Hart Williams Blog Techniques Scale

I predict that within a year, Hart Williams will be one of the left's leading bloggers.

You read it here first. Laugh along with us as we watch Hart become a famous lefty blogger. You'll learn about Hart, and you'll get a marvelous view of what makes the nutroots tick--it's own inimitable mixture of narcissism and rage.

On any day that Hart Williams has been activated by the mysterious forces that excite him, you'll see one or more of these exercises in lefty blogging magnificence:

1. Praise of his own wonders.

2. One or more targets of his rage and disdain.

3. Random drive-by smears.

4. Sycophantic praise of bloggers and journalists you may have actually heard of.

5. The occasional expression of bloodlust.

6. Threats to quit blogging if he doesn't get paid.

8. Random threats to quit.

9. Episodes of actually quitting.

10. Criticism of the media and lefty bloggers you've heard of because they don't pay more attention to him.

11. Self-referential praise, frequently including allusions to the notion that he has been a writer and journalist for nigh unto 30 years.

I'm sure I've missed some.

Hart: So many people to hate, so little time

Hart Williams valiantly wages a war of words against the many targets who wander within range of his excitable radar screen.

Although Hart has many targets, the number of methods he uses to smear them is limited.

On any given day, to understand what Hart is on about you have to look at three elements: that day's target(s), which smear techniques he pulled out of the cupboard to apply to that day's target(s), and which of the ever-growing number of blogs he posted or cross-posted or cross-cross-cross-cross posted the smears on.

It's all about counting. How many targets? How many words? How many smear techniques and Hart-isms? How many blogs?

We keep track so you don't have to.

Join us as we count, and count on, Hart.
