Well played, right down to the AMF. You were far more polite than I would have been. People like this alleged ‘journ-o-lister’ disgust me betond words.

That's a fact, they do it all the time. They even weave it seamlessly into the cultural meme background. An example: in the new “Three Stooges,” the 20-year-old Sports Illustrated cover supermodel plays a nun who wears a traditional head piece and a rosary around her neck, while swimming in a micro bikini in a slutty way.

Religions are fair game, except for the religion of headchoppers and throatslitters. Then, the brave cultural Marxists are not so brave. That's just the normal dose of poison they offer up every day, nothing unusual at all.

The leftist meme that the Patriot movement is racist is so ingrained in him that he doesn't even see that he is race-baiting.

But you only got half of the meme: The other half is that no one else is racist (just the 'crackers'), something which has been handily refuted by the furor over the Martin shooting case.

From a JM Berger interview with Blogcritics:

Bernard Goldberg has brought up the subject and I will here too. Is there a liberal bias in the media?

The "liberal bias" of the media is the greatest achievement of conservative politics. It's a lie so successful that the media has begun censoring itself in order to "refute" it. This leads to situations like the New York Times allowing itself to be manipulated into propagating outright lies about Iraq's alleged weapons of mass destruction which politically favor a conservative president's agenda, while a Democratic president can be dragged into impeachment for sexual misdemeanors with an intern. If there is any bias in the media, it's a conservative bias because cowardly journalists now feel the need to constantly re-examine and revisit simple facts when those facts displease conservatives. Liberals get no such consideration.

'Nuff said, I think.

I like the way that you slowly and carefully sniffed him out. It was a good trap, and made for a fun read. Have a great weekend!

This will just make his piece even funnier. They just don't get us at all. His questions betray his total ignorance of our side. For example, who ever speaks of the "Patriot movement?" What an out of touch dork. Like they don't get the irony intended by this shirt's imprint:

They live in such a cultural cocoon, that Berger will now report that I am a "self-described right wing extremist."

Based on a t-shirt that lampoons their very cluelessness and lack of humor or irony.

“4) Do you feel that the Patriot movement has historically had a racist component? Do you think it needs to change in this respect? If so, why?”

Well, then...there ya go.

Nice job on the counter, T.M.

LMAO! and good for you. I have read the Turner Diaries and threw it in the garbage can after I read it. I paid a couple of bucks for it, used, and read it out of curiosity. I have all of your books and have read them. They are nothing like the Turner Diaries. Mr. Berger is a moron.

I’ve had a couple of similar episodes of people contacting me about my dragon’s Fury Series and its clear conservative, constitutional bent and trying to walk me into an interview where they could do all sorts of comparisons....I refuse them every time.

Good on ya, Matt! If people at this level are taking interest and seeking to put it down, it means you are having good success and they are feeling compelled to try sensor it...which of course will not work in any case...probably lead to all the more sales, hehehe.

God’s speed and BZ.

I don’t suppose this fool has taken the time to study the instances of cannibalism under totalitarian regimes and wartime/crisis situations. It was very common in the “worker’s paradise” of the USSR in the Ukraine during the collectivization famine, although it also persisted throughout WWII in that area. The Japanese Army devoured POWs as a matter or course during the last few years of WWII. It was used as a political tool of terror (and a way to show contempt for class enemies) during the Cultural Revolution in China. It was present during the Mau Mau rebellion in Kenya (I wonder if O’s Daddy was partial to long pig?). Of course the Tshombe and the Simba’s in Katanga province of the Congo were avid practitioners. In more recent times, a SOF correspondent in Sierra Linne in the late 90’s was killed and a former Delta operator informed me that he was eaten.

If Berger doesn’t think that folks like the the NBPP would not condone or promote cannibalism, at least on a symbolic basis to tie their adherents to them by blood, especially in a crisis situation, he’s a fool.

Journalist, it’s what’s for dinner.

Any chance of getting the email address for Mr. Berger?

Would be fun to shoot him a note : “Heard you’re doing a story on Bracken. Can’t wait to check it out.”
