Any of the government paid posters missing today?

He's a heck of a photographer though!

I like ZippyJuan.

He can disagree without calling names or flinging insults and his remarks are usually intelligent. And, on occasion, I agree with him.

It is good to have intelligent dialog with someone presenting a different side- this always encourages growth on both sides.

Yes, he's a very well-trained troll.

Ya he's gotta be the most polite government agent I've ever run across.

Or he purposely is not posting today to see what kind of reaction he will get

I don't know.. but I would think 'essential services' will not be cut.

On unrelated note, Drudge Report updates since yesterday have sharply slowed down, for hours last night there was no update while whole media frenzy had minute by minute updates. Probably just coincidence.
Also, today just Obama,Mccain, Netanyahu,Woody Allen news there on first of "shtdown"- dynamo Cruz suddenly has zero coverage there.

They furloughed the trolls too. However all the furloughed liberals are taking up the slack.

 

[Christian Liberty]

CaptLouAlbano and TaftFan have predictably not been seen

Serious question: what's your beef with Drudge?

You take a dig at them at any opportunity even when it's not relevant.

I don't like or dislike Drudge and barely use it - but curious why you dislike them.

Both of them have posted today.

He is sometimes better than MSM , sometimes he is just as bad or worse when it comes to pushing pro Iraq/Iran blowback headlines.

BTW, do you have any beef with MSM, Obama, neocons or ok with their plots?

But why the constant digs on Drudge specifically? I don't even know what this means:

What does that mean? What are you alluding to?

I don't love their plots but I'm ok with them.

I thought they were trying to stop cheap Mexican labor now.

Dang. I was hoping this^ would get me more attention/forum uproar. Only got 2 +rep. I haz teh sad. /attention whore

 

[DGambler]

Haven't seen ZJ post today

 

[heavenlyboy34]

Why is ZJ considered a troll? He tends to be a contrarian/cynic, but that's not trolling IMO.

 

[jllundqu]

That's funny...

What's the consensus?

Keep in mind that many "Essential" trolls may still be present...

 

[Cowlesy]

Haven't seen ZJ post today

hasn't been active since 9/30/13 at 4am

I didn't say he was a troll or a shill specifically.... I was just pointing out, rightly so, that he hasn't posted since 9/30. If you take a look at his profile and posting history, he hardly ever misses a day

Two of the best posters on this site, by far.

 

[Aratus]

TaftFan just did a perceptive posting in the thread about Justin Amash deciding to avoid a senate race.
Personally i feel this talk about paid trolls exaggerates the phenomenon and plays into a high paranoia.
i think the actual paid trolls burn out too quick and often mis~step badly in unobvious not clever ways.

How is he a contrarian when all he does is drudge up establishment rhetoric?
