In case you missed this entertainment, here's a link to the latest pots-and-pans protest Web site.
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x6075559

which is amusing on its own, will take you to:

http://www.clintonsupporterscounttoo.org/index.html

And oh, is it a beauty! You haven't seen a Web site this slick, this elegantly designed, since, well, 1995. On your Mosaic browser.

Remember how there was once a book called Web Pages That Suck? Well, this one sucks.

Of course, let's not be too quick to condemn. For all we know, the deliberate suckiness of this site is actually a masterful astroturfing attempt by the Hillary supporters. You know, it can't look too good, lest it look--horrors!--professional. Like it was created by some smooth minion of the Republican Party or a nerd from Operation Chaos or something. So, well hey, they DELIBERATELY tried their best to make it look as if somebody's little brother in sixth grade designed it. In 1995. For a Mosaic browser.

Either that, or Hillary really is well and truly out of cash.

Or her supporters really are this clueless.

You make the call.

1. They should have left the original gray background
from the old days too. BTW, dear website creator: for the record, John Paul Jones said, "I have not yet begun to fight." Does the Google exist on your planet?

Also, in the "Dead Giveaway" category, on the About CSCT page we have this statement: "It is our desire to have Hillary nominated as the Democrat nominee for president or if this fails, then we will put all our support behind John McCain."

Call me a cynic, but I think anyone who would call her the "Democrat nominee" is already planning to vote for John McCain.

2. There is no way in hell that a bunch of rabid feminists...
use the phrase "common man (woman)."

This is a repuke site.

5. The broken English is interesting, too.
"To achieve this goal, we have 3-stage approach that we must do" and "We need member to make this work."

Did anyone go to the Comments page? It plays "This Land Is Your Land." Wonder if anyone has told the Guthrie estate about that.

Take a look at this scary comment posted there a few days ago:

User Name cahill 5/22/08 4:48 pm
Comments I agree with the website one hundred percent. That being said, please consider the following:
With only one or two exceptions, up until Bill Clinton was elected, the Presidency was held by someone under the wing and in the hip pocket of that secretive Eastern seaboard Ivy League corridor. Then came a rouge from Arkansas and the powermongers could not stand it. They set out to destroy and discredit him, by controlling the media. Now Hillary comes along!! I am convinced Ted Kennedy pushed Obama into the race for two reasons--first to cripple Hillary, and, for the selected few (Kennedy among them), to keep those obscene war profits rolling in from those no-bid contracts from war with Iraq, Iran, Afganistan, Venezuela, ad infinitum, with an inhuman disregard for the lives of our young people. To defect to war-mongering McCain will be playing into their hands. We need to figure out some way -- independent of the mainstream media--to get the word out far and wide that we all are being played for fools. We need to find some united, powerful way to fool them.


Yep. This tinfoil-hatter posted this AFTER Ted's diagnosis was made public.

Now read THIS insanity. These people actually religiously believe the Republicans are TRYING to defeat Hillary and make Obama the nominee, so that they can shoot him down with a Rezko "October Surprise" indictment:

http://www.thecityedition.com/Pages/Archive/Winter08/2008Election.html

This is sheer madness, as you'd think anyone would realize by now. I would not be surprised if it is Republican counter-counterintelligence. So they want Obama over Hillary, do they? So they think Obama is easier to beat, do they? If so...then WHY HAVE THEY BEEN PLAYING VIDEO OF JEREMIAH WRIGHT NONSTOP ON FOX NEWS? Why is Richard Mellon Scaife endorsing Hillary? Why was Sean Hannity calling for Obama to drop out a month ago? Why did Rush Limbaugh tell his dittoheads to muck up the primaries by voting for HILLARY? Was that all part of their evil plan to get us to think they wanted Hillary in the GE, so we would turn around and vote for Obama, and then they could dispatch him in one mighty wave of the Rezko sword? And, if so, why the hell is Rove advising Hillary that she can still beat the math?

This is absurd. I need to get away from it for a bit.

6. Same reason why
every time the FLDS start getting positive press, Flora Jessup makes up more bullshit about them on Nancy Grace. Her latest was a real doozy (as opposed to DUzy). And she wonders why the Utah & Arizona authorities won't listen to her anymore.
