The Blair/Bolt Watch Project
 | Posted by The Editor on Sunday 6 April 2008, 7:43 pm Categories: Blogosphere, Media, Politics Tags: Tags: AndrewBolt, BoltWatch, groupthink, TheBlairBoltWatchProject, TimBlair |
For two years Jeremy Sear has worked hard at BoltWatch to focus a magnifying glass over Andrew Bolt’s writing, but given that Andrew Bolt and Tim Blair so furiously groupthink it seemed only logical that their writing was watched in unison. So today Jeremy, along with GrodsCorp’s The Editor and Ant Rogenous, are pleasured to launch The Blair/Bolt Watch Project which has as its mission: “tackling the multiple idiocies of the Australian blogosphere’s most giant, useless forces.”
Go visit. Comment. Have a cup of tea.

I wish I wasn’t so thrilled about this…
But I am ashamed to admit that I am so fascinated by these idiots, what they write, and mostly that they manage to convince people that their offensive drivel is not only reasonable, but right (in the non wing-nut sense)

Three years, sadly. And “are pleasured”? Doubt that’s a likely consequence of the enterprise, sadly.

Too many sadlies.

Jeremy’s turned emo hippy. Very sad.

Cheer up, anonymous kid!

Well done, a capital idea.
Did anyone notice that ‘Blair Watch Project’ sounds a lot like ‘Blair Witch Project’? No-one? Just me? OK.

I can’t help thinking such a site gives this pair of arse some sort of status they’d actually enjoy.
Bet if it’s a way of holding them to account and allowing us to post replies calling them a cunts and fucktards then I’m all for it.

Yeah, at last! I look forward to you folks really getting stuck into those schmucks. And, like Wah, being allowed to call ‘em names.
Bridgit, I think someone gave Jeremy the idea on his blog, re “Blair Witch/Watch Project”.

They have the internet on computers nowadays…and they serve tea as well.

bridgit, jeremy stole it off of me

“Stole” is a very strong word, AAW. I think he borrowed it from you and made some very fundamental changes in capitalisation and layout of the words — just enough to ensure that you weren’t owed a cent in royalties.

conflab lefty latte sippers

I’ve worked it out. If lefties drink latte, thenh surely right-wingers drink tea - English breakfast, the missionary position of teas.
Monday 7 April 2008, 12:24 pm #Bron
Ah, no, Wah. Wrong wrong wrong. I drink English Breakfast Tea (and peppermint tea and Earl Grey Tea and Irish Tea and all the rest), so think of something else that the RWDBs drink.
I ain’t sharing my English Breakfast Tea wif ‘em.

To my enduring shame I drink more Nescafe and Tetleys than I do lattes or Earl Grey.
(I’m letting the side down, I know.)
Monday 7 April 2008, 12:35 pm #Bron
Hmmm. I drink Tetleys and the occasional Nescafe too. Maybe I’m really… no, too horrible to contemplate.

I notice that ; has already made an
attacker a compliment … WTF?Monday 7 April 2008, 3:44 pm #Bron
And ; has linked the father and daughter having sex to ‘leftards’ - as in, lefties would support this kind of union.
Um, no, ;;;;. Dead wrong, you are.

And ; has linked the father and daughter having sex to ‘leftards’ - as in, lefties would support this kind of union.
I’m sure somewhere in the Little Red Book there’s a passage stating - ‘Workers of the world unite! You have nothing to lose but your incest taboo!’.

Why is Bolt on the right and Blair on the left? Is there any significance to this?
… Don’t mind me. I’m just paranoid.
Monday 7 April 2008, 5:45 pm #Bron
But standing next to the dude with the binoculars, Bolt is on the left and Blair is on the right… innit?
Monday 7 April 2008, 6:15 pm #The Editor
Left and right is a false dichotomy.

Pfft, fish, barrel, gelignite. Why don’t you lazy lefties do something hard for a change? You sit there in your ivory towers while poor underprivileged News Ltd hacks try to twist the world to fit their pained and demented reality. Do you understand how debasing it must be to put your name to the kind of shit that Andrew Bolt has published? The man deserves the Grand High Medal of Rupert for his efforts.

Where do I send my suggestions for the Project?
