The Troll R.J. Sterling: Charles Johnson Fanboy Enjoys #TwitterGulag Tricks

For some reason — and “reason” is perhaps not exactly the word to describe the irrational motives of moonbats — a certain Twitter account got up in my face yesterday. The troll seemed to be dogpiling attacks by thin-skinned Charles Johnson after I made a jest: via @leginsurrection Evidence that the ‘Charles Johnson stereotype’ is […]

Consulting the Legal Department

My previous observation that no one could be sued for libel for merely describing the self-evident fact of Bill Schmalfeldt’s derangment drew a mildly critical e-mail from a lawyer friend: Not to be a pedant, but the reason it’s not defamatory is that it’s a statement of opinion based on disclosed facts, and therefore not […]

And Now, Helpless Victim Bill Schmalfeldt Heroically Suffers Glorious Martyrdom

Bill Schmalfeldt: Not cropped to ‘look positively demonic’ “Let’s talk about R.S. McCain, as well — Robert Stacy McCain. Here he writes column after column after column about me, in which he refers to me in the most defamatory ways, about being deranged . . . and he takes that picture of me that was […]

Bill Schmalfeldt of Elk Ridge, Maryland, a.k.a. “Liberal Grouch” It’s noon, boys and girls, which means that deranged cyberstalker Bill Schmalfeldt is now podcasting his fathomless rage against Lee Stranahan and other eeeee-vil people who, just coincidentally, happen to be on Brett Kimberlin’s enemies list. Schmalfeldt’s compulsive lying has been previously examined here, but on […]

That Feeling When The Goal Is Known, But The Means Remain Ambiguous

by Smitty The question of exactly how to re-engage the culture is a serious one, especially when approached from a Christian viewpoint. This is a political blog with a SoCon flavor that is neither hidden, nor preached like Jonathan Edwards. And yet, Jerry at Goldfish and Clowns issues “A Challenge to Conservatives” that tempts one […]

Kooky Tuesday Continues: Is Social Media Breeding Monsters? Oh, Hell, Yes!

Having begun the day with a post about deranged cyberstalker Bill Schmalfeldt, followed up with a post about a maniac professor at Columbia University, and then added a discussion of the (allegedly) felonious kook Barrett Brown, let’s stick with the theme, eh? In a post at Breitbart.com’s new group-blog thingie, Mandy Nagy asks “Is Social […]
