An English hobbit from The Shiringhamtondovershire, presumably, runs a website called TORY POLITICO about his precious cricket matches and politics and fried Mars bars. Now he’s being threatened by the POLITICO’s parent company’s contracted lawyers!
It is the worst argument ever, although we ain’t lawyers, know? The initial argument is, since we are POLITICO, and TORY POLITICO has one different word in it, PEOPLE MAY GET CONFUSED when they’re trying to find POLITICO and may just magically type in the word TORY before it, during their search of possible URLs. This would lead them to the TORY POLITICO website instead, so pay up biotch.
Poor hobbit! Just reply “Hey Politico get fucked by Dick Cheney s’more” and be done with it.

Politico shall launch a cyber sneak attack, crying ‘Tory! Tory! Tory!’.
TORY POLITICO is a lot more relevant to American Political Discourse than that other site. I don’t even have to visit the site to know that.
Do google bombs still work?
Politico WINS THE INTERNETS! by suing the shit out of everybody, oh and sucking up to Republans. Brilliant!
Nailed the bastard!
See Marx Brothers v. Warner Brothers Studio, with regard to “Night in Casablanca.”
I won’t believe it until the post contains 11 links to various Politico stories.
O.K., so this guy is a Tory, which is the English version of our Republitards. So this is a fight between two assholes. Pass the popcorn.
These marks are only confusingly similary and for competing goods and services if TORY POLITICO is a lying sack of right wing shit, too.
Do people really spell it “biotch”? For me, that would indicate a long “i” sound and be pronounced BYE-awwtch. This may not seem like a big deal, but it is to me. For the night that John Kerry got his ass whomped by GWB, there was a girl at Dr. Dremo’s where I was watching the returns with a handmade t-shirt that said “Bush Biotch” on it. For me, that F-ed up spelling compounded the dumb that she represented.
I would spell it “beeotch” or something.
Word.
I for one am shocked that this Brit blogger stole the Politico’s good name and reputation; it’s not like politico is just a pre-existing word that they chose for their little publication that someone else might also just happen to use; this is sort of like when The Nation sued the Nation of Islam for stealing their original name.
Y KANT TORY POLITICO READ
Meet my new pornsite for conservadroids pretending to be straight: Torrid Politico
Politico is being pretty retarded, methinks.
[re=507764]rmontcal[/re]: It’s actually spelled biotech.
And today Wonkette’s one ally at Politico, Ben Smith, is trying to get Obama hurt, talking about his “lack of religion.”
[re=507764]rmontcal[/re]: “Biotch” confuses the h. out of me (whoopdy-do!) because I think of “biotech,” which seldom has any connection to the story. “Beeotch” works. Kindly see that all uses of the word, everywhere, are spelled correctly, from here to eternity. You’re welcome.
I thought Republicans were against frivolous lawsuits …
… oh, yeah, only when the lawyers doing the suing are Democrats … my bad.
I just registered “Tory Wonkette”. (Will discuss ceasing and disisting with Juli, only.)
[re=507774]Fox News Light[/re]: Wait, wasn’t the pastor at the church that he regularly went to back home used to attack him throughout the election? I suppose the pundits have very short memories.
An actual atheist President would be great, but we haven’t had one (or at least one who didn’t pretend to be religious) since Madison; and it would be impossible for one to get elected.
[re=507764]rmontcal[/re]: I forgot to add to my awesome story that I really, really wanted to dislike-intercourse her.
Honestly, I can see their point. Those stupid fucks that frequent Politico COULD get that confused.
Not to be confused with the Earl Grey Tea Party Politico from Dipswitch upon Twittenham.
I’ve been to The Shiringhamtondovershire. Their cheese is delicious.
[re=507777]bitchincamaro[/re]: Tory Wonkette: Cheerio mates, we do deem that Gordon Brown chap may be a right bender.
[re=507784]madtowngooner[/re]: I thought they were from Dorking.
Let’s start a game and all register domains xxx-politico.com. They could go broke faster just sending us all cease and desist letters. I call nerd-politico.com!
I guess their attornie “Bernie” musta needed some more billable hours. He’s prolly got a deal with some Brit shyster to split the fees.
[re=507793]betterDeadThanRed[/re]: I’ll register xxx-politico.com. We’ve already got the naked Scott Brown photos; maybe Photoshop can help with the rest.
I guess this scuttles my idea for a sex-scandal site at politico-ck.com?
I call spaz-politico.com. ‘Spaz’ is the new retard!
SOMEbody’s gotta go for homo-politico.com, amirite?
[re=507767]snideinplainsight[/re]: *golf clap*
Shouldn’t we also be not-linking to Tory Politico, just because??
I knew a couple girls from the back of the room in sixth grade who were the same plus size. They sometimes went into their restroom to Trade Dress. As near as I could tell, it helped neither of them. But at least neither was sued.
[re=507778]JMP[/re]: obama went to church in chicago?
[re=507757]SkoalRebel[/re]: Right! That’s the way to do it. Like, it all started with Franco. When he was dying (say from 1936) he and his party went fishing on the Ebro or somewhere. They caught fish, as sometimes happens. And one of the party, an unillustrious 2nd lt subaltern, was so proud of his little souvenir, a three-pound mackeral! A team of caribineri followed him home, though. Said, The Generalissimo demands his fish! The mackeral was surrendered, and the subaltern remained unshot.
Lots of history is lost!
I’ll take canhaz-politico.com and LOLpolitico.com These kinds of sites are popular with the yungz.
Interesting that Politico.com’s lawyers are Dow Lohnes. Do you think the New York Stock Exchange are aware of the similarity in name to their stock index?
[re=507791]Cape Clod[/re]: Dorking Tory delights descend?
[re=507766]JMP[/re]: Well, in the old days, folks sued Look because they did it all the time. They laid off Life because they didn’t have one.
Uh, oh looks like it’s time to sue mafia wars too!
Hmmm…their color scheme and design DO seem a little derivative. They would have put themselves in the clear if they had chosen, oh, I don’t know, the color scheme from “
Never Mind the Bollocks, Here’s the Sex Pistols.”
This is EXACTLY the same as what happened in the War of 1812.
[re=507811]magic titty[/re]: No no, we should ALWAYS link Tory Politico when the article is in fact from Politico.
It’s no http://www.chicagotribunal.com.
[re=507766]JMP[/re]: Who dat? On a related note, the University of Kansas is suing a local retailer for selling blue shirts that say “Kansas.” It, apparently, owns everything.
The fuck was it with the mixed bag of fonts in the Scary Legal Letter to Tory Politico? I counted something like six of them. All they were missing was Comic Sans.
[re=507798]Dean Booth[/re]: What do you know about Chuck Klosterman, & when did you know it?
what is the fried mars bars reference? i could google but that is work and i am generally hating everything right now.
[re=508067]ladymacbeth[/re]: Brit delicacy. They eat it on steaming piles of boiled cabbage. Probably topped in cheese sauce and mayo these days, but I haven’t been to London in a few months.
Apparently Politico stole the name from a London bookshop in the first place: http://iaindale.blogspot.com/2010/02/uk-blog-threatened-by-politicocom.html
