The Other McCain

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

Thanks, Dennis Prager

” [I]n 28 years as a talk show host and columnist, I had never heard of Robert Stacy McCain or of Vlaams Belang.”
— Dennis Prager, “An Open Letter to Charles Johnson”

Prager wrote this at David Horowitz’s Front Page Magazine. I’ve written feature profiles about Horowitz’s Islamo-Fascism Awareness Week and the GWU hate-hoax, about the Left’s veneration of Che Guevara, and a column about the Left’s support for murderer Tookie Williams — all of which are available at the Front Page Magazine site.

If Dennis Prager never heard of me, the question is, “Why not?”

Damn, I might as well move to Brussels . . .

    If Dennis Prager never heard of me, the question is, “Why not?”

    Because he is too busy with his multiple divorces and opining about how women ought to act in the bedroom, whilst omitting any connection between the two events.

    Oh, wait, that was a rhetorical question. Whoops.

    You are not making enough impression on people.

    Why not get invited on Prager’s show and explain how CJ set you up as a “white supremacist” after you had the termerity of defending Pam Geller. Because that is really the issue.

    Second the motion that you try to get on Prager’s show. (He’s hosted Charles Johnson before, after all.)

    I dunno: hasn’t Mr.McCain already noted several times that he’s horrid in media interviews (at least I know he’s said that about TV)? Maybe ‘appearing’ on Prager isn’t such a hot idea.

    Try to get on Medved if Prager won’t have you. Medved used to be a LGF fan too. And I think he is a fan of Pam Geller. So he knows the CJ meltdown.

    Prager didn’t write that at Frontpage — they picked it up from his syndicated column (also available at TownHall.com and JewishWorldReview.com)

    Given that it was for general distribution it is likely that defending The Other McCain was not a primary goal for his column (I leave it to others to debate whether it ought have been.)

    Look at it this way, Stacy: dude mentioned your name. It may help traffic at your site.

    And I second Joe’s suggestion about trying to get on Medved’s show.
