Did he really think I was that stupid? Some drooling goober hick that the city slicker “journalist” would quickly subdue and tie in little knots?
The funny part is his trying to pass himself off as a “terrorism expert.” He's all about climbing the MSM ladder to face time on ABCNNBCBS. His website verifies this in many obvious and not obvious ways. The most cute is how he describes himself as an “all-platform journalist.” He's almost begging, “Please, please put me on TV!”
The Daily Beast byline would no doubt appeal to the hipper TV “news” crowd, more so than stuff in the Dry Boring Terrorism Review where most of his unread crap is posted, to no notice.
These people are blinded by their own smug, self-congratulatory assurance that they’re ever so much more clever and sophisticated than the rest of us. By their lights, we’re all knuckle-draggers, by turns dangerous, contemptible and amusing. Our values and all we hold dear are sniggering punch lines to their cocktail party jokes.
They only live because of our self-restraint. Which today, has worn exceeding thin.
