Trajan’s Blog

But while enjoying the holiday, remember those who gave their lives so that you can enjoy the freedom.

Anyway, things are a bit slow at TP this holiday weekend, so I suppose I’ll share my latest production. Here’s a look at some of the leading and most influential figures of contemporary ‘progressive’ thought.

It seems some mediocre musician is all bent out of shape because… his song was played on the radio by Michael Savage. Of course, any thing for the cause of bring down America will catch Think Progress’ eye, they therefore ran a post:

Dead Kennedys singer responds to Savage: How the hell does he get away with stuff like this?»

The song Savage played was called “California Uber Alles” and the name of the band was “Dead Kennedys,”

Does this idiot really have any ground from which to complain?

(Hint: No)

The Clinton-Soros-Stalin propaganda machine has decided to add some additional mind-numbing drivel to the already dishonest and misinformed main blog. I’m talking about the “Attackermann” link in the tabs above the header, it’s right between “Wank Room” and ““”"”"Blog”"”"” Fellows.”

Now, the “”"”"”Blog”"”"” Fellows” tab is merely information about how to submit blog posts to ThinkProgress.

But “Wank Room” and “Attackermann” are co-blogs with ThinkProgress. That’s right, ThinkProgress.org is now a Stalinist-triumvirate made up of the Clinton-Soros-Che-Stalin propaganda machine (TP), the “Wank Room” and the “Attackermann” “”"”"”"”"”blogs.”"”"”"”"”"

Since this blog has diligently watched the Clinton-Obama-Soros-Dean-Che-Mao-Stalin-Lenin-Castro-Marx propaganda site ThinkProgress, but the other two may help us to better understand the first.

The Islamic militant propaganda dissemination outlet (in English!) called “URUKnet” usually translates dubious reports and propaganda from Iraq for English and Italian speaking readers.

Well, today I see that they are reproducing a Think Progress (Islamo-Stalinist) post as well as their usual Islamic terrorist, Islamic militant propaganda and lies. You know… to mix things up a bit.

Don’t think that the Islamo-Leftist Alliance exists?

Think again:

Video: O’Reilly: ‘We Didn’t Invade Iraq’

 

Think Progress

 

April 30, 2008

Yesterday, Fox News host Bill O’Reilly made the incredible claim that the United States never invaded Iraq: “We didn’t invade Iraq.” He added, “It was a declaration of war, it was a declaration to enforce the first Gulf War Treaty.”

Heh. Maybe the Islamic militants are hijacking the Left’s political ideology… yeah, that’s it.

But seriously, why is URUKnet posting TP articles?

As promised, here is the first installment of a series of reports which aims to document the deviant, insane, evil, and/or Stalinistic minions of TP.

Some of the most despicable statements seenposted on the left-wing hate-site ThinkProgress have come from an Anti-America, Pro-Terrorism, leftist named Toasterhead.

Proof of Toasterhead’s Anti-Americanism and Pro-Terrorism

Here is a comment which Toasterhead has left on a public blog for all to see:

October 23, 2007 at 9:53 am

Thank you! Coming from someone who said that the U.S. deserved 9/11, I take that as a compliment!

I have repeatedly invited you to prove me wrong, and thus far you have failed to do so. I can only assume, then, that you agree with me.

Salaam!

That’s right. Mr. Hussayn Toasterhead thinks that all the people who died in the September 11, 2001 al-Qaida terrorist attack had what was coming to them. Note the language, he says “deserve,” this implies that Toasterhead not only hates America, but also, he supports al-Qaida.

Don’t believe me, ask him yourself.

Toasterhead and all of his Anti-American, Pro-Terrorism buddies make me sick.

Here at ThinkProgress Watch, we like provide readers with a diverse range of perspectives. It turns out that Trajan and I both have written posts about TP’s on-going struggle to acquire factual information about reality, a task which they rarely, if ever, manage to succeed.

Rachel Maddow, a nobody who pinch-rants for Olby, screwed up just as Olby himself would have, namely, by lifting material from the Clinton/Soros propaganda machine and Left-wing hate-site ThinkProgress.

The Weekly Standard’s Michael Goldfarb explains that: Think Progress Screws Up Again, and indeed, we can assume this is true without even reading the blog, but it would be imprudent to dismiss the radical Leftists who write there merely because of the consistency with which they post lies and propaganda, defying reason, reality, and truth.

Goldfarb states:

Last week Think Progress blogger Amanda accused John McCain of plagiarizing a speech from Admiral Timothy Ziemer only to retract the story hours later.

…

Today she runs a story about North Carolina Rep. Patrick McHenry under the headline: “Rep. McHenry calls U.S. soldier in Iraq a ‘two-bit security guard.’”

Well, it isn’t true. Think Progress provides the video, but at no point does McHenry indicate that the “security guard” is an American soldier. In fact, if Amanda had bothered to call McHenry’s office, she would have learned that the security guard was one of the foreign contractors so reviled by the left–an individual who in any other circumstance Amanda would likely label a “mercenary.”

Mr. Goldfarb, your naïveté is almost charming.

No, Amanda does not label the security guard a mercenary. Instead she does as she and her fellow goons at TP are instructed, namely, spew propaganda at all costs and, if caught red-handed, to do her best to mitigate responsibility for the fabrication, exaggeration, and/or misinformation she posted.

The foreign contractor a despised mercenary at TP? Nay, Mr. Goldfarb, for it is the author herself who unscrupulously proffers in her own defense a point raised at ‘right-wing’ blog HotAir.com, thus, we see a woman deficient in moral principle and lacking the novelty to slither her own way out of the mess in which she finds herself. It is she who is to be despised by men and women of integrity.

Amanda spouts her pathetic apologetic:

Michael Goldfarb reports that the “two-bit security guard” was a foreign contractor, not a member of the military, as both Carolina Politics and Lance Sigmon originally reported. As Ed Morrissey states, “Does this really make it any better? After all, the contractors risk their lives as well, albeit for better compensation.”

Source: TP

So, Mr. Goldfarb, it is not wise to write-off ThinkProgress because of screw-ups like this, and being wrong about McCain, and being wrong about Iran, and being wrong about Spitzer, and being wrong about right-wing reactions to Laura Bush visiting the Middle East… and, well, just being wrong in general. For the ruthless, guerrilla-blogging tactics with which TP operates depend not upon any factual information.

Know Thine Enemy

(Thanks, Melo, for the tip about what’s’ername who’s sitting in for Olby.)

Hi, all!

It’s me, Mr. P, the “gadfly of Think Progress.” I have a quick question: on which TP post did Nico first prohibit 9/11 troofer theories?

Thanks in advance!

TP Watcher “Dean CT” (aka CT_V1 aka Comptroller Version 1) wrote this exposé of the hypocrisy over at Think Progress last September. This is a classic pre-TPWatch post.

Enjoy.

Today, the typing-fingers [syn: talking-heads] over at Thinkprogress.org had their usual William Kristol-directed bashing-piece, the topic being troop numbers in Iraq.

Kristol, editor of The Weekly Standard, opined that troop levels in Iraq would remain at 100,000+ when President George W. Bush leaves office. The TP crew was outraged, responding to a Washington Post article reporting a “bitter clash” between General David H. Petraeus, top U.S. military commander in Iraq, and Admiral William J. Fallon, head of the U.S. Central Command. Like Thinkprogess, Fallon supports a drastic troop cut in Iraq, while Petraeus has his own plans. It’s interesting for the folks at Thinkprogress to take such pride in Admiral Fallon’s judgment, given their previous claim of him being the ”wrong man for the job” at CentCom. From the thread, here’s an advertisement of his judgment:

…….no background in land warfare to oversee these operations.

…….little background in the Middle East or land warfare.

Where’s the basis of his troop-cutting or troop-sustaining judgment? Given Thinkprogress.org’s original worry that Adm. Fallon may be “loyal” to the administration and advocate the “escalation” of forces in Iraq, they took to his lack experience directing ground forces. But now that his opinion has come out in their favor, they’ve allowed that to pass and have instead taken to neglecting Army Gen. Petraeus’s experience. Petraeus is an actual ground commander who has the affiliation and might to have continued the Army-Marine Corps tradition of leadership at CentCom. Since Petraeus has experience in Iraq and is currently assigned there, I wonder:  whose judgment on troop numbers should be of highest consideration?

If it doesn’t fit Thinkprogress.org’s billet of leadership, then it must not be leadership at all.

The crew of ”hard-hitting research and analysis” may find it in their best interests to re-search their archives every once in a while.

Exciting new evidence that points to a mutation in the neurological process or processes that cause the neurological disorder known as “BDS” has been discovered by researchers at TPWatch.

“BDS” is a new phenomenon which some consider a neurological disorder, however, it is still debatable if, in fact, the behavioral deviance emerges from a mind or a brain, for it seems that similar behavior is found in non-cognizant organism, indeed, even what appear to be inorganic entities.

“BDS” is an acronym for “Bush Derangement Syndrome,” and I won’t pretend to know the psychology of the malfunction however, there are plenty of resources on the web that can help.

Dr. Sanity, for example, explains:

The number of things that Bush has been blamed for in this world since 9/11 (even acts of God like Tsunamis, hurricanes and other natural disasters) is the stuff of major comedy. You name the horrible event, and he is identified as the etiologic agent.

He is blamed when he does something (anything) and he is blamed when he does nothing. He is blamed for things that ocurred even before he was President, as well as everything that has happened since. He is blamed for things he says; and for things he doesn’t say.

The syndrome has been found all over the world, from the Middle East, to Australia. However, one of the major factors in the outbreak of this disease is the brain-washing done by malicious propaganda organizations of the American Left. One such organization is Think Progress.

But now, with Bush’s term soon coming to an end, Think Progress has shifted, mutated if you will, and the programming with which it indoctrinates has changed as well. It is no longer focused on President Bush but rather on War Hero and Presidential candidate Senator John McCain.

This is an exciting time for we can observe the mutation in its intermediate stages, for example, in the beginning of February the barrier that separates one individual from another was blurred in the minds of Think Progress readers (and this is no complicated concept, it’s merely my way of saying that TP argued that John McCain (J) shared enough characteristics with George W. Bush (W) that J ≡W). Read about it in this post: VIDEO: The Conservative Agenda For 2008 — A Third Bush Term

Now that this transition has been made (from Bush to McCain), TP can begin spreading McCain hatred by inoculating the weak-minded TP readers with the seeds of MDS, that’s right, McCain Derangement Syndrome.

The team of researchers at TPWatch have already documented the irrational hatred toward McCain that is indicative of a mutation in the ’psychological’ or ‘neurological’ processes that had once been responsible for the BDS. Examples include:

1. Lies about McCain
   • TP Lies about McCain and the Mortgage Mess 

The Marxists at Think Progress distorted McCain’s attitude to this Crisis.

Krugman On Bush-McCain Response To Housing Crisis: ‘It’s Like Katrina’ To Say ‘Let People Suffer’

They use Stalinist NY Times writer Krugman’s comments as if it’s the truth. It’s a lie! McCain has said that we must make sure that we don’t bail out Speculators.

2. Daily hit-pieces about McCain and his staff:

Think Progress Blames McCain Adviser for Mortgage Mess

Leftwing Hatesite Think Progress continues smearing McCain. Their latest Headline:

Two McCain aides lobbied for ’shady’ mortgage lender

This is totally ridiculous. The piece goes on to blame McCain adviser Phil Gramm for creating the Mortgage mess. How can one person cause this mess?

3. And an un-natural obsession with McCain:

1. TP Hitpiece on McCain
2. Think (McCain) Progress again bashed McCain.
3. Another McCain attack by Think Progress

All of this evidence points to a mutation of the standard BDS behavior, which we have come to expect from TP, to what can be described as symptoms of MDS. Trajan from the TPWatch research team rightly states that,

Think Progress should be renamed McCain Watch.

Because, 

They have launched another attack, the 3rd for today!

By Konservo (aka Mr. President)

Having been a TP watcher for over a year now I have seen countless examples of what can only be described as a form of Stalinism coming from the Clinton/Soros propaganda outlet.

Well, one day at the Little Green Footballs website folks noticed that at

the San Francisco Chronicle and their web site SFGate.com are deceiving their readers through comment-deletion trickery. (Investigate the Media)

If you make a comment on an article posted at SFGate, and if the site moderators then subsequently delete your comment for whatever reason, it will only appear as deleted to the other readers. HOWEVER, your comment will NOT appear to be deleted if viewed from your own computer! The Chronicle’s goal is to trick deleted commenters into not knowing their comments were in fact deleted.

After reading this I immediately realized that Think Progress too, was pulling the Stalinistic trick. And I have the screen shots to prove it:
