Let’s Debate Fourth Amendment Rights, and Also Send Snowden to Leavenworth
Glenn Greenwald’s new man-crush, Edward Snowden theothermccain.com/2013/06/10/hol… I am more afraid of the federal Department of Education than I am of the #NSA. Seriously. @angelatc @justinamash — Robert Stacy McCain (@rsmccain) June 10, 2013 Following the Edward Snowden revelations, I find myself accused of statism, warmongering and worse. It seems some of my libertarian friends […]
Holy Freaking Crap! How Did NSA Leaker Edward Snowden Get Security Clearance?
My son enlisted in Army under same 18X program as #Snowden. Whiskey Tango Foxtrot! viralread.com/2013/06/10/her… — Robert Stacy McCain (@rsmccain) June 10, 2013 The phrase “whistleblower” would imply the disclosure of wrongdoing and — sorry, Senator Paul — I don’t see any crime at NSA, beyond the negligence that put a high-school dropout in a […]
You’re Gonna Need a Bigger Movement
Why did the “Free Kate” movement flourish so rapidly after May 17? Some people have attributed this to the gay-rights angle in the case — Kaitlyn Ashley Hunt, 18, has admitted having sex with a 14-year-old female — and the claim of “homophobia” stirred sympathy for someone who admits committing a felony under Florida law.

Years ago, someone […]

Young stars circa 1987: Corey Haim (left) and Corey Feldman Apropos of recent controversies, Pete Da Tech Guy quotes a 2011 interview with former child actor Corey Feldman: “I can tell you that the No. 1 problem in Hollywood was and is and always will be pedophilia. That’s the biggest problem for children in this […]
She Blinded Me With Pseudo-Science
“Pretty Baby has been banned outright in the Canadian provinces of Ontario and Saskatchewan. No less a moral arbiter than Rona Barrett solemnly advised her TV audience that the movie is ‘child pornography.’ Others have attacked its French director . . . as a combination of Humbert Humbert and Roman Polanski.” — Kristin McMurran, People […]
