Right-Wing Blog Report Jan 24
Submitted by Jerimee on Thu, 01/24/2008 - 11:20pm.
Ok this is going to be quick and dirty.
While no doubt the angry words of North Carolina fundamentalists deserve more than a cursory glance, a glance is all I've got to spare for this lot.
Let us venture where men have bested their better angels, and partisan passion has broken every bond of affection:
Red Clay Citizen (Art Pope)
- We like our immigration push polls, now go away.
- Decades of GOP support for predatory lending has nothing to do with the foreclosure crisis, no really.
- Fetal homicide is a great issue for Republicans to use for partisan gain.
Thunder Pig (Is this guy part of the Stompers? His website is slow and plays an annoying audio clip.)
- Kucinich drops out.
- Why isn't there more economic relief for wealthy people? I mean, c'mon, we're the ones who are really hurting here.
- Is it okay to demonize Saul Alinsky? Let me make a half-hearted attempt.
Stephen Bainbridge
Sister Toldjah
- Bush never lied. Not even once. George Soros sucks. The media is liberal.
- Hillary and Edwards in secret partnership to defeat Obama. Hey did you know Edwards once got an expensive haircut?!!!
- Rush Limbaugh hates John McCain.
Environment NC (Art Pope, not to be confused with the Environment North Carolina that split from NCPIRG)
NC Republican Roundtable
- Abortion is important to precisely 79.2% of our readers.
- Global warming is crap and so are social programs.
Brent Woodcox (NCGOP Communications Person)
- Romney sucks.
- Woodcox heart McCain.
- More love for McCain.
- More hate for Romney.
hangrightpolitics
- Real Republicans are in favor of global warming.
- None of the GOP presidential candidates are anti-choice enough (except Ron Paul).
NC Rumors (redesign, they moved to Drupal)
- Repost of Rob Christensen talking about how McCrory screwed up his entry into the GOP Governor's primary.
- Daniel Johnson raises a historic amount of money in preparation to defeat Patrick McHenry.
Ogre’s Politics and Views (this my new favorite blog)
- Universal Healthcare will make you fat.
- Government is STRONGLY opposed to home-schooling.
- In which Ogre looks up the voter registration of every member of Les Merritt's staff. (84% are not GOP.)
Locker Room (Art Pope)
- Kucinich Haiku
- The Best Way to Improve the Economy? Buy a Handgun.
- Don't bother trying to do anything about predatory lending; you'll just be wasting your time.
Cold Fury
- Swiftboat Vets were right. So was Goebbels.
- People who are concerned about the environment are sanctimonious twits.
- John McCain is a party stooge, and the Republican Party isn't fundamentalist enough.
Please let me know if there are some other blogs I ought to be checking out.

Excellent, Jerimee
We should do something special with all this hard work!
Bumped to a feature in BlueNC Bulletins
thanks
I'm really surprised by how much hatred there is for the "Global Warming Hoax."
Especially since it seems to exist on most rightwing blogs. I didn't know there were that many people passionately committed to denying global warming.
This might be a good line of attack against moderate Republicans.
Ask them, "Do you believe in Global Warming?"
If they say "yes" they lose the 10% of North Carolinians that makes up the GOP base. If they say "no" they lose the other 90% of North Carolina.

It looks like Stephen Bainbridge is the exception to this.
He posted something this morning about the conservative movement adopting some conservation positions.

If moderate repubs are the target, I would reframe the
question to:
"Do you think humanity has a responsibility to care for God's creation?"
And start the conversation that way.
Person County Democrats
Jerimee, do you get any sense which blogs are the most active?
In terms of comments and original content?
It seems most of them that I have ventured into don't even have one comment left under them.
Sister Toldjah and Cold Fury have audiences
Sister Toldjah seems mostly to copy and paste content and then add some of her own observations. I'm not that critical of this since it's what do most of the time too.
Cold Fury has original, and rather obscene, content.
Both these blogs are fairly well commented.

You are a brave, brave man
Do you feel the need to take a hot shower and scrub with a wire brush after reading this garbage? Thanks for looking so we don't have to, Jerimee.
I read some of this stuff Jerimee.. I am more dedicated today.
America must never become subject to this draconian mentality. The Right Wing is what is wrong in America.
