I’m getting a little sick of Mark Towner. A little friendly “place putting” for Mark should have been a simple enjoyable distraction, but, now he’s got his friends spamming my email addresses demanding that I apologize to him, make nice, kill myself, move back to Mongolia (wtf? Mongolia?) and that I shouldn’t call Mark a “Douche Bag.”
I got a letter from a lady on one of my email addresses and, bless her, I think she may be right. Maybe I shouldn’t call Mark a “Douche Bag” when “simpering f**kwit seems to fit a little better. I don’t know, but, here’s the letter:

you should not call people names when you don’t even know them. I know Mark Towner and his wife well and they are wonderful people! Mark is not [sic] ignorant douche bag.
My calm and resoned reply:
First of all, I know Mark. He knows it. We’re not friends, but I know him and have for the last couple of years.
Second, Mark wants our government to commit mass murder with nuclear weapons against hundreds of thousands of people because he, and his political theocrat buddies, don’t have enough of a clue (or the mental capacity) to look up diplomacy in the dictionary.
Douche Bag seems a little light, when you consider the cost in human lives that Mark likes to chat extol with all those exclamation points. It’s scary, pathetic and sad, lady.
Besides, Mark knows, deep inside, that if he’s going to play on the internet like that, he’s going to piss people off from time to time. He’s got no problem knocking me on the head when he thinks I’m out of line (you know, fair play for the poor, protecting the working class, wishing we had Habeas Corpus back [look it up], not selling out Social Security to Wall Street Brokers, and, most importantly, not fighting a war with platitudes, bullshit, over 3,500 American lives and more than 150,000 Iraqi lives and lies) so, he shouldn’t mind it when people get fed up with him.
But maybe you have a point. Maybe, when Mark is screaming about how we ought to commit mass murder on innocent civilians, I should be a little more polite. Or maybe I could stick my foot in a tree chipper, cause, it’d feel about the same.
Now, one last quick thing to the lady who wrote me this:
Have you noticed how I didn’t post your email address, phone number and all your MySpace data here on my blog in an effort to target you for abuse from all we evil Liberals? You want to know why?
1. We don’t do stuff like that. Never punch first, always punch last (yeah, I know liberals don’t talk like that, but, only Mark Towner and Jeff Heartly think I’m a liberal. Hell, Jim Matheson doesn’t even think I’m a liberal)
2. It’s not polite.
3. I am not a douche bag, and only a douche bag would do that.
Isn’t it Mister Doctor Douche Bag, Jeff?
I am completely shocked at the childishness of Towner’s reaction to being called to task on his “Nuke Em” post, and the subsequent reaction of opinions.
The man is obviously not cut out for the political arena, with such a thin skin and childish demeanor.
Ironically, when we first posted about his Iran piece (and I do mean “piece”) at The Sidtrack, I gave him the respect of a “peer.” I see now we were, from the start, dealing with a very immature “man” with a big mouth, but a very thin skin.
Stay resolved, JM, the world has a way of weeding out the weak. “Douche Bag Natural Selection” we can call it.
Update on a small victory here. Mark has deleted the irresponsible “Nuke Em” post from his blog.
Chalk one up for the Lefties of Utah, huh? It’s just one tiny battle, but it’s a nice reminder we can change the political debate even a little in this, the redest of red states.
What a dork! Should we put his e-mail on every single opt-in e-mails we can find.
nah, Not Mark Towner only a Douche Bag would do that.
