Teh Stupid! It b-u-r-n-s!! Via BTD:

[LORD KOS]There will be a time to push [H]im, but as far as I’m concerned, I’m going to wait to see what [Obama's nominations mean] on a policy basis, not on personalities.

And BTD responds:

I disagree with that. The time to push is all the time.

Double fucking super-bonus "All You Can Eat Vegas Special" pony bingo!

Guess we know which bunch of WATBs thinks their candidate lost.

[Welcome, Shakespeare's Sister readers. See Paul Lukasiak for an explanation of why this is happening. "Flailing"? "Spittle"? Project much?]

[Welcome, Kossacks. The post that you probably need to be reading is here. ]

Or not.

Kid Oakland, he of the "casual poetry" of Obama-fame (see example) is shocked, shocked that purging all the [not Obama] supporters from The Obama 527 Formerly Known As Daily Kos could have real life consequences:

There was a moment that gave me pause. I was having a friendly conversation with three SoCal kossacks in the hallway on Saturday when two Los Angeles-based delegates approached. These women, both experienced delegates and friendly Clinton supporters, were happy to chat about what we had in common: blog reading, support for Debra Bowen, curiosity about the Migden/Leno battle and the 2010 governor's race. One of the women, wearing a Hillary button, went out of her way to compliment our group of younger delegates (wearing Obama buttons aside from me...a press pass guy) for attending the convention. I asked her if she read DailyKos and she replied curtly:

"I'm on strike from that blog."

That surprised me.

That would be because you're not talking to half the party--and you're only reading the rec list at Kos. (It's also likely that she only spoke to you because you weren't wearing an Obama badge. Because otherwise why invite the abuse. Eh?)

I've met thousands of kossacks whether at Las Vegas or Chicago or events here in California, and I've never once had a negative experience asking if someone reads DailyKos. ... Obama's line about "Friends before and friends afterwards" is true.

That's what struck me with that comment. I think we've all got to take a step back and think about that for a second. This was a woman who was cordial and welcoming and yet she felt estranged from DailyKos. The strike shut down the conversation.

Oh, it was the strike that shut down the "conversation"? What is this, the management perspective? I don't think so. Maybe I got the title of the post wrong, 'cause I left out the "not" before "getting it." I guess traffic must be down, after all, though, for this post even to have been written.

Actually, one of the diaries is really interesting, and you can see why it got recommended; it illustrates the "casual poetry" of the Obama campaign so well. It's the one around the middle, titled "Hardball, What does Hillary want?"

Just give me a moment to slip into my scrubs and pull on my surgical gloves....

There! Follow me below the fold. (I added yellow highlighter to the best part.)

You know, I do have one question after glancing at the Obama 527 Formerly Known As Daily Kos, which is:

Lord Kos digs in. Here's why Clinton supporters aren't welcome on his site:

Except Lord Kos forgot to read his own FAQ:

And I take remarks like this personally:

Kos to Hillary supporters: don't let the door hit you on the way out:

"[KOS] It's a big Internet, so I hope they find what they're looking for."

Me too.

Like RiverDaughter says:

I think it would only be fair.
