All I know is

[Roon]

If I showed up posting wild stories from a blog, my threads would either be locked or I would be 86ed out of here.

[Olney Blue]

1. Gotta link for that?

:)

[Roon]

2. Ohhhh!

You're bad.

[MelissaB]

3. Sounds like a lounge post...

[WindRavenX]

4. oh fuck

here we go again...x(

[Roon]

5. The double standard is glaring eom

[WindRavenX]

7. look, I'm not even going to get involved in this personal issues thing

Because that's what it is, and it's really annoying.

[Roon]

9. Were you embarrassed?

Because I certainly was and I don't take that lightly.

[WindRavenX]

12. why do this publically?

When I have an issue with an individual, I talk to that person instead of making it public.

Just sayin'.

[Roon]

15. It's a message board eom

[WindRavenX]

17. no kidding!

Really? Damn, I didn't know that! :eyes:

If your grievances are genuine, then I would think it would be best to address the individual on and one on one basis.

I'm out of this. Tired of personal flamewars that are really about attention.

[Roon]

19. If you can't stand the heat

get out of the kitchen

[WindRavenX]

20. What the hell does that even mean in the context of this situation?

This is just silly.

[Roon]

22. Will Pitt made a lot of us fools

but I won't fall for it again.

[titoresque]

31. Sorry but

in this case what makes a fool is the person(s) who knows and see's that the MSM has failed this country over and over again and yet that same person refuses to believe that those same people can and will keep a HUGE story hidden from the public if they are instructed to do so.

We have witnessed this in a sense, just this week, with the stories of Military servicemen murdering innocent civilians. You believe that the MSM didn't know about this sooner? They sure kept it quiet for a long time!

[Roon]

32. Then why did Pitt post it?!?!

Huh!?!?!

[titoresque]

34. Pitt is not the MSM

Pitt has more integrity than the MSM, and clearly cares more about you,me, and our childrens granchildren than the traitors who call themselves "real journalists" they are bought and paid for....whores!
The MSM could have really helped to save this country by reporting the truth, when it happens. But they don't, they report semi-truth when it's good for politics, and when it's time to herd us all through the next gate. The people who still believe in TO and everyone involved in that story are the ones most wide awake.

[Roon]

36. Pitt has more integrity

Haven't you been paying attention?!?! :rofl:

[titoresque]

40. I have been paying very close attention

and i feel bad for you. You are acting as though this is all just a game. Just the internet.
I feel bad for you, and you should know that we are different here....when real horrible shit hits the fan you will be able to count on people here...in the physical world.

[Roon]

41. Just as long as you remember this

Pitt fooled you too!

[Jigarotta]

16. It has become personal, yes.

some have taken truthout's Rove story to friends, co-workers, family.
Now they're being laughed at like they're idiots.

yah, it has become personal.

[WindRavenX]

18. you know...that's why until the story was out, I kept my mouth shut

I wish in all my heart of hearts it was true, but I kept my mouth shut. Jumping the gun sucks, I know, but I simply do not understand the level of scorn.

[Roon]

21. Yes jig!!

I was totally embarrassed by will pitt's "scoop"...but never again, i'll know better next time

[AlCzervik]

23. if you can't stand the heat-----

no one forced you to share the story with your friends and freepers.

[Roon]

24. LMAO!

Pitt broke this as a HUGE SCOOP!!!

[AlCzervik]

25. so what, i read it here too and didn't email everyone with it

because i waited for confirmation from Fitzgerald's office. I understand the frustration and disappointment with rove still free but you chose to share it with people, that was your choice.

[Jigarotta]

26. so you knew TruthOut was not to be trusted Before the Rove thing?

I didn't......

[AlCzervik]

27. i didn't say that at all, trust but verify and if that means waiting for

another source then so be it.

[Roon]

29. I never heard of truthout

until Pitt came in here spouting his craziness

[Roon]

28. I am not worried about the people I shared it with

because I told everyone.....the scuttlebutt on the internet is....What is disgusting is all the people on DU who fell for it.

[AlCzervik]

30. i think a lot of du'ers waited and tried to remain optimistic

i'm sure many did believe it was going to happen right away but i think the same amount rose it out and hoped for the best. I don't think Rove is out of the woods by a long shot.

[Roon]

33. Rove will never be charged

you heard it here first

[MichiganVote]

38. Oh grow up and get over it. So what? In this day and age all kinds of

of things are being put out. All these posts on the matter of TruthOut hardly take away from the issue. Why bring this crap up again...anybody with any sense has moved on.

[Rude Horner]

6. I just got back from a week long vacation

Wild stories? Locked threads? What did I miss?

[Roon]

8. I can't tell you

because that would be calling out a fellow DUer and that is against the rules.

[Wonk]

11. Anybody who has been paying attention knows you're already

doing that, and that's the only point of the thread.

[Roon]

14. You bet!

and this thread will probably be locked because of it

[yewberry]

35. Should be.

I know I can't be the only person who alerted.

[Roon]

37. I am not the only one who was fooled by Pitt's story

deal with it

[BeHereNow]

39. As the song goes...

"I can dream, can't I?"

"and this thread will probably be locked"

In the meantime, where IS that button that makes my DU
page so nice to look at?
Ah!
There it is!
BHN

[Roon]

42. You were fooled too!

I am finding that most people who are pissed at my OP were fooled. Oh well....

[annabanana]

10. usual bs... pouting, snarkiness,

the usual

[titoresque]

13. All I know is........

I don't currently have anyone on my ignore list but i think a good place to start would be in the thread you are referring to.
All you "hammerheads" are really starting to wear me thin.
Please put me on ignore if you don't like it, I welcome that now.....no time to mince words with people who only want to infight and bicker.
We should be appreciating eachothers small differences rather than picking eachother apart. There will be a time in the not-so-distant-future where we will HAVE to rely on eachother.....this administration is fast approaching checkmate.....get a damn grip and stop the petty bullshit. Your life may depend on it!

[The empressof all]

43. Locking
