Re: Honored by Steven Gordon

Did anyone else notice that Donderooooo has a complimentary quote from Ron Paul on his site, front page, above the fold? WTF?

EDIT: Not his site, his blog, see my post below for linky linkity.

I guess it's to show that "even dangerous mad kooks who are supported by Nazis and white supremacists like Eric Dondero!!!" Or something.

Dangerman, on MainstreamLibertarian.com? Where?
Though, on same site, near the bottom is this gem:

Donderderoooooo wrote:
In addition, Urkobold, a widely-read libertarian culture site did an extensive interview with Dondero, mainly about the War in Iraq and how libertarian views coincide with an aggressive foreign policy.

In the interview Dondero declared the War on Terror largely won:

Al Qaeda has been defeated. A top Iraqi leader pronounced that the other day, "Al Qaeda has been defeated in Iraq."

We got Saddam. We got his two murderous thug sons. We got Zarcawi. We captured Khalid Sheik Muhammed the master-mind behind 9/11. Bin Laden is hiding in a cave in Western Pakistan completely cut off and completely impotent.

We won the War in Afghanistan in record time. We won the War in Iraq with an amazingly low number of casualties.

I'm starting to think that it's time to "bring the boys home," and have huge parades.

Thank you Dangerman. I suspected that it was his blog and not the mainstreamlibertarian.com site but alas I cannot access blogspot from work.

Re: Honored by Steven Gordon

This is wonderful.

I just sent VM, Highnumber, and a couple other people at URKOBOLD(TM) (if I had their e-mail addresses handy) a note of congratulations upon Dondero's recognition of their important influence upon the libertarian movement. Specifically, I suggested that

Quote:
"'A widely read libertarian culture site' -- Eric Dondero"

needs to be included among their "Endorsements for URKOBOLD(TM)" citations.

Who's Steven Gordon? He is clearly aware of the appropriate number of 'o's in the name of DONDEROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!, so I assume he hangs out here and/or at H&R. Is this true, or is the proper spelling of the name infecting the blogosphere?

Quote:
The Anti-War libertarian Shit List:

Ron Paul, Lew Rockwell, Justin Raimondo, Eric Garris, Gene Berkman, Walter Block, Sheldon Richman, Anthony Gregory, Thomas Knapp, George Phillies, Richard Winger, Carol Moore, Steven Gordon, Todd Andrew Barnette, Jeff Rigenbach, Alan Turin, Stephen Kinsella, Bruce Dovner, and Doug Bandow.

In other words almost every prominent actual libertarian in the country. There's a few missing but it pretty much is a libertarian who's-who.

I must confess, if you love insanity, Donderooooooooooooooo is truly the gift that keeps on giving.

The funny thing is that Dondero seems to want to have a political label so badly that he feels he has to misappropriate one.

I mean, for Dondero libertarian is certainly out and Un-American Bed-Wetting Little Sissies is....well...I'm pretty sure all the Bed-Wetting Little Sissies in the world would considerate a real insult to be compared to him.

So, can anyone come up with an apt word for Eric Dondero's political philosophy?

i appreciate the synergy between donderoooooooooooooo's insanity and the robustness of the "donderooooooooooooooo" mini-meme.

Jake,
Steve Gordon is the current chair of the Libertarian Party of Alabama, and former political director of the national LP. Wikipedia entry here. I knew him as the cynical bastard on hammeroftruth.com but that blog has been defunct for a while.

Re: Honored by Stephen Gordon

Might the phrase we're looking for be "batshit insanity?"

Re: Honored by Stephen Gordon

Of course, you have to realize that I am a little upset at not making the list. If only I was a little more prominent and vocal as a LP activist I would have, you know.

Then you would have had to give me my due you little people. Yes, you would have.

Actually, the funny thing is that after my little bitchslapfest with Rittberg/Donderoooooo on H&R Gillespie asked me to be a friend on facebook. I'm not not sure if that was why, but it sure seemed cokindenkal and all, if ya know what I mean. Funny too, 'cause at the time I though I might be running afoul of H&R's abusive rules and all. Actually what I was running afoul of was the Lord's rules about the truth (the curse of being raised a Quaker arises here) but that's another story.

Isaac, you were doing the work of the ages. I was in awe and lolz.

However, Gillespie friended me around the same time, so I think he was just friending everybody he could find.

*Sniff, sniff* I thought I was special...

Thanks, Sandy. I was actually acting out a part and was hoping it would have some affect. Especially on Donderooooo, naturally.

You know I really have wondered what brought us to the attention of great one of the leather jacket too. Any ideas? Obviously neither of us is that special...no matter how much we wish it to be so.

Here, long since dead.. I'm kind of proud of it though. :) Kind of stream of consciousness stuff. I just got going and couldn't stop.
