Worst Blog Post of the Year

Treason in Defense of Slavery Yankee on the cop killing in Tacoma makes the "connection" that because left-leaning Evergreen State University is 30 miles away, it's probably some leftist tied to the school.

Meanwhile, in reality the killer turns out to be someone Mike Huckabee pardoned while governor.

In comments that TIDOS Yankee quickly deleted, I suggested a more plausible connection--that there are killer whales nearby in the Puget Sound and that they have declared war on local police. I also recommended that he go back to his more respectable posts--such as asking readers for donations after a wind storm broke his grill just after complaining about federal assistance to Katrina victims.

He Breeds

Treason in Defense of Slavery Yankee's wife had a daughter. The poor thing. Will they put her in Confederate flag diapers? Home school her? Will her history textbooks for that home schooling come from 1939? Will she learn to fear the uncontrolled sexuality of black men? Will she be trained to put Bob's grill back together?

If there was a ever an argument for state custody of a child, this is it.

Hypocrite of the Year

At least once a year, Treason in Defense of Slavery Yankee publishes one blog post that is beyond the pale jaw-dropping stupid. Most of his posts are generally stupid. But no one can go the extra mile in fucktardness like TIDOS Yankee. A couple of years ago, there was his famous Baby Jesus butt plug post. This actually won him Crooks and Liars' award for worst blog post of 2005. Then, after talking about how he didn't think we should waste money rebuilding New Orleans, he begged for money on his site when his backyard grill was damaged in a windstorm.

Now, he complains about the Obama campaign office that had the Cuban flag with Che on it. Che is a "terrorist" after all and people should hate terrorists.

This from a man whose fucking logo incorporates the Confederate flag.

Wow.

Wow, wow, wow.

He may realize what a big mistake that was because he's been awfully silent amongst the vast numbers of comments ridiculing him. But I doubt it. He's probably eating Cheetos and figuring out how to put his new grill together.

TIDOS Yankee on Climate Change

Treason in Defense of Slavery Yankee has a classic post denying climate change.

His evidence that climate change is not happening? The founder of the Weather Channel says so!
There is a fundamental difference between progressives and right-wing lunatics. Progressives understand what an expert is. And then they defer to said expert. So if I want to know about climate change, I am going to read, oh I don't know, perhaps an actual climatologist. Or I am going to look at the data that shows that not a single paper denying climate change has been published in a peer-reviewed journal.

And if I'm a right-winger, I am just going to find some guy who believes what I do, especially if it is some kind of corporate titan, professional athlete, or Republican functionary, and then publicize it as equal to actual experts.

Read the comments too. They're not long and worth it. One guys claims expertise on the issue because his Dad was a meteorologist. Wow. By that logic, I am going to believe everything Julian Lennon has to say about music, everything Joe Buck has to say about baseball, and everything George W. Bush has to say about politics.
