The proof is here.
Other post proves that conservatard propagated smear of Glenn Greenwald Hahaha! I recall how outraged liberals were about Gleen(s)’ sockpuppetry and his lame lying about it after he was nabbed.
C’mon guys, just admit it. SCHIP expansion is subsidized mortgage payments for the middle class.
Where’s Jeff? I don’t know, so you can stop bugging me about it. I imagine he’s off to Phoenix to watch the Rockies-Diamondbacks series. If you’re reading this, Jeff, it breaks my heart what you’re doing to happyfeet.

That would be a brain-damaged 12-year-old, JD, cause his still-uninsured loser Mom ran into a tree while his dad was busy whittling himself a half-assed paycheck.

You’re such a high-ranking member of the conspiracy you don’t even know you’re in it.
Can I rid in your helicopter?

BJ – Consider yourself a high ranking officer in the conspiracy. Just remember the handshake (looks remarkably like flippin the bird), and secret password (Jooooooooooooooooooooooos, of course).
happyfeet – Brilliant.

If anything, these dirty self-righteous socialist loser hippies have pretty much gotten a free pass. You might think they might be humiliated but they self-evidently have little pride to besmirch.

Just wait for it. Next up loser mom will be reporting threatening phone calls and loser dad will be filing for disability based on some stress-related claim. They’ll walk outside one morning and gaze in horror upon the smashed pumpkin on their sidewalk and be whisked away to a secure location. For the safety of the children, you know.
Comment by buzz on 10/11 @ 12:59 pm #
Yeah where was that smear again? First comment under the think progress post:
“All of a sudden, a Rove-style ugly and false attack on a disabled kid is levied.
Coincedence?”
What the hell? Where was the smear? What I have seen is the parents are underemployed, they have access to assets, they chose not to buy insurance BEFORE they needed it and now are using the government to bail them out. Which part is incorrect? Oh and it’s coincidence. Idiots.
Comment by Education Guy on 10/11 @ 1:00 pm #
smear is the new synonym for researched. This is fortunate for the think progress crowd, because it is also a new synonym for responded to, investigated and answered.
Minitrue assures us the next version of the newspeak dictionary will have weeded out these other words, as smear should be sufficient.

One cannot smear frost. Frosting is smeared.

“Smear†is libtard talk for “exposed facts inconvenient to our proffered narrative.â€Â
i.e.:
Max Cleland was “smeared†by revealing the actual* circumstances of his injuries suffered in Vietnam and his actual position on a matter of National Security import.
John Kerry was “smeared†by replaying his actual* testimony before Congress and allowing those with whom he served to voice their recollection of certain facts underlying his service medals and their opinions of him.
Amanda Marcotte was “smeared†by exposing her actual* written words at a time and under circumstances which made their exposure rather inconvenient for the campaign for which she was working, leading to the natural assumption that the candidate for whom she was working either endorsed or was non plussed by the content of her words.
Joe Wilson and Valerie Plame Wilson were “smeared†by a revelation of their actual* relationship and Ms. Wilson’s efforts while an employee and serving in an office of an Agency of the government.
* actual, as opposed to virtual, where each is simultaneously both a victim and hero

Alec;
One of Mandy’s minions tried to come here and argue that her words were “taken out of context by right wing smear merchants.” A few of us pointed out that Edwards referred to those lost and lonely words when he was announcing her resignation from the campaign blog.
Of course, it’s still those awful wingnut ReThug’s fault. Mandy and her acolytes are still searching for the lost, hungry and shivering context.

She could be the worst of all of them – a person of integrity would have reaffirmed her statements instead of trying to continue whoring for Edwards, and then immediately upon electing the “gentleman’s option,†lashing out yet again. I guess Starbucks doesn’t pay as well as Edwards.
Comment by kelly on 10/11 @ 2:45 pm #
Okay, help me out here. At the risk of “smearing” the poor Frost kid any further, just how is his name pronounced? Is it the same as “Graham”?
Back on topic, this whole kerfuffle hits home with me personally because I have a brother who’s family, employment, and lack of health insurance (by choice) are almost identical to the Frosts. His wife recently was hospitalized and as they’re now facing the bills, they are considering using the equity in their home. Tough choices, indeed.
The big difference? They would never allow one of his children to be pimped out for a political battle.

N.O’Brain – You should start a wiki page for them.
Merovign – I thought the Left was against keeping score, having winners and losers, and other self-esteem demolishing types of things. But then again, when the opppnent is the Right, the Left has no problem being racist, sexist, homophobes.

I really, really hate to be a pedantic prick, because your definition (and examples) of “smear” was magnificent, but you used “i.e.”, which is the abbreviation for the Latin for “that is (to say)”, when what you wanted was “e.g.”, the abbreviation for the Latin for “for example”.
I know, I know, and I hate me too for bringing it up, but little shit like that just bugs the hell out of me.
DON’T get me started on Teh Big Shite (hehehe)….
Comment by Merovign on 10/11 @ 6:05 pm #
ccs – Calvinball is eminently fair in comparison. For example, I don’t remember Calvinball having a coach to lend authority to Calvin’s pronouncements, like the left has the MSM.
JD – The Left IS against keeping score – as long as they’re losing. They’re against having winners and losers – unless they’re the winners. But, after all, it was a rhetorical question. :)
