This is a cross-post from MyLeftWing. Basically AbbeysBooks warned a UGOG a few years back to disassociate himself from those operatives. MaryScott O'Connor made an appearance. She basically showed how clueless she is, that she is easily manipulated by those fake lefties sending her cash or otherwise kissing her mental illness booboos.
By the way, MSOC has deleted a diary in which she said she'd never accept money from political candidates. My theory on her is that she is making money off of her website. Whether she is a chump getting bird feed from the likes of pro-military whench Curmudgette or from prolific KosKop, KarmaFish and the few other irrelevant writers such as cleverguy82 and devilishadvocate, she has pretty much sealed her fate as being a Markos Alberto Moulitsas Zuniga guarddog. She banned Francis Holland. Scum like Mudge and fishstench are the worst of KosKops. They run someone's reputation into the ground, then they act all innocent saying they didn't want anyone banned.
More after the break. Get yourself a soda. This is gonna be a good one. {also, make sure to check out Francis' Truth About Kos website where yours truly shows once again how guerilla blogging is really done, unlike this fake shit pumped out by MattyJack and the other looooosers.}
:: ::
So MattyJack is acting out a fight with fellow operative Laurel S, who only Lord Byron believes is a female, and only because he has some serious issues with vaginas. [/digression]
It's this simple. I kicked KarmaFish's butt in debate. I troll busted his sorry 15,000 post ass in broad daylight. He admitted to going to MyLeftWingNut to "fight" with Francis Holland. Cue up what a fool believes by the Doobies.
And here we have MattyJack trying to rewrite history. He takes down the UGOG files, he puts them back up. He repeats the cycle. I, on the otherhand, never waver from outing cointelpro-like scum on the internet. MattyJack was talking trash about how many lurkers this place was getting. Uhm, it was because of me. I made a diary at DailyKos sticking up for Dave and Francis. There were a quick 200 of the cheesiest fake lefty responses one could imagine. In my defense, I always knew Daily Kos sucked. You chumps with your soap blox and Kos-centric dribble ought to be embarrassed.
Anyway, Francis' blog got a lot of new readers. I'm sure this place did too. But before MattyJack gets too excited, the truth is out there that he had zero to do with the outing of the UGOGs. The truth is out there that this guy is in all probability some kind of plant. Hey, when the #2 or three poster is Curmudgette her smelly self, you know this place is ultimately a joke.
Without further ado....
The Revenge of AbbeysBooks
Revenge is sweet. I hope MSOC doesn't mind a bit of "I told you so" from the lovely and talented Abbeysbooks.
Here's the link {below Dr. Evil} where Abbeysbooks explained in 2007 how she got run off of DailyKos for no good reason. Yeah, at this point we all know that the DailyKos sucks and is full of rightwing Democrats, middle of the road, selfish haters. But for those who ignore the UGOG files, you do so at your own peril. They prove how the internet is rigged. The two most arguably successful, rightwing, cash cows masquerading as progressives have been DKos and the Democratic Underground, and now we have the proof due to David Weintraub's trollbusting that they have been rigged! Sure that link is to an FSZ domain. Don't let that fool you. Dave got banned from FSZ after exposing the UGOGs, and this link was taken down by Jack for a chunk of time, when he claimed that FingerFlaw, Bottles/condoleaser, and Michael Bouldin are regular guys. Yeah, and Manny is just being Manny? Er, maybe a bad example. But you know what I friggen mean.
All I could do was laugh and laugh as I imagined blue vertigo, majorflaw,dadanation, andgarden, truth of angels, DMiller and all the rest of that cabal who stalk you to troll rate and get you banned
MSOC:
dadanation is a great friend of mine. NOT at ALL one of the haters. Don't know where you got the opposite idea, but just to clarify -- SO not the case.
It would be advisable for you to stay away from that group of trolls or you will sink with them. Many others are now on to them. And waiting.
Check out the UGOG files. Dadanation shows up in the first week or two.
FingerFlaw is the one who definitely needs to be investigated. He has acted precisely how one would expect a cointelpro agent to act like if they were dominating major forums. Fifth column.
The astroturfers are scrambling to make this whole thing seem like personal vendettas between anonymous usernames. Perhaps if one were to just go with Fingerit's attacks on Dave with his Lessons of Long Island diary, this ruse could continue. There one can see how Fingerit supported rightwingers like Hannity and Bill O'Reilly. They can see how the top Kos administrators punished Dave and gave this MajorFlaw of a human their support. Maybe even though Fingerit was clearly sidetracking the essence of Dave's essay, it could be seen as some kind of immature give and take.
I've been very curious what started the animosity between Dave and MajorFlaw/Ugog. I figured it out yesterday. The origination of the bad blood confirms that Fingerit supports rightwing hate radio and wanted to knock the effective activist down.
Mark Levin's (buddy of Rush, sidekick of Hannity) book signing scheduled for December 1st in Ridgewood has been cancelled. Levin then spent 45 minutes engaging in a verbal tirade and urging his listeners to go harass me, rhetoric which is inviting not only very serious legal action tens of times more serious than what has already occurred but possible legitimate polic action as well. This cancellation came after one of Levin's wingnuts "Pete From Long Island" posted for several hours on Levin's website that I should be "coldcocked" but only after the "cameras are taken out first." But instead of denouncing Pete from Long Island, Levin makes Pete from LI his 2nd phone caller of the show.
Levin then argues that my "entire biography" should be posted online, including my address, phone number, places of work, etc... Although worded coyly, Levin is basically urging his listeners to go out there and act like brownshirts. You can hear the disturbing audio here. Basically, the audio is full of name calling and incitement. It's very low, even for a dirtbag like Levin....
what inspired people to plan to go to Bookends Saturday? Was it me? No. There were calls across the internet for action prior to yesterday by many people whom I do not know. What motivated people was righteous outrage at Levin, Boyce, and Hannity for trying to have someone arrested because they didn't like my politics and were afraid of a question they thought I was going to ask. Regardless of politics, this touched a raw nerve in people and rightly so. There's no defense for Boyce, Levin, and Hannity and they know it and their lawyers know it.
Third, there's a fine but firm line between a public forum and a private business. A private business that invites people to its store for a big event is not the same as some New York City law firm that has an employee doing legal related work. The law firm isn't inviting anyone to its place just as Levin isn't inviting anyone to go stand outside his studio while he's broadcasting. Nobody on this site has advocated going to any bookowner's house, Levin's house, Hannity's house, Levin's business office, Hannity's business office, Boyce's residence, etc... For Levin to advocate that his Insanitized skinhead and neo nazi thugs should somehow harass me at truly private places such as a workplace that is not a public forum or my home which is not open to public events is way beyond the pale....

You chose to show up at a Hannity event and while there, stalked him with contextually trollish and obnoxious questions. They went overboard by calling the gendarmerie--which gave you the incident you wanted. Since then you have trashed any shot at a civil lawsuit by opening your big fucking mouth (legal term of art) all over the internets.

You accused him of an unethical and criminal act. His actions do not meet either definition. Attending a public event in a place of business that has been advertised can not be considered stalking. Was the guy from Webb's campaign who Allen called "macaca" a stalker?
Furthermore, since when is "your big fucking mouth" a legal term of art?
Finally, he didn't cry "rape" and you know it. He used an inappropriate analogy, but spare me the PC gotcha. No reasonable person would conclude that he really intended to compare his experience to the trauma and dehumanization of being raped.

How do you define justice? My version doesn't include frivolous lawsuits and stalking RW figures. His intentions may be honorable but his approach is not part of any solution. I'm just taking the opportunity to disassociate myself from him and his actions. by MajorFlaw on Tue Nov 27, 2007 at 07:58:23 AM PDT
First, none has been filed yet. And since my SOL runs a year, don't call a lawsuit frivolous when there is none.
Second, I've only sued someone once before and trust me, you couldn't have more compelling facts and evidence than what I had/have. (Not discussing this so don't ask.)
Third, I know the elements of false imprisonment in the state of NY and they match up like a tee to what Boyce did.
And guess what? Their lawyers know it too which is why they are losing their minds over me. Why would he spend 40 minutes of his nationally syndicated show yesterday on me otherwise?

COME ON MICHAEL FINGERIT, SUE ME FOR EXPOSING YOU AS APPEARING TO BE SOME FORM OF SPOOK. WHAT PROGRESSIVE WOULD EVER ATTACK A MAN FOR GOING AFTER RIGHTWING HATE RADIO? THE DAILY KOS PROTECTED THIS GUY. THEY ENDORSED HIS ACTIVITIES. DAVE WENT THROUGH ALL THE PROPER CHANNELS LOOKING FOR JUSTICE. MARKOS MOULITSAS ZUNIGA, WHO BELIEVES THE CIA IS A LIBERAL ORGANIZATION, NEVER SHOWED UP FOR ANY OF DAVE'S DIARIES UNTIL HIS LAST ONE, TO CALL HIM SOME FORM OF DRAMA QUEEN/KING.
IS THERE ANY REASON WHY KEITH OLBERMANN IS STILL POSTING THERE? SORRY FOR THE CAPITAL LETTERS, BUT ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. ANYONE WITH DIGNITY WANT TO JOIN IN AND HELP GET DAILYKOS COMPLETELY EXPOSED ONCE AND FOR ALL? WHERE IS THE CAVALRY? COME ON GOOD PEOPLE. WAKE THE FUCK UP. DAVE WAS A HERO. MICHAEL FINGERIT REEKS OF SOME FORM OF MODERN DAY COINTELPRO. SO DOES MARKOS MOULITSAS ZUNIGA.
The CIA Truth about Kos - Daily Kos
Kos's Missing Time Gap - Daily Kos CIA Truth
Kos's Anti-Gay Article Disapears!?! - Daily Kos CIA Truth
Dave was targeted for astroturfed ridicule precisely because he was willing to get beyond mundane meta-wars among anonymous usernames. Not only did he find the UGOG files, he figured out real names. Not only did he prove that such people have been manipulating the Daily Kos, he showed how such activities were being encouraged and sanctioned by upper level administrators including Markos Moulitsas Zuniga.
Dave put his heart and soul into being a blogger. He desired for on-line activism to equate into gains in real life democratic processes. He was not obsessed. He had stumbled onto insidious activities preventing such lofty goals. That is why he had been attacked so viciously.
Dave eventually ventured over to the Democratic Underground. Unfortunately, he had no idea at the time that he was stepping into the same exact hornets' nest that exists at Daily Kos. Correct that, he probably had an inkling, as MajorFlaw {Michael Fingerit} had admitted to being a DU moderator in the UGOG files.
I wish I had gotten to known Dave a lot earlier than I did. Perhaps myself and others could have shown him support which perhaps could have lessened the strain he must have been going through. No one likes to be labelled as obsessed or as a kooky conspiracy theorist. No one likes to have their words and works twisted around. No one likes to get into rigged debates where the other side is full of cheaters.
Here is the link to Dave's journals at DU. He went there with an open mind. Folks are encouraged to read through his threads pertaining to Daily Kos and see how inorganic and seemingly scripted the herd attacks went after him. There was no interacting with his evidence. There was no fairness. The other side were on forum steroids, while Dave was being his good old, innocent self. How was he to know that the same exact fascism taking place at DKos goes on at DU?
Here are the nuts and bolts which prove a direct connection between the fake progressives in control of DKos having the same such control at DU.
To repeat, Michael Fingerit never expected to be outed for being MajorFlaw. Dave simply took things he revealed about himself at the UGOG domain and did research in real life. Fingerit admitted to a case he worked on. With that info, Dave solved his real name. While Jack's Smirking Revenge of the Free Speech Zone blog would like us to believe that Fingerit and others are regular people not deserving of having their true identities revealed, nothing could be further from the truth. What political consultant would be spending such an inordinate amount of time on the net perverting freedom of speech and association at major "progressive" blogs, if such activities were simply a hobby? There is no way, in my humble opinion, that the UGOG/KosKops were regular people. They appear to be in all likelihood paid to post and corrupt democratic processes on the internet.
Fingerit never imagined himself being outed. This explains why he blabbed so much. It is one thing for an anonymous username to be discredited. But if he'd known that his internet activities could be proven to be composed of astroturf, no way would he have given anyone the tools to determine his true identity.
MajorFlaw made a big mistake in not making his UGOG website inaccessible to the public. He made a big mistake in antagonising thoughtful individuals who would sleuth their way to figuring out his true internet motives. From the quote above, it can be now be seen that he outright lied.
There is zero proof that he was ever banned from Democratic Underground, nor that the webmaster Skinner ever posted anything about him. That doesn't mean everything he wrote were lies and misdirection. That is the key to understanding disinformation. Not all of it will be untruthful. He certainly was a powerful influence at DU. He still well very may be. The reason why he didn't provide links to his alleged banning one month before an election integrity activist named TIA was shown the door is because it never happened that way. Fingerit wanted folks at DKos to believe he was a big player at DU. I do believe he was being honest when he said he had the influence to prevent people from being banned. That implies that he had the power to have adversaries banned regardless of any rules being broken. Here is the proof that he lied about his banishment from DU one month before TIA was.
Here is the proof that MajorFlaw was a DU moderator in April, 2005, well after the time TIA had been shown the door. While TIA posts have henceforth been allowed through his friends, the bottom line is that TruthIsAll was never reinstated by DU.
I had been successful at DU as Prepostericity in exposing the true nature of Speedway Bomber Brett Kimberlin and the lies Larisa Alexandrovna had told about him being an exonerated, ex-political prisoner. I also was successful in pointing out the truth about the Michael Connell being threatened by Karl Rove hoax. That has been covered at my humble forum/blog in the astroturfing section.
When I was attacked by the UGOG/KosKops at DKos for posting such factual information that had been censored at DU, I had trouble understanding why MajorFlaw and his astroturfing network would go out of their way to support prolific conspiracy theorists. DKos is known for having established rules against such topics. Folks have probably seen it written there time and time again, that extraordinary claims demand extraordinary evidence. So why would MajorFlaw be supporting hoaxsters?
We now have the answer. MajorFlaw {Fingerit} can now be directly linked to fake, election integrity activists.
It has been brought to my attention that erstwhile DUer, MajorFlaw, was very helpful in the preparation of the "DRE Reliability..." paper, for which he deserves our full appreciation.
I now notice that an image from that thread is no longer available. Could Michael Fingerit have been photographed? I may have a copy of that somewhere. Perhaps I can try to track it down. Probably doesn't matter. But if it did include a photo of him, this shows that this insidious individual is fearful of being exposed. How else to explain the inorganic ganging up on Dave on his threads at DU?
The paper put forth that Wilms said Fingerit helped draft was produced by VoteTrustUSA. That was an EI offshoot of the Verified Voting Foundation established by Andy Stephenson. Alexandrovna was close to Andy. John Gideon, the BradBlog's #1 blogger after Brad, also worked for that group. We now know that Brad Friedman is the frontman for confidence man Brett Kimberlin and his Velvet Revolution. We now know that the Clint Curtis and Spoonamore stories have zero credibility. We also know that a wealthy New Ager heiress named Lori Grace has provided funds to Velvet Revolution.
The bad guys are afraid of all these connections being made. I am not saying that Brad Friedman or even Larisa and Brett are paid disinformation. MajorFlaw, on the other hand, based on the sophisticated nature of the UGOG files, appears to definitely be some form of fifth column.
This is all similar to the proven facts established about Markos Moulitsas Zuniga connecting him to the CIA, Ronald Reagan, attacks on Caroline Kennedy and other Democrats, and with his ties to payola-type schemes. Proving someone is an intel supported troll is very hard to do, if not impossible. At a minimum, however, we can see how successful institutions such as Daily Kos, Velvet Revolution, Black Box Voting, Democratic Underground, and many others have been cash cows. What we don't see any evidence of is that any of them have done any good for true progressives. As for this branch of the "election integrity" movement, the only evidence there is besides the money making capabilities has been of their consistent providing of convolution and strawmen hoaxes, which have served to make election fraud appear to be a non-factor or consisting of too many strawmen to be considered as probable.
I believe the 2000 and 2004 elections were stolen by George Bush Jr.. I also believe that election integrity topics which have deserved greater attention have had to take a back seat to outrageous and easily debunked conspiracy theories. This crowd has provided a lot of convolution and not much election integrity ideas. Whether the objectives have been to raise funds through good-hearted yet gullible wealthy donors or to promote strawmen disinfo or both is besides the point. Whether someone is willing disinfo, a confidence man, or a useful idiot, he or she is contributing to the perversion of democratic processes on the internet. And such activities have had bad consequences in real life.
Where would it be most easiest for modern day cointelpro to operate than on the internet? How has what Fingerit and Markos Zuniga done on the internet been anything other than the perverting of high ideals of freedom of speech and association among true peaceniks and progressives?
This guy is the personification of the word hypocrite.
At the DailyKos, he is MBNYC. He is also a leading contributor to a blog called Daily Gotham. My plan is to keep this website short and sweet. That can be easier said than done. I realise a lot of the entries are cross-posted information and nothing new under the sun. I simply want the whole world to be more likely to be aware of the true colours of folks like Michael Bouldin. Thus, if they google this guy, with a saturated internet, newbies and fence-sitters will be more likely to be able to find out the truth.
Repetition can be good. As long as it is interesting. No one likes spam. But no one with integrity ever rests until injustices are corrected. Here's an example. Markos Moulitsas Zuniga of the Daily Kos let slip out a few years back that he is a big fan of the CIA. Yet, how many folks realise he is a rightwinger? How many realise there are an incredible amount of questions concerning his morals or lack of such? This is why kudos go out to Francis Holland. Check out his blog on CIAKos. Run through the extensive links. It is not kooky tinfoil to wonder if the Daily Kos is an intel-operated domain. At a minimum, it can be proven to be a rightwing institution.
Now let's take a quick peek at the duplicitous nature of Michael Bouldin.
Or look at Bill O'Reilly in his now famous meltdown from when he worked for Inside Edition, a tabloid magazine. Especially take note how he went from raving lunatic to smiling fraud in the matter of a second. That is being two-faced.
Michael Bouldin is a member of the UGOGs. Check out that website. Increase the view size for easier reading. Many folks wish for the Kos Kop thingie to be viewed as being a matter of some insignificant blog war among anonymous usernames. No way, Jose. At least not in my humble opinion after reading through the whole thing. It was simply too sophisticated. There were simply too many connections between the UGOGs and the top DKos administrators.
There is a reason why true progressives and peaceniks have been driven off of Daily Kos. It is because Markos Moulitsas Zuniga is part of a controlled opposition which serves the purposes of a vast rightwing conspiracy. On one side of the coin are Bill O'Reilly and Sean Hannity types. On the other are fakes progressives such as Zuniga and Bouldin.
Dave Weintraub was able to figure out the real names of the top two UGOGs. One is Michael J. Fingerit {MajorFlaw} and the other is Lloyd Lachow {Condoleaser/bottles}. Fingerit can now be tied in with election integrity fakes such as Larisa Alexandrovna and Brett Kimberlin. Lachow lost a license in Colorado for being a sexual predator. A few weeks ago, one of my latest DKos zombies noticed Condoleaser was mentioned. I posted that folks should google that name. The UGOGs went to work and had that post deleted. Because this is the top result.
Posted by WhoIsCondo:
Dailykos kop. Lost his license in Colorado for sexually assaulting a patient. Moved to Maryland to escape shame.
Who is condoleaser? AKA 'voila', 'bottles'
Here was when aspiring political consultant Michael Bouldin admitted to being a full-fledged member of the UGOGs. A poster named Alec82 showed up to confront the fake progressives running the fascist enterprise doing the 'dirty work' for Daily Kos administrators such as Barbara Morrill and Markos Moulitsas Zuniga.
Fingerit wasn't just manipulating democratic processes at Daily Kos. He also admitted to doing the same thing at Democratic Underground. The key to understanding the unfair attacks on Dave Weintraub is to realise that Dave was not afraid to transcend the ambiguous nature of anonymous usernames. He figured out who these people are in 'real life'. Lots of folks want this type of proven conspiracy to be seen as the result of some dorky hobby. I believe that Markos Moulitsas Zuniga and Fingerit are part of a fifth column infiltration of progressive politics on the internet. Peeder, the person who did the tech work for DailyKos, has written on a few occasions that the business model of DailyKos has been set up for failure. The Alexa stats show this to be true, as DailyKos has lost approximately 65% in viewership over the last three months.
The DailyKos has had an elaborate scheme by which pseudo-meta wars have been pushed in a cynical objective to hike up view hits. But when so many, in the tens of thousands if not more, have been alienated and driven off of the site, it will be only a matter of time before the advertisers catch up to how DailyKos is no longer a major domain.
In short, the way Daily Kos has operated over the years has ensured that the place would eventually hit this nosedive. Now this begs the question. Is DailyKos being funded by outside sources? How did the DailyKos rise out of nowhere to become one of the big players, if not the #1 domain, for 'progressive' politics? Based on Zuniga's lies about being a progressive, as spelled out by Holland and many others, from false claims of being an immigrant to hollow explanations of how he pulled the Hitchens/Huffington 180 from adoring Ronald Reagan and George Bush, how do we know that Zuniga has not been working for black operations the whole time? If Markos believes that the CIA is such a great organisation, how can he call himself a progressive? How can Bill O'Reilly and others claim him as one? Why are peaceniks and free thinkers unable to post at the major domains?
Where I differ with Holland's conclusion is that I believe Markos Moulitsas Zuniga was transferred into an FBI or NSA type division. It is illegal for the CIA to perform psychological operations on U.S. citizenry. Why would the CIA risk such illegalities when Moulitsas could have simply been transferred to an institution where it is not illegal to do such things?
