Adam Shriver confronts Andrew Breitbart AND Dana Loesch: Shriver wins

This weekend, St. Louis Activist Hub's Adam Shriver confronts Dana Loesch and Andrew Breitbart. You know who won? The good guy, not the goons who work for Breitfart. Remember the last time Shriver confronted Loesch, and she lost badly.

Here are the videoclips that expose them two for the loons that they are:






The ethically challenged Andrew Breitbart was making shit up as usual:

Breitbart claims that Kenneth Gladney was called the n-word by Elston McCowan. At best this claim is disputed and I would argue the evidence against it is stronger than the evidence for it. At the trial, which I attended unlike anyone from the tea party, the three defense witnesses all were consistent in saying that what Elston McCowan, a black Baptist Minister, said was the word "negro" rather than The N-word. On the other hand, out of the three witnesses from the prosecution, one said that McCowan used the bizarre expression "son of an n-word," one said he used the expression "n-word" but didn't hear anything about a "son of a..", and Kenneth Gladney, after two years of saying that only Elston McCowan used the n-word, all-of-a-sudden changed his story to now claim that both McCowan and co-defendent Perry Molens called him the n-word. The inconsistencies between the prosecution's witnesses and the fact that Gladney changed his story no doubt counted strongly against the prosecution's case, as the jury took only 40 minutes to reach a "non-guilty" verdict for the SEIU defendants.
Breitbart repeated his absurd conspiracy theory that the White House sent a signal for "union thugs" to beat up innocent tea partiers at the town halls. He implicated the deputy White House Chief of Staff, the head of the AFL-CIO John Sweeney, and the SEIU in his grand conspiracy. Though the claim is clearly absurd that there was some massive government conspiracy coming from the White House to beat up a random guy selling buttons at a townhall, Breitbart actually showed remarkable constraint, at least considering that his sites and the tea party have collectively implicated all of the following groups and entities in their conspiracy theories about that night:

Breitbart claims that only Carnahan supporters were allowed in the townhall. This is not true. In fact, Dana Loesch and many tea partiers were in the townhall, as she admits. The claim is based on the fact that in addition to the main entrance there was a side door where some but not all people were being allowed in. My guess is that the door was being used to allow people in who had volunteered to help, but I honestly don't know the exact circumstances. Regardless, it doesn't have much relevance for the question of who started the altercation between McCowan and Gladney.

Breitbart's argument that UMSL should post the full 31 hours of video is a red herring. UMSL is prohibited by law from releasing the personal information of students, and for good reason. Academic freedom is, in part, based on the idea that students should be allowed to explore academic ideas in a classroom without fear of retribution or persecution. Breitbart's decision to post video of the students' comments on a public website is despicable. As for his suggestion that UMSL publish a transcript of the entire class with student names blocked out, I suspect that the reason they're not doing that is the same reason that he won't do it: it would be an absurdly time-intensive project.

His Lieutenant Smearer-In-Chief Dana Loesch went right to her incoherent talking points:
  • At the beginning of the video Loesch asks "Does Washington University know that it's employee is here using its resources to smear private citizens?" It's true that I'm a graduate student at Washington University, but why Loesch thinks that I'm "using university resources" by engaging in a non-academic discussion on a Saturday afternoon in the summer is beyond me. Seems a little anti-free speech, doesn't it?
  • Loesch claims, and has been claiming for a year, that I'm an "SEIU blogger." I've never been paid anything by SEIU and have no idea why anyone would call me that. Loesch claims that someone referred to me as an "SEIU blogger" on a video, and suggests that someone from SEIU made that claim at an NAACP press conference. I'm skeptical that anyone from SEIU said that since I don't think anyone from the group was even at the press conference she mentioned, but whomever said it would be wrong.
  • Loesch also claims that I "laughed" at the same NAACP press conference when someone called Gladney an "Uncle Tom." It's true that I was at the event, but I'm sure I didn't laugh. I remember feeling uncomfortable with the comments. Another manufactured smear.
  • Finally, Loesch disgustingly claimed that I was "stalking her children," another tea party conspiracy theory I've heard before. I previously had no idea what the claim was referring to, but Loesch explained that it was in reference to the fact that, "you clicked the website where my children are on." In other words, despite the fact that I have never, ever, said anything about her children in any context nor do I know anything about them or want to, she's claiming that I "stalk her children" because one time I linked to a post on her Mom Blog that she had referenced from her political Twitter account. That's pretty despicable behavior from a CNN analyst, or from anyone for that matter.


  • Is this woman batshit crazy or what?! She used to have a blog about her family, called Mamalogues, which she quit posting there earlier this year. She just HATES having someone informed call her out on her inane bullshit.



    Jim Hoft's Gateway Pundit calls Shriver a "leftist troll" and refers him as "Allen Shriver."
    Andrew Breitbart spoke at the MoveOnUp.org Conference for black conservatives in St. Louis this past weekend. (It was a great success, by the way.) During a break Andrew was ambushed by a local far left troll Allen Shriver from the St. Louis Activist Hub. Shriver has a reputation for being a complete loon – his long, rambling, Media Matters a$$-kissing post on the ambush confirms this.


    Nope, it's Adam Shriver, thank you very much. And it's Hoft that's the complete loon, not Shriver.

    My comment on GatewayPundit's joke of a site:
    That blogger from the St. Louis Activist Hub’s name is ADAM Shriver, and NOT ALLEN Shriver. Hoft, Loesch, and Breitfart are lying morons, and Shriver’s telling the truth as usual.

    I bet it will be deleted or reported eventually.

    KTVI covered the Move-On-Up story, but did it cover Shriver? Nope.

    African Americans who share conservative views on society and politics gathered in St. Louis this weekend to talk about building a grassroots organization. It was the first national convention for Move-On-Up.Org, a group that began as an electronic social network connecting blacks who felt big government was heading in the wrong direction.

    The meeting drew people from six or seven states as well as Missouri politicians including Republican Lt. Governor Peter Kinder.

    Nationally known conservatives Andrew Breitbart, known for his blog Big Government and Star Parker, a syndicated columnist, author and network TV commentator were among the speakers. Parker runs a think tank which promotes market based pubic policy to fight poverty.

    The first African American chairman of the St. Charles County Republican Party, Eugene Dokes credited Move-On-Up with encouraging his interest in politics and challenging him to improve his education.
    Kinder avoided talking to reporters who were waiting for him outside the dinner event at the Crowne Plaza Hotel at the Airport. He slipped in and out of a kitchen entrance.
    Missouri Lt. Governor Peter Kinder (R) snuck out of the conference to avoid scrutiny about his sordid details.



    Kudos to Adam Shriver for going into enemy territory to call out these morons.

    UPDATE: In the clip, per Daily RFT, Andrew Breitbart told Dana Loesch to "shut up."



    This Thursday is the one-year anniversary of DanaBusted.Blogspot.com.

    #LoeschFail alert: Dana Loesch falsely slandering Missouri college teachers as "Commies," "union thugs"

    Over the past couple of days, serial liar Dana Loesch has promoted flagrant falsehoods about UMSL and UMKC, saying that she claims to have "tapes of UMSL/UMKC teachers encouraging Communism and 'union violence'." Of course, the tapes were edited and distorted, typical of Breitfart cronies. The Columbia Tribune posted this article from the pro-Breitbart/Loesch viewpoint.

    Videos showing two University of Missouri instructors apparently advocating for union violence don’t represent the UM System as a whole, a spokeswoman said.

    The videos — posted online yesterday on Andrew Breitbart’s Big Government website — show snippets of Judy Ancel, director of UM-Kansas City’s Institute for Labor Studies, team-teaching with Don Giljum of Operating Engineers 148. The Labor in Society & Politics class is a joint effort between UMKC and UM-St. Louis.

    The videos are clearly edited — something Breitbart is known for. His news aggregate website is the one that put out an edited video showing Shirley Sherrod, an official at the U.S. Department of Agriculture, claiming she discriminated against a white farmer. The video later was shown to have been edited out of context, and Sherrod has filed a lawsuit against him.


    Unlike the GOP spin from Janese Silvey, here's amore reasonable article from Fired Up Missouri:


    I'm blown away by this story in the Columbia Tribune by Janese Silvey.

    Even though the Andrew Breitbart empire of websites has a well documented history of using dishonestly editing videos to further their political goals against NPR, ACORN, Shirley Sherrod and others, the Tribune has posted videos from Breitbart's BigGovernment.com because... they "are making the rounds online."

    The videos -- complete with the now-familiar quick cuts and odd edits -- are taken from an unknown numbers of classes and feature named and unnamed persons from what we're told are classes about the labor movement led by instructors UMKC and UMSL.

    Or should congratulations go to Breitbart for finding someone to republish his dreck in a town that prides itself for top-flight journalism?


    Here's one of the videos that Breitbart has obviously distorted.

    St. Louis Activist Hub's Adam Shriver slams Loesch and her butt buddies for propagating lies.


    @ So when are you going to release the full, unedited tapes of the lectures?

    @ Wow, you got Breitbarted! Ever think that it might be a good idea to, you know, maybe ask for the full unedited tapes?
    25 Apr

    @ OK, time to play the Breitbart blogger game of condemning everything ever said by some person/group..

    @ Sherrod tapes were presented to portray her as racist. NPR tapes changed context. You've earned your reputation.

    @ Are you saying Breitbart didn't call Sherrod racist?

    @ As for history of labor, of course that was violent, given that the companies violently suppressed labor.

    Difference between this case and @'s usual dishonesty: she is the originator of this story. Pay attention @ '

    Today, @ put herself squarely in the Breitbart camp of disgraced media figures. Outright lies that she manufactured & pushed.

    @ @ Nope, you are outright lying. Release the full context of "violence is a tactic" quote. Blatant lying. Sherrod Part 2.

    @ Release the full video. Even better, just release the 10 seconds before the quote. You're lying.

    @ The story about the Missouri professors is a complete out-of-context fabrication.

    @ How many times do you need to be burned before asking for full tapes from Breitbart? If you run with it, you deliberately mislead.

    @ @ Same people who claimed Sherrod was "discriminating" and "racist" now claim profs support "violence." Figure it out.

    The Breitbart swarm is hilarious. They don't even care if they're exposed later: just desperately want media attention in the short-term.

    Somehow, I bet @ has good lawyers. She will probably need them after these attacks on Missouri teachers..

    Heh, @ follows every word of my Twitter conversation, yet is afraid to reference me? I thought she was all "punk rawk?"

    @ I've said for a long time there are/(or were) decent people in tea party, but the Breitbart crew ain't among them!

    @ is lucky his insults pack no punch, because I now know way too much about him.

    @ She's pushing a misleading edited video claiming that UMSL and UMKC profs "encouraged violence."

    @ Whoever did your "editing" on this last once really messed up. If you think Sherrod damaged your credibility, just wait.
    Other Liberals, like me and Taunia Adams, also ripped Loesch's bullshit excuses.

    TauniaAdams
    Doubtful, considering her legal probs, and multi frivolous restraining order threats RT @: I bet @ has good lawyers.

    Doctoring vids: RW disease. Cure: () RT @: Hannity got beat by girl/the truth. @

    theboneblog
    @ @ Oh, this whole 'professors teaching violence' thing in a labor class in the UM system.

    @ Methinks you're missing the point. Breitbart slandered Sherrod, got sued. Dana slanders a prof, she might get sued.

    I'm glad Breitbart and his cronies have enough time on their hands to sit around and find videos to edit.

    Justin Gibson
    @: Last time I checked, @ is NOT a "stalker." However, people like Dana Loesch, @, and @ are stalkers.

    @: Actually, @ got OWNED by @, not the other way around.

    @: It is you, @, @, @, and @ that are distortionists, not @ or @.

    Shut up, @! What you're saying about unions and SEIU is discredited garbage!

    What Dana's saying on the UMKC/UMSL stuff is bunch of lies designed to scare people. They are NOT teaching Communism.

    Dana Loesch is indeed advocating violence against Liberals and Democrats.

    Cathy Sherwin
    Yes, Breitbart's deceptive editing hit and the tea party would like to eliminate labor studies. All newsworthy I'm sure. @ get off your high horse, already.My grandparents,never been in a union,Grandpa was in mgmt.He's worried about GOP ending Medicare.

    Don't get so far on a rant you disrespect the many union members working for Ameren around the clock after . @ @
    Naturally, Dana The Devil sent her attack dogs to defend Breitbart and the distorted tapes. Of course, their tweets were just falsehoods and personal attacks.

    Dana Loesch
    Very curious as to what @ thinks about its professors teaching that criminal activity is OK in class:

    @ The man who lives with his mom in Granite City and threatened to hang me? Considering having him served with a PO.

    Heh, the only way video of Marxist professors teaching that the flag is "racist" and how-to for industrial sabotage is "out of context"

    @ @ @ LOL. I love how it's "lying" to criticize someone caught on tape saying "American flag is racist."

    @ @ @ Or how it's "lying" to criticize college profs caught on tape endorsing thug tactics multiple times.

    @ That's what is so funny. Technically, I have a case due to the libel (love when people can't tell the difference so use both)

    @ You give him too much credit. I don't give him attention because he's a stalker and just not that good at politics.

    @ LOL. He was so scared he forgot to record me with his camera. See, a real pundit would have debated. Was sad.

    LOL @ Nice try. Not falling for your silliness. I know how the left works. U own this class.

    LOL I guess @ thinks professor said "violence is a tactic" BUT u should never use it. Hint: She didn't.


    Hey @ just thinking I got drawn into a fight with a minnow. Need to atone for my focus on @. Weird on my part.

    I'm sorry @ ur allies are on tape advocating violence. U have to deal with it. Wait until this happens across campuses.

    @ would you condemn industrial sabotage? Or disrupting power plants causing black-outs?

    Right @ cause everyone sits around after 60 minutes saying, Boy...I need to see the full tapes...only us w that standard

    @ what drives lefties like @ nuts is they know we have the goods, cuz its typical college fare. The gig is up.

    Report the story @. If we are wrong U will be praised by progressives everywhere. U can do it!

    @ @ @ Oh look a ponytail hang with Commies Union leftie is making demands . What's next a threat of violence

    Hey @ @ @ isn't it funny watching lefties hating on Dana success ? does that

    @ @ maybe we should release Shriver tapes of him saying " he hangs with commies"
    @ @ find it more odd that you support violence and sabotage of power plants

    @ I don't debate hacks like that. I simply use them as examples of the intellectual deficit on the Left.

    @ She said violence was to be used when it's an appropriate tactic. You're seriously grasping here. @

    You know, tool, it might help if you had some evidence before you go around trying to accuse people of lying. @

    Also, don't you think they know people you would ask for the "unedited videos", moron? But hey.... keep sounding the alarm. @

    Are you trying to say that those guys aren't communists and they weren't lecturing about how to be subversives? @

    LOL! @ wannabe -> MT @ UMSL/UMKC tapes look highly edited. @ owns this story if there turns out to be misleading

    Jimi
    The fact is! That @ is arrogant enuff to think that @ views his lil' Boehlert page when HE responds to her show..HE... @ trolled @'s mommy blog, HE (Adam Shriver) injected himself into Wash U Student paper about Dana...HE..has been trying to bring down @ her husband,any little thing he @ can get.ALL THIS & every single time falls FLAT on his face!

    Ya see @ PRIDES himself in RT's from Senior Fellow @ and response from"Breitbart Crew" this is his activist oxygen

    I think @ oughtta stick to contemplating the pain fish, may or may not feel... One thing at a time Adam.

    @ @ @ YET Adam blogs Aw shucks Think I stood my ground in "mob" later says Tea folks nice people? Which is it?

    @ @ jjmnolte If Dana is afraid 2 reference you Adam,why did SHE confront u last yr rally?Made u look like a smacked ass.

    @ @ Oh and by the way stop stealing Michelle's "punk rawk" ref, come up with your own stuff Adam. ;)

    @ @ @ Adam, are that fucking arrogant to think that Dana is following you? Really? You're a parrot of lib talk.

    @ @ @ 99.9% of the time when u see the words.."she or her" on his Twitter page? It's about Dana. A Diva thing.


    She is indeed doing libelous activity that warrants being suspended from her job and/or liable to be sued.

    More Dana Loesch insanity

    We got even more Dana Loesch insanity for you: My earlier blogpost says that Loesch should be fired from Emmis. She WILL the The Big Tool of the Week and likely Assclown on the Week.

    Adam Shriver of the St. Louis Activist Hub had this:

    More From Loesch: If MoveOn.org Was "Chivalrous," They Wouldn't Let Women Attend Political Events

    I wrote earlier about how horrible human being Dana Loesch demanded that a MoveOn activist apologize for having her head stomped on by an angry Rand Paul supporter while being held on the ground by other Paulites.

    Now Loesch is doubling down, claiming that MoveOn wasn't "chivalrous" because they didn't prevent a woman from attending a political debate:



    She's still harping about "'Union Thugs' beating up Gladney" nonsense.

    Adam Shriver of the St. Louis Activist Hub calls her bullshit out.
    Dana Loesch, who really does not actually know very much about the Kenneth Gladney case (as evidenced by her embarrassing attacks on a local county counselor), has recently been spreading more verifiable misinformation about the altercation. Pointing out some of these falsehoods will serve as a nice reminder of some of the main flaws in treating the police report on the incident as gospel. In fact, the police report contains several falsehoods and is based entirely on the testimony of biased tea party activists. As stated by someone arguing with Loesch on Twitter:

    The record that debunks Dana's lies: http://www.scribd.com/doc/31481339/Records-Letter

    Even more nonsense from Liar Loesch claiming that "Conservatives got beaten up for being Conservative."

    That, as we will see, is particularly salient in this case, but first I'll focus on some of Loesch's specific falsehoods. For starters, Loesch repeatedly claimed that Kelly Owens was "beaten" and "punched in the face." And, in fact, the police report also states that Owens was hit in the face. However, in an extended video from the night that includes Owens being interviewed by the police, Owens specifically responds, when asked by the police where she was hit, that her camera was hit which in turn hit her face. So she was not "punched in the face," and she certainly was not "beaten." Now, I'm certainly not saying that Cheryl Joiner's act of hitting Owens' camera was OK. Joiner was wrong to do that and I'm glad that charges were filed. However, to claim that a simple act of slapping a camera is the same thing as beating someone or punching them in the face, and specifically as being in the same category as stomping on a woman's neck, is just plain wrong.

    So, just to review:

  • We have at least three central claims in the police report being directly contradicted by video evidence from the scene or later interviews with the same witnesses.
  • We also have only three "witnesses" who didn't actually witness the fight starting and who all happen to be tea partiers with clear ideological agendas.
  • And finally we have a ridiculous arrest of Post-Dispatch reporter Jake Wagman by the same police during the same events.

  • Show Me Progress had this to say:

    The only thing I've seen from St. Louis Tea Party blogs on the brutal attack on the MoveOn supporter at the Rand Paul rally was a couple of posts by Jim Hoft essentially claiming that Paul supporters were forced to drag the woman to the ground and step on her head.
    Loesch wants to start trouble on her BigJournalism blog:

    If she didn’t want to be restrained she shouldn’t have gone with the intent to start trouble, but congressional members also need to provide their own security. Sure, the man shouldn’t have placed his foot on her head. Me writing that just now is more than Soros employees Eric Boehlert and his Soros crew over at Media Matters will ever say on Kenneth Gladney and Kelly Owens, two victims of actual violence. They’re too busy defending the people who beat them, mocking and slurring the victims. Boehlert is terrified to touch the subject of Kelly Owens’ beating because he’s more concerned with making sure he remains popular amongst an organization that would condone the beating of women and minorities.



    People like this fraudster Dana Loesch are the scum of the earth and should go to Hell. I hear there's a room for her down there next to Breitfart and James O'Keefe. Also, for any aspiring musician in St. Louis, boycott Shock City Music because it is owned by Dana's jerkass husband, Chris.

    DanaBusted.com EXCLUSIVE: Jimi971/WaxStax, Dana's BFF, has called me a stalker, etc...

    Recently, Jimi971 is attacking me as an "Unstable Leftist" and other crap that is lie-based.


    From STLMedia.net, where some of the posters are calling me a "Moonbat", a "Loon", and even as far as a "Mama's Basement-type stalker", simply for telling it like it is about their favorite Diva Dana Loesch (or any Republican/Conservative for that matter):

    WaxStax: It's obvious "death threat boy" that your obsession clouds your senses. How can anyone who threatens, stalks, and makes a baffoon of himself daily in regards to Loesch, hold any credibility in any forum? People on this board that are or have been in the business, know exactly the obsessive type you are. You need help dude.

    ThxWaxStax


    Gibson? Do you realize that Shriver apparently has disowned you? As I've read anyway? Why don't you stop leaning on him to justify your obsessions with Dana? Even Shriver as left as he is thinks you're "batshit crazy" as you say right?

    As for the 9/12 rally? What were you actually watching there? I was there... Shriver the boy, got reprimanded from a grown woman... Were you there Justin? Or were you in your mama's basement waiting on your chicken noodle soup from Mama?

    ThxWaxStax
    Link

    WaxStax (aka @Jimi971), you are lying about Shriver disowning me. He has NOT disowned me. Why don't YOU stop leaning on your BFF Dana for every last bit of political advice and to justifying YOUR stalkerish behavior towards Liberals like Me, Shriver, Jaco, etc?

    Waxxy...can you dump this Gibson guy? He has a sick obsession with Dana that goes beyond mere disagreement with her politics. I have read some of his stuff elsewhere and quite frankly, he is nuts.



    FanOfRams: By the way Gibson you Moonbat, the word "owned" is in the eye of the beholder. Your "evidence" is useless.

    WaxStax: Oh no I'm not going to dump him, I'm dragging this clown out....

    Anything else Justin?

    http://stlmedia.proboards.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=emmis&thread=8293&page=1#82385

    Twitter: Jimi971 STILL won't shut up about @STLActivistHub attempting to disown me.
    1. Jimi Jimi971 @jgibsondem I would again suggest that @stlactivisthub get rid of this clown Justin. He is a time bomb to ruin credibility for sure...
    2. Jimi Jimi971
      @JGibsonDem Justin you idiot, do you think I care if my name is know on a fucking message board? Everyone there knows my name you child.
    @stlactivisthub Did you not see the Tweet of Gibsons' that I put out here of blatantly racist comments from him? Yet you FF'd him?

    @stlactivisthub @LiberalStLouis I'm glad you agree Adam. Don't let Gibson tie you two together. BTW- JC is an ego-maniac, but talented.
    @LiberalStLouis @stlactivisthub Sure. Yet Adam is linked by this guy daily.Leans on Adam to justify his own sorry blog,using Adam. He Hates

    @LiberalStLouis @stlactivisthub @DLoesch No and I agree, that's why I wish that Shriver would pay attn to JGibson who is over the top...


    Adam Shriver backs up the truth here, and Jimi/WaxStax is clearly fibbing:

    @Jimi971 Happy to talk about that, but I'm noting that you have *not* been able to defend @gatewaypundit linking to white supremacist sites.

    @Jimi971 I have never said Hoft is racist. I have said that his behavior of linking to white supremacist web sites is reprehensible.

    @Jimi971 Hoft was told repeatedly that he was linking to white supremacist sites, yet he kept up the links.

    @Jimi971 However, you and @dloesch posted a video of other people laughing at it, and falsely implied that it showed that *I* was laughing.

    LiberalStLouis, who's following me on Twitter, said this:
    @Jimi971 @stlactivisthub Like I said, we can denounce (which I do) but in the end it's on Gibson.

    Adam Shriver pwns Dana Loesch, STL Teabagger Hate Cabal Asskisses Roy Blunt

    Adam Shriver, a blogger at the STL Activist Hub, attends the 9/12 Teabagger Rally and questions one of the members of the STL Teabagger Hate Cabal (Dana Loesch) harasses him as a "stalker" and a "defamer." She has also referred me as "a person who sits in Mama's basement defaming my character."

    Some points about the conversation:
  • The reason I hesitated about whether I'm "a Washington University employee" is because I'm on dissertation fellowship this year, so I actually was not sure whether I would be classified as an employee. However, I am pretty sure that I'm not considered "staff." It's not because I was trying to "conceal my identity" as they claim. And for the bazillionth time, I'm not, "using the university's resources to smear and libel private citizens."
  • Dana and her cronies are outright defamatory jerks by going after Shriver with no facts to back it up.

  • Speaking of which, she's still ridiculously claiming that I "libel" and "defame" her by responding to her public political statements. She also claims that responding to her opinions is equivalent to "stalking" her. On this definition, I am also "stalking" Bill Hennessy, Ed Martin, Roy Blunt, Jim Hoft, Adam Sharp, etc. etc. etc. And, for that matter, Dana Loesch is "stalking" Eric Boehlert and President Obama. She sure as hell would be "stalking" Russ Carnahan when she burned a picture of him and said, "This is how a fire smells when it's burning Tyranny" on this definition. But on the real definition, it's not stalking to criticize other people's political viewpoints that they state on blogs or on Twitter. Most people with even a modicum of intelligence realize that once you put a political opinion out on Twitter, people are going to read and respond to it. Likewise, it's not "libel" to use evidence to point out when other people are wrong.
  • As I say in the conversation, all of this blabber about "stalking" and "libel" is an attempt by Loesch to shut down political discourse, and shows just how scared she is of having people actually analyze her comments.

  • Loesch can't stand smart, well-informed people owning her in a debate, so she is a coward and is well-known for refusing to open up the comments on the Dana Radio blog and on her youtube page. Suprisingy, her show's facebook page allows comments (if you fan her).



  • She said I tried to expose "payola situations" and hence was "coming after her job." Well, sorry, but if her husband's business Shock City Studios gets $5,000 from Ed Martin and she fails to disclose that while giving Martin favorable coverage, then I'm going to mention it (BTW, Chad Garrison and another reporter who wasn't in a position to write about it agreed that this was a newsworthy story). It's called "a conflict of interest" and most people are capable of recognizing clear instances of it.
  • She thought she was clever by saying that the Congressional Black Caucus also made a video there so, "does that mean she's in the pocket of the CBC?" But, as I said in the video, I think the rules would be exactly the same. If she was reporting on the CBC, then she would have a duty to disclose that she had a financial conflict of interest. Transparency isn't only a good thing for the government. It's also quite an important feature of a well-functioning media. I tried to explain this to her but her Fox News Guide to Conversation kicked in and she simply ignored my point multiple times before changing the subject.

  • She says that I "attack them personally" but "never address the merits of their ideas." Hilarious.
  • Dana alluded to the right-wing conspiracy theory that health care reform is "unconstitutional." As I point out, this is not true according to the dominent interpretation of the commerce clause: While I agree that the recent commerce clause cases hold that Congress may not regulate noneconomic activity, as such, they also state that Congress may reach otherwise unregulable conduct as part of an overarching regulatory scheme, where the regulation of such conduct is necessary and proper to the success of such scheme. In this case, the overall scheme would involve the regulation of "commerce" as the Supreme Court has defined it for several decades, as it would involve the regulation of health care markets. And the success of such a regulatory scheme would depend upon requiring all to participate. (Among other things, if health care reform requires insurers to issue insurance to all comers, and prohibits refusals for pre-existing conditions, then a mandate is necessary to prevent opportunistic behavior by individuals who simply wait to purchase insurance until they get sick.)


  • The 2010 Health Care Reform Act, while not perfect, is a start.
  • Finally, her comment about "poll numbers" was a complete distraction. We were discussing whether the law was unconstitutional, not whether it was popular. Incidentally, the latest poll shows a very small difference between the number who view it favorably and those who view in unfavorably, 43-45.

  • Dana must've been using Biasmussen polls as usual.

    Also, this moron tried to claim 14,000 showed up, when in fact maybe 4,000 at the most showed up.

    Bill Streeter said this to me on Twitter:

    @JGibsonATRL my estimate is 3k on the high side (99% white)

    Want further proof that the STL Tea Party kisses up to Roy Blunt:
    A long while ago, the St. Louis took their shot at being a group that actually fought for the values they claimed to endorse. They held a press conference demanding that Roy Blunt endorse Doug Hoffman in the NY-23 race over Dede Scozzafava. They said that if he didn't, "We will vote you out! We will come at you with so much heat, you won't even know how to handle it!"

    Roy Blunt didn't endorse Hoffman. He completely ignored the St. Louis tea party. And that was the moment that any claims the St. Louis tea party had of truly standing for conservative values rather than the same old GOP establishment faded away forever. The St. Louis tea party was broken.

    Blunt's primary opponent Chuck Purgason did endorse Hoffman. But that didn't make any difference to the St. Louis tea party leadership. They still supported Roy Bailout Blunt, even as 28 other tea party groups around the state did not (and as, nationally, tea party groups took out Republican incumbents). At yesterday's tea party rally in St. Louis, the St. Louis tea party gave Blunt center stage.

    Lux_Seeker smears me, praises Dana Loesch

    Looks like Lux_Seeker, a Dana-loving troll, wrote about me in his Lux Politics blog.

    I want to be up front about a series of tweets I sent to a, well, how should I put this, this, less than informed young Obama supporter Mr. Gibson. I have found that over the years, having some educational background in philosophy has been very helpful because it helps me to see where ideas come from. I have watched with almost disbelief lately at how political discussions have been either mud slinging sessions or "talking points" slinging sessions. Politics has is no longer about reasoned discussion about the validity of ideas and their effectiveness in government and the private sectors but rather an angry exchange of the same old talking points expressed again and again.
    Lux: Strike 1: While I am an Obama and a Democratic Party supporter, I am NOT less than informed. I am more informed than many on the right.

    So when I get accused of being a spokesperson for conservative talking points I have to laugh. No Mr. Gibson (yes you), my believe system is rooted in much deeper things.


    The truth is that our founding fathers (and no, this has nothing to do with Glen Beck) understood and discussed philosophy. When they founded our nation they understood the influence and importance of having a firm philosophical foundation for our nations constitution. In our current times, this is lost. People are lost in a world of ideas and buzz worlds that have lost any firm philosophical basis even though they are rooted in it. The problem is that those who use them really don't understand the basis for what they are saying. There ideas, being based only in their mind, become a kind of prison because they don't believe there is any firm foundation to root them in other than their feelings. Politics then is based more on the cult of personality and in the US, the Messianic figure of Barack Obama who is certainly no Messiah. We also listen more to entertainers like Oprah Winfrey than to those to have studied the great philosophies of the world and understand their basis.
    Strike 2: He spelled belief system as "believe system." Proof that the Far-Right can't spell right.
    In fact, the Founding Fathers would be sickened by what Glenn Beck is saying.

    Those like Mr. Gibson have been sold a product that like any other product that the television sells based on nothing more than an appeal to the senses. The promise of a world in which pain is minimized and pleasure is maximized. That is classic Peter Singer but of course, My Gibson would rather spend his time attacking people rather than really learning what he is being sold. If you eat a lot of sugar Mr. Gibson, you get diabetes and in time, if that is not taken care of then your organs die. That is what is happening to our nation. Those foundations most importantly the constitution, care dying under the corruptive influence of relativistic poltiical ideologies.

    Believe it or not, people like me are not part of some Republican conspiracy. To be honest, I don't like either party. Tea party is also a term invented by the left. Call me whatever you want but at least I know the basis for my beliefs and you Mr. Gibson, can go on believing the lie but don't be surprised when the bill collector comes to your door and there will be no one to save you, because the nation that gave you freedom and liberty has been "fundamentally transformed".

    Strike 3: This man is making insults about my weight, my political beliefs, and everything having to do with me.

    I bet Dana Loesch will call me a "Liberal Stalker and a Troll who's snooping on me."
