Drudge is back to doing his histrionics
Edited on Thu Feb-12-04 10:45 AM by ringmastery
Headline:

**World Exclusive Developing**

CAMPAIGN DRAMA ROCKS DEMOCRATS

with his flashing drama siren, but of course, nothing yet indicating whatever this *world exclusive* may be.

2. Drudge is just a republican tool ...
... and his histronics are getting old. Maybe one day the media will catch on. Every day in the Gore campaign that stupid light would be on ... and then there would be some lame story. The media would pick it up of course. But it has to be pretty embarrasing to keep jumping when Drudge says fetch. You would think the media would have more pride than that .....

18. I'll never forget the "Clinton trashed the WH" circle jerk
The end result was:

Drudge Report quotes CNN-type news source, whereas . . .

CNN-type news source quotes Washington Times article as source, whereas . . .

Washington Times article quotes Drudge Report as source.

3. "World Exclusive"
:eyes:

These guys (Rush and the "EIB", Sean and his grandiose theme music, etc etc) are all at the emotional age of 13. "I'm the bestest in the WORLD!"

Gee, Matt, why not "Oort Cloud Exclusive" or "Galactic Exclusive"?

Idiots.

4. funny. I don't feel "rocked"
Does anyone here feel rocked? I don't. I guess I didn't get that Democratic memo. Damn. Out of the loop again...thank goodness we have Drudge to tell us these things or else I would never know there was huge drama right now!

:eyes:

Speaking of drudge...does anyone else get the sense that he was badly abused as a child? He posts many obscure, horrible stories about child abuse...especially abuse from mothers on his site. It makes me wonder sometimes if it's because something happened to him. I've been wondering about this for the past few years...I hope it's not anything, just a morbid facination of sorts.

8. he comes across as unstable to me
Bill O'Reilly does too. Something isn't quite right with him...ever attempt to sit through drudge's radio show??? Random ranting and yelling...he makes Hannity seem normal.

7. DRUDGE: This just in...
"I'm a tool of the Right Wing and they pay my salary!"

Those banner ads aren't raising enough dough to keep one man in his South Beach style.

12. I bet it is the Osama Ad
And the fundraising Toricelli has been doing for Kerry. After all, Toricelli gave $50,000 to the group that ran the Osama ad.

Gephardt's Union backers also gave a lot to the group.

20. My Drudge-loving, RW co-worker is all excited
He said, "This is what happened when he broker the Monica story."

Anyone else notice that the title isn't exactly scary? The word "drama" is hardly the same as scandal.

24. 'Kerry will implode over an intern issue'
In an off-the-record conversation with a dozen reporters earlier this week, General Wesley Clark plainly stated: 'Kerry will implode over an intern issue'...

26. more info here
In an off-the-record conversation with a dozen reporters earlier this week, General Wesley Clark plainly stated: 'Kerry will implode over an intern issue'...

Kerry commotion is why Howard Dean has turned increasingly aggressive against Kerry in recent days, and is the key reason why Dean reversed his decision not to drop out of the race after Wisconsin, top campaign sources tell the DRUDGE REPORT....

A serious investigation of the woman and the nature of her relationship with Sen. John Kerry has been underway at TIME magazine, ABC NEWS, the WASHINGTON POST and the ASSOCIATED PRESS, where the woman in question once worked...
