The Dan Lee Report

Who is the Daily Kos? It is a group of some of the most extreme leftist pundits in the United States of America, & has slowly become the “unofficial” voice of the Democratic party on the web over the last 8 years.

A couple days ago Barack Obama made a statement that “families are off limits” & political campaigns & “especially their children”, but of course made no direct call for the media to stop their current attacks.

Why did he stop short of condemning the Daily Kos for their incessant personal attacks?
The reason is of course that while he’s claiming to condemn them publicly, his campaign is of course hoping it that the smear stories of these extreme left websites will do enough damage to hand them a victory. They do not care whether or not it’s moral to make these attacks, or if there is on iota of truth to any of them.

The Daily Kos continues to try to discredit Sarah Palin by any means they can find, whether it’s ethical or not, including attacking Palin’s 17 year old daughter for being pregnant out of wedlock. As if THAT’S never happened to any good family before, whether liberal or conservative.

Why does this matter? It matters because like it or not, the Daily Kos reaches a lot of people, & they are heavily funded by democrat contributions. They are in fact one of the lagest voices of the Democrats, & many would argue THE largest online voice they have. Here are their stats.

I would like to see people contact the Obama campaign & ask him to make an HONEST condemnation of this kind of behavior. One that actually has some tangible effect.

I’m not optimistic that he will come out & call for the Daily Kos,The Huffington Post, or the moveon.org of the web to stop their attacks, but none the less the voices of sensible & fair people should be heard by the Obama campaign on this issue. Please contact them & ask them to condemn the dirty pool that’s being played by their biggest online voices, as well as the Main Stream Media outlets that they keep snugly in their pockets.

*Update*
Drudge wasn’t even the first to put it out there.. It seems some people may owe him an apology.
(see below)

I’m a little sickened by this lynch mob mentality that’s emerging among some “so called” conservatives who are now threatening to banish Matt Drudge for all eternity over his albeit foolish story on Prince Harry in Afghanistan..

I mean yeah, it was obviously poor judgment, & not a mistake I think I would have made, but God knows we all make them.

So would the first blogger to never have put his or her foot in their mouth please throw the first stone? Well Hmmm….. I think Matt is Pretty safe now..

Folks should be voicing their displeasure to Matt Drudge, but not lowering themselves to the level of vitriolic hate speech that we expect to hear from the likes of the Berkeley Ca. city council against our own military.

It just makes conservatives look more like the ravenous back stabbing Demoncrats when we start pig piling on one of our own as soon as they make a mistake.

Matt Drudge has done a lot of great things for both Conservatives & the Blogger world, even if he’s not a fan of everyone’s blogs.

Call him a blabbermouth, fine.. But a tabloid? That’s a wee bit extreme..
I think we owe the man just a little bit more respect than what’s being shown right now.

The last thing we need is for Conservative bloggers to start adapting the elitist, self righteous attitude that is so pervasive in the MSM.
