In response to Ted Rall
Theodore,
It takes years for some people to realize they are a waste of oxygen; at least you’re a little ahead of the game. In your Who Watches the Watch Dog column on yahoo you referred to bloggers as the new sheriff in town that is drunk, mean, and works for the bad guys. You also said many of bloggers are ordinary people who are uneducated. Hmm, let me think about it for a second.
The blogger’s I read are:
Bad Example: Harvey has a degree in Finance
Basil’s Blog: basil’s a System’s Analyst.
Confederate Yankee: C.Y.’s a Web Design Consultant with a Masters in Tech Writing.
IMAO: Frank J’s an Engineer
Mountaineer Musings: SarahK’s a CPA
The Flying Space Monkey Chronicles: SpaceMonkey is a programmer.
I could continue though my blog roll to prove that we’re educated (I’m a Systems Analyst with a Bachelors in Computer Science and a Masters in Business Administration) but your pinko commie handlers probably don’t let you read blogs written by people with cognitive thought processes; thus you’ll probably need to stick with the Democratic Underground.
May you catch the clap from your gay monkey lover.
Now that my rant is over, on with the fun; Theodore made several valid points about what conservative bloggers think of him, but he was a little off.
"Ted Rall should be beat to within an inch of his life with a baseball bat." – Really we wouldn’t wish Ted beaten within an inch of his life. If someone is going to exert that much effort, they may as well finish off the job. Now it would be cool if someone knee capped him, or just kicked him in the whozits repeatedly until he no longer has the ability to reproduce.
"Every morning when I read the paper, I hope the headline will bring me tidings of Ted Rall's untimely demise. Untimely? Nah. Overdue." - We don’t read the paper each day searching for news of your demise. We do however check Fox News repeatedly during the day hoping you’ve developed lead poisoning from chewing on one to many pencils.
"When I flush the toilet, it isn't considered violence, is it? So killing Ted Rall should be no different." – Now how are you going to compare yourself to something that involves valuable resources? It would be more appropriate if you stated that using traps to kill rats and mice is a public service, so wouldn’t killing Ted Rall be a public service too?
