The Other McCain

"One should either write ruthlessly what one believes to be the truth, or else shut up." — Arthur Koestler

Selling Out Early To Avoid The Rush

— by Wombat-socho Ripped from the pages of this morning’s Memeorandum, we have this piece of half-witted blogging by Professor Bainbridge, in which he masks a none-too-clever slam at Sarah Palin and Mark Levin with a reference to an entirely too long and (toward the end) insanely boring alternate history series by Harry Turtledove. Look, […]

Glenn Greenwald Is a Ridiculous Joke (And Alas, the Internet Never Forgets)

“DomMascHry31”? Really? I always figured @ggreenwald as more the "SmoothLooseBottom" type … http://t.co/lZ1zf5SOs9 #tcot — Robert Stacy McCain (@rsmccain) June 27, 2013 Ali Akbar called and I had to tell him about the infamous — indeed, epic — nay, world-historic — exposure of Glenn Greenwald’s sockpuppetry back in 2006. Many people currently active in conservative […]

Speaking of Kooks …

Glory days: Barrett Brown interviewed by Michael Isikoff, 2011 “A self-described anarchist, [Barrett] Brown claims he’s policing wrongdoing, at least as Anonymous describes it. . . . “[Brown said:] ‘When we break laws, we do so in service of civil disobedience.’” — NBC Nightly News, March 8, 2011 Dan Collins seems envious of my success […]

‘It’s Tough to Be a Man, Baby!’

The title line from the unfortunately forgotten 1983 comedy D.C. Cab came to mind today when I encountered yet another reaction to the controversial new bestseller by Dr. Helen Smith, Men on Strike: Why Men are Boycotting Marriage, Fatherhood, and the American Dream–and Why it Matters. It seems that everyone has an opinion on this […]

Americans – including myself, my […]

In Praise of Conor Friedersdorf

— by Wombat-socho Everyone who’s raised a child, or housebroken a puppy, knows the importance of rewards and punishments.* So it is with young pundits who show the occasional flashes of conservative or libertarian leanings: we must fisk them, or at the very least point and laugh, when they write something stupid for public consumption, […]

Has Bill Schmalfeldt Forgotten?

Aaron Walker points out something about Bill Schmalfeldt’s harassment that had escaped my notice: When Schmalfeldt first began cyberstalking Walker, on June 3, 2012, it was only four days after Brett Kimberlin had gotten Walker arrested at a Maryland court hearing. The judge at that Maryland hearing had ordered Walker not to write anything about […]

A Few Words About The FMJRA

— by Wombat-socho People get confused and angry about how the FMJRA works now and again, so I thought I’d take a couple minutes here and explain how I do this, for the benefit of people who haven’t figured it out on their own and/or want to know more so they can get whatever ego […]
