I'm not sure exactly what you're asking ... hope this helps:

What I found worthwhile include the following:
(a) a blogger critical of left-wing-extremists is encouraged to post by the owner of a nominally left-wing extremist site. Those people (if you read the comments and the blogger's 'bio') are typically bounced from other sites, and their replies deleted.
(b) whether you find the post funny or not (I did), the 'multiple choice' options given to many of the questions fit the scenarios perfectly, which:
(c) bring out the worst of the left-wing contingent, with additional responses from an apparent right-wing contingent.
(d) This site and, apparently, Huffington's site, do have one thing in common: both places allow disagreement. What I found interesting is that when a moonbat lands here, his/her basic operating thesis consists of "Bush lied" and "no war for oil' ... or whatever. The "problem" is that moonbats don't tend to come back to this site much. They tend to leave as soon as possible.

Stuff like the above totally enrages the moonbat segment at Huffington's site. The interesting part, to me, was the wide range of liberals replying (forget the conservatives, for stuff like this):

So basically this was written so "Liberals" will get upset (even though they answer "no" to 99 percent of your hilarious questions), and "Conservatives" can pat you on the back and tell you it's the greatest post EVER (yeah fatmikemoore, we get it, you love the construction worker post)?
And you can claim some sort of moral high ground because you edit a magazine that routinely features a half naked Brooke Burke on the cover?
Pointless and arrogant. Nice combo. |
I agree with the large majority of opinions on this site, which are admittedly conservative, but if you only listen to and read things that support your viewpoint, I submit you will be unable to actually define the term "moonbat". Bats, like any other winged creature, need botha left and a wing to be able to continue their journey towards the moon.
I also agree with the last quote above. One of these days, I hope to be able to explain exactly what it means. |
