Rall is a lowlife who is hoping to vault himself to the slime-pantheon infected by Michael Moore and Al Franken, and grab the big bucks.
To that end, he's shaming himself on TV as much as possible with vile slanders.
But....
Sooner or later, Rall is going to walk into a bar and be recognized by some former or off-duty Army Rangers, who are going to remember his vicious slander of Pat Tillman.
He won't be on TV for a long time after that, not until he gets the bandages off, and learns how to walk and talk with formerly unused (but still functional) parts of his brain.
Ted Rall has had his ass kicked before. Speculation now is he may have been asking for it.
From Amazon.com:
Outrageous Ted recounts his junior-high years in the hands of a merciless bully who just wouldn¹t let up. Ted, now a strapping fella over 6 feet happily lost in the Big Apple, was at the time a wimp egghead lost in the middle of Nowheresville, Heartland, USA, and hated it with a passion. This no-holds-barred recollection begs the question: was his attitude such that maybe he deserved it?
The American left has disintegrated and only can cling to people who lie as a part of their theatrics.
Actually, I think you could make Rall curl up into a ball with a hard look and that he relies on the basic human impulse of not beating the crap out of pathetic losers to survive from day to day.
