Andrew Breitbart tries to whip up the right wing bloggers into a frenzy over his new conspiracy theory about "comments" put by liberals on right-wing blogs which appears in the Moonie Times. This meme is on Memeorandum and is so laughable that I spit out my coffee:

A digital war has broken out, and the conservative movement is losing. Read the comment sections of right-leaning blogs, news sites and social forums, and the evidence is there in ugly abundance. Internet hooligans are spewing their talking points to thwart the dissent of the newly-out-of-power.

We must not let that go unanswered.

Uninvited Democratic activists are on a mission to demoralize the enemy - us. They want to ensure that President Obama is not subject to the same coordinated, facts-be-damned, multimedia takedown they employed over eight long years to destroy the presidency - and the humanity - of George W. Bush.

OK, Andrew. The beginning to your article is as ridiculous as the propaganda that you put forth. First of all, President Bush destroyed his own administration and the GOP. I don't think I need to list what he's done to this country and to the world that led to his own demise and turned the leadership of the GOP into Rush Limbaugh's hands. He lied to the American people to start a war in Iraq, if you've forgotten. All without our help. We just happened to notice -- unlike, say, you.

Breitbart then goes on to say this:

So now that the right is vanquished and thoroughly out of power, why doesn't it learn from its conquerors and employ similar tactics? The answer is obvious. The right, for the most part, embraces basic Judeo-Christian ideals and would not promote nor defend the propaganda techniques that were perfected in godless communist and socialist regimes. The current political and media environment crafted by supposedly idealistic Mr. Obama resembles Hugo Chavez's Venezuela more than John F. Kennedy's America.

Ahhh, conservatives don't act like trolls because of GOD. This is indeed a revelation. However, I'm afraid Karl Rove missed the sermon. Maybe he can ask David Vitter about his behavior, since he's supposedly a good, diaper-wearing Christian man. Anyway, if what Breitbart is saying is true, then John McCain has a lot to answer for.

Why didn't Andrew complain when McCain's website targeted C&L and asked McCain supporters to come here and try to disrupt my site?

Here is John McCain, the GOP's hope for the presidency asking his followers to attack C&L and then awarding points for the people who do it the most times. McCain's camp not only attacked liberal blogs, but he was begging them to do it. Or was it a failing of his Judeo-Christian ideals? Where's the outrage, you hypocrite?

Colbert mocks Bill Kristol's concern trolling

When Stephen wants an unbiased and honest opinion of how Hillary Clinton's speech went over with Democrats on Tuesday in Denver, who better to ask than Bill Kristol, right?

COLBERT: "Now, of course, to judge convention speeches, I always turn to Bill Kristol. Monday night he said this about Michelle Obama's  speech."

KRISTOL: "I thought it was sort of generic."

COLBERT: "And, as for Senator Clinton's praise for Barack Obama, here's how Kriristol described that."

KRISTOL: "Generic. Could have been applied to any other democrat."

COLBERT: What a wordsmith. Kristol's description about Democratic speeches are so.... what's the word? Interchangeable? Non-descript? A kind of cheap knockoff of a brand name product? It'll come to me.
