However, given that she’s a she, this news might not come as too much of a surprise to Bridgit. But this minor gender confusion hasn’t stopped Elijah at Inside Edge from suggesting that Bridgit is impotent for writing about Prince Harry’s military capers. Apparently Bridgit’s post is indicative of the “prevalent attitude to towards masculine virtue.” That’ll be news to all of the females fighting in armies around the world.

So if anybody would like to make a donation to GrodsCorp’s new Viagra For Bridgit Gread campaign send an email to the usual address.

Apparently GrodsCorp is “Australia’s hard left,” according to some hard right website. “Left” I’ll accept but I reckon “hard left” is a bit, well, harsh. (Not that I believe in the false left/right dichotomy anyway.)

I’m not very hard; I’m soft as hell. Ant and John are the very opposite of hard. And I’ve never met Bridgit so I can only speculate as to her hardness or otherwise. I mean, we’re so soft that we can’t drink lattes after midday or else we can’t sleep at night. We’re so soft that we put a dash of lemonade in our expensive imported lagers. We’re so soft that if a cafe only has white supermarket bread for our sandwich and nothing with rye in it we cry.

Apparently we’re also “like some kind of a Gollum with a prize” because we’re gloating over Kevin Rudd’s victory. That insult conjours an awesome image in my mind so it’s okay. (Not to mention that it’s utterly true.)

He hasss a latte. Gives it to meeeee! My precioussssss.

Receiving a promotion (demotion?) from GrodsReader to GrodsTeamMember is Ant Rogenous who will join John Surname, Bridgit Gread and I in writing for Australia’s bluest-and-orangest blog.

Welcome, Ant!

Many of us have said that Iain; Hall couldn’t sink much lower - now he has.

Not just content on creating a ridiculous fake Bridgit Gread blog and then denying it, he is now linking to the fake blog from his own blog posts to try and make it look like it’s actually hers.

Oh, the transparency.

Iain has lost every argument he’s ever had with Bridgit, and now the only way he can discredit her is with a fake blog full of made-up crap - unlike IainHall.com which features only the facts.

And there is also this, in case you needed any more proof that Iain created the page.

Update: Iain continues to deny the page is his:

It should also be noted that the blog has posts in it that date back as far as october (sic) 2005, some time before I even began blogging.

Because it’s not like you can’t backdate posts.

To quote The Ed - Iain is a lying liar who lies.

GrodsCorp’s Bridgit Gread has confirmed to me via email that she is not the author of the seemingly eponymous Bridgit Gread blog that has recently appeared on the internets. Bridgit may be a latte lefty but she’s not a neo-Nazi nor an anti-Semite.

Somebody (not to name any names) obviously has too much time on their hands and is trying to smear Bridgit’s good name. This anonymous person has cut-and-pasted all of Brigit’s posts from GrodsCorp into the fake blog, along with some charming quotes about Israel and Nelson Mandela. For instance, the only non-Grods post on the fake blog, Hitler was a good Socialist, is lifted straight from here.

Want any more proof it’s our unemployed Queensland friend? If you click on the tag About me . (sic) you are presented with the following semi-literate prose.

Ah yes in (sic) the it’s (sic) been claimed that…

– I’ve never done anything of note in my life
– I’m a Marxist and/or a psuedo (sic)-Marxist
– I’m a “stupid lefty” and/or a “leftard”
– I suffer from cognitive dissonance
– I suffer from a personality disorder
– I’m “completely nasty”
– I’m a gay activist
– I’ve “plumbed new depths”
– I’m ‘wankwoman’
– I “know a million words but can’t tell them apart”
– I think Clarence Thomas is a “darkie” who should never have left the plantation
– I should be ashamed
– I’m a “lazy, worthless, condescending oxygen thief”
– I have danced on Kerry Packer’s grave

All true.

I am an evil vampire

I find Some (sic) might be moved to say ‘oh how she loves to hate’.

I hope that’s true.

UPDATE (18/11): In further attempts to paint Bridgit as a man-hating lesbian and hard-core communist Iain has also lifted this lesbianism post from here, and this post on Trotsky from here.
