    Politics isn't everything. An alien concept these days, obviously.
    Imagine a political forum talking politics.

    So random blogger = Republican/conservative attempts to spin. Ok.
    then this will be incessantly emailed to the faithful, only to be taken up by ever more prominent talking heads in the conservative movement, until it is GOP canon by the time the election rolls around.
    (shrugs)

    If it doesn't happen, fine, I will readily accede to a bit of cynicism when it comes to the right-wing in this country.

    If it does happen as I think it will, be ready for the "I told you so" post or two.

    The first stage has happened, as predicted, and we have a good year + for the rest of it to pan out or not.

    I missed my chance at demonstrable prescience. Dammit.

    Blogger posts something discrediting President Obama's role in the OSB takedown.
    Resident enlightened progressives burst out in touchdown dances.


    I think you're boned on the canon aspect, dude.

    Random blogger = patdollard.com

    Front page posts May 4:

    "Obama Decline of America"--- WSJ

    "Obama hesitated" (thread story)

    "There is no doubt that Obama is a bigger threat to Israel than Osama was"

    "Leftist Journos complain about Osama "assassination".

    Conservative viewpoint, or not, TB?

    I think Teysha's point is that it's not quite evidence of a mainstream backlash. If one conservative's viewpoint is sufficient, I could show you several Facebook posts indicating the tide was already turning at 11pm Sunday night.

    You have only to see the first comment to the article to see how this will play out. I guarantee you this article will be forwarded ad infinitum through emails and forums, as it already has.

    It will be picked up by the usual suspects, Limbaugh, et al., within a few weeks or months at the outside, with plenty of time before the election.

    That is how the new media work.

    You see this as boutons-style spin, but it is merely how things work these days.

    Not yet.

    Give it some time, and I am pretty sure it will be.

    I have gone on record though as making a reasonably falsifiable prediction. Whoot.

    On that note, back to work.

    Who the is Pat Dollard? Relevance?

    "Obama Decline of America"....this has exactly what to do with the OBL
    takeout?

    "Obama hesitated"...see Who the is Pat Dollard?

    "There is no doubt that Obama is a bigger threat to Israel than Osama was"...you do know this was a quote from Aryeh Eldad of Israel, right? Relevance?

    Methinks you give patdollard.com a bit too much credit.

    No, it's not the Conservative viewpoint. Is Michael Moore's unhinged ascertations the Progressive viewpoint? Get real.

    So, they couldn't figure out how to make the White House scanner work without adding OCR layers. good call.

    What the ? Obama even manages to screw up the crowning achievement of his presidency by not releasing the photos. He owes it to the people for the freedom and money that murdering bas cost each and every one of us.

    Maybe if Obama hadn't acted like he personally delivered the "kill shot", and is now milking this to boost his falling approval ratings, then people wouldn't be as quick to discredit him.

    The point was that the website was hardly a "random blogger", it was a website with a very particular and point of view to push.

    It is precisely the kind of website that I expected to get this turdball rolling.

    After a while the other dung beetles will add to it and keep pushing, until it becomes an established "fact" for the GOP coolaid drinkers before the election.

    I don't think this website is some heavy mover with high visibility in the conservative movement. It isn't to my knowledge.

    What it is, is exactly the kind of spin incubator that provides the genesis of right-wing spin of events that gets picked up later on. The activating neuron in the collective brain that starts the cascade of a collective thought, so to speak.

    It works much the same on the left with other websites.

    Well, you've put it under the microscope...should be interesting to see what develops.
