With predictable results. Among the cameo appearances: “dead iraqi children,” a Truther calling himself “Atheist,” and a DeLay fan known as “e coli” who wishes him days in prison “filled with water-boarding, anal sodomy, and eye-liner.”
Tune in to tonight’s Countdown for Keith Olbermann’s special report on the subject, “Right-wing hate: How Tom DeLay tricked liberals into wishing prison rape on him.”

For shame Allah… the new Tom DeLay blog is at TomDeLay.com
If at first you don’t succeed, whine to the supreme court… no wait, that’s Al Gore.
If at first you don’t succeed, cook the number… oh wait, that’s Ken Lay…
If at first you don’t succeed, quit blogspot and get a real blog.

E L Frederick is right, you’ve been duped AP! I actually had planned to send you an email about Delay’s new blog after seeing him announce it on Fox & Friends yesterday morning, but I guess I must have gotten distracted, because I don’t see it in my sent items.
Now I’m kicking myself, because you wouldn’t have been duped by this thing if I had just gotten to you first!

I sent Allah an email about Michelle getting a mention on TomDeLay.com yesterday… but I think he has me on auto-delete. (evil grin)
E L Frederick (Sniper One) on December 12, 2006 at 3:31 PM
I’m confused. On the news this morning I overheard something about Delay’s blog being shut down after it was launched. Wasn’t really paying attention, but isn’t this was AP is talking about. Like I said, I’m confused.

The libtards really showed their true colors for the short time the blog was taking open comments. Hope they never get into power…d’oh! too late…
JustTruth101 on December 12, 2006 at 3:34 PM
Haha, I doubt it, but I figure his mailbox gets filled up constantly.
Anyway, regarding Delay mentioning MM, I noticed he has her blogrolled. I bitched (jokingly) in my post about not being on the TomDelay.com blogroll myself. But seriously, what’s up with him leaving out HotAir?
RightWinged on December 12, 2006 at 3:36 PM
Like I tell my kids when they say something open ended like this…
… you hear that? …that’s the sound of nobody arguing with you.
E L Frederick (Sniper One) on December 12, 2006 at 3:38 PM
The comments seem to be open on the site you provided as well.
Esthier on December 12, 2006 at 3:39 PM
hmm… guess he hasn’t learned yet.
E L Frederick (Sniper One) on December 12, 2006 at 3:41 PM
OUR BAD - YOU’RE RIGHT AP
Wait E L Frederick, I think we’ve been lazy… Follow the first link AP posted. And then go to that other blogspot site. It appears they copied and pasted a post and comments from TomDelay.com… if we are to trust the folks at this blogspot site.
RightWinged on December 12, 2006 at 3:41 PM
Could be, but TomDeLay.com deserved a mention in either case.
E L Frederick (Sniper One) on December 12, 2006 at 3:45 PM
I can hear it now… “Those weren’t real liberals. They were Karl Rove and his Army of Sock Puppets. It was a vast right wing Republican attack squad wanting to seem like liberals”
E L Frederick (Sniper One) on December 12, 2006 at 3:47 PM
My head hurts!
Dread Pirate Roberts VI on December 12, 2006 at 3:49 PM
I love how Delay keeps referring to it as the “Blog-ES-sphere”……LOL
The Ugly American on December 12, 2006 at 4:03 PM
Y’all give him too much credit. He was on it last night and he emphatically did not take the it’s-awful-so-let’s-blame-Republicans-somehow-and-pretend-they-don’t-count-as-liberals tack, which at least would have condemned the nastiness. He gloated and laughed at Delay, and even picked a favorite of the non-profane ones (lamenting that he couldnt read the profane ones on air). It was something like:
“As if bloggers aren’t already stereotyped enough as unemployed losers. Thanks a lot.”
Which, I have to admit, is kind of funny. But also one of the least nasty.
Alex K on December 12, 2006 at 4:03 PM
It was shut down for a while to deal with all the hostile comments but it’s back.
Alex K on December 12, 2006 at 4:06 PM
Pay attention, kids. It’s just the content, not the site, preserved for your amusement (or frustration).
As for our liberal friends … well, as I said once already, they are nothing if not predictable. Once again, those that claim to support concepts like free speech and the free market place of ideas … respond to differing opinions with the vilest profanity, unmistakable hate speech, and vulgarity that most elementary school children would mock as beneath them.
Liberalism in a nutshell. Every time they speak, they reveal themselves. Those comments were so predictable, in both tone and content, that they could have been scripted.
I have just one question.
I realize that the party of peace supports genocidal dictators, and the party of women’s rights support misogynist woman-haters, and the party of racial equality is the first to discriminate based on race …
… but when did this homophobic profanity thing start? I’ve noticed in recent months that liberals favorite profanities are suddenly homo-phobic (or, in some cases, homo-erotic). How many comments on their gleefully describe homosexual prison rape, anyway?
Way to go, liberals … you’ve leaped over another monument to your hypocrisy. But I’m confused. If homosexuals deserve equal rights …. why is calling someone a “fag” you’re favorite insult of late?
Sigh. At least they’re funny. “Ching chong, chong ching, ching ching chong, die you fag.” The cry of the modern liberal.

Obviously Tom believes in free speech. Unlike his opponents. Nothing stopping us from smackin’ around lefty trolls.
Iblis on December 12, 2006 at 4:25 PM
Where are the Lefty Trolls??? We’ll call Delay for extermination services…I hear he could use the work…
seejanemom on December 12, 2006 at 4:40 PM
Delay should really consider doing something else.
JammieWearingFool on December 12, 2006 at 4:43 PM
Blather…I have a budget for my site of roughly $2 per month, but I would gladly double that to have you write for me. I know, staggering dollar figures…
How does the quote go:
Something like that I think.

“Right-wing hate: How Tom DeLay tricked liberals into wishing prison rape on him.”
LMAO! Oh how sad but true.
Scotsman on December 12, 2006 at 4:47 PM
AP nailed Olby quite accurately there. No liberal behavior is so off-the-wall that it can’t be spun as a Republican dirty trick.
Why would a formerly embattled politician open himself up to the lowest scum of his opposition like that? If he did not foresee the bile, venom, and cheapshots from the LLL, my opinion of his strategery has dipped.
Freelancer on December 12, 2006 at 6:19 PM
Why would he close comments? I never conservative bloggers that close them. Fear of trolls? Easy enough to delete them or IP ban them. Or ignore. Let the lefties show their intelligence for all its worth.
lorien1973 on December 12, 2006 at 8:54 PM
Got a question for you. You mentioned you wanted Blather to write for you. Looking at his statement
..is this the reasoning part or the trying to change liberals’ minds part?
honora on December 13, 2006 at 12:08 PM
Right…that statement is exactly the same as wishing someone “filled with water-boarding, anal sodomy, and eye-liner.”
You got me good.
StoutRepublican on December 13, 2006 at 1:12 PM
Definitely glad I matriculated here. I seem to be asking the same question over and over: what is with all the vitriole?
