Ms. Solomon is the one with *issues.*
She's appearing for a *talk* the 16th at the Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art in Hartford.
I feel like going and giving her a piece of my mind.
The author sounds like a truly sick woman.
I always find it interesting that hack ‘writers’ decide that THEY KNOW what a person’s life was. The family denies it.There is a lack of context (i.e. the age in which Rockwell lived and worked). There is flat out personal projection of what this two bit ho WANTS to be Rockwell’s life (and no I haven’t bought or read her book. I gleaned this from the things quoted about her book).
It is like all the homosexual theologians wanting Daniel and Jesus to really be homosexual in their relationships with men.
Give this witch what for. She deserves it.
Here is what I think, any article that does not permit comment, is suspect.
AND there has been so much written about this man, and now we “find out he was a dead beat dad and depressed to boot” oh please excuse me while I gag.
Yep. Reminds me of when in college in the 60s Betty Friedan had just published her book *The Feminine Mystique* and was invited to speak at my college in Boston.
I remember getting into a screaming match with her in a *talk* after her lecture......the notion that every *stay-at-home mother [like mine, and every other mother that was part of my life up until that time] was *unhappy.*
Pure BS. These know-it-all LIEberals are so dangerous.
rewriting history as propaganda is something the left is good at.
I think it is because they have so much practise at it ;)
**For her next book, she wants to write about someone a bit more contemporary. Someone I could talk to.
Im so tired of having to interview the dead, she added. You know, theyre just not that forthcoming.**

The book is getting trounced on Amazon
Needs MORE trouncing

Thanks!
Thanks. A great read . and boy Toner did a job on her
The homos always try to take a famous person from the past and claim they were gay like Leonardo DaVinci. They never claim someone that was bad though; I don’t see them saying Hitler is a homo.
And this ‘writer’ knows more than the family and they even cooperated with her.
Yep ....He was a homo
lol
This woman obviously wrote the book with an agenda
Thank you for the link.
Most comments are treasures: **...poor, clumsy and absurd**, **painfully awkward**., **dishonest, sleazy **. Heh.
I apologize publicly for giving her work the time of day and any publicity she seeks.
One commenter agreed with my assessment: **Solomon hit on a way to sell her book by trying to discredit Rockwell with innuendo and drawing ridiculous connections that have been discredited by reviewers and people who know Rockwell’s work at least as well as she seems to think she does.**
LOL.....and guess-who is responsible for the loss of our *Four Freedoms*
