Rush Limbaughtomy, taking issue with my post on his traffic, tells me that I should get my facts straight with this (in the comments):
Say Uncle should get his facts straight since any reasonable research would show that Hoggs Online and the Fox fair and balance parodies are not sitemetered with the others
However, if you go to the Google Cache file for HoggsOnline, there is clearly a sitemeter tag at the bottom. And the Google Cache for Blur and Tarnish on August 17 does as well. Those sitemeter links are the same account as the other websites, despite Rush Limbaughtomy’s claim.
It seems I caught Rush Limbaughtomy fibbing.
Update: AlphaPatriot comments below that:
BTW, perusing the ecosystem shows Barry at a highly respectable #89 (at least it was when the system went down). Looking at how he got that high shows 31 links from hoggsonline, 26 from savagecruelbigot, 25 from treasononline, and 17 from bumsrush (none from foxnewsblurandtarnish), accounting for 42% of his inbound links. While 137 inbound links is still highly successful (and admittedly more than I aspire to), it would still knock him down from Playful Primate to smack-dab in the middle of Large Mammel. If, as you say, Barry runs all of these blogs (where does he find the time?), he is inflating his own stats.

lol I can just see him furiously typing away after reading your post yesterday trying his damndest to register new sitemeter accounts and plug in the new code lol…I guess he forgot about that whole “google/cache” thing didnt he.

Besides, what’s up with each of his pages being named after someone famous in order to draw readers a la Al Franken? Misappropriating Bill Hobbs name due to an assumed slight is a little sad. What’s wrong with using your own name or establishing an online idenity and sticking with it? Seems like the left often rides Rush’s coattails!

Careful – please don’t make this a left/right issue.
This is one guy with delusions of his own grandeur who enjoys puffing up his stats at the expense of others.
He just happens to be a lefty blogger, but don’t make it seem to have something to do with politics…
