NewsBusters Jumps Into The News Hounds/Johnny Dollar FeudReported by Ellen - February 16, 2010 - Comments (21)
Ellen and her dog washers(sarcasm) are going to great lengths to excuse their lies. As usual, the best they can do is trot their chief idiot(sarcasm), littlejohnt who posts actual vile quotes from Ellen. Then Ellen, the liar in chief(sarcasm), say that quote doesn't count because it was too long ago.
Alex, the screecher(sarcasm), comes along and challenges Johnny to release IP addresses. Only the low life Hideious Hens(sarcasm) release IP addresses.
Pegleg Peggy puts her bottle down(sarcasm) to enlighten everyone as to how utterly ignorant she is.
All of this screaming fake outrage eminating from the Dog Pound(sarcasm) can only mean that they are unable to defend their position. They keep tryin but it just isn't working.
I had to place "sarcasm" in there because the Mutts wouldn't understand and they would come out to attack me for "vile" comments.
They themselves like to think of their own childish behavior as "sarcasm".
Why do they love Johnny Dollar so much?

That's a pretty good summary of what is happening. The dog pounders are so agitated that they have no idea that they are just running around foaming at the mouth and screeching deliriously like crazy people; not making any sense. It's pretty funny to watch.

Re: Nobody likes Chris?
I used to be quite a fan of Chris Matthews, but he's gotten so prone to calling every Obama critic a racist, that I can't stand him.
Re: Subtitles are racist!
Fox routinely puts the comments it wishes to emphasize into subtitles.
I believe I saw them doing that yesterday during footage of Sen. Bayh making his statement.

These people have no boundaries. They only know hate. They were coddled as children and now that they are in the real world and it's "tough," it has to be someone's fault. No matter how much they lie, because their "Mommy" will always love them.

Not only that but Olberdouche and Madcow still link Beck and O'Reilly to murderers, as in they were the cause of the murders by people they never met.

Re: "Sarah vs. Seth": I have a feeling that MacFarlane will be on "Countdown" tonight. To answer Z's question, when I heard the line, I didn't like it, but I kept watching. I come to expect some attack at some point on conservatives, Republicans, and FNC on either of Seth's shows: "Family Guy," "American Dad," or "The Cleveland Show." And in Sunday's episode of "The Cleveland Show," one of the characters, Holt, was shown to have a McCain/Palin bumper sticker on his car. But despite all this, I continue to watch, taking the shows one episode, scene, and line at a time.

MacFarlane has been falling for quite some time now. Family Guy was a very funny show... but the downside was MacFarlane's ego grew with it's popularity. Everything since then, has been worse and worse. Family Guy has gone way down, "American Dad" is bad, and the "Cleveland Show" is awful. And let's not forget that he had that special variety show... once... which I don't think even his friends watched. He's in free fall... but I'm not sure he knows it yet.

Poor Ellen has been caught with her pants down (figurantively) and she has no defense. She applied an extremely vulgar term to Dollar and encouraged everyone to be as rude as they can possibly be when visiting Dollar's forum. Let's look at NH defenses. First they argue that Pr!ck is not really a bad term; that it does not mean what everyone knows it to mean. I cite the follwong link to demonstrate that in the real world (not in the slimey Bizarro world) otherwise http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20100102211815AApFfKq. The fact that members of NH think that the word is OK just demonstrates the vulgar language they allow at NH and what a slimey putrid swamp it is. In the real world this is not an acceptable word and the defense fails.
Then Ellen says that what she says is no longer operative because it happened a whole year and a half ago. That she has never retracted her statement in that period of time makes it even more damning. The fact that still today she will not apologize and admit that she made a mistake makes it more damning still.
I guess Her Vileness is to dense to get that she has just nuked her own accusations that Hannity was too chummy with a Nazi madman. She will not provide us with any transcripts of their chummy relationship; Hannity has renounced Turner; and anything that might have happened occurred much further in the past than did Vile Ellen's offense. Not that she would care, but she has now opened herself to charges of hypocrisy should she ever accuse anybody of doing anything wrong before one and a half years ago. On so many levels, this time defense fails and fails miserably.
Then they say that the words were addressed to littlejohnny troll after he had been banned. However, the comment was posted on a public forum, where all the NH groupies could see it, and could be influenced by it. We can also expect that this comment is just the tip of the iceberg. Only Gawd knows what other even more explicit and vulgar directions to misbehave were delivered privately (by email for example). Again her miserable defense fails.
The she-dogs of the hideous pound have been owned intellectually; and they know it. That's why they they can't even pretend to think straight. That's why they ramble; delirously spouting nonsense, lying, and hurling every insult they can think of. They are desperate to hide the fact that they have been thorougly owned. That's why they are so funny!

littlejohnny troll is really offended by the term she-dog while he thinks that the word that Vile Ellen used is OK. He is like the proverbial man who strained at a gnat and swallowed a camel Peggy-the Town drunk has said that when she spoke of knee pads for myself and Cecilia in our relation to Dollar than she did not have anything sexual in mind. That only a filthy mind would consider that. I can be just a coy as drunk Peggy.
When I describe the coven at NH as being she-dogs I only am saying what they say about themselves. They refer to themselves as (news) Hounds or dogs, and they also refer to themselves as shes because they are women. Both she and dog and even the combination of the two words are perfectly proper words that can be used in polite society. The fact that littlejohnny troll wants to make more out of those words just shows (gasp) what a filthy mind he has. It just proves that he himself is a piece of filth who has found a home in the sewer that is Newshounds.

Heeerrrrrrrrreeeeeew littlejohnny Troll to provide us with comic relief
He notes that in one of my previous posts that I said what I am providing are ALMOST quotes. He even puts ALMOST in capital letters so that only the severely mentally handicaped could read it and miss it. Then he says the following (I am paraphrasing but I am fairly close): DUHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH [I kid you not. He actually says what idiots say, as if we didn't already know he is severely mentally deficient] DUHHHHHHHHHH Where are the quotes? DUHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I don't see any quotes. DUHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Does Danny know there aren't any quotes?
Actually I do. If I had thought I had put in quotes I would have written ACTUAL quotes; not ALMOST quotes. As Bugs Bunny would say (about littlejohnny Troll) "What a maroon!"
HAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA littlejonny t is just too funny.

Well, I'm sorry to hear that Peggy made such a statement.
She had apologized at one point for ignoring the trash talk and apologized for what role she played in too (At one point she had likened a St. Patrick's avatar of mine to a part of Johnny's anatomy.)
Evidently, now all that's been revised or perhaps deleted...etc...
Revisionism seems to be genetic with the News Hounds.

It gets more than silly, this internet stuff. I think it's a given that many of these folks (not ALL...) are likely to be the sort of people who are as polite as they can be in real life. They work hard and are responsible adults.
