Damn Funny Indeed.

Wow, I am torn on this

Wow, I am torn on this one.

By and large, the underhanded shenanigans have been perpetrated by the right, leaving the left looking like the knights on white horses poised to ride in and save the country. News reports of voter fraud, sexual misconduct (with one notable exception) and deceptive advertising all reinforced the public image of the GOP as a radical, cheat-to-win organization.
And I have to say, when I first saw the original post here, I was more than a bit disappointed. The idea of the left dropping down to the level of the right, and possibly misleading voters, scared me.

I too, it seems, fell for the hoax.
Am I mad?
No. So I am left at this juncture:

One the one hand, the mass of hysterical press leaves our reputations slightly bruised.

But on the other ---- damn funny!

operatives have all undergone clever metamorphases under the knife of a pakistani surgeon at a saudi-owned plastic surgery clinic to resemble overweight white trash trailer park dwellers.

a fine way to retire

Yeah, I could be lying about it being a psyops experiment. they better take their ID to their GOTV places tomorrow just in case.

And

And timed to perfection don't you think ? LOL That freeper thread is hysterical. Apparently Eric has some saudi business ties, and there is a pakistan connection, and something about ACORN whoever that is. I bet they have flooded the inboxes of GOP organizations all day long. Not exactly how the well oiled machine wanted to spend the eve of the election. I'm rolling. Damn i wish drudge had ran with it.

don't fall for it RABid

(p.s., now you know how 1/2 of america feels when folks with a megaphone try to scare the beejesus out of you just because they can.)

Don't believe the hoax theory!

truly one of the finest moments of political hilarity i've ever witnessed.

Operation Infiltration Radio Silence

I gotta tell ya, before I start in on this post, I don't think I have laughed so much on any other day as I did today.

So we (lets call it the royal we) decided to test a theory by performing an elaborate experiment. Just how dumb and hypocritical are the right wing blogging base ? That was the question.

From that "Operation Infiltration" was born. A purely psyops operation - while the knuckledraggers (and we'll get to those gems in a minute) thought it was the GOP 72 hour program we were infiltrating (Like that operation would be publicized on the biggest political blog in the state! LOL), what we really infiltrated was their paranoid minds. In fact so successful was this infiltration that it actually affected the GOP's GOTV effort (some were being told to bring ID before volunteering! LOL).

With no actual evidence of anything but a few blog posts, we threw a bone and they all chased it like puppies. Even snaring the whacked out Michelle Malkin. Dozens of bloggers and their minions wasted an entire day in panic - a day that could have been used advocating for their candidates, ok, attacking actual Democratic candidates.

The dumbasity of freepers cannot be underestimated (no wonder they all think Iraq was involved in 9/11 and we found WMD over there - they'll believe anything they are told). I received what must be 40 emails from these jokers all asking for the "mission profile". Sorry guys, I aint as dumb as you. I must admit they were creative though.

This from a guy called "OutOf IraqNow"

Send me a mission statement, or instructions! Whatever I can do to help, I will!!!! Go democrats!!! Take back the government from the liars, thieves, crooks and murderers!!!

So desperate he mails again

I still haven't heard from you!!! Time is running out...I am on a very progressive campus, I can motivate fellow students...let me know what to do. Thanks!

The serial exclamation marks were a bonus. My favorites though were the nastygrams. Ranging from a simple

"GO FUCKYOURSELF"

To the much more elaborate

You're on the list now, and not the fags list either.

You and your family and friends will pay

oooooohhhhh. I am in awe of the intellectual firepower - I'm hoping it's a shortlist and they are going to award me a prize ! Almost a stupid as thinking my host was somehow in on all this...

So we've established their idiocy. Let's establish their hypocrisy.

Not one person on the right, blogger, commenter or emailer ever made mention of the actual voter suppression efforts their actual party is engaged in. In fact in 1 state the AG told them to cease and desist. Here in Ohio the GOP's efforts to eliminate poll watchers was also quashed by a judge.

I'm sorry fellas, but you consistently expose yourself to this because none of you are intellectually honest. Indeed I think you have all been brainwashed, or suffer some pathological disorder.

If this state, this country, is ever going to work I'm afraid you are all going to have to look in the mirror and take some responsibility for the mess your party has created, all on its own. My party isn't perfect but the fact I can say so means it can and will get better. Right now you're giving booze to an alcoholic.

Before I close I have to admit to one disappointment with Operation Infiltration. Together with the blog posts, some fake flyers were anonymously mailed out to a bunch of knuckledraggers, flyers like this

Heh.
I would have bet money one of them would have posted it as proof of a canvassing infiltration, but damn if they didn't censor it.

Of course, having wrote all this, I'm sure they'll think I am still just messing with their heads - and they might just be right about that.
