Piper, my friend,
Will you be blowing the bags on the Capitol steps for this event? The crowd might be a little light, I suspect, but play for yourself, man, like any musician learns to do.
Real American spews:
Bring on the Klowns!
Real American spews:
C’mon Klowns Sing your protest song!
“I’m tired of having my taxes lowered, and my infrastructure tended to!!!”

Hey, what’s the fun of being in the opposition if you can’t whine? And, if the history of conservatism in this nation is any sort of guide, let me offer the medical diagnosis of that condition: Chronic Whining Disorder. Conservatives whine, that is simply, and wholly, what they do.
ArtFart spews:
Hey, it might attract five seconds’ worth of exposure on the evening news, assuming there’s something else to get a camera crew in the area like terrorist alert or a multi-car pileup on I-5. At least it beats the daylights out of Eyman in some Halloween costume.
Broadway Joe spews:
It’s the March of the Morons! Winguts in their cammie-jammies, all what, thirty or so of them, admitting their idiocy before the whole world! Or at least to that homeless guy in Olympia who likes to argue with telephone poles.
Maybe he’ll listen.
Honestly, this vaguely reminds me of the far-left nutjobs that got arrested (?) by the government for refusing to pay what they considered ‘war taxes’. I remember seeing some documentary on them on Sundance or IFC once…..
Politically Incorrect spews:
That’s right. Let’s just give everything to government. It always knows what’s best for us, especially when it comes to consuming wealth.
Mr. Cynical spews:
What really angers the KLOWNS is this is a non-violent protest…the kind they constantly spew about their “right” to have thru their ACLU mouthpiece.
It’s hysterical that the LEFTIST KLOWNS now poke fun of a group exercising it’s right.
The Washington Dems are in huge trouble.
Overspending.
Gregoire PROMISED No Tax increases.
The Union & Bender have shown their corrupt behind the scenes activities.
It’s about time!
Hey, let’s see a tax increase Ballot Initiative.
The KLOWNS will get their ass handed to them.
From today’s Rasmussen:
The KLOWNS are losing their grip….fast.
Just as I predicted.
Give a KLOWN a bar of Gold….and in a few minutes, the KLOWN will turn it into a pile of steaming, smelly shit!
Losers!
Mr. Cynical spews:
Obama’s numbers are slipping in comparison to the popularity of other new presidents, according to a column in Friday’s Wall Street Journal by Scott Rasmussen and Democratic pollster Doug Schoen.
Schoen is a big-time Democratic pollster…who happens to be accurate most of the time…much to your collective chagrins.
Why would Schoen do something with Rasmussen if he thought Rasmussen wasn’t reliable??
Answer: He wouldn’t
Checkmate KLOWNS.
As Puddy pointed out, Rasmussen is tied for 1st in reliability.
You KLOWNS post polls from sources that are ranked 20th or WORSE!
Shows what a bunch of losers you are.
Get the facts…although you KLOWNS hate Inconvenient Truths, don’t you!
YLB spews:
How about instead we start a war and pass the bill to the little kiddies not even born yet?
Then it’s not a wingnut’s problem.
YLB spews:
Idiot @ 9
See comment 4.
YLB spews:
This is too funny!

Don spews:
What cracks me up is righties who refer to every tax protest as a “Tea Party”, but know nothing about history. The Boston Tea Party was not so much a tax revolt as a protest against corporate welfare. The East India Tea Company was given an exemption from the tea tax that other companies did not get. Maybe lefties should dump a few Boeing planes into Elliott Bay…

The Truth spews:
Now this is funny the chump talked doom and gloom for two months. If you do not act today US will be destroyed by the weight of our recession. This is the biggest crisis in American’s history. Save whatever money I left you. The end is near my dear Americans.
Now what will the chump says while sucking on a lollipop and skipping to OZ???

The Truth spews:
Hey, libs nothing is stopping you from sending the Fed’s or State of Washington all the money you want. A Ex-President cheapskate Clinton once said Hey, there giving me tax breaks I do not need them (but I shall gladly take it).
All libs are the same since it does not cost them anything there for tax increases.
Remember all the screaming here about tax increases in Seattle….
Honest Republican spews:
Republicans should “go Galt” and give 100% rule to the Democrats. After 5-10 years of that the voters will clamor for the GOP to come back!
proud leftist spews:
Truth
I gotta say, what a helluva last minute grab for the Goat. Just 2 more hours of competition, buddy. Ramp up the nonsense and you just might close the deal.
The Truth spews:
@18
5-10 years , they would never last that long maybe 1-2 years at best.
They live day to day off the backs of working people.
Puddybud, Hey it's the new year... spews:
Wow, the monomaniacal one@12 isn’t hiding his drinking of the kos man-juice kook-aid today.
Way to go knuckle dragger. Way to go clueless village idiot. You live up to the Goldy pet chimp image.
Puddybud, Hey it's the new year... spews:
knuckle dragger@12 reread this comment.
Don’t get teabagged!
YLB spews:
LMAO @ the idiot in 22.
I don’t follow your orders…
What a moron! And so boring…
You blew it. It’d be a miracle if you get the Goat for this week on account of you being so lame ass.
Piper Scott spews:
Hey DeVore!
Thanks for promoting our event! You’d be surprised how many liberals are PO’d about the prospect of a state income tax or raises in existing taxes especially in light of the failure of the legislature to address profligate spending that still exceeds projected state revenue, which is slated to be some 2.1 percent higher than last year.
Even with more dough coming in the door, the Legislature still can’t balance the books. Too much time paying off the knuckle draggers and breakers) at the Washington State Labor Council, I suppose.
The Piper
Piper Scott spews:
@4…PL…
Whine? Moi? When have you ever known me to whine? I make others whine – I am the worst nightmare of the HA Happy Hooligans.
No pipe this time – I’ll be there doing other stuff.
The Piper
proud leftist spews:
Yes, indeed, the hour has arrived—it is time to announce the winner of the second HA Troll of the Week Award (aka the Golden Goat). Once again, we had stirring, spirited, spitfire competition. The vigor with which our trolls went head to head to grab for the Goat was truly inspiring. Most impressively, they kept at it until the very end, reminding me of two old heavyweights slogging it out in the late rounds, their legs ready to give out, their eyes swelling shut, the weight of their gloves almost too much to lift, but their will to win, dammit, undiminished. Yes, trolls, you’ve got gumption, and all of us thank you for providing us an opportunity to observe and enjoy your efforts.
Now, given that we’ve only done this once before, it might be helpful to again set out the criteria which a number of HAers offered last week as instructive to picking a winner. Examples of such criteria include: illogic; failure to think beyond the simplistic (classic troll examples: the stock market is down, so Obama is bad; or, it is cold, so global warming is a hoax); racism; failure to understand criticism or recognize either humor or sarcasm; obliviousness to how stupid one appears; failure to even examine one’s own sources and misinterpretation of such sources; blind partisanship; the inability to lace two sentences together and treating rules of grammar and punctuation like hostile forces; incoherence; refusal to condemn anyone on the same side no matter how ridiculous or offensive the position; failure to recognize that the GOP got its ass kicked in November; volume of nonsense spewed; and, simply, never adding anything of value to the discourse. Again, however, remember that while such criteria are helpful and lend some objectivity to the selection process, ultimately the determining factor is more intuitive—to paraphrase Justice Potter Stewart’s definition of pornography, we know true trollness when we see it.
So, how do we whittle down such strong performances this week to come up with just one fellow who gets to climb atop the medal stand? A number of you offered your selections and I could disagree with none of them. We have so many deserving trolls, and the thought of hurting any of their feelings is abhorrent. They all deserve our love and care. Still, this is a contest, and unlike in kindergarten, we can’t give each troll a medal. We have to pick a winner.
Before announcing the victor, I must give special mention to a few of our contestants who clawed and clamored for the Goat like frat boys fighting for the last beer at a party. How can we not acknowledge The Truth’s sterling efforts this week? And, manoftruth’s last minute Hail Mary to try to retain his title? And, of course, Puddy—always there, always ready to back up his argument with an unsupportive link. Guys, I’m sorry, but it just wasn’t quite your week.
Enough, I suppose, by way of build-up. It is my great privilege to announce the winner of this week’s Troll of the Week Award . . . And, the Goat goes to—
Mr. Cynical. Yeah, you did it, man. Stand up and take a bow. Now, I’m sure some of you might contend that this week’s effort wasn’t Cynical’s best, that he could have ramped it up a bit. There is plenty to say for that contention. Still, there is also something to say for longevity. Cynical has been with us a long time, persistently and consistently filling threads with his own special blend of smugness and smarm. We simply have to admire and honor him for his steadfast adherence to his beliefs no matter how forcefully reality might be slapping his ass and for his unmitigated arrogance despite standing naked and limpdicked in front of the facts. He tenderly clings to his ideological nonsense like a fat man cuddles a frosted doughnut. Plus, how can we not thank him for his endless proselytizing? I could go on and on (I mean, hey dude, what’s with living in Montana and posting endlessly here?), but I think I’ll just end this by extending a simple congratulations. Cynical, you did it.
correctnotright spews:
Rah rah cynical! Sis boom bah!
It is tough every day to come on a liberal blog and spout negative stuff about Obama, or negative stuff about liberals or negative stuff about supposed liberals.
And where would we be without the lovly name-calling: “KLOWNS” or “PINHEADS”. I just love when he calls me that…..ooooh, it just sends a shiver up my spinal cord all the way to my amygdala.
Gee, I really miss the poor logic, the inability to argue the facts or even acknowledge facts. You see, the facts do not mater to cynical. The liberal clowns need to be smacked down. and cynical takes his job of educatin’ us seriously (’cause, of course, he HAS no other real job or education).
Broadway Joe spews:
Cyn can quote his bible all he wants, but he’s still just about the dumbest bastard in the ship of fools. But that’s all the trolls have left now, schoolyard name calling.
Today’s GOP: Would you give a third-grader access to The Button?

Typing over 500 words to say what that you can be boring to the point of putting us asleep?
You standing up to your award of a sand granule brain.
proud leftist spews:
Truth,
I’m sure you must be bitterly disappointed at being denied the Goat again, especially given that you had a huge lead early in the week. All I can say is get back up on your horse and ride, man.
Greedy corporate conservatives are just plain EVIL spews:
Jump Cynical Jump.
The Truth spews:
@27
Liberalism is negativism your talking heads are worried and the truth is coming down to your level of understanding. Obama should never been installed. You all are aware of this now so what will you do stand behind a loser or jump ship.
You say “It is tough every day to come on a liberal blog and spout negative stuff about Obama,” Get used to it granule brain.
Rujax! spews:
Oh boy…
I REALLY thought my man the puddybiotch brought game this week day after day…all week..lunchbucket and hardhat…post after agonizingly, insufferably stupid, irrelevant post…

I’m guessing we’ll have a real donnybrook next week!!!
All trolls…all the time…tag team CAGE-MATCH!!!
Yeaaaaaaahhhhh!!!!!!
Rujax! spews:

Steve spews:

That said, I will never put my money on that bee-atch Piper again, dammit!

I will wear the award bestowed upon me like a Badge of Honor…
I owe my success to all the right-headed folks like Puddy, Marvin, The Truth, Rick D et al.

steve spews:
It would appear that Mr. Clynical’s success has overwhelmed him.
Speaking of nutcases, where’s Marvin? I hope he didn’t have another breakdown. The last one in November took him out for over a month. Hmm, he probably shouldn’t have returned until he had at least one foot planted in reality. So sad. Let that be a lesson for you, Mr. Clynical. Delusions have a lousy future.
proud leftist spews:
Hey Cynical @ 39,
I’ll hand it to you for graciously accepting the Goat. You almost lost it the other night for calling out one of your fellow true believers. I respected that. Still, the Committee had to look at the overall record. Once again, congrats.
Oh, BTW, I believe that the Lord smiles down at me, and those on my side of the partisan fence, too. That would be because we are all loved and fall short of the glory of God, every damned one of us. Your continued suggestions that you are more blessed than others is why you won the Goat this week. Gonna go for it again?
Mr. Cynical spews:
BADGE OF HONOR!
