Corsi Shuns Supremacist Radio Show

Sun, Aug 17, 2008 at 7:43:14 pm PDT

Jerome Corsi canceled his most recent appearance on the neo-Nazi radio show Political Cesspool (after appearing twice before), and the knuckle-draggers are seething.

Political Cesspool?
No way. . .even Troofers have standards.

I was trying to post a comment downstairs and my computer didn't cooperate. Now I log-on and there is a new comment.

I really am getting a complex.

Making nazis seethe is a good thing. Now- if he'd only come to his senses on the troofer issue, he'd be well on his way to being normal....maybe.

Corsi does have a lot of daming information but its going to be swept under the rug. He will be excoriated in the media.

I'm no fan of Corsi, but I did send him an e-mail urging him to cancel. Perhaps it helped.

I think you could claim some credit for that, Charles, at least indirectly.
There's levels of scum, and Corsi has risen one level towards the surface of the pond for shunning these guys (if what you say about it is true, which I'll take your word for.)

12 lifeofthemind  Sun, Aug 17, 2008 7:57:31pm

So he peered into the abyss and decided that there are larger issues at stake. We can still condemn his trooferism and other hateful associations but if we were going to condemn him for appearing on this we in all fairness must take into consideration his withdrawal.

13 Shug  Sun, Aug 17, 2008 8:00:19pm

Corsi has a checkered past.

so which facts in his book in dispute?

14 FrogMarch  Sun, Aug 17, 2008 8:00:38pm

Corsi is a nut job.

John O'Neil and the swiftboat men need to disown him.

re: #10 MrPaulRevere

Steve Gilbert over at Sweetness and Light is all over Corsi too....a good read...‘Truther’ Corsi: Impeach Bush/Cheney: [Link: sweetness-light.com...]

Democrats seeking to discredit Corsi have pointed out that he’s made other interesting comments, such as in a January 29, 2008, interview with a conspiracy-minded radio host when Corsi said the US government wasn’t telling the whole truth about what happened at the World Trade Center during 9/11. Corsi gives much credence to the claim by physicist Steven Jones who claims the towers exploded because of explosives inside the building.

“World Trade Center dust forms the iron sphere that can only be formed at extremely high temperatures,” Corsi said, “jet fuel doesn’t…The government’s explanation of the jet fuel fire is not a sufficient explanation to explain the evidence of these spheres – these microscopic spheres – that Steven Jones has proved existed within the WTC dust.” …

The DNC calls Corsi “too crazy even for Swiftboat liars,”

Nice try DNC liars. The swiftboats guys knew John Kerry all too well.

Did Corsi give a reason for this? Did he just now realize what Political Cesspool is all about despite having been in their company previously?

Trips to the Political Cesspool make me want a shower afterward.

"We are not “white supremacists” as all these gay/liberal liars are saying. We believe the interests of white people come first, and we want what’s best for our people."

See, my understanding was that putting the interests of YOUR RACE, above the rest of your countrymen (spit) is, um...

racism.

La Raza. Black Panthers. James Edwards. All racists. You could say it's the pot calling the kettle... oh, f*** it.

64 lifeofthemind  Sun, Aug 17, 2008 8:38:14pm

re: #37 Mich-again

Is that a form of the "I'm sorry I got caught" apology?

Maybe. For the record I avoid ID threads. Not telling our host what to do but I am free to be bored and focus on my interests. From what little I know I'm willing to presume that my time is to valuable (if only) to spend in a room with Mr Corsi and I do care where my money goes. If he did a right thing for a wrong reason that puts him in with 90% of humanity. Knowing that I try to do better I also hope that others do too. At this point I'd avoid giving the efforts of Obama's people to shift the debate away from what may be true issues about the candidate any oxygen.

So my advice is to ignore Mr Corsi and if anyone asks about the book I'll say I heard about it and Mr Obama having such a thin record and murky background leaves him open to many charges some of which maybe true. It is my hope that reputable investigators will thoroughly examine him and that others than Mr Corsi are doing so. No one should get to be taken seriously in a run for national office until they have been thoroughly vetted by trusted people over a long period of time.

I'm not even gonna go to that site.

Incidentally, did anyone notice that David Freddoso's book seems to have slipped under the radar? Nobody's even mentioned it in the MSM, from what I can tell.

Might be because he's a serious journalist and has documented everything....

The first serious negative biography of Senator Barack Obama casts the Democratic nominee as a fake reformer and a real liberal.

The Case Against Barack Obama, by National Review's David Freddoso, blasts Obama for failing to take on the Chicago machine, for listening to "radical advisors," and for backing "doctrinaire liberal" causes from teachers unions to abortion rights.

It does not, however, compare him to Paris Hilton, or dwell at length on his religion or race - making the substance of The Case Against Barack Obama sound a bit unfamiliar amid a campaign cacophony of hyperbolic web ads, alleged race cards, and viral smears.
(snip)
Freddoso opts largely for a fact-based critique, and writes that the viral and overt smears have allowed Obama to evade substantive criticism.

"Too many of those criticizing Obama have been content merely to slander him," he writes. False rumors about Obama's religion and ancestry have produced, Freddoso writes, "an intellectual laziness among the very people who should be carefully scrutinizing Obama."

Noory's show is looney, but he's not a hater like these skinheads. I doubt you'd ever see him appear on Cesspool program either. He seems like a decent man.

Jones has been around since before the internet, got his start in Austin (surprise). He is pure wackjob and found a way to market his insanity since no one else we dare hire him. Last I heard, he wasn't a skinhead.

re: #45 sngnsgt With all due respect, that PDF format document you linked to is just chock full of inaccuracies and deceptions.
Moreover, the author has a "learn more about me" on the PDF document which doesn't lead you anywhere.
On as issue as sensitive as this, I think you ought to do more research than publish one Paper that claims virtually all docters are ingnorant of aspartme and it's effects, that all major food corporations use it and that it accounts for a great number of cases of epilepsy, MS, Lupus, Diabetes and cancers.
And I find it more than interesting that it blames Donald Rumsfeld himself for the FDA allowing it to be used in such vast quantities.

No, 90% of humanity would not go into a strip club if they saw their neighbors were shopping in the store across the street. You know my refering to his saying he would not appear was a right decision and I agree he did it for a narrow reason. If he had gone we would all have screamed about what a hateful wretch he was. Well he may be still but we need to recalibrate is all. Maybe instead of being a 80 on the fringe scale, with David Duke at 95, Corsi is only a 75. What that means in terms of what we say or do is what we are hashing out here.

Very OT, but I just made a batch of guacamole with Reed avocados instead of the common Haas avocados. My friend has as 750 acre avocado grove wherein 10% is Reed's the rest are Haas. The Reeds don't ship or store well, so are not sold commercially, but they are sold at local avocado growing area farmer's markets.

OMG! The difference is astounding. These are the most buttery and flavorful avocados I've ever had. Used my own tomatoes, serranos, onions and cilantro, so no problemo with salmonella!

If anyone is in the North San Diego county area in the next 30 mins, stop on by.....this (if I do say so myself) is the best guac I've ever had!

George Noory took over from Art Bell. KFI in LA broadcasts the show from 10 pm - 5 am. They both are into UFOs and other (let's be polite) oddities.

Thankfully, the Klan and the NSAWPP are both in serious decline. About the only place you can see them any more is on the Internet.

Avocados are very beneficial to men's health issues. I try to eat them several times a week.

Women, too. Yes the fat content is high, but it's the same fat you get in olive oil, is really high in Omege 3's and has more potassium than a banana!. Spritz a little lime on top and eat with whole wheat crackers, and you can't get a much better snack....male or female.

You are correct. Cross-pollination is required. Also, if you grow sprout avocados indoors, they make a nice house plant, they will not grow fruit without the cross pollination, but the leaves are quite toxic to cats and dogs.

Well since this thread is already off the rails, here's some good news many of you may not have heard about:

1st US drug for Huntington's disease wins approval
WASHINGTON - Federal regulators on Friday cleared the first treatment approved in the United States for Huntington's, a rare inherited disease that causes uncontrolled movements, deterioration of mental abilities and, ultimately, death.

The medication, called Xenazine, will not cure the condition and can have potentially serious side effects, such as raising the risk of suicidal behavior. However, it provides relief for a major disabling symptom of Huntington's: the jerky, involuntary movements known by the medical term chorea and force many patients to live as shut-ins.

"A lot of patients won't go out because they are embarrassed by those movements," said Dr. Frederick J. Marshall, a University of Rochester Medical Center neurologist who led the clinical study that provided evidence of the drug's effectiveness. "Suppressing those movements means a lot to people with Huntington's disease."

I suspect Ward that they protect him for two reasons: one, regrettably, Pukehanan is a "draw" - a lot of folks don't really know who he is and he at least appears to be an intellectual.
The second is because for Townhall to reject him would be tantamount to them acknowledging that they had allowed a knowing Anit-Semitic son of a bitch at their fourum several times in the past and thus were complicit or stupid and I dibs, I'm afraid,
I have to say it, complicit.

145 tyree  Sun, Aug 17, 2008 10:29:31pm

The larger issue is why Corsi is getting any press at all. If the man is a troofer, then he has no credibility, and should be ignored by real journalists. Instead the liberal media keeps spouting off about his book because he is an easy target. This allows them to ignore the more important issues that are raised by serious authors like the National Review's David Freddoso.
I read a very good essay a decade ago about the pro-life movement and the way their "spokesmen" were essentially chosen by the MSM, to the detriment of the movement and the actual leaders, who could never get airtime. Haven't we all wondered why Pat Buchanan gets so much time in front of the camera?

146 Lynn B.  Sun, Aug 17, 2008 10:46:11pm

And then there are these anti-McCain articles by Corsi at WND (where he's a regular columnist) ...

McCain fortune traced to organized crime
Mob figures later implicated in Arizona savings and loan scandal

John McCain funded by Soros since 2001
Candidate's Reform Institute also accepted funds from Teresa Kerry

Group tied to al-Qaida backs McCain for prez

So he doesn't like McCain and he hates Obama. Who's his candidate? He gave up a shot himself on the Constitution Party ticket, but he's endorsing their candidate, Florida pastor/political activist Charles O. “Chuck” Baldwin.

148 quickjustice  Mon, Aug 18, 2008 11:45:23am

re: #47 Charles

Confession: I was introduced socially to Corsi as a "conservative who is writing an expose on Obama". I chatted with him, in a group setting, for about an hour. He spent most of the time talking about how much scholarship and hard work had gone into this book. He said he had footnoted it extensively precisely to enable everyone to check on his claims. He said that exposing the truth, and reporting facts with verifiable transparency and accuracy, would be devastating to the Obama campaign.

I had no idea he was a "truther" or had associated with neo-Nazis. (I lost friends and neighbors in the Twin Towers on 9/11. I also have Jewish family, including Holocaust survivors). Based upon Charles's research, I e-mailed Corsi my concerns. With hindsight, I think Corsi a hustler and opportunist looking to make a buck off the political campaign. I heard nothing from him suggesting that he was a conspiracy theorist or neo-Nazi sympathizer. I think he attempts to exploit and profit from controversy, whether it's 9/11 conspiracy or the current political campaign. He's not alone.

I don't think I flatter him to say this. I think he's gotten too close to some fringe conspiracy theorists and neo-Nazis. I've told him as much. I'm not taking credit for what's happened. I am saying that Corsi is aware of what Charles has uncovered about him. If he's changing his behavior, I'd say that demonstrates common sense.

149 Charles  Mon, Aug 18, 2008 12:21:22pm

re: #149 Charles

I understand that you're not the "sole source" for these revelations! I commend your integrity nonetheless.

151 Zimriel  Mon, Aug 18, 2008 5:42:08pm

That would be interesting if Corsi is reacting to what conservatives think of him. It's possible that he's lived in a "cocoon", if I may borrow that cliche, of like-minded far-right ... uh... kooks.

Corsi's association with the Constitution Party and his books on the "North American Union" are equally interesting. The NAU is a classic conspiracy theory, with a lot of believers among the "posse comitatus" set, which no-one seems to be taking as seriously as the Truther conspiracy.

Corsi reminds me of Bat Yeor.

Corsi wrote one of the definitive anti-Kerry books, and Bat Yeor introduced many of us to the "dhimmitude" concept. But then Corsi started talk of a union with Mexico; Bat Yeor, for her part, talks about a union with the Maghreb ("eurabia"). Bat Yeor may be a fine scholar of the dhimmi class but that doesn't necessarily make her a good reporter of modern Europe.

How is Corsi different from Bat Yeor?
