Harvard University Professor Alan Dershowitz is one of the most knowledgeable and unapologetic defenders of Israel among American academics. This has unfortunately opened him to unfair and intellectually dishonest attacks from his fellow liberals.
In answering a recent attack by Max Blumenthal, formerly of Media Matters for America (MMfA), Prof. Dershowitz said, “Let me tell you, Max Blumenthal and Media Matters will be singlehandedly responsible for (Obama) losing this election. They (the Democrats) cannot win the election and keep this affiliation with them.”
I agree with Prof. Dershowitz, though obviously I think there are many, many more reasons why President Obama should lose this election (trillions, if you consider his latest budget proposal).
Prof. Dershowitz is right to draw attention to MMfA in particular. As Big Journalism points out: “Media Matters has been condemned by the Simon Wiesenthal Center for their continued use of an antisemitic slur; their own allies have even thrown them under the bus for antisemitism.”
This just shows that Americans of all political stripes are awakened to the dangers of unethical journalists and media organizations that deceive their audiences and use bullying tactics to unfairly target political opponents.

I still remember a FReep we did of Brock when he was hawking his book “Blinded by the Right” in Dee Cee.
The book signing/meeting event was at a bar (I can’t remember the name) that was attended by the likes of John Dingell, Barney Frank, Patsy Schroeder, Pakistani Lanny Davis...
I still remember bmwcyle holding Raoul’s sign that said “if Osama was a piece of @ss, Clinton would have nailed him!”
And I remember Raoul’s chant “Two steps down: Socially and morally”.
My own chant was: “David Brock: Were you lying then or are you lying now?”
That was one stellar FReep. I captured it on my camcorder. ‘Pod.
And Hillary creeped into the back door.
Thank you!!
My pleasure.
‘Pod, you folks in the DC Chapter were the best!
Many fond memories of White House freeps in ‘99 and ‘00.
It is hard to imagine, as bad as Clinton was, Obama and Krew are so much worse.
O Lord, please protect America and its people!
