Ignorant Asswipe Dana Loesch smears Congressman Jan Schakowsky for telling the truth about PPACA

Professional douchebag Dana Loesch is at again. She slams Democratic Congresswoman Jan Schakowsky for telling the truth about the state of women's health issues prior to Obamacare. I also believe that Loesch is basically trying to provide cover for ultra far-right extremist kook Susanne Atanus.

Congresswoman Schakowsky's truth-telling tweet that enraged the right:




Her lies attacking Schakowsky:

















It's you, Dana, that's disgracing your gender!



The malicious liar is you, Mrs. Loesch!









Who's exploiting women now? Certainly not Ms. Schakowsky, Sandra Fluke, or other Democrats.

Dana Loesch falsely accuses IL-12 Democratic Candidate Bill Enyart of "shoving a Plummer supporter on purpose"

Teabagging liar Dana Loesch jumped on the anti-Enyart smear that "Republican judge got [intentionally] shoved by Bill Enyart." The Republican judge in question was Laninya Cason, a former Democrat. Enyart is the Democratic candidate (he replaced the original candidate Brad Harriman) to replace current Congressman Jerry Costello (D). Plummer is the GOP nominee, and Paula Bradshaw is the Green Party candidate.




The facts from BND:


 — Associate Judge Laninya Cason, a Republican candidate for circuit judge, on Saturday gave a videotaped statement to the O'Fallon Police Department alleging that congressional candidate William Enyart, a Democrat, pushed her aside as she tried to hand out one of her campaign flyers at a parade. 
Enyart's campaign denied the allegation, saying he accidentally bumped into Cason.
Cason, a former Democrat who was passed over by her former party for its nomination as the circuit judge candidate, said she would sign a statement asking that Enyart, a retired two-star general in the Illinois National Guard, be charged with battery, a misdemeanor. The alleged incident occurred during the O'Fallon High School homecoming parade.  
"On a crowded parade route, people bump into each other all the time. It's a low-key, fun event for voters to meet candidates at all levels," said Enyart campaign manager Jason Bresler. "Bill accidentally bumped into a Plummer supporter and immediately apologized, but somehow, between laughing, joking and now, this has become political," Bresler said. 
"This is the type of ugly politics that people in southern Illinois are sick of, where something as simple as a parade could become grounds for political gamesmanship."
Annie Dauber, a 16-year-old Belleville West High School junior, who said she was passing out political stickers at the parade, said she saw the incident but thought Enyart and Cason "just bumped into each other." Dauber, whose name and telephone number were supplied to the BND by the Enyart campaign, said she couldn't recall whether both were walking, or whether Enyart came up behind Cason.
Aaron Camp's Blue Downstate Blog::

Enyart’s Republican opponent is Jason Plummer, the son of a multi-millionare lumber magnate who is spending part of his father’s fortune in an attempt to buy himself a seat in Congress, and, in 2010, was narrowly defeated in the Lieutenant Gubernatorial race by Sheila Simon. Cason, who is a Plummer supporter, probably tried to set Enyart up by alleging battery simply for accidentally bumping into her. This kind of dirty politics has become all too commonplace in Downstate Illinois. Annie Dauber, an eyewitness to the incident, thought that Enyart and Cason “just bumped into each other”, and that’s more than likely the most credible eyewitness account of the incident that we’re going to get.




I'm more than likely to be inclined to believe that it was accidental, NOT "deliberate" like what Loesch and Cason want to frame it as such.

If you wanna infuriate Conservatives and Jason Plummer some more, Donate to Enyart.

Dana Loesch visits Chicago, still baselessly claims the "Democrats have a war on [conservative] women"

Yesterday in Chicago, Illinois, CNN "Contributor", Big Journalism EIC, and KFTK radio host Dana Loesch continued her trashing of the Democrats and the Occupy Movement.

Key Points


  • "Wisconsin-- I said this in my speech-- is the birthplace of the new American Revolution. But Chicago is the birthplace of the American conservative movement-- the Tea Party." (approx. 0:30)
  • Loesch: "10+ years ago, I was a Democrat. I was a registered Democrat. I was a young college women. It was marketed to me as the party of 'pro-women,' pro-equality', or 'pro-whatever.' Then I quickly realized that was not the case." (approx. 1:00)
  • Loesch falsely declared that the ""Democrats instigated the 'war on women.'" No, Dana, it's YOU and YOUR GOP that did that, moron! (approx. 1:30)
  • Loesch baselessly accuses the "DNC, Debbie Wasserman Schultz, and moveon.org of using it as a 'fundraising tool' to benefit the Democratic Party." (approx. 2:11)
  • Loesch: "firearms level the playing field." (approx. 3:30)
  • She said that the "Liberal/Progressive/Democrat Feminist Movement" has come full circle. (approx. 4:05)
  • She falsely claimed that the "Democratic Party is male-dominated and patriarchal." Wrong party, ma'am! (approx. 4:15)
  • She misleadingly states the "progressives and Occupy support raping of women." (approx. 4:30)
  • She took a cue from the now-deceased Andrew Breitbart: "Stop raping people! Behave yourselves!" (approx. 4:40)
  • Loesch: "The Democrat Party has robbed me of my choice." (approx. 5:05)
  • She then declared that "the policies of my former party prevents me from staying at home." (approx. 5:14)
  • She baselessly said that "her husband can't create more jobs because of the Democrats' policies and want to confiscate his resources for doing so." (approx. 5:18) She's an idiot!
  • She took a shot at Georgetown University law student Sandra Fluke for supporting access to birth control and contraception. (approx. 6:01)
  • Loesch: "I've been on 1 vacation in ten years. How many does the guy in the White House [Obama] take?" I have some news for you, Dana: Bush 43 took more vacations than Obama. (approx. 7:05)
  • Loesch: "The Democrat Party is the party of pro-choice. It's the party of no choice." Wrong party, lady! (approx. 7:30)
  • Loesch: "We are here to take our country back [from the Democrats], starting in June in Wisconsin." (approx. 8:50)






Eric W. Dolan at The Raw Story calls out Loesch's deliberate falsehoods:

CNN contributor and blogger Dana Loesch said Monday at the Tea Party Tax Day rally in Chicago that women “get raped” for supporting liberals and progressives like the “Occupy Wall Street” movement. 
“What did women receive for supporting the left?” she asked the crowd. “You’ve seen it here with your Occupy movement, haven’t you? They get raped.” 
“This man on my shirt had a message that I think needs to be reiterated since it keeps happening,” Loesch said, wearing a shirt picturing the late Andrew Breitbart. “Stop raping people! Behave yourselves!” 
When asked about the “Occupy Wall Street” protests after her speech by independent YouTube reporter John Sheehan, Loesch said she was “fascinated” by the movement, but did not understand its purpose. After being questioned about crime at the “Occupy” protests, she said that all she knew was that the movement was about “vandalism and rape.”



Loesch attacks Dolan on Twitter for telling the truth about her:










ABL (Angry Black Lady) at The Raw Story also tears her a new one for lying about the OWS Movement:

The report to which conservatives gleefully point as proof that Occupy Wall Street condoned or encouraged or failed to address the rape of its members has been debunked over and over again. It is simply not true. Members of the Occupy Wall Street movement stated that neither the victim nor the rapist were Occupiers. They were homeless people who set up a tent nearby the Occupiers. Dana Loesch, however, has an on-again/off-again relationship with the truth, and what she must know to be the truth won’t stop her from continuing to flog a lie, as if out of fealty to the late Andrew Breitbart. 

Rape is not a partisan issue. Rape is not punishment that is doled out for being a Republican or a Democrat. The very implication is appalling and has no place in political discourse. That Loesch is using rape as a political football — and repeatedly lying about it — demonstrates her utter lack of respect for women, and her willingness to victim-blame. “You were raped? Too bad — you shouldn’t have supported the left.” Is this really the sort of rhetoric that CNN condones and wants to associate itself with?

Dana Loesch at TeaCon 2011: Same old, same old

This Past weekend at TeaCon 2011, held in Chicago suburb Schaumburg, Illinois, KFTK radio host, CNN "Contributor," and Big Journalism's Smear Artist-In-Chief Dana Loesch and her cronies (Andrew Breitbart, Glenn Beck, Steven Crowder, Guy Benson) was at the event telling more right-wing gibberish. Also there was the Deadbeat Dad Congresscritter Joe Walsh (R-IL08.)

Loesch spoke at event, telling the same rehashed lies.



Key Points:
  • Loesch said that she was "VERY Liberal, almost socialist-like" and came from a union family from Southern Missouri. (approx 1:30).
  • When 9/11 hit, Loesch was no longer a Democrat, but a GOP hack, as mentioned in her Big Government blogpost that day.

  • I had identified myself as a liberal my entire life, until this day. I had an early midlife crisis when I was around 19 years-old, when I began to think that I didn’t actually believe in the principles with which I was raised. I was raised by a very big southern Democrat union family. I was indoctrinated by years of pop-culture, educational bias, and family mantra. It was the only way. I did not vote for George W. Bush. I supported Gore. Even as I began to shed the beliefs of a Democrat, one thing remained: I still felt that America had a problem with the “military complex.” The only reason people were hostile to us, I surmised, was because they were intimidated by our military. I thought Bush was representative of this and it was the reason I didn’t support him.

    That belief was blown to hell on 9/11.

    “Thank God George Bush is president,” I blurted out in the middle of a furious sob. My husband, who was born wearing a Reagan shirt, looked at me with wide-eyed wonderment.

  • She claimed that she had to "sit with the 3-4 years olds at the Thanksgiving table for being a Republican." (approx. 2:29).
  • She stated that the St. Louis Tea Party movement started back in February 2009, when The Dana Show was just a Sunday-only show. (approx. 2:54).
  • She repeated the "I am two steps above an anarchist" claim and is an advocate of Article I, Section 8 Conservatism. (approx 3:11).
  • She repeated that this is the "biggest movement since the 1960's Hippies." Nope, Occupy Wall Street and anti-war demonstrations are bigger than the astroturfed Teabagger movement. (approx. 3:47)
  • She mentioned her WPITW win. (approx. 5:00)
  • She falsely claimed that "nobody watches Current TV." In fact, its ratings have increased since Countdown aired back in June, and it's adding The Young Turks with Cenk Uygur to the lineup.
  • She stated that "our children and grandchildren are going to be subjected to a lower standard of living due to overregulations and socialism." WRONG, it's due to the GOP's policies. (approx. 7:39).
  • She baselessly compared the Democratic Party to "a Socialist party." She also suggested that the "Congressional Progressive Caucus has overran the Democrat Party." (approx 10:19).
  • She lied about theAnthony Weiner incident. (approx. 15:40).
  • She falsely claimed that the "PPACA supports taxpayer paying for abortions." (approx. 20:12). She advocated for Violence at that rally.
  • She baselessly stated that Betsey Bruce works for KMOV (CBS 4). No, Bruce works for KTVI (FOX 2), the same station that features the much despised by Conservatives Charles Jaco and the rising star Angie Mock. (approx. 21:19)
  • She misleadingly claims that "the Liberals, Democrats, Unions are the ones that get violent." In fact, it's the Teahadists (and herself) that commit the most violent acts. (approx. 22:21)
  • She stated that "Union Bosses are the scum of the Earth." Typical for this union-hating nimrod to say.(approx. 23:50)
  • She made another phony claim that the "Democrats and Unions are against worker's rights." (approx. 24:17)
  • She lied about SEIU bussing in people, when her cronies do the same thing and no howls from them there.
  • She accused "the left of shutting dissent down." WRONG AGAIN! (approx. 29:18)
  • She said "if you call me a teabagger, does that make you the teabaggee?" Baloney! (approx. 31:31)

We got more evidence of phony claims from her.


The event was home to Andrew Breitbart's violence-laced tirade calling Janeane Garofalo a "Hollywood Sympathy Fuck" and others.

The "Hollywood Sympathy Fuck" rant:
From Andrew Breitbart's September 30 speech at Tea Con 2011:


He also told the Unions, Jimmy Hoffa, and Richard Trumka "fuck you!"




Also, one of the top organizers for TeaCon, Steve Stevlic, was NOT in attendance. Reason: he loves to hang out with hookers.


As maybe the largest-ever gathering of Tea Partiers commences in Illinois this week, congratulations are due to Mr. Steve Stevlic, the activist without whom TeaCon 2011 would be impossible. Stevlic is the head of the Chicago Tea Party, one of the con's primary sponsors. In the words of radio host and National Review columnist Mark Levin, Stevlic's "terrific." According to CBS, he's the "Democrats' nightmare."

But if you're heading to the festivities this weekend and see Stevlic in person, there's one thing you probably shouldn't bring up with the activist and family values man: his arrest for soliciting a prostitute last summer.

Stevlic describes himself as an ordinary guy; a good, decent family man with a wife, two kids, and no pretensions. His humility and ideological fervor have earned him friendly profiles at CTV and the Guardian, and quotes on Fox News and The Hill. At TeaCon, he'll spend the next two days shaking hands, buddying up with Herman Cain, Glenn Beck, Andrew Breitbart and the other assorted big guns flying in for the revelry, and making nice with the hundreds of Tea Partiers who've spent hundreds of dollars to come and be trained in grassroots Tea-Party-foo. It'll be awesome.

When confronted about his behavior yesterday morning, Stevlic told us to direct subsequent questions to his lawyer. He did insist that he'd never tweeted anything about Jackson being a sex machine, which is ridiculous, because, well, see for yourself on the right. (Click the image to expand.)

Oh, well. Stevlic also told us that he'd been convicted of nothing, which is true. According to the Chicago DA, all charges against Stevlic were dropped when Stevlic agreed to participate in a rehab program for johns called "Unhooked," which he did. Stevlic also told us, guilt or innocence aside, that he feels compassion for Jackson, and we're sure he was telling the truth about that one, too. We bet he feels tons of compassion, especially now. It's no fun to have your dirty laundry aired in public. Anyway — Happy TeaCon!


Herman Cain won the straw poll convincingly-- about 77%, but Jon Huntsman and Gary Johnson got blank, and even President Barack Obama got a couple of votes. Michele Bachmann was the closest at nearly 9.5%.
