Our latest hate mail (out of eight so far today) is this perplexingly erudite batch of weird insults, from a reader in Phoenix, Arizona, titled “your blog” (whenever I see a title like that in my inbox I know I’m about to be called some names): you sir, are ...
We’re always posting the hate mail we receive, because it’s so often inadvertently funny. But for a change, here’s an email titled “Appreciation” (uh oh, it’s from an Obama supporter) that made my day. I wanted to express how much I appreciate — and how classy it is — ...
Let’s see what’s in our hate mail folder for today, shall we? 1) a Kindle hater (yes, really). 2) two Birth Certificate crackpots, enraged by my mockery of their obsession. 3) a Pat Buchanan fan. 4) a Robert Spencer fan. 5) a Nick Griffin (BNP) fan. 6) two emails from ...

From a reader in Honolulu, Hawaii, possibly located somewhere near Punchbowl in Makiki, here’s a really lovely email from the phony return address “yourmom@lgfsucks.com,” titled (in an apparent attempt to trick me into reading it, even though the return address might be seen as a giveaway): “your excellent service” ... ...
Our post titled “Rebranding Hate in the Age of Obama” triggered several hate mails, including this charmer titled “You lost me,” from a self-identified “white male” in New York who seems to think I’ll be crushed when he doesn’t visit LGF any more. Sorry Charles but I am ...
Every once in a while, a random deranged idiot gets on the Internet and impersonates me, registering accounts in my name, and posting ugly and/or crazy comments at other blogs and websites. Several people have emailed to let me know that someone’s been doing this yesterday and today; one place ...
Since Glenn “Punk” Beck spewed insults at me on his Fox News show today, I’ve received almost two dozen hate mails from his fans. Here’s one, from someone who thinks he’s being clever by using a proxy IP address. I’m leaving all the nastiness intact, so you can savor it ...
Lots of hate mail today, which is always a treat! It was difficult to pick the worst, but because I care so much, dear readers, I’ve selected two winners from among the 17 admirers who shared their thoughts today. (Four letter words left intact for added spiciness.) First, we have ...
Instead of posting any of the dozens of hate mails I’ve received in the past three days, here’s a look at the calm, reasoned discourse in which my critics engage; these quotes come from emails regarding my posts about creationism, Glenn Beck, and G. W. Bush bowing to accept a ...

Wow. I guess I should have known, when YouTube blocked his account, that there are people out there who really really hate James Randi. Case in point: this email from a belligerent Randi-hater, who equates science and rational skepticism with “arrogance” and “book burning.” You might wish to do ...
Anti-vaccination fever caused an LGF reader in Irvine, California to email the following mash note, titled “how much we think we know:” Charles, How do you know there’s no connection between vaccines and autism?? AS far as I know there’s no “official” link between eating deep colored vegetables ...

My post about the GOP’s disastrous decision to defend the “We want Obama to fail” meme brought some hate mail (which I expected) and some support too. First, the drooling haters: aw, you poor baby. Do those mean national parties not agree with everything in your pretty, little head. ...
Sometimes the LGF Inbox gets ... weird. Tonight’s message from the Twilight Zone comes from an AOL customer somewhere in Proxyland, USA, titled: “Over Population.” Yes, that’s two separate words, both capitalized for extra emphasis. Evolution and Creation does not matter. Here is what matters. The world’s population is ...
After my posts on Ann Coulter’s unconscionable defense of a blatantly white supremacist organization, it’s no surprise to find several hate mails in the Inbox this morning.

You know that article mailer page we’ve had for years, that you get to by clicking the little gray ‘@’ button in the row of buttons below each article? It’s finally had a revamp, and now uses Ajax to get the information needed to send an HTML email containing a ...
Gawker.com, the ethics-devoid pseudo-blog that published Sarah Palin’s private email, is now hawking another creepy little invasion of privacy: Sarah Palin’s High-School Grades? But this is what happens when you race to the bottom and sneer at ethical behavior along the way; you get taken in by obvious fakes: Nutroots ...

At Michelle Malkin’s site: The story behind the Palin e-mail hacking. I read though the emails… ALL OF THEM… before I posted, and what I concluded was anticlimactic, there was nothing there, nothing incriminating, nothing that would derail her campaign as I had hoped, all I saw was personal ...
Anyone think that hacking into someone’s private email, then publishing it online, might be just a tad unethical? Apparently not at Gawker. Gawker: Sarah Palin’s Personal Emails. It looks like the real thing, too.
