I copied & pasted a string of my unpublished comment submissions (re: Herman Cain) right from The New York Times website, then, innocently enough, while preparing a blog post, got a look at the html code.
Oops.
Every single comment I submitted starts with the notation ‘Bozo Comment’! Now, I’m not Bam-Bam. I know this isn’t all about me. So, unless this is a code thing I am ignorant of (which is entirely possible) then this is their attitude towards us! OMG!
So, below is a screenshot of (a portion) the code of my unpublished comments. Then a screenshot of the first (and thus far only) snarky comment about Herman Cain theydid publish, submitted by some fool in Texas, who, by virtue of being in Texas ought to know better. Then, finally, the text of the unpublished comment submissions (which were visible to me only) from which the underlying html code screenshot was captured.
It’s fun to play with Progressives. I find their psyche fascinating in a repelling sort of way.

Does this mean we get our President in 30 minutes or less or delivery is free?

Herman Cain is not a victim. He’s not oppressed. He’s not p*ssed off.
Good.

Will you publish comments that are positive about a black CONSERVATIVE?

How are you going to cover Mr. Cain? He’s black. But he’s a conservative.
You’re kinda scr*wed, huh?

If he were a Democrat, would the headline be “Ex-Pizza” guy? Cuz I don’t think I remember “Ex-Peanut Farmer Gets in the Race” or “Ex-Community Organizer Gets in Race”
Funny how that happens.

I *love* this guy. He’s Obama’s WORST NIGHTMARE. He’s a living, breathing example of America’s BEST SELF. Oh, and just as a weekend bonus, he actually wrote his own books, and completely kneecaps the race card option.
Heh heh heh.
Yup. My man Herman. PRESIDENT CAIN 2012!!!!!!!!!
