Blue Flypaper Black List
Thank you for helping make the Blue Flypaper Black List the nation's #1 Black List! (Make sure to stay away from these sites at all costs. It is probably a good idea to check here first before ever visiting a new site to make sure that they aren't conservatives!).
1. Independent Sources (added 8/9/05). If you look up "evil" in Wikipedia, these folks are there.
2. BoxerWatch (added 8/11/05). Anyone who doesn't worship Barbara is delusional.
3. BoiFromTroy (added 8/12/05). Sharp looking blog clouds evil politics inside.
4. Area417 (added 8/15/05). Against the ACLU? Surely they're joking!
5. Patterico Pontifications (added 8/16/05). Must be a Daily Breeze employee!
6. Alphecca (added 8/28/05). Happy to see me or is that a gun in your pocket?
7. Eyes on the Ball (added 9/1/05). Their site has a to-do list. It's missing "stop blogging!"
8. Hell in a Handbasket (added 9/1/05). The phrase "2nd Amendment" says it all!
10. "Mr. Minority." (added 9/6/05).Great name until you learn he's a white male!
11. "Odyssey" (added 9/7/05). Yet another heavily armed white male.(This one is in Iraq!)
12. "Blogonomicon" (added 9/10/05). A self-described "womyn-hating gun-toting right-wing reactionary."
13. "Samanta Burns" (added 9/16/05) Needs to learn she's supporting peeps who oppress her!
14. Mayor Sam's Sister City (added 10/16/05). Dared to attack Maxine Waters!
15. Fatman Chronicles (added 10/22/05). Insensitive moniker and union hater.
16. Next to Last Samurai (added 1/19/06).
One sure way to get blacklisted is to write about me and say something derogratory in your blog. That really, really hurts me inside and since I don't want senstive liberals to have to read such filth, I'm more likely to black list it so that no one reads it.
Support our Black List!

Elisa, being on this list is not a good thing. Of course disrespecting Barbara Boxer is not a good thing so you may not understand that. How many celebrities have you lauded on your site anyway? Probably zero, a fact that I think speaks for itself.
Oh, thank gGod! A list of sites I can feel comfortable visiting! Anyone who takes this POS blog seriously and thinks that Dan rather is some kind of god and that news needs interpretting (btw, journalism school teaches you NOT to interpret, just to report the facts, you morons!) definitely sucks ass if you ask me.
You are a mean person and it's too bad that you left a comment under "anonymous" since that tarnishes all anyonymous posters.
If all we needed was simple reporters, then we could hire pretty much anyone to do the news. No, we need reporters who can tell us what is going on and how we should be reacting to the news. That's a reporters job. Rather did that better than anyone. He did such a good job at the last inauguration to tell us (in so many words) that Bush was a pretender to the throne and that as good citizens, we should not like or support the man. That my friend, is reporting! If you want to go to the sites listed above then that is your choice but be forewarned you could easily end up a minority-hating gun-toting Timmothy McVeigh-loving POS after just a couple of casual reads! You've been warned!
"Interpreting" the news...?
So, let's see.
* We can't think for ourselves theologically, so we hire paid, professional [religionists] to preach to us, instead of learning how to study sacred verses on our own, in their original language, in their historical cultural context.
* We now can't even think for ourselves when events happen that people consider to be "news", so we need someone like Dan-o to "interpret" the news for us.
Kid, take a lesson from Nature, if nothing else: only baby chicks need their food "interpreted" by their mother. The rest of us call that food Vomit.
I once helped an undergrad instructor friend of mine grade freshman-level "position papers" she assigned to a particular class. Assuming this blog entry about Dan is a position paper, as are your comments about the "stay away" blogs, I'd give you an F.
In my humble opinion, you seem to fail to grasp or understand the following:
a) Those who "interpret" the news are Editorial writers, not reporters.
b) News outlets are market-driven, just like anything else offered on television. Perhaps there is a reason that Dan-o's successful "interpretive" news reporting landed him in last place among the Big Three? Must be the meanies, that's it - forget the fact that perhaps people watch the news to learn about the news, rather than one particular person's "interpretation" of it.
c) You claim things like "anyone who doesn't worship Barbara [Boxer] is delusional" without providing any evidence as to why Ms. Boxer deserves "worship", much less what would make someone "delusional" if they don't believe, in essence, that the sun, moon, and stars rise and set on her.
d) ditto for the ACLU...the group that never fails to fight any reference to Christian religious thought or comments in government, while encouraging Muslim protection of Islamic expression in public schools. If you wish to email me, I will take the time to search for examples of what I am talking about, and you can email me at shifting_paradigm1@yahoo.com.
e) Your comments regarding Mary Mapes are completely over the top, in this regard: your comment, "Losing Mary Mapes was also a blow. No one could rush a story through the system like her. Her "gut instinct" did what other producers required fact checkers to do." forgets the fact that fact checkers are *supposed* to be in the loop, as an independent review process. Yet fact checkers and editors still f*** up now and then, as Stephen Glass and Jayson Blair will tell you, among others.
F) finally, the big enchilada: your comment "Dan, I'd say that over 90% of the TV viewing audience wants and needs you back" completely (conveniently?) ignores Dan-o's third place in the ratings. Simple logic lesson for you: if "90% of the TV viewing audience" truly wanted Dan, wouldn't his ratings be higher than third place??? And, if Dan did such a good job reporting on Bush's military record (which was released to the Press in its entirety, as Bush signed the Infamous SF-180 release form without reservations), where was Dan's reporting on Kerry's military record, which held back over 100 pages of material, reported by Navy sources that were forbidden to comment on Kerry's record because JFK failed to sign a full-disclosure SF-180, as Bush did?
By the way, my name is Billy Schneider. I filed this comment under "Anonymous" simply because I didn't care to take the time to register in Blogger. So your assumption regarding "anonymous" posters once again demonstrates what I believe to be your rather (!) woeful lack of intelligence, reasoning ability, and wisdom. In other words, you're a young kid, and you really should spend more time learning and growing, and less time spouting off.
/sigh...kids...
I just found your site via Alphecca. That previous comment by Billy "Anonymous" Schneider is the funniest thing I've read in a long time. When taken in context, of course.
What must one do to get blacklisted?
Wow, so much love and so much (Republican) hate in one place. I just don't know what to do. I won't spend too much time here defending my comments re: Barbara Boxer and Dan Rather because of the following. Everyone knows that Boxer is beyond great. If you don't know it in your heart, then you know it in your brain (and if you have neither your name is Schwarzenegger!). Second, Dan Rather was #1 but CBS was #3. If he had been on any other network, say even UPN(!), then he'd been #1. If you don't believe me look it up in the Nielsens!
Now, as for Nightgaunt, what it takes to be blacklisted is to have a blog and spread conservative hate. If you do, you can be sure to find yourself one day on the Blacklist. (If you link to me you are most certainly going to get on the Blacklist).
Once you are on the list you will see your traffic drop to Zero and, I hope someday, advertisers won't want to touch you. Well, that is my dream and it's a good dream.
Ok I get it now. This site is just a caricature of a liberal with out any reasoning or thinking capability. Wow for a minute I was actually thinking that a person could be so stupid. Really had me going..good one, Maybe author works for onion or should?

No you don't! I've said this before, and I'll say it again, it will take a lot more to put this womym down that just calling me a joke. You remind me of the guy who used to come into the Free-Trade Coffee hut and act all cool and stuff. Then one day I see him driving down the street in an SUV! How many beavers and condors were killed to make that puppy run? We might as well pave Alaska now if that's gonna be how it is.
why am I not on the blacklist? I am upset. I have not posted in a month or so, but my site is obviously conservative. I even go to meetings to learn how to hate! I am so mad, I hate everyone so much, but no one hates me back! Waaa!
(moved from Blogger: http://www.eyesontheballnews.com)
Sorry Plutosdad, being a hateful conservative is not as easy as it seems. Your site is definitely conservative but it is not quite evil enough to be on the black list. I actually think that people will stay away from it on their own thus saving me the space on the list. Also, you don't say anything bad about me in your blog so it's hard to be made at you enough for the list but I'll keep an eye on you nonetheless.
i think i'm going to start a website just so i can get on the blacklist ... then i can show all my friends that i'm famous !!!
Believe me, it's no picnic being on this Black List.
I love your blog! This is wonderful. You make Swift look like an amateur. I think the "OED" and all other dictionaries should drop "Swiftian" as an adjective describing satire, replacing it with "True Blue-ian." Thank you!
Not sure if I should be honored or insulted!
Nice site!
Have you drawn your readers' attention yet to the despicable destruction of carbon=carbon bonds in the creation of man-made fabrics such as polyester and nylon? Your voice is so strong, your reasoning clear, I feel confident that YOU, True-blue, are the one annointed to alert the world about the evil use of petroleum products (oil! Halliburton!) to create nylon pantyhose (oppression! sexism!) which we womyn are forced wear by evil white males to feed their lascis . . lascivi . . uh - lewd and perverted desires.
Everytime I think about it, I get so mad I have to go buy another gun!
er . .oops . .
Womyn power!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
I haven't laughed this hard in a looong time!
RWR
A blacklist of sites? Whats the point, if you disagree with them your not likly to read them more than once.
Totally pointless
http://newportcity.blogspot.com/
Funny stuff. I've linked to you and expect that you'll probably blacklist me on general principle, even though you claim to support the troops.
Ma'a salaam...
I do support the troops and I'm not going to say some cliche thing like the best way to support them is bring them home. Nope, not me.
I feel the best way to support them is to:
1. Bring them home.
2. Give them demiliataristic training.
3. Give them sensitvity training.
4. Give them cultural training.
5. Give them jobs where they help people and don't kill them. I would make these high paying jobs because I respect that they misguidely "volunteered" to help their country so we should help them. If they did all of the above, I would give them lifetime employment and lifetime nurturing.
6. I would give them new skills like learning French and mime so that they had outlets to express themselves outside of the "kick ass" mentality pushed on them by the militarized industrial complex that runs the country.
Now how's that for supporting the troops? I love them as much as I love my cat "Che."
How could we pay for all of this you ask? By slightly increasing the taxes on this nation's super rich we could pay for it all.
You wrote: "A blacklist of sites? Whats the point, if you disagree with them your not likly to read them more than once. Totally pointless."
Then why have ratings on movies? Why have "warning stickers" on videogames? Why have ingredient lists on food stuffs? Why, why, why?
I'll tell you why, information is power. I see a day where people will be able to configure their browser to check the Black List prior to going to a site, this way they will be assured of steering clear of conservative propaganda. Would something like this have helped stop the rise of Fascism in Germany in the 30's? Perhaps. And perhaps it will be the thing that stops conservative fascism in our generation. We can only hope.
Hardly pointless my friend!
Oh my God.. This is so funny. Please... please... can more nutty Bushbots post? The hate just flows from their fingertips and onto computerscreens everywhere. What ignorant little fleas on the back of their fearful leader.
Odysseus: You taunt be on whether I support the troops, and I do, just not the way that Bush does. But let me tell you something, you want to come off as supporting the people of New Orleans yet you mock key aspects of their recovery, namely celebrities like Sean Penn. I think we all know that the real healing doesn't start until a few Hollywood celebrities come through and lend their name to the relief effort.
Plus the celebs help bring exposure to the plight of the people there on a story that might otherwise be on the back pages. As for Al Sharpton who better to interject racial overtones into the recovery. Unless you know someone better than Sharpton to do this then I'd expect you to get behind and support this man so that the victims don't have to go wanting on this as well.
Again I say blacklists, or in this pc age should we call them non specific color list? After all may be a law suit from someone claiming that the words black list together are oppressing the African or somesuch.
Anyway non specific colour lists are pointless, as is age ratings on video games and warning ons well pretty much anything really.
After all what is life without a bit of risk, and as I said if someone dislikes a site they sure wont bookmark it.

BLACKLIST ME, ALREADY!
http://www.livejournal.com/users/alashiya
Sorry, can't black list "Live Journals." Go to Blogger and start a blog. I'm pretty sure that Blogger is a liberally minded company so I don't mind sending people to them.
For a shrill, man-hating lefty womyn, youre' kinda cute! Do you know how to cook?
True Blue,
Don't you think constantly advertising your #1 National Black List is drawing attention to the very sites you want people to avoid?
And isn't your description for your #6 (referring to a man's erection) slightly sexist? From someone so liberal, I am surprised that you would choose such a sophmoric joke.
And I hope that Black List isn't an unsavory reference to African-Americans!! Why choose "black"? Why not grey?
You're only half as good a liberal as you think you are.
B
B those are good points. The "Black List" of course refers to the anti-communist witch trials of the 50s. It was one of our darkest days and was used to try and weed liberals out of Hollywood.
I hadn't thought about the negative implications of #6 and was making a reference to a line by Mae West--a womyn I deeply respect. I will have to be more careful.
Thank you for your support in keeping in keeping this an insensitive free blog!
True Blue,
I wouldn't risk saying that all Communists were (or are) Liberals--that's a pretty grand assumption. Joe Kennedy supported McCarthy, and even got Robert a job as an investigator during the "witch hunt" (which I agree is a dark page in American history, not unlike the current Patriot Act deeply entrenched into today's American Policy and supported by both Rebulicans and Democrats). A Communist also shot JFK--not a very Democratic thing to do.
And since you validate your offensive sexist remark concerning male gentiles by citing a hero, Mae West, I will similarly validate the following comment, said by my hero Norm Peterson on the long-running television comedy "Cheers!"--"Women. Can't live with them. . .pass the beer nuts."
True Blue,
Strike my last comments. I've been suckered.
I've been reading your blog carefully, and I'm pretty sure that you're someone who's masquerading as an ultra-left wing liberal just to drive ultra-right wing conservatives nuts.
By the venom some of these guys are spewing, you've been successful. Very well done!
B
B:
If you want to put me down you have to be more original than the "reverse psychology" of your post. I only wish that poverty were a joke and homelessness was satire. Alas, they are real and so am I.
By some of the comments left I can see how one might think that people treat this site as a joke. But if I can keep even one person from the clutches of the Republikkkan party then I've done my job. I have a lot of loyal readers who do not leave comments but support my just causes.
It's a burden, but it's my burden.
TB
Parody site, eh? No doubt in my mind.
BTW, when are you going to black list http://www.SamanthaBurns.com/ as promised?
You "threatened" her with the black list if she didn't go liberal, but since she refused to link to you she doesn't get blacklisted as promised?
I have a Samantha post almost done and yep, she's going up on the black list. Unfortunately, I was cat sitting for my friend and her cat, Che, got sick and I had to deal with that. Priorities! I decided to take Chai, my cat, in at the same time. Two cats, one VW bug, let me tell you it was no picnic.
Wha?!?! How can this be, you didn't mention ConservativeUnderground.com.
Remote viewing of "True Blue"...
You listen to "Rage Against the Machine" because some pothead boyfriend told you to do so in high school. You started this blog to blacklist conservative blogs in hopes that they would link to your pathetic attempt at blogging. The last date you had was with your cat and you wish that men didn't really hate you for your hairy armpits....
I think you just qualified for the "Worst Blog ever Award"... No feminism cookie for you...
Woo hoo, proudly made it as first womAn blogger to be blacklisted, and I didn't even have to try. I just wrote articles on my site from the logical, intelligent, non-protestor/freak/moonbat perspective.
And look, I made it to spot 13 on the list, which must mean I am the spawn of the devil to True Blue. Lucky 13.
Well, I hope you enjoyed playing with pussy in your Hitler-mobile (referring to above comment by TB).
Samantha (and sorry for mis-spelling your name earlier), I remain hopeful that you will return to your roots. I read on your blog that your boss also blogs with you. He sounds like an oppressive (presumably white, presumably euro-centric) dominating employer, so it makes sense that you've adopted his attitudes and opinions as a defense mechanism. Classic abuser/abusee stuff here.
Anyway, I look forward to the day you are free from his shackles and can write from a liberal womyn's point of view. At that point, I'll be happy to retire #13 and it can serve as a notice to all womyn that they don't have to be subservient slaves just because society wants them to be.
Mau10man:
I know that your comment is tongue-in-cheek. Who could have a problem with "Rage"? I mean, come on?
Thanks for bringing me a little laugh this morning as I sip my thai iced cinnamon tea.
In all the time that I have been reading these various blogs, I have yet to see one that is so lacking in believability...you couldn't possibly be serious about all the things that you have wrote here, could you?
I do sincerly hope your "view" of the world gets out as part of the mainstream liberal belief. Guaranteed victory for the foreseeable future for the proud and very often "Right" in this great nation.
Moonbat.
You Neocons need new talking points.
When you see something you don't like you say "It lacks believability" or "It distorts the truth" or my favorite "It's a joke."
You say that "Farenheit 9/11" had falsehoods. How can you be serious? It's a documentary, not fiction. You're just made at Michael Moore so you say he makes stuff up and distorts the truth.
You love celebrities when they are in movies but when they tell you what's going on in the world, they are called airheads.
You love Cindy Sheehan until she tells the truth and then you say that she is been exploited by the left and that her exremist views are in the minority.
And when it comes to a person like me who calls it like I see it, you make fun of me and my loyal readers.
I would think the neocons would be happy. We have 2 wars going on, isn't that enough to keep you occupied for awhile. What does it take to make you happy, invade Canada?
I think you need a scented candle tonight and some roselips in your bath. You need to settle down and relax.
You need to pull that cob out and let a man in there.
You are testing my patience. Of course so is George Bush with his desire to let so many people die in New Orleans so that Haliburton would get a big fat contract to rebuild it as a white city. Have you Republicans no shame?
What a joke...when are you liberals going to realize that Willy Bill Klinton was the first person to hire Halliburton for a govt contract?
Come on out into the sunlight, sweetheart...the air out here won't hurt you.
Moonbat. Sorry, barking moonbat.
From what I understand is that Clinton was blackmailed into using Haliburton. If he didn't the Republicans were goin to knock 10 million people off of welmare--many of them kids. Clinton did the best he could but in the end Chaney and his shadow goverment won out on that point. Clinton intended to expose the whole group but then he got set up by Karl Rove and Monica Lewinsky.
"Set up"?? Were you there when Klinton was getting his knob polished? How do you know it was a set up? Seems to me he likes big girls with big mouths...maybe you should give that a shot!
So Clinton gets his bits polished, then decides to lie about, gets found out and finally has to come clean(pardon the phrasing) - if thats what you mean by him being set up, then I get he must have been.
The only thing I can critise Clinton for aside from lying is his poor taste in interns.

I'm amazed you guys bought the conservative media's spin on this one. No sense rehashing arguments as your closed neoconservative minds are all made up. I bet you still think Iraq has WMDs too.
Just so you know in american culture making something taboo, like oh say black listing a web site, only encourages people to vist it these days. By the way are you really this liberal or just this stupid if this is a farce good job, I haven't laughed this hard since I saw Tommy Boy the first time.
By that logic we there wouldn't be warning stickers on anything. We have ratings on movies (R and NC tell you that there is sexism and probably violence against womyn), we have warnings on food for people with allergies and for bio-engineered food, we have 'no trespassing' signs. So why is it weird to have one place that sensible people can go to make sure that they don't end up at a conservative hate site by mistake. If you went to Alphecca you might get shot at (in a literal sense). Anyway, you get the idea.
It is a sad thing that some people just like to spread hatred and falsehoods. Those are the people I put on the list and with a few exceptions most people are very happy with it's existence. The only unhappy ones are those blacklisted because their traffic drops (I assume) and it certainly can't help with their advertising efforts.
Hey Blue, you should make us a banner or something for our websites. Some of us wear our blacklisting quite proudly, you know.
You said: "One sure way to get blacklisted is to write about me and say something derogratory in your blog."
While I'm not too sure it's all that derogatory, does this qualify?: http://jiminger.com/blog/?p=34
Jim
I'd say that this: "In this same category is the sheer stupefying lunacy of blueflypaper" is derogratory.
If helping the poor and fighting hatrid are lunacy, sign me up.
"If helping the poor and fighting hatrid are lunacy, sign me up."
"Stupefying lunacy" relates, not to those specific intentions (i.e. helping the poor and fighting hatrid[sic]), but to both the coherence of your ideas and the deleterious effects of their practical outworking.
These ideas in practice have the opposite effect as their intentions (as do most liberal policies).
But then again, you probably knew that as this blog is really satire ... right? ... :-)
Jim
This is where I disagree with you and your neo-con buddies, I see nothing "satrical" about poverty. I guess it just cracks you up to see people living in the streets.
Also, how in the world does it hurt people or our economy to give people well paying jobs? Paul Krugman, a noted Princeton University Economics professor and NYT columnist, has advocated this for years. Or is the New York Times satire too?
You're great! Of COURSE the NY times is satire. Not quite as good as yours - but still not worth taking seriously.
You almost had me there.
