Subway, the Anti-Rush Limbaugh Boycott and the Sad Debacle That Is #UniteBlue

Posted on | July 22, 2013 | 171 Comments

A late lunch with 10-year-old daughter Reagan at Subway today.

The entirely negative and destructive agenda of the Left — they hate America, and if you love America, they hate you — has turned its focus to attempting to destroy Rush Limbaugh by boycotting his advertisers. The so-called “Stop Rush” campaign was recently commercialized by Democrat Party consultant Zack Green, who on Friday put up a post called “Boycott @Subway until they dump Rush Limbaugh” at his 140Elect.com firm’s site. Zack Green is also the founder of “Unite Blue” (@UniteBlue or #UniteBlue), about which he had this to say in February:

In August of 2012 we launched UniteBlue.com to connect the Left on Twitter. I wasn’t interested in another top-down organization. UniteBlue is a bottom-up attempt to empower activists to push their agendas. . . .
We are growing rapidly, would love to bring others on board. . . . We are also in the process of becoming a 501c4 non-profit.

The anti-Subway/anti-Limbaugh campaign would seem to be a demonstration project by Green intended to showcase the effectiveness of (a) his online prowess as a Twitter consultant, and (b) his group, Unite Blue. If he can take out this one advertiser, Green wins — he’s the Big Dog and, presumably, he gets more consulting clients.

Well . . . Hello, massive fail: Rush Limbaugh has millions of radio listeners, while Green’s supposedly influential online organization @UniteBlue has only about 18,000 followers on Twitter (fewer followers than I have as an individual) and Rush’s listeners quickly put together their own “Rush to Subway” campaign that led to crowded dining rooms and lines out the door today at lunch time.

There is a problem that the anti-Limbaugh crowd can’t seem to understand: Bad causes attract bad people. Trying to shut down the most successful talk-radio program in America — to silence dissent against the Democrat-Media Complex — is a very bad cause indeed.

Is it therefore surprising to know that one of the key activists in #UniteBlue — indeed, a board member — turned out to be a drug dealer who was fighting child pornography charges? William “Bill” Talley was exposed in May after Zack Green and #UniteBlue tried to quietly dump him from the board and hush up the scandal. On May 29, Talley was sentenced to prison at a hearing in Nashville:

Detective Chad Gish testified to THOUSANDS of images and videos William Talley had in his possession, including children as young as THREE . . .
Detective Gish also testified to credit card receipts found on Talley’s PC as proof he had been buying access to child pornography . . .
Detective Gish: “These videos were so reprehensible. A three year old girl screaming while she was being raped”

Are we really surprised that a drug dealer who buys child pornography of 3-year-old girls getting raped is a progressive activist?

And are we surprised that people like that hate Rush Limbaugh?

Sure, Rush sometimes says things that are controversial. But given a choice between America’s Truth Detector and scum like “Unite Blue,” I think decent people know what side they’re on.

Also, those Subway sandwiches were delicious.

Baby-Hater @AmandaMarcotte Rather Laments the Survival of the Royal Baby

Posted on | July 22, 2013 | 45 Comments

The World’s Most Wretched Woman™ has further disgraced herself by making grossly inappropriate Twitter comments about the birth of Kate Middleton’s baby. When informed by sane people that her comments were, at the very least, in poor taste, @AmandaMarcotte immediately doubled down, then tripled down, accusing conservatives of caring about babies only before they are born.

This is one of the Left’s stale and familiar attacks on pro-lifers, an attack would have no validity even if any of these leftists ever did anything for children except vote Democrat. (This counts as “charity” to them: Vote for Democrats who will create bureaucratic programs spending other people’s tax money, and you are thereby virtuous.)

As a father of six children, of course, I have done many things to help them. Just today, I took my youngest two kids to Subway — #RushToSubway! — for a meal that cost $21, which is $21 more than @AmandaMarcotte has ever spared from her own bitter selfish life to do anything for a child. Her hatred of babies is so notorious that some have begun to suspect that Amanda Marcotte volunteers at abortion clinics on weekends so that she can personally stab their brains out and feast on their quivering warm flesh.

She is an evil heartless bitch, and I’d love to tell her so, but @AmandaMarcotte blocked me long ago. Maybe if you will Tweet her to tell her what a hateful person she is, she’ll block you, too.

UPDATE: It was Ace of Spades who remarked a couple of years ago that no public controversy is complete until Amanda Marcotte makes a complete fool of herself about it, and today Ace is grateful for Amanda’s early contribution:

Thank you, Amanda, for providing your typical unhinged goofball stupidity. I’ve been looking at this stupid story for 40 minutes figuring “How the hell do I even cover this?” Well, you provided the answer.

Exactly. What should a blogger say on such an occasion? But now we have the appropriate response: “Shut up, Amanda Marcotte!”

Of course, that response is good for any occasion . . .

Was Zimmerman ‘Profiling’?

Posted on | July 22, 2013 | 40 Comments

Patterico has a long post today rebutting claims that George Zimmerman was engaged in “racial profiling.” The simple facts of the situation were this: Black teenage boys were committing burglaries at the townhouse community, Zimmerman had been appointed captain of the neighborhood watch, and this resulted in him making a number of 911 calls reporting suspicious activity by black teenage boys.

As with so much else in this story, the truth was actually known — or at least, it was knowable, if anyone cared to look it up — because the press  reported it. Reuters, April 25, 2012:

[O]ne black neighbor of the Zimmermans said recent history should be taken into account.
“Let’s talk about the elephant in the room. I’m black, OK?” the woman said, declining to be identified because she anticipated backlash due to her race. She leaned in to look a reporter directly in the eyes. “There were black boys robbing houses in this neighborhood,” she said. “That’s why George was suspicious of Trayvon Martin.”

This may or may not change anyone’s basic opinion of the situation, but there is no excuse for accusations based on ignorance. If black teenagers are committing crimes in your neighborhood, and you report suspected crimes to the cops, this is not “racial profiling.”

UPDATE: The pointless “debate” I bemoaned Sunday — “How Much of a Damn Should I Give?” — continues unabated. Sean Hannity reacted to President Obama’s speech Friday by referring to Obama’s admitted youthful drug use. Joe Scarborough reacted this morning:

 

Neither of these comments were especially helpful, but Scarborough’s pious scolding was probably less helpful.

UPDATE I: Aaron Worthing rebuts another false claim, that Zimmerman “profiled” a 7-year-old boy. I’m reminded of what Ronald Reagan once said: “The problem with our liberal friends is not that they are ignorant, it’s that they know so much that isn’t true.”

Epic New Failure: DailyKos Re-Banishes Deranged Cyberstalker Bill Schmalfeldt

Posted on | July 22, 2013 | 71 Comments

Bill Schmalfeldt: Victim of a right-wing smear job?

“Attempting to convince a madman that he is out of his mind is a hopeless task . . .”
— Robert Stacy McCain, June 16

Bill Schmalfeldt can never seem to comprehend that the main cause — if not the only cause — of his problems is Bill Schmalfeldt.

Let us agree that a troll must cross a high threshold of obnoxiousness to be deemed Too Disgusting for Daily Kos, yet Schmalfeldt cleared the mark with surprising ease, thanks to his extraordinarily perverse discourse about butt sex. (C’mon, click this link. Double-dog dare ya.)

Banned from DKos in May 2012 as “Bill Schmalfeldt,” he attempted to return to DKos as “Patriot Ombudsman,” reposting something tedious he had published elsewhere about his legal battle with John Hoge. Schmalfeldt prefaced this weird tale (referring to himself in third-person) by describing it as a “story of a reputation ruined beyond repair by right wing nut jobs for no reason other than they wanted to.” Schmalfeldt claimed to be the victim of “a coordinated smear attack by the blowflies that buzz around the dessicated corpse of Andrew Breitbart.” And he included a screen-cap of my July 12 post, “Deranged Cyberstalker Bill Schmalfeldt Inspires Epic ‘Downfall’ Parody Video.”

What he was attempting to do, as any psychologist would recognize, is blame-shifting: Bill is not responsible for the bad thing that happened; Bill is a helpless victim of what they did to him. (For those not familiar with mental health problems, it may help to read about “Locus of Control,” and also to understand that a disturbance in the sense of agency is typical of schizophrenia.)

Only examination by a trained clinical specialist, of course, could determine if Bill Schmalfeldt is suffering from mental illness, but you don’t need a Ph.D. to conclude that he is nuts, wacko, berserk, demented, zany, bonkers, batshit crazy and cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs.

Insofar as Bill Schmalfeldt had his “reputation ruined,” it was he who ruined it, not any “right wing nut jobs.” There were no “coordinated smear attacks,” but merely a series of responses to Schmalfeldt’s own obnoxious actions. If Schmalfeldt imagined that he could insult, disparage and harass others without the targets of these attacks ever reacting to defend themselves, well, he’s crazy.

But I think we’ve already established that, eh?

The origins and history of this episode are easily determined. On June 3, 2012, four days after Brett Kimberlin had Aaron Walker briefly arrested at a hearing in Maryland, Bill Schmalfeldt popped up on Twitter trying to bait Walker into commenting on Kimberlin. This coincidence — the judge on May 29, 2012, ordered Walker not to write about Kimberlin — escaped my notice until Walker pointed it out.

Was this “coordinated”? Had someone acting at Kimberlin’s behest urged Schmalfeldt to interrogate Walker, in an attempt to get Walker to violate the judge’s order, so as to provide Kimberlin with a new pretext for legal action against Walker? I have never claimed that this was the case, although Walker himself is certainly suspicious.

Let others speculate about motives, I merely describe what happened. Over the course of several months, Bill Schmalfeldt’s online harassment escalated, and always directed at antagonists of Kimberlin.

At one point (during Thanksgiving weekend), Schmalfeldt sent me more than 200 hostile Twitter messages in the span of 48 hours. But certainly the worst was Schmalfeldt’s maniacal online attacks against Lee Stranahan, a hateful spree that included shockingly vile writings about Stranahan’s wife and children. Stranahan eventually filed charges of harassment against Schmalfeldt, but the charges were dismissed. However, because John Hoge had given Stranahan a ride from the airport (Stranahan flew from Texas to Baltimore to file charges), Schmalfeldt then turned his obsessive rage against Hoge, which led eventually to Hoge getting a peace order against Schmalfeldt.

Schmalfeldt initiated the conflict, Schmalfeldt escalated the conflict, and at any time Schmalfeldt could have ended the conflict simply by ceasing his relentless attacks against Kimberlin’s enemies. For Schmalfeldt then to use Daily Kos to claim that he was victimized “by right wing nut jobs for no reason other than they wanted to” expresses a belief so far from reality that it can only be called delusional.

And what do we call people with delusional beliefs? Crazy.

Schmalfeldt has now been banned again at Daily Kos, and some of the comments by the DKos regulars are enlightening :

Anyone wondering why this troll was banned the first time should read [Schmalfeldt’s May 2012 post about anal sex].
He posts stupid attempts at humor, often offensive, and gets pissy when he is not heralded as a comedic genius.
When Tree Climbers objected to the language of the POS excerpted above, merely asking for a trigger warning, he mocked them and tried to “out” their charity.
Cried about it in another diary as well.

He was horrible in the comments and deserves no mercy this go round.

i recall he wanted to do a story on a fellow kossack (something about exposing things at her place of work). he harassed and pressured her, and clearly ‘stalked’ her. demeaned her…because she wouldn’t give him the story that would likely elevate him to the levels of woodward/bernstein…or something.
creepy.

Oh shit! Did anyone’s creepy meter go off? Mine sure did. Writing about yourself in third person should automatically come with a warning label.

These are comments from stalwart progressives, not “right wing nut jobs,” not by anyone with any political sympathy for Aaron Walker or Lee Stranahan or any of Schmalfeldt’s other targets. The fact is that Schmalfeldt’s online behavior has been atrocious enough that he has made himself persona non grata even among his own ideological allies. No “coordinated smear” was involved. Bill Schmalfeldt is just crazy.

But I’m pretty sure I mentioned that earlier . . .

COPS SHOOT CRIMINALS; COMMUNISTS HATE COPS

Posted on | July 21, 2013 | 47 Comments

It’s not much more complicated than that. When Donald Douglas began Tweeting out photos from an anti-police protest in Anaheim, California, I was initially confused: Who were these victims of “police brutality” the demonstrators were naming? In a word, “Criminals“:

The protest in Anaheim was on the one-year anniversary of the police shooting of Manuel Diaz, a 25-year-old gang member known as “Stomper,” whose death was ruled justified by the Orange County District Attorney’s office. Diaz had an extensive record of drug dealing and violent crime. At Sunday’s protest, some activists held a banner demanding that California Attorney General Kamala Harris prosecute for “murder” an Oakland police officer who fatally shot 18-year-old Alan Blueford in May 2012. Police said the officer fired at Blueford, who was on probation for a burglary conviction, after the high-school senior pointed a pistol at police.

You can read the rest at Viral Read, but the photos were taken by Donald Douglas, so please also read his account at American Power.

UPDATE: Irony? Yeah, we’ve got irony:

Sweetheart, you’re not a victim. You are not the oppressed proletariat. Now, run along and fix me a sandwich.
