This is some fun. The attacks on that page (in scary bold caps) are hilarious!

The first charge hints that they've gone just a tad past terra firma: Outrage about a vacation (!!!!!!!!!) :rofl:

MOULITSAS BACK FROM SUMMER VACATION: FOCUSED ON ELECTING LAMONT DEFEATOCRATS



Daily Kos Blogger Markos Moulitsas Zuniga Back From "Relaxing" Vacation:



Moulitsas Just Got Back From Summer Vacation: "I got back from El Salvador really early this morning, so I'm still catching up on the last week's news." (The Daily Kos Website, www.dailykos.com, Accessed 8/22/06)

Moulitsas: "I'm still playing catchup after my very relaxing, very nice vacation." (Daily Kos Website, www.dailykos.com, Accessed 8/22/06

A super-mysterious, super-Democrat(ic), "relaxing" vacation. Boo!

He's "vile" (according to the National Review duh) AND angry and liberal. I love that his income is an issue ("Moulitsas Makes An "Excellent Living") -like Republicans are now the party that reviles personal success.

Quite an homage, all in all. Congrats to Markos, private citizen, blogger, bane of the RNC :applause:

1. I hope this increases visits to the "Daily Kos."

You mean if I turn off my TV, I can find left-wing opinions? I'll do it.

"Democratic Underground" is on the blogroll of "The Daily Kos."

2. Damn, that screed looks like something highschool kids put together

Is that really the RNC official site??

[Rose Siding]

3. I think so. The page says RNC "research".

They are *very* interested in marginalizing lefty blogs.

9. Joe Klein too...what's up with that?

On cue Klein attacks (and defends, and attacks) KOS in a recent TIME piece contemporary with the RNC's laughable "savaging". The Right fears what they can not control.

6. Is Bush on vacation this month?

He's gone so much I can't keep track. But I guess its more important that a blogger be on duty all the time more so than the President. ha

7. It's called "Desperation"

Enjoy the fuck out of it. And use it in November.

8. They need to rewrite it - "Moulitsas Makes An "Excellent Living -

WITHOUT TAKING BRIBES FROM JACK ABRAMOFF.

10. The RNC is giving me the impression of stalking Kos

and I know a Repub that feels this way too, I wonder how many other Repubs are being turned off by it.

Kudos to Kos, he's handling this intimidation beautifully.
