"Where's My Baseball Bat? THIS Is An OUTRAGE...."

Posted by Bill

It seems that my Helen Thomas joke struck a nerve with a poster called "monkeyfister" aka "Tony B" on the message boards at the far leftist web site Bartcop:

I shouldn't even be repeating this filth, mods, if you agree, then sqeltch this post at your discretion.
The story at the link below, reveals the depravity of the Right's sickness. It seems that they are STILL trying the Invasion of GiGi's privacy angle, but, they've taken it to the most deplorable I could ever imagine.

I'm thoroughly disgusted.

From INDCent Journal... (That's what the Llamas call me! -- ED)

fucking sick bastards.

When a couple of commenters opined that the p-shop was funny, his outrage only sharpened:

"Well, I Simply Have Too Much Respect For Ms. Thomas ..." In response to Reply #2 To abide by this bullshit. Sure, my spleen is working overtime, but, I see notyhing funny or benign in this mockery.
Sorry if I seem breathless-- I see no comparison between the two subjects that justifies an attack on a paragon of Democracy in the Press Pool, such as Ms. Thomas, I love and respect her too much. I'm going to continue to hold onto my special hatred for these bastards.

Hold on to the hatred, Tony! Don't you ever let it go.

Then, when Tony/monkeyfister was asked about my web site by another commenter, I learned some surprising details about myself:

"They're Just Your Typical Right Wing Idiots Outta DC..." In response to Reply #4
Stacey McCain-- Moonie, Assoc. Editor of the Moonie Times, FReeper, Neo-Confederate, and racist bastard is a buddy and supporter of theirs.

Just your typical, right-wing blog of doom.

Tony B.

Huh? Stacey who? Am I supposed to be getting paid?

I'm rolling on the floor and wiping away tears over here.

UPDATE: I also received the exact same e-mail (along with similar ones) that Reynolds mentions. And my response is similar, though I think I may have been [otherwise occupied] in college (and not exactly writing books) when Clinton was having a hard time.

UPDATE: Another post from that thread:

Well, at least we don't have to photoshop the pictures of Guckert.
The truth enrages these vermin

I'm enraged by the TRUTH! (Makes scrunchy rat face)

OK, so is anyone going to own up to the "Tony B" sock puppet?

This is becoming too surreal.

I�m starting to think Rove might actually be behind it all.

Bartcop is where the people too incoherent for DU hang out.

So since when did the lunatic left start objecting to male homosexual prositution? Barney Frank's lover ran a prositution ring from Frank's residence. Funny I don't recall the left objecting to Frank's lover's business.

Well, the diametric yet equivalent response to that would be "since when did the right defend gay male prostitution," which assumes that everyone on the right is the same and doesn't really address the issue at hand. And that's just silly.

Soooo...putting Helen Thomas' head on a classical nude is 'fucking sick' and leaves one 'thoroughly disgusted'.

And this from someone with the handle of...

'monkeyfister'.

monkeyfister.

I thought the Thomas nude was tastefully done. Tony must be an art critic.

THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS! I DEMAND PIE NOW!!!

Bill, have you no sense of decency? I will ask you to refrain from degrading any further the woman that I have loved. See, with her I went to the moon and beyond. As a naive adolescent, I discovered the ecstasies of the flesh at her bossom, and I probed the darkest mystery that is woman. She made a man of me during those few weeks, night after night turning me every which way but loose. It was never meant to be and so it ended, but for God's sake man, show some dignity. On her honor, sir! On her honor I demand it!

Now it's starting to get to be too much "Harold & Maude"ish for me. Everyone at my high school was sickened by that scene of them in bed.

Tony B.'s outrage did seem to protest a little too much--are we discovering the origin of his nickname, monkeyfister?
Jeez! that Clinton White House was more depraved than we thought.
Although, Bill, you gotta admit "Blogs of Doom" is kinda catchy.

'Ms. Thomas, I love and respect her too much. I'm going to continue to hold onto my special hatred for these bastards.'

He loves Helen Thomas!?!? Yikes!!!!!!

You killed Monkeyfister, you BASTARD!

There used to be people on the left that had a sense of humor and were funny. Now they are bitter and hateful, and the only place you can find political humor is on the right.

When did that happen?

Bill, step back. Deep breath.

Fun Will Come. No Need to Beat Them Yet
