The Big Bad ILDemNet

October 30, 2006 By: ArchPundit Category: Uncategorized

What the hell are the editors at the Tribune doing?

Dennis Byrne is a) lying or b) so incompetent he should have someone ensuring his bodily functions are properly cleaned up after or c) both. I think everyone can guess which I think is true.
Seriously, how dumb do you have to be to claim the site was cleansed when this is what you get on a basic google search

Trying to paint Leo as some part of a dark conspiracy is hysterically funny, but not very serious. Further, Leo disputes that any e-mail was sent at all. At a minimum the Trib needs to be producing the e-mail Byrne claims to have sent.

As another hint to the editors at the Trib–since Byrne is quite clearly too stupid to get this point–the calendar function is a new fangled web thingamajib that actually, gets this, updates as time passes! It’s like magic! Even more magic if you hit the little button << that, ummmm...is the way to find all of the previous entries.

BTW, the pick-up location is prominently displayed on two different calendar entries on the front calendar page right now.

So essentially, a networking tool for activists on-line and off-line is a deep dark conspiracy in Byrne's mind. The "net" is literally a network and not really an organization. It started out of the Yahoo! groups for Kerry and developed into a greater site since then. It's main function is for a bunch of like minded people to coordinate where to meet and where to go and provide a calendar function for Democratic activists throughout the state.

Perhaps Byrne can devote his next column to his disgust that Jack Roeser funds Peraica given Roeser lives in Kane County.

To submit a letter to the editor at the Chicago Tribune, send e-mail at ctc-TribLetter@Tribune.com or fax to 312-222-2598 or write to Voice of the People, Chicago Tribune, 435 N. Michigan Ave., Chicago, IL 60611.

    Dennis Byrne is the same paranoid that entertained us with columns about the media conspiracy against the Catholic Church.

    He does love conspiracies,it seems, much more than facts.

    But then he never was much more than a repubican hatchetman.

    Just because this dim-wit couldn’t find the information doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist! By the sound of it, he wasn’t looking too hard.

    Also, the first I ever heard of the guy was literally reading the article online. No email from him, nothing.

    What I’m wondering is how the Chicago Tribune could let this one slip by. It’s a complete embarrassment! A half-dozen corrections/retractions are in order at the very least.

    Jim,

    Hathetmen everywhere are offended by your comment associating Byrne with them. He can’t even pull off partisan hack, let alone hatchetman status.
