Those Foul-Mouthed Liberal Bloggers

I can’t imagine what’s so wrong in the world today why us intemperate liberals would use some naughty language.

The grownups in charge. Sigh.

    Does this guy have nothing better to do? I often curse on my blog, and I make no apologies for it. I also make valid points about cruel bullshit being perpetrated in our name.

    Liberal bloggers out curse conservative bloggers 18 to 1 because we have a lot more to be pissed about, and we’re paying attention.

    as i point out on skippy, while it was flattering to be labeled as one of the 18 biggest liberal blogs, there’s no traffic ranking in blogtopia and yes, i coined that phrase, that puts my blog anywhere above 500 in ranking.

    even worse, i personally couldn’t believe skippy had 419 occurrences of swear words (because i have a pretty stringent approach to using swear words only for emphatic points or jokes, and usually substitute asterisks for vowels).

    so i tried to reproduce his results, by using the same method he outlined in his piece.
    my google search resuled in a mere 137 instances, less than 1/3 of what ishmael insists skippy had.

    i also point out that he conveniently didn’t count protein wisdom written by jeff “slap your face with my cock” goldstein on the conservative side.

    i would suggest that instead of defending the left’s usage of swear words, we start attack the right’s penchant for making shit up.

    update: using the same method, my google search for little green footballs came up with twice as many swear words as ishmael did.

    so, let’s review: under-reporting a conservative blog by half, and over-reporting my liberal blog by 300%. do we see a pattern here?

    Lies, Damn Lies, and Potty Mouth Rightwingnuts. Just for shits and grins I gathered the usage at LGF from the comments, which Call’em Ishmael chose to ignore.

    The result:

    Now, let’s compare the LGF results, 123208, to that of Daily Kos, 146000. That’s pretty close, however DKos is more popular than LGF, but how much popular?
    …
    Let’s be generous and assume that everyone that visits Daily Kos that posts comments is looking at diaries only. So, Daily Kos has 469220 visits a day to LGF’s 139603. Why, it appears that Daily Kos has nearly three and half times the number of visitors as LGF, but LGF has approximately the same number of usages of the seven dirty words.

    Obviously, the Potty Mouth Rightwingnuts are over three times more likely to use profanity than the members of the Leftosphere.
