For April Fool's Day, I collected a bunch of topics that
have followed in the trend that has become a cottage
industry on these boards: Making fun of Whomod's
fanatical anti-Bush/anti-Republican obsession.
Some basic characteristics of Whomod's posts are:
- Ranting anti-Bush rhetoric endlessly, the same
baseless charges over and over,
.
- making up insulting pet names for Bush and his staff
(such as "Asscroft" for Ashcroft),
.
- posting inflammatory rhetoric and images that are
pretty much baseless, and vastly exaggerated at best.
.
- Posting long articles as "evidence" from mainstream
sources, that only from the most partisan perspective
actually supports his allegations, and often makes
conjecture to draw its anti-Bush conspiracy conclusion.
.
- More often, posting articles from partisan websites,
that are as partisan and vitriolically insulting of Bush
as Whomod himself is.
.
- Most often, posting images that morph U.S. soldiers and
Bush officials into swastika-wearing Nazi soldiers, Cheney
into Darth Vader, Bush and Cheney into gay lovers,
irrationally accusing Bush of wanting to drop atomic bombs
on people, and similar bitter, and again baseless,
accusations.
.
- ignoring the facts when presented to him, and just
attacking Bush from another perspective, or just ranting
the same charges as if they haven't just been disproven.
.
- Ignoring and quickly dismissing any similar opinion or
actions by Clinton or other Democrats in Washington.
.
- accusing anyone who disagrees with him of "blindly
supporting Bush", despite abundant posts to prove
otherwise.
Here's a list of topics ripping on the "Whomod technique",
a list which I'm sure is far from complete:

comedy relief for the rest of us.

I'm hardly a "[ quote ]LIBERAL[ unquote ]" in the classic sense. I do recall mentioning in that thread that in such a conservatively charged atmosphere as this board, i'm sure a centrist like me can't help but to be labeled a liberal.
My views were roughly about 50/30/20 liberal/moderate/conservative. Some of you it seems just can't abide any opinion that differs from oh say, an average dose of Sean Hannity's show and instantly start flying what you pereceive to be pejorative labels in some misguided attempt to discredit me with said label.
But whatever, I seem to have developed my own cult of personality here.

Whomod keeps making recurring allegations that whoever
supports Bush does so "blindly", ignoring the
"overwhelming"  evidence against Bush. Which is
only "overwhelming" from Whomod's skewed estimation, and
that of similar Bush-hating liberals, who eagerly bask in
every new unproven allegation.
Whomod alleges that "all criticism of the President" is
labelled as "treason" by conservatives. It is not ALL,
but only the most baseless, partisan and vicious
allegations that I and many others have voiced a problem
with.
Despite my answering this about a thousand times, and
recently quoting where others here have answered and
thoroughly disproven that stupid and dismissive notion of
Whomod's regarding conservative opinion, again and again
Whomod repeats this allegation, over and over, despite that
it has been disproven, OVER AND OVER.
Here is my rebuttal to Whomod's head-in-ass generalization
of conservative opinion, AGAIN. Maybe someday it
will sink in, and Whomod will move on to more credible
fabrications.
The below is originally posted on page 30 of the
"It's not about Oil or Iraq..." topic. And I've
posted it several other times, when Whomod makes the same
discredited allegations about conservative opinion:
_____________________________________________________
I see that Whomod is again alleging that anyone who
disagrees with him is "blindly supporting Bush".
To which I again respond with this dose of reality, which I
fully expect Whomod to ignore, as he did previously:
from the Nearly 200 killed in Madrid explosions
topic, page 4:

It's amazing to me that Bush is never wrong, never
misinformed and anyone who disagrees with his
Administration is instantly and always wrong. Entire
nations are wrong, millions of voters are wrong or afraid
if they don't vote to Bush's satisfaction, countless
millions worldwide who protest the war are wrong.
Sceientists and beuaracrats who speak out on what they
know to be to be lies are wrong (ONLY when they contradict
or dispute an Administration assertion of course If they
happen to agree with Bush, then their expertise is
impeccable). Any reports contradicting Bush's conclusions
are wrong of course. After years of this logic, I think
people are starting to wise up.
.
Now that Congress has pending legislation (S 89 and HR 163)
to prepare for a military draft (after the election), we
might think twice about the consequences of continuing to
believe what President Bush tells us.
.
Incidentally,when the French resisted our call to invade
Iraq, French fries became "freedom fries," etc. So are we
to now get "freedom rice" and (my favorite) "the freedom
inquisition" ?
.
Do you really believe your own rhetoric, Whomod?
.
Since this post immediately follows mine, I assume you're
sweeping me into this "Neo-cons who blindly support
Bush and believe everything he says" category.
.
Which is certainly far from the truth. Whether it's me, or
Rob Kamphausen, or G-man or whoever, I think we've all
made clear that we don't believe everything G.W. Bush or
his administration says. They're politicians, just as
Clinton, Gore, Bush Sr., Reagan, Carter, Nixon and the
rest were before them.
.
I've not said or implied that G.W. Bush has never made a
mistake or is eligible for sainthood or anything. I think
most of us have made it clear we would have preferred
McCain as our Republican presidential candidate, if he'd
been offered to us instead of Bush.
.
But at the same time, I still largely support Bush,
especially on his foreign/military policy.
.
I again say, neither Gore nor Kerry nor Dean would have
had the courage to invade Afghanistan or Iraq, and
eliminate the gathering and obvious threats in those
nations. And we would have been "9/11-ed" again as a
result.
.
And I'm confident that Al Qaida, the pro-Saddam insurgents
in Iraq, and enemies of the United States worldwide would
jump for joy if Bush were voted out in November.
And that domestic "useful idiots" such as yourself
as well would jump for joy (and again, that term is one
used by anti-American Muslims in Al Qaida and other
islamic radical groups worldwide for Western leftists'
opposition to the U.S., Britain and other governments
fighting terror).
.
I've certainly not been shy about my criticism of Bush,
which I've posted on many threads here on the RKMB boards.
.
Here's one example I recently re-read:
.
Do liberals HATE the President", page 3 of topic:

First of all, look at Europe and the rest of the

I've already taken this page further off-topic than I

.

.
On topic, I think we've established a hatred for Bush among
his liberal/Democrat critics.
.
And as it relates to the topic, as well as many other RKMB
discussions here, I would be far more open to concede
Bush's flaws, if not for the white-hot hatred (and
resultant distortion of the facts) of the majority of
criticism I see of Bush.
.
Has Bush made mistakes? Absolutely. And I hope everyone
here can see that despite my sensibilities leaning toward
the Bush perspective, I've voiced considerable criticism
of his policies...
.
( a quick review:
- Bush should be more public with disclosure of
information, the perceived secretiveness breeds distrust
of Bush, whether or not he is guilty of anything;
- in hindsight, he should have had a larger occupation
force to invade Iraq, to prevent forseeable looting,
- Bush should be expanding U.S. military
recruitment/enlistment by 400,000 or more, to insure we
have the reserves to meet any situation in Iraq, Iran,
North Korea or elsewhere.
- And although I'm less convinced now there is a military
solution possible in Korea, I think Korea should have been
invaded first instead of Iraq. Iraq could have
waited a year or so, but Korea was clearly more immediate.
In the six months of buildup and invasion of Iraq, Korea
was known to be building nuclear weapons, and Bush allowed
it to happen. (Although negotiations in Korea, though
currently fruitless, now include China, Japan, Russia and
South Korea, and are no longer just bilateral talks
between the U.S. and North Korea. Which now puts more
pressure on North Korea, particularly from China, to
de-nuclearize.)
** I hasten to add, I give primary blame to the Clinton
administration for enabling Korea to build nukes. THAT
was the time to invade Korea, in 1994, instead of Clinton
giving huge concessions and requiring no verification,
that allowed Korea to go on secretly building nukes.
Although again, Bush had his window of opportunity that
he allowed to close as well.
- I'm not wild about the Bush tax cut, even though little
of it has been enacted yet. And I think that tax cut
should be repealed, to cover the additional homeland
security and war expenses.
- And although I posted a few months ago I wouldn't
re-elect Bush, at this point the Democrats' bitterly
partisan opposition makes me far more inclined to re-elect
Bush over the forseeable Democrat alterative in 2004. )
.
I consider that constructive criticism of the
President. As opposed to the vitriol over the last year
from many (but clearly not all) Democrats.
Senators McCain, Biden and Lieberman are examples of
constructive criticism.
Howard Dean and John Kerry are examples of pointlessly
divisive, Bush-can-do-no-right, scorched earth rhetoric,
that selfishly divides the country just so they can
exploit liberal anger and get more votes.
.
When Democrats "hate" the President, and produce venomous,
deliberately misrepresentative and highly partisan
articles and speeches accordingly, they don't convince
moderate Republicans. They drive them defensively behind
the president.
I'm a personal example of that.
.
So once again your ludicrous, venomous accusations have
absolutely no substance.

Bush chose evidence that had already been discredited, to

people as PROOF of our imminent doom.

Wrong again.
.
Bush presented--and made clear he was presenting--evidence
that we received from British intelligence which, at the
time, the British believed to be accurate. In fact,
Britain still stands by that intelligence.
.
So, other than your own emotional reaction, you don't have
one shred of actual evidence that Bush deliberately misled
anyone.
.
That's what bothers me about what Whomod is saying (and
many other liberals as well ), voicing a relentless stream
of unproven allegations against Bush, as if they
are facts.
.
I don't have a problem with voicing the possibility
of wrongdoing under any President, investigating, and
asking tough questions.
But I do have a problem with slander, relentlessly
saying these allegations as if they were proven, to the
point that the uninformed actually believe that
these allegations are proven.
That's deliberate and bitter misrepresentation.
.
No proof of "blood for oil".
No proof of "Bush fought the Iraq war for his father".
No proof of "Bush knew about 9-11 before it happened" (as
Dean alleges).
No proof that Bush and Cheney gave the contract to
Halliburton through cronyism.
No proof of a war profiteering motive by Bush's
administration, to allegedly get themselves rich.
No proof that Bush's White House leaked information about
ambassador Wilson.
And ultimately, no proof that Bush deceived the public
in any way to persuade the nation to invade Iraq.
.
Allegations, not facts.
.
And relentlessly asserting these allegations as if they
were facts is inflammatory and divisive.

no, the reason its become a question of partisanship is

you support Bush because of an unflailing, unwavering,
partisanship and not because ...yadda yadda.

why you'd still think that, i'm not sure. i believe
many of us "pro-dubyers" (??) have all freely said we
would have rather have had mccain in office. i believe
many of us "blind george lovers" have said we strongly
disagreed with some of his calls (like nasa spending or
gay marriage stances or the illegal alien decisions, etc,
etc). i believe many of us "flag waving supporters" have
clearly shown we're anything but.
.
i shouldn't have to point out all the situations where i
agree or disagree with the president to clarify whether or
not i'm capable of making up my own mind. reading through
this forum, or even just this thread, you'll see dozens of
instances where you can get a handle on our views.
.
this is such a strong partisan division because you
are making it out to be.

in reality, this is simply a disagreement, and (should be)
nothing more.

but we've given those reasons. 20 pages worth. you
disagreeing with them is one thing. thats fine. you
ignoring them and stating they have no basis simply
because you're ignoring them and feel they have no
basis is silly.

we don't like or agree with your viewpoint, but we respect
that you have one, and respect that its different. i
think you'll find the conversation flow much smoother were

a valid gripe.

if anything, i'm frustrated over the lack of wmd's, and
the "egg on your face" outlook it gives. but i still
agree with and support the decision, even above and beyond
the "iraq is now free" sentiment.
.
i feel the story broke down like this:
.
the world knew saddam's iraq was a bad place. for
decades. we hadn't done anything (major) because there
wasn't an imminent need (for us).
.
9-11 hits.
.
the world changes. view points change. realities change.
things taken for granted change. this was now a world
where silly bad people in funny sounding countries who
made threats had to be looked at seriously.
.
saddam was that target. not that he had any direct link to
9-11, but a very strong indirect link. judging by his own
past, and the future of this changed new world we live in,
i find it perfectly acceptable to believe he could be the
next osama, and help plan the next 9-11. accurate or not,
i find zero fault with that suspicion.
.
fact: we knew that he had wmd's. we had discovered and
encountered them, first hand. we knew that he had the
gusto to use them. we knew that he hated the US. we knew
he had the ability to hide them with incredible skill (due
to blix's inability to discover enormous stockpiles
despite nearly 20 years of searching).
.
all of these facts were not simply based on bush, or
US intelligence. this was a common knowledge, spreading
throughout the globe. everyone from france to russia to
japan to canada "knew" there was stuff going on in there -- completely separate from the bush admin.
.
the UN knew saddam had things he shouldn't. that's why
there were inspectors in the first place. there are large
amounts of chemicals and weapons that the UN (not the US)
has on record of being in iraq that are, somehow,
missing. tons of items that are unaccountable, to this
day. again, [known ] completely separate from the bush
admin.
.
adding all of that with the 9-11 outlook (with the US, of
course, bearing the brunt), and you have your [ basis
for ] iraq invasion -- which was based on many things,
including and highlighting iraq's decade of UN rebellion.
.
yes, i agree, the "urgency" viewpoint was based on the wmd
belief. and yes, that urgency may turn out to have been
misguided.
.
but even assuming that, because of the events that led to
the decision, i do not fault it. i do not feel it's a
cover up. i do not see it as a lie. i do not feel the
bush admin is the scourge of the planet -- especially when
the planet shared with the viewpoint.
.
and to you, thats all blind loyalty.
.
i'm hoping you now see otherwise.
.
I agree with this post so strongly, I wish I could make it
my signature.
.
Outstanding post, Rob.
I fully expect Whomod to go on bashing the very people who
are trying hard to preserve the freedom he so thoroughly
abuses.

As long as it doens't go past the holding hands stage, I'm ok with it. But if you try for second base, I'm going to be offended. Its not like Whomod has more than an A-cup.

Dave the Wonder Boy said: Whomod keeps making recurring allegations that whoever supports Bush does so "blindly", ignoring the "overwhelming" evidence against Bush. Which is only "overwhelming" from Whomod's skewed estimation, and that of similar Bush-hating liberals, who eagerly bask in every new unproven allegation.
Whomod alleges that "all criticism of the President" is labelled as "treason" by conservatives. It is not ALL, but only the most baseless, partisan and vicious allegations I and many others have voiuced a problem with.
Despite my answering this about a thousand times, and recently quoting where others here have answered and thoroughly disproven that stupid and dismissive notion of Whomod's regarding conservative opinion, again and again it is repeated by Whomod, over and over, despite that it has been disproven, OVER AND OVER.
Here is my rebuttal to Whomod's head-in-ass generalization of conservative opinion, AGAIN. Maybe someday it will sink in, and Whomod will move on to more credible fabrications.
The below is originally posted on page 30 of the "It's not about Oil or Iraq..." topic. And I've posted it several other times, when Whomod makes the same discredited allegations about conservative opinion:
_____________________________________________________
I see that Whomod is again alleging that anyone who disagrees with him is "blindly supporting Bush".
To which I again respond with this dose of reality, which I fully expect Whomod to ignore, as he did previously:
from the Nearly 200 killed in Madrid explosions topic, page 4: http://www.rkmbs.com/showflat.php?Cat=&Board=UBB27&Number=251436&page=2&view=collapsed&sb=5&o=&fpart=4

whomod said: . It's amazing to me that Bush is never wrong, never misinformed and anyone who disagrees with his Administration is instantly and always wrong. Entire nations are wrong, millions of voters are wrong or afraid if they don't vote to Bush's satisfaction, countless millions worldwide who protest the war are wrong. Sceientists and beuaracrats who speak out on what they know to be to be lies are wrong (ONLY when they contradict or dispute an Administration assertion of course If they happen to agree with Bush, then their expertise is impeccable). Any reports contradicting Bush's conclusions are wrong of course. After years of this logic, I think people are starting to wise up. . Now that Congress has pending legislation (S 89 and HR 163) to prepare for a military draft (after the election), we might think twice about the consequences of continuing to believe what President Bush tells us. . Incidentally,when the French resisted our call to invade Iraq, French fries became "freedom fries," etc. So are we to now get "freedom rice" and (my favorite) "the freedom inquisition" ?
.
Do you really believe your own rhetoric, Whomod? . Since this post immediately follows mine, I assume you're sweeping me into this "Neo-cons who blindly support Bush and believe everything he says" category. . Which is certainly far from the truth. Whether it's me, or Rob Kamphausen, or G-man or whoever, I think we've all made clear that we don't believe everything G.W. Bush or his administration says. They're politicians, just as Clinton, Gore, Bush Sr., Reagan, Carter, Nixon and the rest were before them. . I've not said or implied that G.W. Bush has never made a mistake or is eligible for sainthood or anything. I think most of us have made it clear we would have preferred McCain as our Republican presidential candidate, if he'd been offered to us instead of Bush. . But at the same time, I still largely support Bush, especially on his foreign/military policy. . I again say, neither Gore nor Kerry nor Dean would have had the courage to invade Afghanistan or Iraq, and eliminate the gathering and obvious threats in those nations. And we would have been "9/11-ed" again as a result. . And I'm confident that Al Qaida, the pro-Saddam insurgents in Iraq, and enemies of the United States worldwide would jump for joy if Bush were voted out in November. And that domestic "useful idiots" such as yourself as well would jump for joy (and again, that term is one used by anti-American Muslims in Al Qaida and other islamic radical groups worldwide for Western leftists' opposition to the U.S., Britain and other governments fighting terror). . I've certainly not been shy about my criticism of Bush, which I've posted on many threads here on the RKMB boards. . Here's one example I recently re-read: . Do liberals HATE the President", page 3 of topic: http://www.rkmbs.com/showflat.php?Cat=&Number=205476&page=0&view=collapsed&sb=5&o=&fpart=&vc=1&PHPSESSID= .

That last statement I find particularly hard to swallow.
. What's so hard to swallow? It's true!
. First of all, look at Europe and the rest of the democratized West, and look at the Middle East. . The level of violence and repression in the name of Allah certainly far exceeds that of the Christian world. . This was already explored in at least one other topic (although as usual, opinions varied) : . "islamic ignorance" http://www.rkmbs.com/showflat.php?Cat=&Number=206064&page=0&view=collapsed&sb=5&o=&fpart=1 .
If we fully explore this here, it will hijack this topic into another topic of Christianity vs Islam, and I think I've already taken this page further off-topic than I wanted to (sorry about that, G-man !)  . ~ . On topic, I think we've established a hatred for Bush among his liberal/Democrat critics. . And as it relates to the topic, as well as many other RKMB discussions here, I would be far more open to concede Bush's flaws, if not for the white-hot hatred (and resultant distortion of the facts) of the majority of criticism I see of Bush. . Has Bush made mistakes? Absolutely. And I hope everyone here can see that despite my sensibilities leaning toward the Bush perspective, I've voiced considerable criticism of his policies... . ( a quick review:
- Bush should be more public with disclosure of information, the perceived secretiveness breeds distrust of Bush, whether or not he is guilty of anything;
- in hindsight, he should have had a larger occupation force to invade Iraq, to prevent forseeable looting,
- Bush should be expanding U.S. military recruitment/enlistment by 400,000 or more, to insure we have the reserves to meet any situation in Iraq, Iran, North Korea or elsewhere.
- And although I'm less convinced now there is a military solution possible in Korea, I think Korea should have been invaded first instead of Iraq. Iraq could have waited a year or so, but Korea was clearly more immediate. In the six months of buildup and invasion of Iraq, Korea was known to be building nuclear weapons, and Bush allowed it to happen. (Although negotiations in Korea, though currently fruitless, now include China, Japan, Russia and South Korea, and are no longer just bilateral talks between the U.S. and North Korea. Which now puts more pressure on North Korea, particularly from China, to de-nuclearize.)
** I hasten to add, I give primary blame to the Clinton administration for enabling Korea to build nukes. THAT was the time to invade Korea, in 1994, instead of Clinton giving huge concessions and requiring no verification, that allowed Korea to go on secretly building nukes. Although again, Bush had his window of opportunity that he allowed to close as well.
- I'm not wild about the Bush tax cut, even though little of it has been enacted yet. And I think that tax cut should be repealed, to cover the additional homeland security and war expenses.
- And although I posted a few months ago I wouldn't re-elect Bush, at this point the Democrats' bitterly partisan opposition makes me far more inclined to re-elect Bush over the forseeable Democrat alterative in 2004. )
.
I consider that constructive criticism of the President. As opposed to the vitriol over the last year from many (but clearly not all) Democrats. Senators McCain, Biden and Lieberman are examples of constructive criticism. Howard Dean and John Kerry are examples of pointlessly divisive, Bush-can-do-no-right, scorched earth rhetoric, that selfishly divides the country just so they can exploit liberal anger and get more votes. . When Democrats "hate" the President, and produce venomous, deliberately misrepresentative and highly partisan articles and speeches accordingly, they don't convince moderate Republicans. They drive them defensively behind the president. I'm a personal example of that.
. So once again your ludicrous, venomous accusations have absolutely no substance. .

whomod said: Bush chose evidence that had already been discredited, to present to the American people. Evidence that was known to be false long before he presented it to the American people as PROOF of our imminent doom.
. Wrong again. . Bush presented--and made clear he was presenting--evidence that we received from British intelligence which, at the time, the British believed to be accurate. In fact, Britain still stands by that intelligence. . So, other than your own emotional reaction, you don't have one shred of actual evidence that Bush deliberately misled anyone.
. That's what bothers me about what Whomod is saying (and many other liberals as well ), voicing a relentless stream of unproven allegations against Bush, as if they are facts. . I don't have a problem with voicing the possibility of wrongdoing under any President, investigating, and asking tough questions. But I do have a problem with slander, relentlessly saying these allegations as if they were proven, to the point that the uninformed actually believe that these allegations are proven. That's deliberate and bitter misrepresentation. . No proof of "blood for oil". No proof of "Bush fought the Iraq war for his father". No proof of "Bush knew about 9-11 before it happened" (as Dean alleges). No proof that Bush and Cheney gave the contract to Halliburton through cronyism. No proof of a war profiteering motive by Bush's administration, to allegedly get themselves rich. No proof that Bush's White House leaked information about ambassador Wilson. And ultimately, no proof that Bush deceived the public in any way to persuade the nation to invade Iraq. . Allegations, not facts. . And relentlessly asserting these allegations as if they were facts is inflammatory and divisive.

. no, the reason its become a question of partisanship is because every time someone disagrees with you, you say something similar to: .
Quote:
whomod said: . you support Bush because of an unflailing, unwavering, partisanship and not because ...yadda yadda.
. why you'd still think that, i'm not sure. i believe many of us "pro-dubyers" (??) have all freely said we would have rather have had mccain in office. i believe many of us "blind george lovers" have said we strongly disagreed with some of his calls (like nasa spending or gay marriage stances or the illegal alien decisions, etc, etc). i believe many of us "flag waving supporters" have clearly shown we're anything but. . i shouldn't have to point out all the situations where i agree or disagree with the president to clarify whether or not i'm capable of making up my own mind. reading through this forum, or even just this thread, you'll see dozens of instances where you can get a handle on our views. . this is such a strong partisan division because you are making it out to be. . in reality, this is simply a disagreement, and (should be) nothing more. .
Quote:
whomod said: . I'd feel better about that if I were given reasons of why Bush earns your trust.
. but we've given those reasons. 20 pages worth. you disagreeing with them is one thing. thats fine. you ignoring them and stating they have no basis simply because you're ignoring them and feel they have no basis is silly. . we don't like or agree with your viewpoint, but we respect that you have one, and respect that its different. i think you'll find the conversation flow much smoother were some of that respect returned. .
