“One doesn’t anticipate that one’s private conversation will be surreptitiously taped by some right-wing nutcase,” said Fowler. “But that’s the nature of what we’re dealing with.”

Before Fowler potificates on the corruption of right-wing nuts, he should consider Chris Dodds insistence in pushing his views on Katrina, Gustov and the RNC on CNN’s Late Edition.

Once this is over, these idiots need to be called out on their exploitation of human suffering and natural disasters. It’s too bad that it’s likely too late to tie them to beaches in front of the approaching storm.

“If this offended anybody”? Of course it offended people! It’s human nature for a person to show scorn at someonek who cackles at the thought of their home being leveled.

Now he’s trying to use that played-out, typical, caught-red-handed Democrat excuse. “It was a joke.” Oh, please. You know, for a joke, it wasn’t very funny.

Would that mean it was “Left Wing Nut Jobs” That scanned Newts cell phone, recorded it, and gave it to the DNC way back when? When a Rep is taped it’s news, when it’s a Dem it’s a “satirical statement made in jest”. No big deal.

…these Clintonian apologies don’t wash: “I’m sorry if you were offended”, my a$$.

As a resident of South Louisiana eighty to ninety percent of my friends and coworkers are evacuated. Our business has an office in Houma, LA, so our two Houma-based employees’ homes will be directly impacted by the surge and the brunt of the storm as it moves ashore.

Lafayette, where I live, should survive OK as it is (mostly) well above sea level and the storm will have to traverse 80-100 miles of marsh to reach it. Things will probably be OK in Lafayette.

However, my 83 year old parents’ plans to evacuate yesterday by commercial air flight were quashed by last-minute health concerns. Stuff happens with the best-laid evacuation plans.

I’m 1,000 miles away. Please keep us all in your prayers.

So, having said that, I’m a right wing nut-case.

Fowler’s apology makes things 100% better.

I guess that we right-wing nutcases don’t get it. Only Democrats are smart enough to appreciate satire at its finest. Moreover, only Democrats are able to employ satire so well that to lesser comedic tastes, it comes off as a crass and insensitive remark.

(If no one picked up on the sarcasm above, I blame the inability of text to convey it).

The stupidest thing is that New Orleans is a city that votes for the Democrats. If anything his remarks were insensitive and stupid.

Having heard what liberals say and “joke” about on a public commercial flight makes me even more curious what was going on at the Brown Hotel in Denver that they didn’t want the public to see that made them have an ABC “mainstream media” producer arrested. Hmmm?

You know Fowler or his staff has probably been doing what they can to find out who was sitting behind them on the plane to “expose” this despicable “right-wing nutcase”. If they do, stand proudly and let us know!

…and if I knew it was being recorded, I wouldn’t have said it.

Mark Furman probably said the same thing.

that the left-wing nutjob who got caught reveling in the fact that the hurricane would hit during the GOP convention has the temerity to denigrate absentee for catching him in the act.

Your first post in this blog was a rabid, slobber spewing rant which did nothing at all to indicate that you might be an intelligent, educated individual with an opinion that might interest us.

If you want us to listen, try making yourself sound like an adult instead of a child screaming about the cookie jar being empty.

I don’t get #3. Anyone who is very low income and does not have savings or an expensive car can get food stamps within 30 days of applying. There are food banks and charities that will give someone food or gift card if they are waiting on their application. Almost all of these places are accessible by public transportation too. Caseworkers can give an applicant a referral to get food from a charity more frequently that what is typically allowed while they are waiting for their application to be processed. Some of these places even have bus passes.
Even if someone can’t make it in the office to apply for food stamps they can mail in an application and do a phone interview.
There isn’t a church in the US that does not have a food panty.

Just caught the end of the on air host in the studio, say to the NOLA reporter, after the cameras showed a FoxNews Billboard being blown down…”I guess that show that God doesn’t like Fox either.”

I hope the clip of that is part of a YouTube “Gustav Dem Montage,” showing the DNC dude on the plane, Michael Moore and this idiot. If anyone can get a clip of this I occured at 0928 Eastern, on the PMS of NBC.

Absentee, you have finally been unmasked by someone the public can really trust as a “right wing nutcase.” I, of course have had my suspicions all along that all of the thoughtful prose, all the creative and entertaining writing, and all of your devotion to Redstate, your family, your party, and to the public’s right to know was a cover story for the fact that you’re really a nutcase.

I, of course, am a nutcase too, and I have been unmasked by “right-thinking people” (to paraphrase Joel Achenbach of the Washington Post as a bonafide, certified crazy man.

If you were green and a female, I’d call you Marta, for I am LORD Garth!

Particularly when you violate the cardinal rule of upper-echelon D’s: never display in public what you really think. It’s crucial that the Firewall of Truth between the public and private statements of Democrat leaders be maintained! Because it allows them to maintain the essential duality of the Democratic Party in its all-consuming situational ethics propaganda initiatives!

Regardless, I can say to you, my brother: Nutcases of the World, Unite!

Nice try but this is a nonissue. I’m sure Fox “News” will attempt to hammer this into the ground but a private conversation secretly taped? Pretty damn rude if you ask me. Who hasn’t made on off-color joke about a natural disaster in private? This fake outrage displayed by this website is laughable.
