Lunatic alert.

So who's on the William Rivers Pitt suicide watch?

[mylife]

Woahhh! this guys a loonytoon!
His blog is printed in gray on black. Its illegible

[musicman]

If Jason had a PO box, it would be great to see it suddenly become filled up with various "vein openers"....

[Slings and Arrows]

So who's on the William Rivers Pitt suicide watch?

[Sam Hill]

Do you or anybody else about remember the FR IDs for William Pitt? And is Truthout "publisher" Marc Ash related to the troll Ash (aka Ashisalive, and a hundred other pseudonyms)?

And I wonder what Leopold's handle is, for that matter.

It always amazes me how lavishly Soros and the rest of our one party establishment fund their lunatics.

[Sam Hill]

The pathological lying, plagiarist, drug addict, jailbird and mentally unbalanced America-hating Jason Leopold...

Just in case anyone thought I was exaggerating Leopold's credentials, here is one version of his (oft-edited) write-up in Wikipedia:

Mr. Leopold had written a book entitled Off the Record. The book’s release was permanently cancelled, however, following legal threats from one of the subjects of the book. In that book, Mr. Leopold planned to reveal many secrets of his life as a journalist such as a prior drug addiction, bouts with mental illness and suicide attempts, breaking journalistic rules, and lying to employers about a criminal conviction.

Is this his site or is someone satirizing his lunacy?

[Socratic]

THE 24 HOUR THING We reported that Patrick Fitzgerald had, “instructed one of the attorneys to tell Rove that he has 24 business hours to get his affairs in order….” That does not mean that at the end of that 24-hour period, Fitzgerald is obliged to hold a press conference and make an announcement. It just means that he has given Rove a 24-hour formal notification. Fitzgerald is not obliged to make an announcement at any point; he does so at his own discretion, and not if it compromises his case. So we’re all stuck waiting here. Grab some coffee.

His next revision:

"Sometime in the near future, not-so-near future, or unbelievably distant future, Rove is bound to have SOMETHING bad happen to him. Trust me."

I hate to be a stereotyper, but this guy is truly the poster boy for GIRLIE MAN MAGAZINE.

I think all traces of Pitt were probably expunged when JimRob took a toilet brush to the danker regions of the FR membership database some time ago. He was just as pretentious and unhinged then as he is now.

I may be one of the few FReepers who actually got a kick out of Ash - we exchanged some private correspondence between bannings. I'd have to read some of Mark Ash's stuff to be sure, but the multiple Ash incarnations did all contain a very distinctive dialectical style that's pretty easy to recognize. Sharp fellow and a bit of a joker. He should have used his powers for the forces of good... ;-)

His mommy?

[avacado]

Bingo!

But which one is the real male?

The email contact puts you in touch with the leftwing lunatic Chris Floyd.

Here is the start of his lovingly detailed lengthy bio from his site:

In truth, he writes now and then for the Moscow Times.

What a surprise that he would hook up with Leopold.

I was just thinking "who in the Sam Hill is Matt Hill?" when I scrolled down to who posted...

[MadIvan]

If it wasn't for the internet, he'd living in a park somewhere, wearing a dirty old overcoat with aged vomit stains and spend his days accosting strangers with his odd conspiracy theories and breath smelling of cheap hooch.
