Conservative Idiots
DU does a good job with the conservative idiots, but I have a question.

How come they never take on some of the smaller names in the Conservative Movement. Places like Right Wing News, J. David Chadwick, and Right Nation attack DU all the time and make some of the most obscene and stupid conservative comments known to man. How come DU give them a free ride while going after Rush Limbaugh and George Bush, whom we already know are morons.

2. jeez, so many conservative idiots, so little time
heck, they could probably do a 'top 100 conservative idiots' every week and still only scratch the surface of conservative idiocy. :)

3. Welcome to DU, skibunny!
I'd suggest nominating organizations or individuals through the Top 10 Conservative Idiots page. This will alert the author.

You also could ask in Ask the Admins what their criteria are for including someone.

Keep in mind most nominees actually did something specifically idiotic to get that distinction -- Rush getting busted for pills and money laundering; Bush saying "Bring it on." If someone's just a stupid moron as a general rule, but didn't do anything above and beyond their moronness, they probably won't make the list.

For instance, Free Republic spews right-wing hate and bashes DU on a regular basis, but they'd have to go above and beyond the call of duty to get put on the idiot list.

4. You're free to nominate whoever you want!
The more, the merrier, in my opinion. If someone isn't getting the conservative idiot treatment, and you feel they're being overlooked, there's a link at the bottom of each week's listing soliciting nominations.

Go for it, and I look forward to seeing as many different idiots paraded for my amusement as possible.

:hi:

6. ewwwwwwwe, I just read Chadwick's front page...
I don't think his gleeful presidential escapade was meant to sound so gay but, it sure does.

Somebody warn the Boy Scouts!

8. Wowzers, is that ever weird.
Edited on Wed Nov-26-03 07:12 PM by SeveneightyWhoa
"I was pumped up during the entire speech. It was a huge turn on in a non sexual way. President Bush made his way to the door while shaking hands of the soldiers and other crowd members. When he came to me I couldn’t help myself. I shook his hand and said:

“You’re the man, Mr. President. Can I get a hug?”

He laughed. I guess he thought I was joking."

So this guy is big into gay chimp sex, huh? Is this how George is raising so much money?

9. I don't waste my time
with such nonsense. Isn't it enough to know that they are out there and have a dark agenda? Instead of worrying about lists we should mobilize like they do. If we did they wouldn't stand a chance.

First, welcome to DU! :hi:

Now that I have to bleach my eyes from reading the insanity that the third graders have put together. I thank you for the links. Generally I go to FR for my daily dose of stupidity, but it is interesting to note, that many of these same people that post on those sites, are FR regulars.

Enjoy your time here at DU!

14. why give credence (and pub) to small-timers?
Edited on Wed Nov-26-03 09:27 PM by lib71
I'm sure they'd love to be listed on a "lib'rul hate list". But, why bother?

edit: thought I was talking about CCR
