The NYTimes wipes a tear for Lynn Stewart's ruined career [GAG]

New York Times, David Horowitz's FrontPage.com ^ | Sept. 23, 2002 | George Packer

The NYTimes is at it again! (Did they ever stop?) Oh the euphemisms to describe and pity this coddled New Yorker (traitor) and daughter of the American radical left! "Physically, Lynne Stewart suggests a cheerful and profound self-neglect." Read the woman doesn't bathe and has a beard! Ann Coulter, you were never so right in your book as you were about these bums.

[The Electrician]

Friends warned her that the sheik wasn't her kind of client. He was a religious fascist who opposed everything that the feminist, atheist and vaguely revolutionary Marxist Stewart stood for.

Bzzzzzzt! Wrong answer. An America hater like Stewart has plenty in common with the sheik...

[Havisham]

An America hater whose blind hatred the NYT's editorial board shares even now.

This is positively sickening! Poor ol' Lynne Stewart, warm-hearted and all that! Right! And passing messages to people who want to blow us up! She is as terrible as anyone who ever worked with the Nazis.

[Rockyrich]

History is very unforgiving of people who pick the wrong side at the wrong time in the wrong place.

This traitor had one chance in three to make a different dicision and save her life and career. But these socialists get so lost in their hatred for this country they lose common sense. Which in this case equals justice for our America.

She is as terrible as anyone who ever worked with the Nazis.

Good point, maica. A collaborator. A neo-Stalinist collaborator.

[Havisham]

I nearly missed the fact that it was Ramsey Clark, a former U.S. Attorney General for Jimmy Carter who recruited Lynne Stewart for the sake of the Arabs who relied on their friends in the American left. [paraphrase] This traitor still has an American passport--but a highly surveilled one, I hope.

[texson66]

Is it me? Or doesnt she remind you of Mrs Kruschev?

[Havisham]

Hehehe...I was a little slow on the dairy cow. I meant to post a photo. Be right back...

[Shermy]

Lynne Stewart's anti-American hate is so strong she'd ally herself with the worse oppressors. I'm surprised she actually embraces the Islamism - and knowing it, accepts it. Usually lefties don't want to hear about others real views.

[Shermy]

Article also fails to mention her work as a mob lawyer.

[Shermy]

Oops, a sentence or two.

[Havisham]

Look only with your hands over your eyes.

Finally Clark told her that if she refused, the Arab world would feel betrayed by their friends on the American left. So she agreed to take the case.

I hope every liberal Jew reads this and understands exactly what it means. I can only hope that the many Jewish people who have supported liberals in the past will see that they have been wasting their time and money.

What one learns from reading all this is that Stewart is a pinhead with no observable powers of discernment or judgment. These are the kinds of personal characteristics --- evidence of a sort of arrested devleopment or lifeloing immaturity --- which often come to light when one digs into the life of a leftist.

Growing up in the 50's in farthest Queens, the daughter of schoolteachers, Lynne Feltham was a bookish tomboy.

Somebody needs to get this story to Michael Savage. Stewart is a perfect exemplar of what Savage calls "red-diaper doper baby lawyers".

[crazykatz]

She looks like a fat Martha Stewart....can she cook? OOOPS....she looks like she CAN eat, though!!

All morning in Ramsey Clark's office, Stewart wavered. Finally Clark told her that if she refused, the Arab world would feel betrayed by their friends on the American left. So she agreed to take the case.

Truth from the mouth of the Times.
