Thanks, the guy is nuts. Truthout is getting a pasting at DU and other lefty sites. I have not seen a posting by William Rivers Pitt in a few days. He really went out on a limb with Leopold who is looking more and more like a Psycho. His sources are voices in his head.

I think you're right. Ash was fairly gentle and had a sense of humor.

Neither of which can be said of the odious Marc Ash.

"His blog is printed in gray on black. Its illegible"

Don't tell him he's wrong about that. He'll start up another web site for the occasion!

I never would have imagined he'd look like that. </sarc>

His picture reminds me of "Backpfeifengesicht" (German for a face that cries out for a fist in it).

They let patients blog from inside the asylums?

I remember the Ash-can. He's too sick and demented to do anything good.

And is Truthout "publisher" Marc Ash related to the troll Ash (aka Ashisalive, and a hundred other pseudonyms)?

ASH ALERT!

:-)

Actually, I liked having Ash around, for two reasons:

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

Not pretty enough.

Sheesh, even Wonkette is bashing him:





Finally, New Media Iconoclasts Daring Enough to be Against Bloggers and the MSM

Dear “Eat Crow Dot Org,”

While we appreciate the spirited venom of your only two posts, castigating those “bloggers, forumists, and mainstream media (MSM) pundits” stupid enough to be skeptical of Jason Leopold’s thus-far unconfirmed story that HE AND ONLY HE KNOWS FOR SURE THAT KARL ROVE HAS BEEN INDICTED, the traditional period for crow-eating is, in fact, after one has been been proved wrong. As it is now Wednesday evening, and, thus far, Karl Rove does not seem to have been indicted, we find ourselves confused by the victorious tone of your new venture.

It is worth noting, for the record, that we believe a) that Karl Rove will be indicted eventually, probably soon, and b) that Jason Leopold no longer writes for Salon or Raw Story* because his anonymous sources have a habit of overselling their insider knowledge and a tradition of gun-jumping.

Yours,
Wonkette

P.S. Wonkette has EXCLUSIVELY LEARNED from our TOP SECRET SOURCES that Katherine Harris has LOST HER BID FOR THE FLORIDA SENATE. While her spokesperson denies it, we have a number of confidential sources in the Florida press who have confirmed it on background. While no one can say when it will be announced officially, we know ALL OF YOU WILL BE SORRY YOU DIDN’T BELIEVE US ONCE YOU READ IT IN YOUR SO-CALLED MSM.

It took a while to load, for me. I think they're on a crappy server/connection, and are seeing some slashdot effect.

Is it time for the padded room and the elegant little jacket that ties in the back? ;)

I have revised the original article to reflect the outside possibility that Leopold himself might not be involved in this site.

But it is hard to believe, especially given their artwork:

And the rest of the "pieces" there and the date of its creation.

But unlike Truthout, I strive to be accurate.

Some people have a mental illness that makes them crave attention, and it doesn't matter whether the attention is positive or negative. I know nothing about Leopold but I would bet that his parents were not happy about having him and they probably didn't hide it very well while he was growing up.

His wacky behavior is likely therapuetic for him, and if it keeps him from committing suicide or venting in a violent manner then that's okay by me. I don't wish to see hardly anybody go out that way.
