Me, last week, discussing the Larry Sinclair arrest at the National Press Club:
Question: Who will be the first to claim that if you speak out against Obamessiah, you get arrested? The Free Republic or No Quarter?
Via Sullivan, this from NoQuarter (I refuse to link them):
Tonight political prisoner Larry Sinclair is spending his fourth night in the DC Jail, the victim of a Gestapo-style enemies’ list operation carried out just three blocks from the White House last Wednesday afternoon.
Like shooting fish in a barrel. And just because it is so awesome, let’s revisit the Reason recap:
It had been a difficult morning for Sinclair. The Politico’s Ben Smith published a short feature on Sinclair’s 27-year criminal record of fraud and petty crimes; Greta Van Susteren linked the story, and told viewers/readers why she has ignored him. “While the internet is a great communication and educational tool, it is also viral when it comes to smearing people,” she wrote, prompting commenters to call her a cover-up artist and an agent of Barack Obama. It got worse when Sinclair’s lawyer Montgomery Sibley—whose license is currently suspended in D.C. and Florida—showed up in a kilt and told reporters that his above-average endowment made slacks tight and uncomfortable. The Rev. James David Manning, who gained web celebrity in April for a YouTube’d sermon in which he called Obama a “long-legged mack daddy,” sat in the crowd of 50 or so with his family. He didn’t take questions.
That, much like Hunter S. Thompson’s Nixon Obit, never gets old.

There’s a thread on this over at MyDD. I saw this quote in the comments:

Ironically these people believe Obama supporters are nutcases.

You could post a thread on this every day and it would only get funnier over time. And No Quarter being first to the stupid. Was there ever any doubt about that. And the Kilt thing is so original that some kind of comedic award is in order.

I see Flowbee and his minions are pining hard for Amy Winehouse “We Need Drug Rehab” award.
Seriously, when your lawyer shows up in a skirt and brags about his third leg, you’ve just got to recheck the website to make sure you’re not on The Onion or GayManToday.com….

Has anyone considered that Larry Johnson is doing this as a GOP mole to make Democrats look bad? He used to run with the Republicans before the Plaime affair, right?

You gotta admit, the guy has melon sized balls to show up at a press conference to defend this client wearing a uniskirt then making that statement to reporters no doubt with a straight face.

I watched Mother Night, based on one of my favorite Vonnegut novels, and with Nick Nolte, the other night. If you’ve read or seen it, Sinclair and his lawyer would have fit right in with the American Nazis who save Howard Campbell. Too fucking hilarious. I wonder if he wears the kilt in courtrooms. “I’m sorry, Your Honor, I have to cuz my dick’s so big.” Fuck.

Um. Well. You see. Obama’s Black Panzers slipped crack into Sibley’s coffee, which made him say that crazy … Hey, there’s nothing wrong with a guy wearing a skirt and bragging about his wedding … Just SHUT UP YOU FACISTS!

The thought of that side bar both repulses and fascinates me at the same time.

Where did “Agent Flowbee” originate? I’ve seen people use it in various places, but I don’t know where it first was used.

I think it started at Rumproast. Check the Rumproast link to the right.

If you wander over there now, they’re also rehashing the birth certificate debate. Are you sure it’s not a hoax site now, like Landover Baptist?

I commented on an open thread about this post at No Quarter, I was busy inserting random insane comments there (I figured they wouldn’t stand out), but was finally busted and had my comments removed for mocking someone trying to raise money for Larry Sinclair on paypal.

Well, I wear a kilt sometimes, for Highland games and Scottish dancing, but the boys never feel particularly cramped in trousers. Going regimental does give one a feeling of liberation. The ladies like it, too.

That pun just kilt me.
I’m not gonna wear a kilt. I’m a girl lawyer. It would look….fetishy.

Yes! Something IS wrong. Obama hopped in his time machine (that he stole from victims of his Black Panzer Gestapo) went back in time to before he was born and using a combination of threats, drugs and sexual wiles to force the U.S. to adopt the terrible citizenship laws that would allow him to run for office!1
Wowee zowee. Maybe the FringeLoons will give us a rousing chorus of “Go back to where you came from!” before they break out the N word.

Yeah, I can no longer comment at NQ, either. I used to be a regular, back before Larry & Susan went insane, and have stopped in a couple of times to tell the new group that they’re all nuts. Now I can’t post anymore, even if I change my name. Although, really, why bother? It’s like trying to argue with the inmates. It is arguing with the inmates. I mean, the state of Hawaii printed out a fresh copy of Obama’s birth certificate and they’re all having seizures? They’ve all gone over to tinfoil land and there’s no getting them back.

Yes, he wears pants, so he must also be a woman. I think Jon Stewart called that about a week back.

You might be able to fetch a new IP which will allow you to post there again. If we don’t fight against the Hawaii Statehood Deniers, our state could be next.

Huh, I can’t post at NQ either. Dang, the other Hillary deadender blogs require you to register, so no more mocking the nuts.

Theoretically, I would prefer Torbutton for Firefox in conjunction with the Vidalia/Privoxy bundle.

If it were only worth my while to change my IP every other day for the pleasure of an hour’s posting to the loons on NQ.
I fully expect them to go after Oregon statehood sometime soon. After all, we were one of the last to vote for the MUP. But Crazy Susan lives in Washington state, and she’s going to have to disenfranchise herself first. The early polling shows Washington leaning toward the MUP by a much higher margin than Oregon.

Random Asshole
Ah-hah! I’ve figured it out!
The real reason they don’t want to release his birth certificate is because it’ll show Barack is actually only 23 years old, hence, ineligible to run for president! It’s a giant age conspiracy, not an ethnicity conspiracy!
Grumpy Code Monkey
So it’s not just me, then.
I commented on the Larry Sinclair saga, pointing out that the reporters at the presser thought he was full of shit and posted some quotes from the Telegraph to illustrate (on the details that matter, he was vague, on the details that didn’t matter, he demonstrated extraordinary recall, etc.) An hour later the comment was gone. I figured I must have popped a synapse and didn’t verify that the comment actually got posted, so I created a new one. An hour later, that one was gone too. I tried a third time.
After that, I couldn’t submit comments anymore.
And I swear to $DIETY, I wasn’t trolling; I was simply pointing out that some reporters were questioning the veracity of Sinclair’s statements. But God forbid you question the narrative; dissenting voices will not be heard.
That’s part of why I think NQ is a true ratfuck operation; Flowbee was pimping Hills because that was the candidate the Goopers wanted, the one they were prepared for, and the one they felt confident they could manipulate either into losing outright or governing as a Republican Lite, and whipping Hillary’s real supporters into a psychotic froth is part of the plan.
Barack Motherfucking HUSSEIN Obama scares the living hell out of them, which is why they’re throwing the kitchen sink at him (uppity bi-sexual drug-abusing Marxist Black Panther Terrorist Muslim Negro and his racist family and friends). The cognitive dissonance is so thick you need an aqualung to breathe.

Delia
I really don’t think NQ started out as a ratfucking organization. Larry started out as a friend of Valerie Plame Wilson’s, and he was really, really pissed off by that whole affair and the way the Wilsons were treated. NQ used to be a really good site for information on national security and military strategy and how the Bushies were screwing up that aspect of national life. He linked to a lot of interesting stuff I would otherwise have known nothing about Susan Hu/SusanUnPC came over from the GOS and she used to be pretty good as well. There was a really good community of people who posted there. They certainly had a right to pick Hillary as their candidate. But even before the start of the primary season, Susan started taking the attitude that all the candidates who weren’t Hillary were sleazebags and scum. By the time Edwards dropped out she allowed that he was a fine human being, but that was only to win over his supporters to Hill. After that point, the site became pretty much what it is now. One tabloid story after another on the villainy of Obama. Once in a while they still did one of Larry’s national security stories, but all the old commenters have run away. So Larry and Susan do more extreme stories and they attract more extreme whackjob commenters, and they let the whackjobs write stories, which they post . . . so pretty so they’re designing Hillary posters that show her as the Sun Goddess and they’re trying to prove that Obama isn’t eligible to run for President because Hawaii isn’t a state, etc.
