Waldo:
Do you think it has something to do with the fact that as part of the ‘New Media’ that the Daily Progress has never felt anywhere as nearly threatened by you, as apparently the Slantin (Too the Left) MisLeader feels by those cited?

BTW:
Do you care to cite examples of how these bloggers are offensive? I mean in terms of public political discourse, and not in terms of how their political views, you know, offend you?

From the News-Leader:

As if they were ever anonymous; anyone with even a nodding familiarity with local politics and blogs knows who the people are who hide behind the tawdry masks of “SWAC Girl,” “General Grievous’ Dog,” “Elle,” “John Maxfield,” et al. Rather than being stand-up honest and putting their real names on their works, however, they prefer to live in a pretend world of comic book personae and blog postings that would have graced the walls of a bathroom stall in a more graceful age.

Devastating, and correct.

Why does anyone who disagrees with the SWAC bloggers have to feel “threatened”? Is that the classic line you use to make yourself feel better. You gambled. You lost. It’s okay. Just prepare to reap the benefits of it.

“Bipartisanship is another name for date rape, we are trying to change the tones in the state capitals — and turn them toward bitter nastiness and partisanship.”
Grover Norquist, GOP strategist,head of Americans for Tax Reform, and SWAC Mullah.

Grover Norquist should be in federal prison. Anyone that rides with Grover Norquist rides with the Devil. Repent!

make no mistake Kilo:
Democrats voted en masse for Hanger. Many a vehicle drove away from the polls with a Democrat endorsed bumper sticker on the back. Open Primary’s served the career politicians well…

That was me, you twit! Try not to bite the hand that is helping. I’m deeply disappointed that Sayre didn’t get the nomination, but I look forward to your ascension to the Augusta County Republican Party Chair. Keep up the good work! Best to Lynn, Kurt, Ann, Alex, the Wise-man. Long live SWACPAC!

Well yes, but we have to do it the Republican way. We need to astroturfan organization, then get funding from The Liberal Cabal. Then we use our funding to make a lot of noise, saturate the media, and soon everyone will think we are a real grassroots movement.

“Childish blogs are but a symptom of the disease that afflicts local Republican leadership”
Better written as: “Childish blogs are but a symptom of the disease that afflicts our current political atmosphere”

I think that’s probably fair, Tom.
