It used to be parked here. And as you can see, it was widely linked and largely well received.
But now, for some reason, I can’t get it to load or play. Anybody else having the same troubles?
Probably just some a glitch. I mean, it’s not like people’ve forgotten I did it, right?
If somebody can find a copy that hasn’t been scrubbed from existence, let me know. I don’t have one. My friend who edited it sent it along to Malkin’s (at the time) Hot Air. I’d like to use it as part of resume of sorts.
Thanks.

update: found!
Nobody?
Wow. Gone just like that.
Had some good shit in it, too.
Too bad. But that’s part of the making of the evil Jeff. Can’t allow to be readily available evidence of who I ACTUALLY am (or was).
So many high profile bloggers today weren’t even around back then and likely never even saw the thing.
I wonder if Anonymous can drag up a copy. Anybody know if Barrett is out of federal custody yet?
I haven’t drifted over to check myself, but try archive.org. It attempts to cache everything on the internet, and since there were a lot of links, there may be a good chance that it’s there.

Sorry that’s from 2005.
It’s not loading for me, either.
Your unhelpfulness has been noted. Do not continue to contaminate the narrative or harsh meeasures may be required…..
Geoff–
That’s the radio show transcript. Different thing. The video I did for Hot Air had me playing different characters and doing man on the street type interviews.
Also, it’s a joke transcript.
I remember the video, good stuff.
Have you sent an email to ‘Allah Pundit’, or is he one of the snobby-girl whispering conspirators? Ed Morrissey? Perhaps a direct recovery request to the host’s miserable site monkey mechanics?
“Your unhelpfulness has been noted. Do not continue to contaminate the narrative or harsh meeasures may be required…..”
Harsh measures? He’s already been Birched. What else can they do?
The file you are looking for is this:

but that link is dead. I post this in case any one wants to go the the source and request a copy or correct link.
I sent tweets out to MM, AP, Ed, and Bryan Preston. We’ll see what response I get.
No, he isn’t. He’s going to save the world, though.
So far, nada.
Incidentally, while I note that many former “pals” on the right won’t return my calls any longer, Wolcott and that Edroso joke at VF and VV respectively can’t seem to let me go.
Ah. At least someone remembers.
BB seems to be trying the old Ransom of Red Chief strategy.

newroutertv/proteinwisdomtv now has 5 views ratings gold i think
Thanks, nr. I downloaded a copy myself, and geoff b has one, as well.
Off-topic, but how ’bout them Seahawks! I hope bh isn’t reading this; I doubt he’s very happy tonight.
Oh, I just noticed that you found your video. I’ll go give it another watch; good stuff as I recall.
you goof better than beck et al
Would I like to see the world burn down to properly share my feelings, Mike?
I’m not answering that question tonight.
I understand, bh. You’re feeling exactly how I felt almost seven years ago after Super Bowl 40 (yes, I’m a huge Seahawks fan).
The twisted part of my brain keeps telling me that Wilson took the Badgers to a Rose Bowl, Mike.
I’ll probably still have an aneurysm before I can go to sleep tonight though.
Now I’m also thinking about TCU winning that game.
What an ugly world we live in.
dream big mr.g.
proteinwisdomtv doesn’t show up through a search with the Android app, Jeff.
Indeed it is, bh. Well, if it’s any consolation, my school (Texas Tech) has never even been to a BCS bowl, much less won one.

howabout newroutertv?
My school was voted worst party school or least attractive women by Playboy while I was there. (Not kidding. It was one of those two, I don’t remember which.)
Yes, I really do want to wallow in self-pity tonight.

“happy hour” in madison
Glad you found it Jeff. I laughed just at hard at some of it now as I did back then.
Hopefully someone will give you a chance. There’s bound to be at least ONE right-of-center person who’s not willing to cede the rhetorical battleground to our opponents.
Ah, who the fuck am I kidding?
Hilarity! with nuance. Good stuff!
It would have been better, no, if you had spelled it “Isreali”?
The blonde mustache was epic. Don’t know how I’d forgotten it.
Guess what? Not a single response from Malkin, Allah Pundit, or Bryan Preston. I advise you to check out my Twitter feed today, because I’m asking directly why I’ve been frozen out. I want to know. I don’t care how uncomfortable the truth may be.
We all know it’s happened. And I don’t like two-faced people, no matter how powerful they’ve become in the movement or how lionized they are by the rightwing blogosphere.
I’ve put in my time and my intellectual work. The stink’s been put on me. And I know at least part of how that happened. I want answers. I can help with this election. But I’m a leper.
If you have Twitter accounts and are curious like me, you can send questions to Ms Malkin, Allah Pundit, et al.
As I’ve said, it’s really only been Reynolds who’s stuck by me. And guys like Steve Green, who have moved on to do different things.
Just one thing to note. Malkin’s “buzzworthy”section links you just about every day at one point or another. In fact there’s one there right now.
Okay, heard from Bryan. He lost all his work for HA too, once it sold.
Ed suggested I email him.
Problem is, I’ve emailed Malkin dozens of times and gotten squat in return. Same with Allah. These were people who, along with me and few others, really did shape the right wing of the blogosphere.
Then, suddenly: i was marginalized.
And I think some of the people who’ve helped do it don’t realize what all went on behind the scenes. They were used, flattered, lied to, and given prosecutorial evidence of my malfeasance that, I am 1000% certain, relied on decontextualizing comments, selective editing, private importuning to stop the assault on a noble career, etc.
If I’m ever going to get back into this with any force, something has to give either way.
I’m happy to slink off. But I’m not going to pretend that I’m not being actively and pointedly ostracized.
Shorter Wolcott: “Jeeves! Loose the Ocelots!”
Asked Malkin via Twitter, what’s the real story behind the freeze out?
Her response: “Huh??”
Followed up by noting we can speak on the phone — we’ve done this in the past, you see — but that because she doesn’t follow me on Twitter, I can’t PM her my phone number.
I then noted that I have hers (I think) and that if she likes, I can call her.
This has gone on too long. I want answers. If I’m going to be ignored, I’m going to show that I’m being purposely ignored.
Does that make me dick? Yes. Do I care? Yes. Is this something I truly believe needs exploration? Yes. I am truly struggling to keep this going and to get out what I consider to be a very important message. It would seem to me I’d be a natural for Freedom Works or other TEA Party affiliated groups, etc. I have a long pedigree, and I have a unique and important angle of attack by which to win back liberty.
Therefore, I find my marginalization strange and — based on some evidence I’ve now seen — deliberate.
No follow-ups yet from Malkin to either of my suggestions for a conversation.
The dismissal from now on is going to have to be public. Allah Pundit has yet to respond, either.
Wanting a straight answer makes you a dick? I think not. You’ve given them all many opportunities to explain/make excuses in private.
Quite frankly, I don’t understand the freeze out and would like to see what kind of excuse making they are going to do by way of justification of turning on a friend and longtime colleague. It’s bad form on their part not to ‘fess up.
They have some ‘splainin’ to do.
The explanation thus far is this: “Huh??”
And:
t would seem to me I’d be a natural for Freedom Works or other TEA Party affiliated groups, etc.
I wish we had someone like you down my neck of the woods.
No one reads me (and for good reason), but I don’t mind beating this drum. Stirring up a hornets’ nest has never bothered me. Maybe I can get some (much) bigger hitters to chime in.
MM is resorting to excessive punctuation when she certainly knows what you’re on about. Sounds like a stall to me.
I just Tweeted out my phone number. Should be interesting. Wonder how quickly certain folks have copied that thing down for future anonymous abuse.
Radio silence.
You noticed that, too?
Probably not coordinated. Just understood.
Is this code for something? Lacking context, who knows?
Must be the “Alex” pic.
You scofflaw, you.
