Charles Pierce is an old Boston gas bag who used write for that old leftist rag The Boston Phoenix. Don’t stare at him as you walk by.

Charles Pierce is an old Boston gas bag who used write for that old leftist rag The Boston Phoenix.

That old rag just ceased print publication. It's free circulation was actually up 22% in 2011 (most other "alternative weeklies" were down), but ad revenue was tanking. Couldn't happen to a finer bunch of leftards!
