about this.
This is about much, much more than just TheBigotBasher, Eamonn Sean O’Sullivan, in Birmingham, England libeling us.
This is about Eamonn Sean O’Sullivan crossing the line and finally breaking the unicorn’s back, creating a rallying point at which ALL PUMAs who have been attacked join forces and expose and prosecute all trolls, and whoever is assisting them within Obama circles.
We will take this all the way up to the White House, if we have to.
Gladly.
And whatever happens, trolls, just remember who you have to thank for all this attention: Eamonn Sean O’Sullivan, over at TheBigotBasher.wordpress.com.
He’s the troll that put all PUMA Hunters on so very many new sets of radar.
Lookig forward to finding out more about all of you and how you operate,
Team Hillary, at large
PHOTOSHOP CHALLENGE: Troll Dissection
h/t Chrissy the Hyphenated
************
Anyone up to a photoshop challenge?
Thanks to Maggie for the great suggestion of running a “Hall of the Mountain King” YouTube whenever we talk about dissecting troll comments…but we’d also love a photoshop of a troll dissection itself.
How about using the “Operation” board game graphic…and then showing various things being removed from trolls.
What should those things be?
In operation, they remove “funny bones”, “butterflies in stomach”, etc.
With trolls, what are the tactics they employ that can be creatively identified and graphically represented? What makes them tick?
What should be in the “Troll Dissection” image we can use from here on out whenever we are taking these comments apart, line by line, to show moderates, independents, and conservatives how to beat the Left at their own Psy-Ops games?
TROLL DISSECTION 101: Can You Spot And Counter Troll Comments?
Troll Dissection 101 is an ongoing series where we’ll take you through troll droppings we find, and give you our take on what the DNC and Obama propagandists were trying to accomplish with them.
What follows is a comment caught today in spam filters, with our breakdown of the psychology employed in it. We’d love to say the DNC and Obama propagandists behind these things incorrectly think Americans are so stupid they’ll fall for this stuff, but in reality, a good many people DO fall for this stuff. The problem, we’ve found, is that Americans in general are just SO NICE. They are good, honest, decent people who approach the world thinking all those they encounter are good, honest, and decent people too. That’s why trolls are always “given the benefit of the doubt” and, largely, why people like BigotBasher, Wonk Hussein, Rumproast, Daily Kos, Snarkopolitan, DemocraticUnderground, and others on the Left are allowed to keep doing the things they do to attack people. Most people who are attacked don’t want to fight back, because fighting back is unpleasant, just as thinking about trolls deliberately trying to trick and demoralize people is unpleasant as well. It’s truly creepy knowing there is a legion of Obama supporters working always behind the scenes in Psy-Ops to bamboozle the blogosphere, but that’s precisely what’s going on.
TODAY’S TROLL DROPPING:
Listen, I was a DIE hard Hillary supporter too, and I was so mad at the tactics that I did a whole report on Obama supporters. But the fact of the mattter is still that we would be in worse shape with the republicans in office. I am NOT a huge Obama supporter, but I will get behind him and HOPE that he will overturn DOMA. I know he’s thrown gays under teh bus, but what exactly are you trying to do- elect the people who will give you NO chance of equality? Come on.
(1) Listen, I was a DIE hard Hillary supporter too, and I was so mad at the tactics that I did a whole report on Obama supporters.
First and foremost, the troll needs to establish a connection with the site this troll has been assigned to. So, since this site is HillBuzz, and we are Team Hillary guys, the troll has to pretend he is a Hillary person too. Think of this as the troll putting on a bad disguise it stole from a garbage can in the alley behind an abandoned costume shop. ”Tee-hee! Me find mask. Wear mask, fool peoples. Never know me troll now! Tee-hee-hee!”. John Travolta and Tom Cruise are more convincing as heterosexuals than these trolls are as Hillary supporters.
The “all-caps” on the word DIE is really weird. So many on the Left are emotionally and mentally unstable, that it’s classic for them to slip little, odd things into their droppings that only they think are funny. We’ve never seen anyone all-caps the letters D-I-E in “diehard” before, and have only seen the word spelled “Die Hard” when used in reference to the awesomeness of John McClain’s adventures at Nokatomi Plaza. So, this could be a sick troll jab at Hillary, or her supporters, wanting somebody to DIE. Hence, the caps…hence the spacing between the D-to-the-I-to-the-E-to-the-space-to-the-hard.
The next part is strange because this troll said it was so made at the tactics it did a whole report on Obama supporters. What’s weird is that it’s normal convention to link to documents referred to like this. If you wrote a report, where is it? Why didn’t you link to that report. We bet you stayed up all night working on it, even when you got so tired you started using the blunt end of the crayons, and tears were streaming down your face as you realized you were missing American Idol, but you just couldn’t pull away from the kitchen table to watch it until your important report was finished. All the other trolls were be-bopping away to glorified karaoke in another part of the cave, while you, burdened like Atlas and confined like Prometheus, HAD TO FINISH THE REPORT.
What the troll is doing here is establishing a connection to Hillary supporters and saying something that makes an uninformed reader believe it, too, does not like Obama. So, everything it says later is supposed to carry more weight so you will pay attention.
(2) But the fact of the mattter is still that we would be in worse shape with the republicans in office.
This is classic troll logic. Establish (1) above, then immediately add BUT to it. It’s like they design for Apple Bottom Jeans. Always putting a big but into something.
Liberals love stating things as fact that aren’t. It is not a matter of fact that we would be in worse shape with the republicans in office. This is CLASSIC troll dropping. Out of everyone who ran for president in 2008, we ended up with the worst possible person in office, surrounded by the worst possible advisors, with the worst possible Senate enabling these people. It is a matter of fact that we would be in much better shape today with Hillary Clinton as our president. That’s as true as anything. We believe we’d also be in much better shape with Sarah Palin in office, even as VP and not president yet. McCain, as president, would never have engaged in the lunacy of this administration regarding reckless spending and the Rationing Bill. That’s a matter of fact.
It’s fascinating the troll tacitly admits how bad a president Obama really is, though. If you have to talk about how much worse things would be with someone else, then you aren’t selling your brand well. You don’t hear Coca Cola advertising as, “Yah, this stuff tastes like battery acid, but Pepsi is much worse, so drink Coke, otay? Thanks. Bye!!!”. That’s brand management 101, people.
(3) I am NOT a huge Obama supporter, but I will get behind him and HOPE that he will overturn DOMA.
“I’m not a raging alcoholic, but I do like to have a few drinks before breakfast and think it’s okay to have spent my week’s pay by the time the liquor store closes every Friday”.
“I’m not gay, but I will buy any magazines with photos of Jake Gyllenhaal dressed up in his santa hat and a g-string from the movie Jarhead because I am fascinated with Desert Storm and support the military and also approve of Christmas and like the color red”.
“I’m not a troll, but I often use all-caps to make certain words stand out that I think are cute, like HOPE, which is a nod to the fact that I am an Obama troll, but by using so blatant an Obama troll go-to like HOPE, I’m being ironic and cheeky since people would assume a real troll wouldn’t be so blatant, so therefore I am not a real troll because I am so blatant, so thus I’m playing 11th dimensional chess with you right now because I went to Harvard and you didn’t”.
The DOMA reference is just really strange because we can’t remember the last time we talked about it on this site. Occasionally we talk about DADT, because we love the military and DADT is in the news again because of the SOTU address. But DOMA? That sure was random. Almost as if today’s troll directions from the DNC were to go out and talk about DOMA, and how Obama will overturn DOMA, even though in the end he really won’t.
(4) I know he’s thrown gays under teh bus, but what exactly are you trying to do- elect the people who will give you NO chance of equality? Come on.
Keith Olbermann has another meltdown — calls anyone criticizing Obama a RAAACIST!
H/t Daily Caller
Head over to The Daily Caller for the full article.
This is what the Left does.
If you do not agree with this administration, in any way, then you are a RAAACIST!. Case closed.
Because the only thing the Left thinks about is race. They are obsessed with it. Note Chris Matthews admitting that during the SOTU the other night, he, in his own words, “forgot Obama was a black man for an hour”.
That says much more about Matthews, and Liberals like him, than it does about Dr. Utopia. The fact is, Liberals treat black people like their favorite pets. They fawn over Obama the way Paris Hilton goes on for hours about Tinkerbelle or whatever else she’s carrying around in her powder pink purse that day. Clearly, neither Matthews nor Hilton see the objects of their affection as equals. They delight in everything their pets do, (“Tinkerbelle made big poopies!”, “Obama gave a speech!”), but sporadically, their true feelings about their “best friends” come to the surface (“Stupid dog ate my Manolos!”, “Forgot Obama was a black man for an hour!”).
We’re fascinated by what the black community really thinks of Liberals like Matthews.
Do they realize how condescending these Libs are to them, and how little they must think of black Americans if everything they do has to be about race, every mundane thing accomplished has to be praised as “historic and unprecedented!”?
It seems Olbermann, Matthews and their ilk have an incredibly low opinion of black people, and perhaps as cover for that, they love nothing more than screaming RAAACIST! at the top of their lungs before anyone shouts it at them, first.
