The Other McCain

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

Weirdos, Freaks and Degenerates

Well, yes, that would be a fairly accurate description of the MSNBC audience, but I had in mind the latest news from Ohio: Three Ashland residents held a cognitively disabled woman and her child against her will for two years and forced her to perform manual labor for them, law enforcement officials said in a […]

Speaking of (Alleged) Perverts …

Hey, #FreeKate: Some of your enthusiastic supporters were on their way to Florida to "help." Unfortunately … http://t.co/MJkOs405hz — Robert Stacy McCain (@rsmccain) June 19, 2013 Some of these creepazoids were as young as 18, the same age as Kaitlyn Hunt when she fingered a 14-year-old in a school toilet stall, so maybe the ACLU […]

Raped and Killed by the Sequester?

After more than 27 years in the news business, I’m used to reading about frightful events — war, terrorism, catastrophic floods and earthquakes — but every once in a while even I can be stunned into horrified silence when I encounter a sentence like this: The girl later required surgery, Fitzpatrick said.

Edward Snowden: Paranoid Goofball or America-Hating Douchebag?

Gary Herndon: ‘Model Citizen’

Readers will recall that the attorney for accused sex offender Kaitlyn Hunt called her client a “model citizen.” And readers may also recall the evidence that the term “model citizen” apparently has a very flexible definition for “Free Kate” supporters: “Beat her f**king ass, Emily! Beat her ass! Get that bitch!” Bad causes attract bad […]

‘A Little Girl on Her Way to School’

Those were the words Assistant District Attorney Thaddeus West used Wednesday morning in York County (Maine) Superior Court to describe the victim of a brutal attack by Dane Bosley.
