Any remaining doubts about just how deeply detatched wingnuts are from Reality should pretty much be obliterated by this piece by Christian Toto at the far Rightwing website “Human Events.”
I’m on the road today, so no time to offer details and/or direct rebuttal, but I suspect that, by now, BRAD BLOG readers should be able to both debunk and create your own punchline for just about each and every graf!
I’m also pretty sure that Toto wrote that article with a straight face (it’s not April 1 still, right?), as incredible as that might sound. I don’t believe I’ve read any story of late, in regard to the utterly debunked and disgraceful ACORN “Pimp” Hoax — even from the pseudonymous rightwing blogger, O’Keefe/Breitbart dead-ender and (shockingly) L.A. County Dep. DA Patrick “Patterico” Frey — which is so singularly disconnected from Reality.
A “Pulitzer Prize” for the fully disgraced and accused federal criminal James O’Keefe for fake reporting? That’d be roughly the equivalent of awarding the Nobel Peace Prize to Timothy McVeigh or a Grammy Award to Richard Nixon for “Best Spoken Word” for his superb work on the Watergate Tapes!
Fun stuff. Crazy. Batshit crazy. But still fun!
Jesus H Christ. These retards are living on Venus. O’Keefe is heading to hail (for at least a spell, he’s got the best lawyers his rich family can buy). AS IF he gets a Pulitzer.
The right has no idea what real journalism is.
What’s a Toto?
This is sad, this is what we’re up against.
btw…we were told today, according to all these TeaBagger polls, that the TeaBaggers are actually more educated than the average American.
So riddle me this: what’s with all those talking points that “intelligent elitists” are “making fun” of TeaBaggers??? Can someone explain that?
And what about all the shills here always saying that? Don’t make fun of the stupid TeaBaggers. Remember all that?
Well???
We’re “talking down” to them because we’re more intelligent, and we shouldn’t do that. Remember all that?
Well???
And the polls said they have higher than average income and they’re mostly older whites.
Soooooooo………….
They’re not poor, stupid hicks we shouldn’t be making fun of…they’re well off older white people!
wtf???
They’re not “misguided hicks”!!!
Speaking of Patterico … what ever happened to the big expose he kept promising that would show Brad & Boelhert were lying about the ACORN/OKeefe controversy. Instead, once the Cal AG report came out, Pat seems to have crawled under a rock.
Hi Brad,
Milk this one for all it’s worth, after all, there isn’t a whole lot going on in the world right now other than the ACORN controversy.
Didn’t Toto get spun around in a tornado? Could explain his dizziness.
The problem for me with using the word controversy is that it implies some actual dispute of facts, as opposed to a made up dispute.
Good attitude! It’s got to be the only way to keep from really losing your shit on these idiots.
Hello Tunga,
to answer your question What’s a Toto?” I have a Toto. It is a Japanese Manufacturer of high end toilets. This seems fitting don’t you agree as the subject is what flows to our sewer or septic systems.
If the teabaggers are well educated, well off, and white, and they’re OK with their taxes going to medicare and medicaid and social security – as the polls showed – I can only come to one conclusion: racism. It’s only logical. Black president. There is ONLY ONE ANSWER!!! Think about it.

Umm, did O’Keefe or anyone else connected with this “news” story submit it for consideration to the Pulitzer organization? I mean, don’t you have to apply for these awards (or does Pulitzer read every story in every publication before deciding on winners)?
Jeez!
I heard they’re entering the story for the pullputzer prize. I think they’ll win.
The teabaggers. Smart and educated. Not.
I have no doubt they lied about their education and wealth.
Wouldn’t you if people were calling you stupid, poor and ignorant redneck.

Sadly, it is also akin to Obama receiving the peace prize while escalating the Afghanistan war.
