My turn?

Okay:

Pathetic obsession test. Score one point for each affirmative answer:

Have you ever:

-- Noticed that your object of obsession was missing and then commented on how overjoyed you were with their return?

-- Alleged wrongdoing about a person who changed his mind on an issue, even though you yourself have changed your own mind in your own life many times (such as here and here)?

-- Taken posts from a person out of context and failed to provide links to them so that others could tell the context (such as here, and here and here)?

-- Put up the exact same posts about a person dozens or hundreds of times over a period of several years, (Yes, you read right: SEVERAL YEARS) even though it is old and trite and out-of-context (such as here, and here and here)?

-- Coming back early from your time off just to post about that person?

BOUNS QUESTION:

-- Have you ever created a Pathetic obsession test about the person of your obsession (leaving out the links and context, of course)?

Score:

1: slightly obsessed
2: moderately obsessed
3: severely obsessed
4: mordibly and pathologically obsessed
5: your name is goatman

Oops:

The Mr. Fickle Truthiness Guide (tm)

This handy guide is made available to the denizens of the Drudge Retort for use when reading posts by Mr. Fickle (my bff).

1. Is it the truth?

Sorry, can't help you with this one. You're on your own. Caveat emptor.
2. Is he being "fickle"?
Look for the telltale signs, such as publically, and very noisely announcing "Unlike last time when I said I was simply taking a break, I am leaving for good", but then don't really leave, of course. Then, justify it by disingenuously stating "Besides, I did leave... For two weeks." If you see that then you know that Mr. Fickle is being, well, "fickle." But whatever you do don't call him a hypocrite. He doesn't know what that word means.
3. Is it a blatant lie?
Some claim the giveaway is whenever he clicks on the Publish Comment button. But you should look for easily disproven statements, such as claiming he missed a vote because of something beyond his control when, in fact, he had earlier, and very publically, announced that he was planning on missing it in the first place. One note here: When confronted with the obvious, Mr. Fickle (and his supporters) will go into Karl Rove mode: They take his obvious dishonesty, ignore it, and then claim that it is you who's really dishonest (or a stalker, or whatever). Basically, they attack the messenger when they know that defending the message is impossible.
This public service was made available to you by the bald, fat and pasty white Drudge Archivist and Historian.

Anatomy of a Liar

I always find it interesting when the Drudge's own advocate for "truth" (as he sees it) is caught in his own lies. Oh, he denies it, of course, claiming he is "fickle." Okay, let's look at this latest example from Mr. Fickle.

On the Monday, 01/05 Franken Declares Victory thread, in a solemn and oh-so-important post, Mr. Fickle declares:

There is a very important lesson to be learned: EVERY VOTE COUNTS! Please, don't anyone ever miss an election. It could be your vote that puts your candidate into office. Don't sit at home and tell yourself that your vote doesn't count.

Now, when it was pointed out that Mr. Fickle volunteered that he didn't vote in the March 4, 2008 primary election in Texas ("I'm offshore. Didn't vote"), the spinning began:
I thought I was going to be onshore during election day. But I had to work over a week for someone. I did not know that until my hitch started. Therefore, not being a Nostradamus, I did not vote absentee.

And ...
I'm an awful american for missing a vote due to something beyond my control.

#225 | Posted by goatman at 2009-01-05 09:15 PM

I like that "excuse," "something beyond my control".

Oops:

Yep. I admitted it several times in this forum that I planned to give these primaries a miss since I had no interest in any of the candidates.

Planning on missing a vote is "missing a vote due to something beyond my control"? Cute.

And, finally, from the "If you always tell the truth you never have to remember what you said" category, there's this:

BTW, I mentioned this back then, but I notice that you disingenuously did not post that link off your harddrive archives.

#222 | Posted by goatman at 2009-01-05 09:07 PM

Oops.

Actually, "back then" Mr. Fickle "planned to give these primaries a miss." Didn't see anything on that thread about missing the vote due to "something beyond my control."

Get a life -- I mean one that includes honesty, please?
Indeed.

Eberly caught some lies in what Modrat has been saying and the above link.

From the nooner:

If that's Moder8 then he has been lying. The link says he has been on his own since 1998. Moder8 has said he curretly works as a PD.

Besides...he said he was being considered...not appointed....yet.
