The newspaper Hernando Today did a story on the Right Wing Howler being shut down by CAIR and includes a few quote from me about the editorial in question and CAIR. Seems to be a pretty balanced article and kudos to the reporter for doing some actual research on the subject (compare it to the article in the Hernando Times).
Also, Vilmar has a statement up where his site used to be announcing his retirement from blogging (planned before this incident) and asking people not to be to harsh on his service provider.
I’m not sure if there is some big lesson to learn from this. This site is hosted by Hosting Matters who hosts some of the most controversial blogs such as Little Green Footballs, so I’m not worried about something similar happening with this site. I guess my one worry would be someone selectively quoting IMAO in a news article without context, as that would make it pretty easy to make us look worse than Hitler. And we’re not worse than Hitler. We’re much nicer, really. Plus, we hate the German people and all their descendants.
Ey. I’m at least 9/16ths German.
UM. I’M THEIR DESCENDENT.
WII NEED TO TALK.
Uh oh, SarahK sounds a bit… perturbed. Run, Frank, run!
“We hate the German people and all their descendants”
I knew it! I had you penned as a Frankophile from the beginning. You slippery little frog lover, you.
The Land Walrus is a proud Swabian/Swiss, so if you don’t like it, du kannst mich mal am Arsch lecken!
Also, Hitler was an AUSTRIAN, like Sigmund Freud, and Dr. Ruth Westheimer. What a bunch of Wieners.
A note to those that are bad at Satire. Mr. Tavares made the mistake of sounding serious, which on politically charged subjects is enough to go unload on him. So for those of you who don’t sound patently ridiculous with every breath you take perhaps it would be best of include the word {wink} in brackets after each sentence, so that people know your not really going to harm anyone or their cats. {wink}
That’s it Frank. I am 1/2 German Mennonite. It is go time, pacifist style.
My familys original name was “Jaeger”
I heard he decided to quit blogging in order to kill children indiscriminately without regard to race, religion or ethnic or national origen.
Ah Sarah is going to be single again after her and Frank’s umm…discussion.
Frank,
I can always count on you for a laugh. Just when the muzzle of the shotgun is promising me the sweet release of death, you’ll make me laugh and I’ll realize life is worth living!
Just keep being funny.
No pressure or anything.
🙂
In related news, the Council on Irish British Alliances and Relations (CIBAR) has announced that they are trying to have Jonathan Swift imprisoned (posthumously) for his scandalous piece A Modest Proposal. This hit piece goes even farther than Frank, not only suggesting that we kill Irish children, but that we eat them as well!
Mmmmm… gaelicy!
Honestly Frank, we are much nicer than the french descendants. I can tell by how much nicer my Dad is than my Mom, he would always say “ask you’re Mom” and she would always say no!!
