Send Kevin Some Hugs

Posted on April 13, 2011 by Kathleen Gee // Hillbuzz

Kevin DuJan, Editor and Publisher | Hillbuzz.org

The Hillbuzz community is awe-inspiring. Recently, when Kevin asked for help with his friend Cassie, Hillbuzz readers sent her (and Kevin) prayers and advice from all over the world. And Kevin is convinced that those prayers have saved Cassie’s life–and probably others, too.

As one of the team who has been working to launch Hillbuzz 3.0, I’d like to again come to the Hillbuzz community and ask you for prayers and support.

Though Kevin couldn’t be more excited about taking Hillbuzz to the next level, this whole process has been pretty exhausting and stressful for him. He’s also a little overwhelmed with the complexity of the new site (it’s waaaaay complicated behind the scenes, and Kevin’s still figuring his way around.)

When Kevin launched Hillbuzz, he had no idea that he would eventually have hundreds of thousands of readers or thousands of posts. So he didn’t make much effort to organize Hillbuzz content…so it was impossible to find things on the old site.

Part of the site migration process has involved re-reading, tagging and categorizing every single one of the 7,700+ posts in an effort to organize the vast universe of content Kevin has created.

Unfortunately for Kevin, that means re-living one of the most difficult times of his life, when he was “outed” as the owner and editor of Hillbuzz and personally attacked by Leftist trolls to the extent that he became virtually unemployable.

When he launched Hillbuzz in 2008, it was simply meant to be a way to connect a group of Hillary Clinton campaign volunteers in the Chicago area. But the blend of snarky humor, astute political analysis, patriotism and intellectual honesty proved irresistible, and soon, both Hillbuzz and Kevin had attracted a following.

Dozens of daily readers became hundreds; hundreds became thousands, and on some days, over a hundred thousand.  And some of those readers turned out to be big-name conservatives like Rush Limbaugh and Michelle Malkin.

And they weren’t the only ones taking note of this site’s growing influence. Eventually, Kevin and the Hillbuzz Boyz became enough of a threat to the Leftist establishment that they became the target of a vicious and unrelenting smear campaign that continues, in one form or another, to this day.

Until January of 2010, Kevin wrote Hillbuzz anonymously, and was able to have a pretty good life in Chicago’s gay (and Democrat) Boystown neighborhood. But after his privacy was violated by Leftist operatives, his conservative beliefs and reawakening spirituality made him something of an outcast in his community.

The past couple of months have been a challenge for Kevin as he has organized the Hillbuzz archives, and been reminded of the ferocity of last year’s Leftist troll attacks.

So, as one of Kevin’s friends and readers, I’d like to ask my fellow readers for a favor. Please take a minute to send Kevin a virtual hug in the comments section–or better yet–say a prayer for him. Let him know what Hillbuzz means to you. Let him know that the attacks he has endured have been worth it. Or just post something that makes you smile or gives you hope. Kevin will be able to come back to this thread and feel your positive energy whenever he needs a boost.

Kevin truly believes in the power of prayer, and I’m sure that it makes a difference.

Thanks in advance,

Kathleen

p.s. I’ll start: “Thank you, Kevin, for keeping me sane and entertained for the past 18 months! Your open heart, incredible sense of humor and passion for our great country inspire me every day. I’ve got your back.”

    Kevin!
    Your example re-affirms my faith in the power of the human mind. The many intelligent liberals I know, who refuse to look past the Leftist facade, had me worried about our country's future. You proved that the brain can re-emerge!
    Being a somewhat un-groomed burly straight male, a hug from me frightens most people. How about an 'Atta Boy!' ass slapping?
    Thank you vey much for all you hard work.

    Kevin, how can I begin to thank you for putting together one of the most readable, honest, informative political blogs on the internet? You have truly created a community here – not a small accomplishment! I read other sites maybe once a day, but Hillbuzz is a site I can't stay away from, and I come back over and over throughout my day. I know it must take an extraordinary amount of work on your part, not just keeping the content fresh and up-to-the-minute but also weeding out the nasty trolls, spam, advertising, etc., that are such a distraction on other sites.

    It says a lot (and not in a good way) about the left that keeping this site going has cost you so much, not just in terms of your time and money, but in terms of your LIFE! While the conservatives I know are perfectly capable of agreeing to disagree with liberals, the liberals instead want to DESTROY those who disagree with them. Especially someone like you who used to be on their side, but then refused to drink the Obama kool-aid.

    Kevin (and ALL the Hillbuzz team), please know that we love you, we pray for you, and we wish you MUCH success in the future. I'm actually looking forward to 2012 knowing that I have a place like Hillbuzz to go to for information and community.

    And BTW, I can tell that Rush Limbaugh reads you, because I hear more and more Hillbuzz info when I listen to his show! I think it says a LOT about how successful you're getting that, while Rush may not quote you directly, he obviously uses Hillbuzz in his show prep now. And YOU appear to have the information BEFORE he does!

However, if there's one thing thing I can never turn away from, it's someone who needs a hug. Kevin, you are an extraordinary young man. You've built an incredible family here, and whatever I might disagree with you about (it does happen on occasion), I will always be willing and happy to defend you and protect you.

    ((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((Kevin)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))) Let Justin take care of you on occasion, and take care of yourself.

We have all grown and learned and shared these past couple of years like no other community I have seen on the internet. You are one person who has shown that one person CAN make a difference. You have shown us that no matter how difference and diverse we all are, no matter how many different opinions we may have, it is possible to come together in spirit to get along for the good of the country and for the good of people. I have always defended you and always will! Keep up the good fight. We're behind you.

    Having moved sites from server A to B, and having read about the issues other sites have had (eg: WattsUpWithThat) I realize that moving is non-trivial, but to cause that much stress? Especially since WordPress offers a migration feature?

    Then I read this, "Part of the site migration process has involved re-reading, tagging and categorizing every single one of the 7,700+ posts in an effort to organize the vast universe of content Kevin has created."

    Dude, you've gone completely mad. :)

    Hillbuzz is one of the blogs that I always look at and I think you've done heroic work putting it all together over the years, especially with all the associated issues (malevolent trolls and such.)

    Kudos, compliments, and bags of cookies. Well done.

    Kevin, you & Hillbuzz have kept me encouraged, motivated, & entertained during the last 3 years. Look at all you have accomplished! One of the really good things about this site is how it is so sane & moderated; it would have been fine with me if you had just scuttled all those attacks, etc., instead of re-reading them & categorizing them. On the other hand, it has opened my eyes to the level of evil in the battles we face, and I've vowed to go forward speaking my mind & supporting what I believe in, rather than remaining silent. You are an inspiration, & I hope you will continue and never lose hope.

    Dear Kevin,
    I received this as a 'forward-this-to-everyone' email and thought it most apropo to you today.
    "May today there be peace within. May you trust that you are exactly where you are meant to be. May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of faith in yourself and others. May you use the gifts that you have received, and pass on the love that has been given to you. May you be content with yourself just the way you are. Let this knowledge settle into your bones, and allow your soul the freedom to sing, dance, praise and love. It is there for each and every one of us."
    Live simply. Love generously. Serve faithfully. Speak truthfully. Pray Daily. Leave everything else to God.
    Sincerely,

    Kevin,
    I stumbled upon hillbuzz during the 2008 campaign after Hillary lost the nomination. I admit I wasn't a Hillary fan but I remember the post you wrote shortly after Obama won the election in which
    you stated an apology to George Bush and I thought to myself , what a refreshing and honest person you were to do that.
    I love this site and I love the fact that people from all political beliefs can unite and share on this site their love for the USA. Thank You Kevin !

    Kevin, I found you in September of 2008, when you were telling people not to be Eeyores. I've checked this blog every day since then. You impress me with your humor, your ability to cut right to the main point, and your willingness to share your inner self with all of us. Your post after the Restoring Honor rally, where you shared about how you had come back to God, was one of your best. I will keep you in my prayers.

    I'm sorry you have to go back and read those nasty emails, but keep telling yourself that you came through all of that and not only survived it, but are thriving.

    Thank you — and lots of hugs.

    Kevin, this site is AWESOME! You should be so proud of all of your hard work and how amazingly popular it has become. It's always tough reliving the past, but it should also give you an amazing sense of accomplishment–you had some pretty bad crap thrown at you, and you prevailed. Thriving in spite of it all is the worst kind of punishment you can hand to those nasty liberals who live to tear others down. That's why they hate Sarah Palin so much.

    I run a couple websites of my own, so I can also relate to how you feel after being tethered to the computer for so long, stressing about things that aren't working right, etc. It's tough to really step back and enjoy what you've done when you've been staring at it for so long. I hope you are able to get out and enjoy the nice spring weather, go out to eat something yummy, see a movie or something. Just give yourself a little breather, pamper yourself, and then dive back in. This site is going to generate revenue for you. This site is going to be even more popular due to your hard work.

    Thank you for everything you do!

    *hugs* Jen

    That which doesn't kill you makes you stronger. Those trolls tried and failed to take you down. Their ugliness, their hypocrisy, their outright indecency simply firm the resolve of the strong to crush them underfoot. You're a strong person Kevin, I know you can keep going. Hillbuzz is great, I've had some great laughs at your commentary and love your stories. Actually my favorite posts were the troll deconstruction ones with the hall of the mountain king embeds, heh.

You have been a blessing for me, I've cried, I've laughed. Hell I even gave money, and that's something I don't do a lot of.

That is okay with me. We can all agree that disagreeing does not mean "hate" or that people should receive attacks. I hope that get the rest and relaxation that you need. 2012 is coming, and we will need you. Please know that there are more of us who are on your side and oppose the Obama agenda than those who support it. We are just more quiet, and we don't attack people. We vote.

    Kevin, I am a 71 year old conservative male and was with my wife in Galveston while she attended the Texas State Republican Women's Convention in November of 2009. A friend emailed me a link to your site in which you apologized to George and Laura Bush for all the negative things you had thought and said about them over the years. My first thought was, "Wow even the Democrats are beginning to see through Obama" and as the song says, "You had me from hello".

    I predict you will play as large a part in selecting the next President of the United States as anyone in the country. Hang in there and don't let the negative leftys get you down, it is going to be quite a trip.

    First of all–GREAT picture, Kevin!!

    I've absolutely loved your blog and the Hillbuzz community since the day I first stumbled across it and got a good laugh out of a gross pic of Teddy Kennedy in his swimsuit juxtaposed next to Hottie McAwesome's centerfold. At that point in time, it was absolutely fantastic for me because I was stuck home a lot with my kids' medical issues. So, it was a complete sanity saver for me to be able to connect with other like-minded folks, to learn a LOT about the way some of the political games are played, to get a great chuckle on a crummy day, to learn a little about your local community & things going on in your life, to keep informed, to see things happening all over the country that I would otherwise not know about, and to get motivated to make a difference myself. You are one of the most entertaining writers and Hillbuzz is a great community of folks. I'm very grateful to have found you and all the Buzzers. Shine on!

Even though I can't quite understand the Sarah Palin fascination (and I do think more highly of Hillary than most Republicans my age), the patriotism and thoughtful reflection you put out there on a daily basis is making a difference – making people think for a change.

    Keep up the awesome work!

Your honest, logical, heartfelt dialog with me and all the people who found their way to your site was just the right ray of light I needed ( and I suppose many others) to see that I needed to stop worrying and start doing. You have encouraged me to get involved, speak up and speak out while maintaining respect and values that are dear to me. I love you for that, God bless you, Karen
