Can they just fire her?

Dos dis dos dat

hey, she surrendered... which shows that she isn't totally crazy.

Geepers was all over this yesterday.

This woman is a lunatic!

That one belongs in the psycho ward.

Here's my comment from the previous thread.

This woman is deranged. It truly bothers me that she 1) teaches psychology at a university and 2) contributes to their "CogBlog" in such a way that belies her inner demons.

Totally. Completely. Whacko.

In a straightjacket.

A psychology professor, no less.

Leftists are evil.

We get results!

If she's to be believed, it looks like Ms. Frisch has resigned from her post at UofA. Her blog has a message that's intended to "de-escalate" the mess she's made. But she's still delusional:

"In hindsight, the things I wrote were over the line of nastiness. I apologize to Mr. Goldstein."

"Over the line of nastiness"!?!?!

Whatever.

From her blog:

white flag
I wrote some inflammatory comments at a blog by a guy named Jeff Goldstein called protein wisdom that infuriated many bloggers and commenters. Many of these bloggers emailed my boss at the University of Arizona to tell on me.

In hindsight, the things I wrote were over the line of nastiness. I apologize to Mr. Goldstein.

I have resigned from the University of Arizona so there is no need for other enraged people to write to administrators there.

Some blogs have posted comments that I perceive to be physically threatening. I have contacted the FBI and the Pajamas Media staff to determine how to proceed with this aspect of this unbelievable experience.

My intention in this post is to de-escalate the situation. The comments that started this all were nasty, not threatening. But I feel very threatened by the response.

Jeff - I lost my job. You won. Could you call off the troops?

As J.D. said in #4, Geepers was all over this yesterday and IIRC, was writing an e-mail to the Univeristy yesterday.
Geeps, if you're around, did you ever get an answer from the U of Arizona?
Anyone got her e-mail addy or better yet the e-mail addy of the President of the University or the Chairperson of her department?
And if Protein Wisdom is under DOS attack, has anyone figured out if the attack originated with the Universities computer library?

She's a complete maniac, and when I was researching this story yesterday -- after someone posted about it on an earlier thread -- I saw that she has a history of making threats, such as this:

At [Link: left2right.typepad.com...]

One day, some cheeky blogger is going to be offed by a psychopathic blogger. Will it be a scuffle@left2right? idunno. i hope to hell it ain't me, i gotta tell ya. but i feel kind of guilty for not blowing myself up on the steps of the lincoln memorial when i lived in d.c.

I wonder if she's single. Maybe we could set her up with Christian Taylor Briggs... the Saddam Human Shield turned Green Party Peace Activist who battered an English musician into a coma.

And then lock the two of them up where they will be no danger to others.

Charles, I'm glad you posted on this! I've just been following this story on other blogs, and checked back into LGF, just to see what was up! It's a horrifying story!

I'm glad this woman resigned---but, my G-d, the crust of her! She threatens Jeff's child, then whines that others have been "physically threatening" her. She is now going to try and portray herself as the hapless victim, and hope that her apology will let her off the hook, and that we'll all just forget about this, and let her go on her crazy way.

I do hope the police are looking into this. . .

And, as I've said before---this woman is a professor of psychiatry, which just goes to show how much you can trust 'em!

Protein Wisdon is still down; Anyone know the topic of the thread that sent her over the edge?

She says she's resigned. Whatever.

Some blogs have posted comments that I perceive to be physically threatening. I have contacted the FBI and the Pajamas Media staff to determine how to proceed with this aspect of this unbelievable experience.

Aah, so it doesn't feel so good to be threatened. Who knew?

I have resigned from the University of Arizona so there is no need for other enraged people to write to administrators there.

#9 zulubaby

Not to paint with a broad brush, but sometimes they're the ones with the biggest problems. I seem to recall Amalie saying something about being stalked by a...you guessed it...psychiatrist.

So she resigns from U of A. And then what- private practice? Can you imagine seeking out a psychologist and ending up with this lunatic? Scary world out there.

JWM

I'm very skeptical of the claim that she "resigned." I'd wait for confirmation of her claim.

#12 mj

Resignation would be one of those lesser of two evils choices, I imagine.

The comments that started this all were nasty, not threatening.

She really is insane.

Out of curiosity: Just what did Jeff Goldstein write that unhinged Dr. Frisch so completely? Anybody have a link?

I attended the U of A and never ran into a prof so whacked. Although there were a lot of left-winger California imports on the roster at the time--probably still are, especially in the "liberal" arts.

Futher down on its' blog

fair thee well
I went to the Oregon Country Fair today, a huge hippie festival in Veneta, Oregon, a couple of miles west of the tie-dye capital of the country,Eugene, OR. Eugene is Berkelier than Berkeley itself and the Country Fair is Berkelier than Eugene.

A writer trying to cature the OCF in words is like a painter trying to capture the Grand Canyon in a painting - it is utterly impossible but utterly irresistable to try.

Tomorrow, maybe, I will try to describe for you the utter magic of the Oregon Country Fair - the glorious melding of capitalism (crafts, food), community (energy, healing, library) and arts (music, jesters, jokers) - a counterculture festival that is truly unique. Some people take their kids to dizzykneeland - but truly, if you wanted to take your kids to the ultimate amusement park, you'd take 'em to the OCF.

More later.

Can you say 'mother/father goddess'? Sure you can.
/MrR

Deborah Frisch sounds like she belongs to the KKK.
"boy"

hmmm - Ms. Frisch is so far left she's coming around to the right. I'd also make a guess that she adores Ward Churchill. I detect the same sort of--um---style there.

Give your pathetic progeny (I sure hope that mofo got good genes from his mama!) a big fat tongue-filled kiss from me! LOTS AND LOTS OF SALIVA from Auntie MOONBAT, if you don’t mind!

Somehow, Jeffy boy, I think you get off on the possibility of Frenching your pathetic progeny, even if it is a boy. You seem like a VERY, VERY sick mofo to me, bro.

--Ms. Frisch

#25 Midwestprof

Just what did Jeff Goldstein write that unhinged Dr. Frisch so completely? Anybody have a link?

It wouldn't do any good, because the site's being DDOSed.

Jeff - I lost my job. You won. Could you call off the troops?

Oh so she lost her job and she wants to forget all about it now? I wanna go back to incense and peppermints Jeff! So sorry about the death threats Jeff!

Earth2moonbat,

Not to paint with a broad brush, but sometimes they're the ones with the biggest problems.

Evidently!

I think she's a loser. There's no comments in her blog. Just a loney old hippie living in the past... Trolls are all the same. Just trying to get attention. In her case, she got it! HA!

#17 Kilgore Trout

(Ah, the mystical #17!) Yes, what was the topic that finally sent this woman around the bend? (Of course, she's probably been there for years, and the topic wouldn't really matter---still, it'd be interesting to know.)

Psychologist, heal thyself.

You see, this is all done out of love. The progressives want Jeff to see the light - and are willing to go that extra step to make sure that Jeff realizes the follies of his ways in supporting the BushitleralliburtonRove Co conspiracy theory to keep you poor, stupid, send minorities into the military, bring back the draft, kill Iraqi kids and steal all the oil. Dontcha know? /is it even necessary?

What a pathetic display by the Left, and of course they'll try and turn it around to make Jeff out to be the bad guy.

Jeff had it right - when he's done with Frisch, her name will be treated as a verb.

Kinda like Fisk. Rare company. Indeed. Heh^tm

Read what Deb Frisch posted on her blog the day after 7/7/05:

we are all qaeda today
A bit of googling reveals that many in the blogosphere reacted to the London subway bombing with a message of solidarity:

We are all Britons, today.
We are all Britons, today.

One earnest blogger writes:

As we join most in the blogosphere today in expressing our anger at the Islamofascists responsible for the cowardly acts that killed and injured so many Britons, we also express our hope that the appeasers of Islamic terror will soon recognize that we are in a war for the survival of our civilization, and that the war is against Islamofascism.

I was waiting for some moron to play the "coward" card. You can call terrorists a lot of nasty things, but "coward" isn't one of them.

Islamofascists. I like it. Kissing cousins of christofascists like Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Rove and DeLay and judeofascists like Zackheim and Sharon.

I am not happy that more widows, widowers and amputees were created yesterday. I don’t think the people riding the London subway yesterday morning deserved to be blown up because of the war crimes committed by George Bush and condoned by Tony Blair.

But I am glad that someone said phuque you to bush, blair and the other hombres who represent (sic) the G-8 nations.

I will try to describe for you the utter magic of the Oregon Country Fair - the glorious melding of capitalism (crafts, food)

The dolt flunks economics. It isn't capitalism if there isn't a significant investment in capital equipment involved. I think the idiot doesn't understand the difference between capitalism and free enterprise (both of which lefty loonies are supposed to despise).

Please read this:

psychologist, analyze thyself

From her comments:
Just my two cents: The pathetic jeffy boy goldstein plays the jew card 24/7. Didn’t you notice?

THIS IS A CESSPOOL! GET OUT WHILE YOU CAN!

JEFF! DRINK THE KOOLAID AND LET YOUR WIFE RAISE THE little Goldstein Junior!

I find it extremely revealing though not unsurprising that Professor Frisch engaged in hurling vindictive stereotypes of Jeff's religion. Today's Left- where antisemitism is a way of life.

Deborah Frisch, psychology professor patient at the University of Arizona...

sick twisted bitch.

The leftists are losing it, they are showing their TRUE face before getting in full control of power.

Bad mistake, babies. We can see you know.

Very funny that this psycho now plays the victim role, very funny.

It has been shown by several surveys that a very large proportion of people who study psychology do so because of seeking answers to their own problems.

Here we have a shining example.

Ms. Frisch, if you read this, you need help. They have very good medications these days. Again, you need help.

Here are the key lines from Deb's 7/8/05 post:

we are all qaeda today

Islamofascists. I like it. Kissing cousins of christofascists like Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Rove and DeLay and judeofascists like Zackheim and Sharon.

I am glad that someone said phuque you to bush, blair and the other hombres who represent (sic) the G-8 nations.

10 to 1 she doesn't even get investigated by the University.

Has the FBI been notified?

Have the guys with the jackets with the buttons on the back been notified?

Regarding her supposed resignation; I agree with Charles. Be skeptical.
Personally, I think she's lying. That's what leftists do. They lie.

From one of Frisch's own posts "Support the Dupes" June 16, 2006.

given the fact that anyone with a quarter of a brain knows this war was about oil, not "spreddin' freedumb," shouldn't those bumper stickers on the butts of SUV's say "support our dupes?"

I'd say a quarter brain is spot on. Left hemisphere, of course!

Exercising the damnable trait of leftists everywhere-play"The Culture Of Victimhood'angle.There is nothing in the world for these people for which their own actions are the fault of where they find themselves.There is always someone or something somewhere that "really holds"the responsibility.From this obviously deranged woman (A psych prof...no surprise-the only reason people enter that field is to try to find out what their own f-ups are) to the Pali's,the Culture Of Victimhood has permiated the worlds societies to the detriment of us all.I am glad to see that she had enough sense left in that rattled brain to resign,although I suspect that she was offered that course of action as a "death with honor" escape route by the University.

Wretchard at The Belmont Club shows us an example of courage:

Jose Abad Santos was 56 years old in 1942, a vigorous age, and we meet him far from the capital of Manila "traveling somewhere around Carcar, Cebu, with his son, Jose Jr., Colonel Valeriano of the Philippine Constabulary, and some enlisted men". This incident is extremely suggestive. Rather than wait in Manila to meet and negotiate with the Japanese, the Chief Justice is encountered doing the rounds in uncaptured territory, "unaware that the enemy had landed in the vicinity". Given his military entourage; the fact his capture occurred before Wainright's final surrender in Corregidor, and Cebu's proximity to Mindanao I think probability is that Abad Santos was setting up resistance cells when he was surprised by the Japanese.

The Japanese must have understood this immediately. "For almost 20 days, he was subjected to grueling and mortifying inquisition. The exact nature of the investigation is still shrouded in secrecy." There is evidence that the Japanese were primarily interested in operational intelligence, rather than political cooperation, from Abad Santos. "Previously, however, he had been asked to contact General Roxas somewhere in Mindanao who up to that time had not yet surrendered. In all probability, the Japanese wanted him to induce General Roxas to surrender."

Probably the only thing that kept the Japanese from killing and torturing Abad Santos outright was his possible utility as a collaborationist figurehead. Abad Santos knew it and played the card immediately by identifying himself as the Chief Justice. It kept him alive for three weeks. Why then did the Japanese decide to shoot him on the day after Corregidor surrendered? The only answer I can come up with is that the Japanese had found other high ranking Filipinos willing to serve in their puppet government, who had probably waited until the final denouement before throwing in with Nippon. Once a set of collaborators had been found, Abad Santos's potential political utility was at and. He was simply an operational prisoner and doomed.

Meanwhile, the Democrats continue to show us continuing examples of their treasonous behavior.

She's a 9/11 conspiracy theorist as well. That says enough for me.

Hey bitch,saying things about killing someone's child cannot be undone by saying "just kidding".

You should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law and serve your sentense in a Turkish jail.

Fantasizing that she is Al-Queda---sad indeed.

911 & JFK

... One of the strangest anomalies is a picture from the Plane Site video showing just how tiny the hole in the Pentagon was that was allegedly produced by a 757. There’s one shot that is really shocking – you see the hole punched in the wall at the Pentagon and then you can see inside the Pentagon into an adjacent room that is still intact. There’s a book open on a stool that is not singed or burned – it looks perfectly normal. How could a 757 with 8000 gallons of jet fuel crash into a building and not have any effect on a book a few feet away from impact?

In thinking about whether there is reason to be suspicious of the standard story, the thing that I find most interesting is the huge difference in attention paid to the different events. Think about how much you’ve seen and read about the collapse of the towers and how little you’ve seen and read about the crash at the Pentagon. Shouldn’t there be some media curiosity about how security at the PENTAGON was breached almost an hour after the first plane crashed into the WTC? Shouldn’t there be some curiosity about how such a big plane full of fuel caused such little damage?

Her choo-choo went around the bend a long time ago.

Were these nasty notes sent as email directly to Jeff, or posted as public comments?

Just wondering...

Typical liberal,she's now claiming she's the victim.

Cry me a river, you sick bitch.

I watched this yesterday on P.W before it crashed.

She was very defiant,a lot of "do your worst,I'm not afraid of you."

Still waiting for some words of wisdom (NOT!) from you, Jeffy boy!

Your little boot-lickers have had their say. What say you, king dingbat?!

Wanna escalate this game. Fine wit me.

Bring it on, hombre.

Bring it on.

It was brought,how you feeling,bitch?

Deborah Frisch's final exam

Deborah Frisch
Adjunct Professor of Psychology
Psychology of Risk Assessment & Decisionmaking
Final Exam

You have one hour to complete this exam. Please mark your answers cleanly with either a #2 pencil or a mixture of human blood and animal feces.

1) A rational actor is offered one of two investment schemes. The first pays 5% profit per year with no risk. The second pays 20% per year with a 5% risk of catastrophic loss each year. Which investment scheme should a rational actor choose?

a) the low-profit, no-risk scheme

b) the high-risk, high-profit scheme

c) it depends upon the marginal utility the actor assigns to the higher profit

d) sinister lobsters from the dark dimension are gnawing through my eardrums

2) Two rational actors are involved in a business dispute. Failure on either's part to compromise will result in a loss. However, compromising too much will result in suboptimal results for each. What strategy should each actor choose?

a) Both should seek compromise, to avoid a loss

b) Both should seek to maximize personal optimal gain, even though this risks a loss

c) Both should seek tit-for-tat compromise and reassurance from the other, to insure maximum gain while limiting the risk of total loss

d) Sometimes I dream about Walt Disney's cryonically frozen head kissing me on my no-no special place while Goofy and Pluto restrain me with leather straps

3) You disagree with another professor who maintains an online blog. What is the highest-reward, lowest-risk strategy for dealing with such a person?

a) Engage him in substantive discourse to prove he's wrong

b) Adopt a flippant tone while glibly tweaking him

c) Expose his errors on your own blog in hopes that he can be made to understand his errors

d) Have you ever noticed that K-Mart sells shotguns, shovels, and quicklime, all in one place? People rip on K-Mart, but really, you can't beat the convenience, folks.

4) You strongly suspect your pinkies have been replaced by animatronic spy-modules by cybernetic puppet-creatures controlled by the evil aliens known as the "Rhodians." These false finger-probes report your every move to the Rhodian StarMasters, and have been keeping tabs on you since a dozen of their rape-robots repeatedly violated you during your "missing years." As a rational actor, do you...?

a) Cut off your pinkies to prove they're insectlike cyber-implants, no matter what your FUCKING QUACK RACIST ASSHOLE OF A SHRINK might think

b) Go about your daily life as normal, but never say something you wouldn't want the Rhodians to hear unless your hands are submerged in sink or bathwater, in order to block the transmissions (Note: this may require bathing/hand-washing up to 40 times per day)

c) Strangle your neighbor's cat. Mr. Frisky's probably in on it too. Can't be too careful.

d) Ohgodchrist. They're watching. They're watching RIGHT NOW. They're all... they're all Rhodians! Everyfuckingone of them!

Put your pencils down.

I SAID PUT YOUR FUCKING PENCILS DOWN OR I'LL VIOLATE YOUR CHILDREN!

I'm sorry... my pinkies made me say that.

NOW she's sorry - sick, twisted hippie who cannot stand to lose the idealogical argument so badly that she threatens the life of an innocent child. I hope the FBI gets involved (they should). I hope the cable news shows and talk radio don't let this drop until cretin is safely straight-jacketed.

What a POS.

Well, if Ms. Frisch did resign, at least the poor girl has revealed her qualifications for a bright and shiny future within the Democrat party!

Perhaps Ms. Frisch can join mama moonbat on tour, or hook up with Howard Dean?

#65 Earth2Moonbat

Good point; is she behind the current attack, or does she know who is?

She's lucky Jeff isn't as psychotic as she is.

61 Northpaw

She is simply evil.

We tend to think that evil and crazy are two different things, because we used to believe in possion by demons. Reality is that almost no one is so crazy that they don't have some element of free will. The border between crazy and evil is unmarked, and isn't really a line, it's more like a zone. Like the "line" between where a warm climate gives way to a cold climate.

In the Blackfive comment tread,

Comment below written by: Jeff G

My host still can't get me up and running. So I'm getting a new host. Could be a few days before I'm back online.

Whereas, if its any consolation, Deb Frisch will be a crazy, lying, and unemployable beast for the rest of her life. Hopefully in a hair net.

Ah. Soothing, soothing perspective!

Must be a hell of a DOS attack (or the web host doesn't know how to deal with it).

Charles! Maybe you can contact Jeff and see if you can suggest ways to get him out of this mess, if you haven't already.

72 TalkinKamel

She's not admitting it, and it's possible that it's unrelated, but if I had to bet money...

Has anyone fopund this yet?...
A Psychologist's Defense of Ward Churchill
By DEBORAH FRISCH

Churchill's crime was noting that the 911 victims in particular and Americans in general were not innocent lambs. This is worse than Susan Sontag's crime ­ noting that the 911 terrorists weren't "cowards." But it's just as true.

Since he's well within his first amendment rights, Churchill's attackers are questioning his academic credentials. He's been forced to prove that he's a genuine native American.

Social psychologists, philsophers and sociologists should be defending Churchill for his brilliant, but veiled reference to Arendt, Milgram and Zimbardo. But the academic social science left has been lukewarm at best to Churchill.

The cycle of dehumanization continues.

Frisch now says she has “resigned” from the University of Arizona,

The Bu$hitler Thecon Regime's Digital Brownshirts have silenced another Peaceful Progressive voice.

(Anybody want to go over to her blog and post that, verbatim, and see if she takes it unironically?)

How sad. This woman doesn't sound particularly bright---this is the kind of female mediocrity that is being hired en masse in the name of employment equity to replace retiring baby boomer profs. A very similar young woman on my dissertation jury asked me to justify sample sizes for chi-square analyses, if that means anything to some people here.

She's lucky Jeff isn't as psychotic as she is.

LOL!

fopund = found
(preview is not my friend)

#76 Earth2Moonbat

Yeah, yeah, I know. . . me too; If I had to bet money. . .

It would certainly explain why she was so cocky earlier with all her "Bring it on!" talk; maybe she was expecting more back-up than she got. Or, as you said, it might be unrelated. Still. . .

She has been a key supporter of Ward Churchill, as seen at Counterpunch:

[Link: www.counterpunch.org...]

... Churchill is under fire, literally and metaphorically for stringing together 15 letters:

LITTLE EICHMANNS...

Actually, the analogy is extremely apt and not outrageous at all...

I agree with Churchill that America was not an "innocent victim" on 911. I'm tempted to agree that "titans" of finance are more guilty than the rest of us...

We're all little Eichmanns. Only the far left is willing to admit it.

Churchill's crime was noting that the 911 victims in particular and Americans in general were not innocent lambs...

Since he's well within his first amendment rights, Churchill's attackers are questioning his academic credentials. He's been forced to prove that he's a genuine native American.

Social psychologists, philsophers and sociologists should be defending Churchill...

The cycle of dehumanization continues.

[Deborah Frisch, Ph. D., is a psychologist and Former director, of Decision, Risk and Management Sciences Program at the National Science Foundation.]

#80 killgore trout

Ooops, we crossed paths.
Great minds think alike.

#77 TotallySirius

Jeff's hosting service should be able to determine that. That would be an interesting thing to know.

Color me skeptical over her claims that she's resigned.

Her apology is anything but. She doesn't recognize what she did was not only wrong, but illegal - threatening a 2-year old? Are you kidding me?

She should be worried about whether she'll ever get another job in academia (or anywhere else) before this is over.

Can you imagine the interview process?

Interviewer: Can you explain why you left your last job?
Frisch: Personal reasons.

Interviewer: I did some research and see you threatened a 2-year old. Is this true?

Frisch: *red faced* Ummm, there were extenuating circumstances...

Interviewer: Well, thanks for coming in. (If this was the Evergreen College in Wa., she'd get the job in a heartbeat). Most everywhere else, she'd be shown the door - right into a padded room.

She comes off almost as psychotic as Howard Dean.  Almost.

These are the "caring" members of society -- dead troops are props to attack GWB, children are open season...

I just knew it! Churchill sycophants have a certain--- whiff.

Found her pic! Has anyone posted this yet?

[Link: www.xicalangopress.com...]

It won't be long until one of these looney fucks actually collaborates with the enemy and assists them in killing Americans. Most of these assholes either were pretend wannabe revolutionaries in the 60s (Weather Underground, et al) or simply their young admirers.

And for those who don't think this possible, consider this: this bitch already expressed a desire to self-detonate in DC. She also threatens children, like the Islamist scum who slaughtered a school full in Beslan.

Come to think of it, she acts just like a Palestinian too. She boasts that she'll take all and sundry in a fight, but as soon as someone bloodies her nose she wants a "de-escalation".

Fuck this skank. Keep the pressure on her. Boots to the neck.

Frisch,

Slag off, sick bag. You went over the line and deserve to rot in jail for a while. Threatening kids is verboten and you deserve every peice of emotional misery that comes your way

#71 FrogMarch

at least the poor girl has revealed her qualifications for a bright and shiny future within the Democrat party!

I know you are NOT sarcastic there, but I want to add that what you say IS literally true: a party that accepts as its leaders

- someone who has killed a girl
- a traitor who discussed with NV Army Officers HOW TO win the war against America

is a typical subversive party in which the collective strength is created by multiple and RECIPROCAL ransom.

The same party honors at its national convention a frigging liar and a commie like Michael Moore.

The same party has elected as member of Congress a criminal who punch COPS and (at least for the first 24 hours) says it was the right thing to do.

This is no longer a party, it's a frigging GANG.

She has a future there, every gang has its special TRIALS to admit new members...she passed it.

I wish I was surprised she taught at university.

I checked out the University of Arizona's Website for its psychology department. Apparently Deborah Frisch is an adjunct professor there. This means that she probably only works part time and might have another position somewhere else. Resigning from an adjunct position, as she apparently did, is no big deal. It's like quitting a second job.

... Or could that possibly be a different Deborah Frisch?

That's not the scary part... Look at where she's worked!

"Deborah Frisch, Ph. D., is a psychologist and Former director, of Decision, Risk and Management Sciences Program at the National Science Foundation."

National Science Foundation?!? No wonder she wants this all to go away just by resigning... a little more publicity and she'll become poison to her leftist causes and the REAL funding will dry up.

#85 TalkinKamel

It would certainly explain why she was so cocky earlier with all her "Bring it on!" talk; maybe she was expecting more back-up than she got.

And didn't expect bigger blogs like LGF to step in. She can DDOS Jeff's site, but the cat's out of the bag.

Is this her?

A Psychologist's Defense of Ward Churchill

By DEBORAH FRISCH

#92

Are you sure that is her photo? That person doesn't have a Ph.D. Maybe someone with the same name?

would i be lowering myself to her level, if i invited her to go suck a big hairy.

Deborah Frisch grew up in a family where appreciation for other languages and cultures was shared like salsa and chips. After earning her Masters in Teaching ESL in New York, she founded and directed Escuela Xicalango, for 25 years the top language school in Cancún, Mexico. She’s had fun playing language games with learners from five to seventy-five, in New York, California, Mexico and throughout Latin America. At present she’s dividing her efforts between a ¡BINGLéS! workbook with additional games and activities, ¡Lotería! Bingo for Learning Spanish and junior versions of both games. Deborah lives with her multilingual family, dog and cockatiels in Berkeley, CA.

It shows a P.O. Box in Berkeley.

#100 Earth2Moonbat

Heh, heh, heh. . .

Oops. Chicken Kiev got there first.

The cognitive dissonance this bitch is suffering from is amazing:

We're all little Eichmanns. Only the far left is willing to admit it.

Churchill's crime was noting that the 911 victims in particular and Americans in general were not innocent lambs...

The cycle of dehumanization continues.

Yeah, nothing is more dehumanizing than to be compared to a Nazi commandant.

Before this war is over, we're going to need to start taking members of our own "intelligentsia" like this to trial.

Go ahead, skank, go me a "little Beria" now

#82 Moe Katz

A very similar young woman on my dissertation jury asked me to justify sample sizes for chi-square analyses, if that means anything to some people here.

I have no idea what that means,but I know the point you are making.

The one I got was "Capitalism is Capitalism, isn't it?"

The key to academic sucess is to insert the term "Queer","Feminist" or "Marxist",then it's all smiles,hugs and approving nods.

CHARLES - please ignore my e-mail referenced in #53.

#95 Poitiers-Lepanto

You are correct. I wasn't being sarcastic.
and---bingo to what you posted! The Democrat party is a pack of punks.

Update: Deborah Frisch continues stalking my site, sending trackbacks to multiple posts to link to ad hominem attacks. While I appreciate the boost to my TTLB Ecosystem link score, I'm not giving the [rhymes with witch] access to my site. Hence, she is the first and only person whose trackbacks I am routinely deleting from my site. (After her offensive emails, I've also added her to my email filter blocks.)

Apparently her real profession is full-time stalker.

Chicken Kiev

Deborah Frisch, M.A.Ed.

Don't think that's the one.

realwest:

And if Protein Wisdom is under DOS attack, has anyone figured out if the attack originated with the Universities computer library?

This is the crux of the matter for me. Frisch has made mud of her own name in the past 48 hours, but this DOS attack suggests some major connivance. I think Jeff said she was writing from Eugene, OR, but I don't know what the deal is.

The moonbats are now presented with a moment of truth. They know this is happening, so watch what they say. If they do not explicitly condemn this woman's attacks on Jeff and his little boy, then you may be sure of what they are.

#46 mingjayo

I suspect that she was offered that course of action as a "death with honor" escape route by the University.

There is no doubt in my mind that the University had to have some prior history with Ms. Frisch to have taken this action so soon.

She has to have already been a problem to them.

#109 12th Imam(hidden)

The key to academic sucess is to insert the term "Queer","Feminist" or "Marxist",then it's all smiles,hugs and approving nods.

Or muslim. Especially muslim, these days.

HA! I DOUBT that she actually RESIGNED. And, even if she did resign, now is the time to send a barrage of emails and calls to her university to protest what she did. These colleges have to be held accountable for hiring the nutcase moonbats that have permeated our classrooms and lecture halls. I'm sending a copy of this to O'Reilly and Hannity as well.

DON'T ANYBODY back off now! Write and call the university and make SURE this sick broad really is OUT!

It won't be long until one of these looney fucks actually collaborates with the enemy and assists them in killing Americans

Already happened.

I'm talking about today's enemy. And I'm not talking about our soldiers, sailors and airmen--I'm talking about civilians. Sooner or later one of these disaffected leftist professors is going to sneak some AQ across the border [and doesn't anyone find it strange that the only Spanish word this skank seems to know is HOMBRE] house them, feed them, train them and they'll blow up a school in Phoenix or something.

Hell, Ward Churchill's publicity photo is him lovingly cradling a fucking AK--real tough, Chief! How does it feel to be just like Bin Laden? You're a BIG MAN.

Better to get the tribunals and gallows in place now, rather than be scramble to catch up when it happens.

Deb's unhinged, and a Fox news story waiting to happen.

Heh, we're all bumping heads this morning; RC neo-Jew picked it up too. The more the merrier.

She did not "lose' her job.

She forfeited it.

Main Entry: forfeit
Function: transitive verb
1 : to lose or lose the right to especially by some error, offense, or crime
2 : to subject to confiscation as a forfeit; also : ABANDON, GIVE UP

They're coming to take me away, ha-haaa.
They're coming to take me away, ho-ho, hee-hee, ha-haaa.
To the funny farm, where life is beautiful all the time and I'll be happy
to see those nice young men in their clean white coats and they're coming
to take me away, ha-haaa!
To the happy home, with trees and flowers and chirping birds and basket
weavers who sit and smile and twiddle their thumbs and toes and they're
coming to take me away, ha-haa!
To the funny farm, where life is beautiful all the time...

It's too bad that a Matrix-type technology does not exist at this time.

It would be really and truly neat if these barking moonbats could be plugged in and forced to experience what the world would really be like if their wish for our defeat had actually came true. Let them feel what it would be like to be a Dhimmi after the Muslim conquest of the planet or to experience total socialism from the slave laborer's point of view.

This could also help to cut our energy imports a bit too.

Her writing seems like a giant "Hey, Jihadis! Over here! I'll be your first big splodey in the US!"

How many more like her stalking the halls of academia?

Thanks to Napoleon XIV.

Reading the shit she has flung across cyberspace,I can be reasonably sure she has some "issues" like repeated stalking and making terrorist threats.

There is a pattern and there is ample evidence.

Looks like jeff has an open and shut harassment lawsuit...if he presses it.

The DOS attack stuff could make things even worse.

My advice:get a good lawyer and/or skip town.

Her problem is that she seems to have forgot that she was "arguing" in public.

How would she have behaved if she had actually been in front of the folks she was interacting with? If we were all in a park arguing, her dropping trou and mooning the crowd (including any youngsters) would be seen as inappropriate and excessive by most everyone present, regardless of which side of the argument those present were on.

Her posts at PW were just as inappropriate and excessive as the example above, and she should be just as embarrassed by them.

Hopefully, for her sake, she may have learned something from this experience and will have come to understand that with free speech comes accountability.

On the internet it is OUR own responsibility to keep our part in internet discourse civil and not let the perception of anonymity blind any of us to the fact that excessive hyperbole can and does lead to unpleasant circumstances.

Regarding her wish for this all to just “Go Away” … Unless she PUBLICLY calls off the DDoS dogs that she seems to have set on PW, this prolly won't go away any time soon.

Until the attack is halted her name and reputation will be ever more sullied.

Is this how she pictured her “fifteen minutes” of fame?

I think not.

Intestinal Fortitude, I posted a link to his site in #112. Looks like she's stalking him too.

#112 zulubaby

I know it’s scary, but seeing as you’re a law professor at UCLA, it would be nice if you joined the “reality-based community.”

I wonder is she's a koskid too. Hmmm...

#112 zulubaby - Was that from Jeff? Does he think the DOS could've originated from the University or the poor saps she taught?
More importantly, what can we do to help him?

98 Chicken Kiev

I was looking for a picture too. I found a Deb Frisch with brown hair that looked a little moonbatty. Not for sure though.

And I still have no good explanation for how a supposedly intelligent, educated female can come to hate this country so much. Perhaps this is the type of female Mohammed had around him, which would explain the Koranic attitude to women.

#92-I agree with #103-I am sure this is another person.

I want to see confirmation from the UofA before I will accept the fact that she resigned. OH, resigning is not losing your job.

She can always move to California and join in with Boxes and Pelosi for a good old Ménage à trois.

This psychology professor needs psychological help, and soon, before she does something highly dangerous.

#112 Zula

Scary isn't it? Oh and those cute little remarks about Jesus.

I bet she hates Jews too as well.

After a short review of its blog, I conclude it doesn't get a lot of visitors.

Hey, look on the bright side, Debs - maybe you and Ward Churchill can open an Indian blanket franchise somewhere at the bottom of the Grand Canyon.

♪ Good day {LGF}! ♪

Looks like the "progressive" left are all warm and fuzzy today.

Not.

I'm posting from the library as I picked up "Why I am not a muslim" by Ibn Warraq. Should make for very interesting reading this afternoon.

Professor Frisch evidently believes that George Bush is worse than the Nazis:

AB(Anthony Bastardi) : The Nazis deliberately and methodically exterminated millions of Jews. The US did not deliberately kill hundreds of thousands of Iraqi civilians.

DF( Frisch ): Why is deliberate and methodical murder worse than mindless, chaotic murder? The Nazis were more honest and efficient than the George Bushes. Why does that make them more evil?

OT: Mosque Raid Upsets Pittsburgh Muslims

Um, harassing. You don't know what typos do to me.

#139 peg

I don't know how she feels about Jews but she hates Christians...violently

The Left is a far, FAR greater threat to Western civilization in the long run than is Islamism.

Islamist violence against the West is a symptom of the ascendancy of the Left.

Oh, and Hitler was not "far right" except insofar as the far right and the far left are largely indistinguisahable (which can plainly be seen in this incident; Frisch is clearly virulently anti-Semitic).

Nazism (National Socialism) was every bit as much a product of the Frisch's of this world as was Stalinism and the Khmer Rouge.

Quite simply, the hard Left is much more evil than even Al Qaeda.

#112 Zulu

My bad!

Intestinal Fortitude, she seems to be in a perpetual state of rage.

Hell,the entire left is in a perpetual state of rage.

Continuing the National Science Foundation stuff...

Psychologists discuss counter-terrorism research on Capitol Hill
"And on Capitol Hill, despite the disruptions caused by the anthrax assault, there has been a flurry of activity to address terrorism. With respect to scientific issues, the past six months reveals a fairly focused set of priorities in both the House and Senate committees with central oversight of basic research. In the House, hearings have been dominated by concerns over cybersecurity and bioterrorism. In the Senate, basic research issues compete for attention with commerce and transportation security issues raised by the violence on Sept. 11. (An inclusive chronology of terrorism-related hearings is available on the Public Policy Office Web site, [Link: www.apa.org...]

Because psychological science has received relatively little attention in the hearing process to date, PPO staff arranged a day of informal meetings with senior staff of the House and Senate Science Committees on March 1, to raise awareness of relevant psychological science in the aftermath of Sept. 11. Those representing psychology who participated in the visits to Capitol Hill included: Maj. Jonathan Drummond, Princeton University; Victoria M. Esses, PhD, University of Western Ontario; Baruch Fischhoff, PhD, Carnegie Mellon University; Deborah Frisch, PhD, National Science Foundation; Arie Kruglanski, PhD, University of Maryland; Donald Norman, PhD, Northwestern University; Eldar Shafir, PhD, Princeton University; and Peter Suedfeld, PhD, University of British Columbia. "

#137 zulubaby - That link goes back to February of this year; I thought Jeff was undergoing a DOS attack now. Am I wrong about that?

#149 Zulu

Deb's all the rage.

#126 TotallySirius

I agree, she will likely be found to be a serial offender. Likewise with the creepy pedophilia and procreation angle. This girl does indeed have some "issues".

139 "I bet she hates Jews too as well".

She obviously has problems with Jewish men as her response to Goldstein indicates.
( see post 38 where she wrote:

"Just my two cents: The pathetic jeffy boy goldstein plays the jew card 24/7. Didn’t you notice?"

However, she claims to be a Jew though one who seems to think that gives her an excuse for antisemitism:

"Lest anyone accuse me of using an ethnic slur, I am Jewish and thus am allowed to use the word yid. It's the same principle that allows blacks and lesbians to say n***** and dyke, respectively, without being disrespectful."

{realwest} Hiya, sweetheart. I've less than 4 minutes left on this bloody computer at the local library and I just wanted to say hello and I hope you're feeling good today.

:)

That's it - I'm outta here.

Have a great weekend everyone.

:D

152 holy shit. she's on staff of the National Science Foundation?

#156

More on Professor Frisch's Jewish self-hatred:

A second taboo is generating hypotheses that reflect unfavorably on Jews. In academia, it's kosher to talk about sex and race differences in ability and achievement. It is not okay to talk about ways Jews differ from non-Jews.

Imagine a psychologist designed an experiment to tempt people to cheat. Maybe she gives students a test and pretends to accidentally leave the test on the desk. Students are tested individually and the question is whether they look at the test on the desk.

Suppose the researcher wanted to test the stereotype that Jews cheat more than other people. She compared the percentage of Jews who cheated to the percentage of non-Jews. This is a perfectly legitimate hypothesis. There is tons of social psychology research comparing men to women and blacks to whites. I am not aware of any research comparing Jews to non-Jews...

[Link: debfrisch.com...]

This is the Prof. Bainbridge link.

Steve Verdon chimed in on that same trackback with a post over at his blog, in which he notes that the blogger in question's ad hominem attack on me (a) wrongly accuses me of making a statistical error in this post, (b) herself makes a whopper of an error, and (c) deliberately and selectively misquotes me to misrepresent my position. Steve concludes:

Even more amusing when commenters point out that she has misconstrued the point of Prof. Bainbridge's post, has misrepresented the data, and selectively quotes Prof. Bainbridge she says she can't see the point. Have some integrity Deb, and just admit you messed up.

This isn't the first time the blogger in question has made gross factual errors and thereby misrepresented my position (e.g., here). It will be the last time I take notice of her mistakes and misrepresentations, however. Life's too short to waste time and effort trying to instruct the ineducable, especially those who seem to be deliberately obstuse.

Update: One more email from a reader to share:

I realize that you are finished taking notice of Deb Frisch's "mistakes and misrepresentations" - and with good reason - but I happened to read your first post about her yesterday and after looking around her website was truly appalled by this post that appears to now be removed from the main page and archives of her website but which I have the archived link to because I forwarded it to my girlfriend (we were both in your Business Associations class while at UCLA). I have no idea if you've seen this diatribe. [Prof B: Yep. I saw it.]

At first I thought it was simply an example of the how, while the internet has provided an invaluable resource for gathering information outside of the mainstream media, it also encourages those who are so inclined to be wildly uncivil. After doing a little poking around though, and discovering that this lady is a professor in the psychology department at the University of Arizona, I was genuinely disturbed. First, the childish nature of her insults directed at you are really striking coming from an educator. Second, she proudly belittles the idea that you would expect accuracy from her (i.e., not claiming that you had taken a position on the Summers brouhaha that you hadn't). Does the UofA really want professors to whom accuracy is to be mocked? Third, as if to prove how unconcerned she is with accuracy, she attributes to you a quote from a Charles Krauthammer column that you (admittedly approvingly) had partially reproduced on your site without acknowledging that's what she had done. Fourth, and far and away the worst, she mocks the idea of Christianity without any humor whatsoever, and proudly puts forth the idea that one cannot be a decent professor if one believes in God, Jesus or presumably any other deity.

I enjoy reading your blog, but I am not religious and am a political moderate. However, I don't see how anyone could fail to be worried about the fact that this woman is influencing students at a large university (in the Pac-10 no less!).

I was a stunned by her ham-handed attack on Christians. I'm almost never stunned.

I found this on Michelle Malkin's blog...disheartening...this is part of what the crazy moonbat (redundant, yes) wrote:

"I’d like to hear more about your “tyke” by the way. Girl? Boy? Toddler? Teen? Are you still married to the woman you ephed to give birth to the tyke?
Tell all, bro!"

***

"[...] as I said elsewhere, if I woke up tomorrow and learned that someone else had shot you and your “tyke” it wouldn’t slow me down one iota. You aren’t “human” to me."
***

" Ooh. Two year old boy. Sounds hot. You live in Colorado, I see. Hope no one Jon-Benets your baby.

Are you still married to the woman you humped to produce the toddler? "

***

Give your pathetic progeny (I sure hope that mofo got good genes from his mama!) a big fat tongue-filled kiss from me! LOTS AND LOTS OF SALIVA from Auntie MOONBAT, if you don’t mind!

Somehow, Jeffy boy, I think you get off on the possibility of Frenching your pathetic progeny, even if it is a boy. You seem like a VERY, VERY sick mofo to me, bro.

#127 BobTheBuilder

Her problem is that she seems to have forgot that she was "arguing" in public.

That's a common thing on the left. These dunces don't understand that the internet is accessable to everyone.

OTOH, certain people here would be well advised to remember that, too.

Pro Bush Canuck is correct.

If we ever get really angry, Islamofascists won't stand a chance. Unfortunately, the far left represents an internal, integrated threat that isn't easily beat.

# 137 zulubaby

Here's what she said about the guy from UCLA: "A fellow named Stephen Bainbridge has his panties in a knot because I falsely described him as having supported Summers and criticized Churchill when in FACT, “professor Bainbridge” never even DISCUSSED the Summers fiasco."

Can I be next? I also supported Dr. Summers and think (soon-to-be-ex)Prof. Churchill is a certifiable moron. I also thought the late Dr. Denton was a poor choice for UC-SC, but she doesn't mention Dr. Denton in her post.

#92 Chicken Kiev 7/8/2006 09:25AM PDT

Mumford and Brandon already met with one class on November 22. They invited Deborah Frisch, PhD, a decision scientist from the National Science Foundation, also to attend the class. Dr. Frisch started the class off with a scenario about the Washington sniper incidents that illustrated human decision-making behaviors. The discussion then was opened up to more general concerns. Some of the questions posed were:
* How to predict panic in populations under assault, and how to normalize community behavior in a crisis.
* How to understand the terrorist mindset so as to be able to predict the selection of terrorist targets.
* Why some cops leak information to media knowing that it may harm an investigation.
* The negative impact of media in high profile law enforcement investigations.
* How to communicate information that the public wants during a crisis in a way that cannot be used to the detriment of the investigation.
* How to articulate the needs of the police to focus limited resources on likely suspects without appearing to apply profiling techniques.
* How to deal with police anxiety, which sometimes make it difficult for police to serve as a calming influence for the public.
* The American cultural preoccupation with assigning blame.

#147 Pro-Bush Canuck

Agreed. The nuts are trying to run the asylum. No one has dared confront these sect since the 1960's in any serious manner. No one has stood up to them before the internet. They are loosing their smoke screen and this is what is really driving them mad. They can't stand up to reason and hide behind the one way mirror of the MSM anymore. This, I believe, drives them insane like we see here today.

We are on to their game and the gig is up.

Can you imagine how gamey a moonbat, hippie troll-of-a-prof would be?

In hindsight, the things I wrote were over the line of nastiness. I apologize to Mr. Goldstein.

Only in hindsight? Rather: Spewed without restraint until I got into trouble.

I have resigned from the University of Arizona so there is no need for other enraged people to write to administrators there.

Haven't said anything to date that's reliable, but if I say so, it must be true.

Some blogs have posted comments that I perceive to be physically threatening. I have contacted the FBI and the Pajamas Media staff to determine how to proceed with this aspect of this unbelievable experience.

Hey, I can post perceived physically threatening comments against a little defensiveless kid, to terrorize his Daddy out of exercising his Free Speech rights but it's no need to get the FBI on it. Sheez. Sensitive. Maybe, if the case is filed alphabetically or with European dating day/month/year instead of US dating month/day/year, my FBI file will be handled in front of the other guy, giving me a chance to explain first how I've been intimidated.

179 CTP- smelled enough of them when I visited Woodstock. If they taste anything like they smell...! It also begs the question how they can stand to get close enough to each other to procreate!

Deborah Frisch also stalked distinguished UCLA law professor Stephen Bainbridge

Update: Deborah Frisch continues stalking my site, sending trackbacks to multiple posts to link to ad hominem attacks. While I appreciate the boost to my TTLB Ecosystem link score, I'm not giving the [rhymes with witch] access to my site. Hence, she is the first and only person whose trackbacks I am routinely deleting from my site. (After her offensive emails, I've also added her to my email filter blocks.)

[Link: www.professorbainbridge.com...]

I'm suspicious of Crazy Deb's claim that she "lost her job" at the U of A. It just seems that it happened too awfully fast in an environment (academia)where decison-making is generally a long, drawn-out process. Look how long it's taken Colorado to get rid off an obvious plagiarist like Ward Churchill, for instance. I mean, there's investigations pursued and committee meetings and recommendations issued and, referring to higher authorities, etc.

Of course, Chutch was tenured and Crazy Deb is not. So maybe that's the difference.

Still, something doesn't smell quite right about it. Crazy Deb may be faking an injury to get the heat off her.

I am seriously thinking about not sending my kids to college. Sad, isn't it?

This woman belongs in jail. And I hope she meets some other women in jail who happen to have kids and who happen not to appreciate adults threatening to stick their vile tongues into children's mouths.

#175 LC Wedgie
Wow. What a tangled web they weave:

Dr. Frisch started the class off with a scenario about the Washington sniper incidents ...
* How to predict panic in populations under assault, and how to normalize community behavior in a crisis.
* How to understand the terrorist mindset so as to be able to predict the selection of terrorist targets.
* Why some cops leak information to media knowing that it may harm an investigation.
* The negative impact of media in high profile law enforcement investigations.
* How to communicate information that the public wants during a crisis in a way that cannot be used to the detriment of the investigation.
* How to articulate the needs of the police to focus limited resources on likely suspects without appearing to apply profiling techniques.
* How to deal with police anxiety, which sometimes make it difficult for police to serve as a calming influence for the public.
* The American cultural preoccupation with assigning blame.

No wonder it took so long to nail the snipers. All this time I'd been dumping scorn on the obstructionist Moose.

She's definitely sick and her response by playing the victim now is typical lefty.

Deb, you need to start asking yourself "why do they hate me?"

Liberals are a joke and I'm not laughing anymore. Everything they do is so outrageous and yet they always seem to find a sympathetic ear.

#183 OregonMuse

Her resignation is designed to avoid an investigation or entry into her personnel file.

Hopefully the FBI and the local police in Jeff's area are looking into this, and are in contact with the police in Eugene, OR. Looks like the "doc" needs to be talking to a lawyer, and real soon...as well as a shrink...

Memo to the Lizard nation - we've seen how low the LLL can go in their attacks on people like us...but, we don't need to engage in a mob mentality and accidently associating pictures of people with the same name with individuals that resort to these tactics. The blogsphere has outed people like her, Chuch and others for their "utopian" ways (forgive me, Saint Thomas More). These people are outing themselves, almost like shooting fish in a barrel, and the rest of America are seeing them and their minions for who they are.

My hopes are that Jeff and his family are in no danger and that PW is back up and running soon...

To Defend: this is the pact.
But when live loses its value,
and is taken for naught -
Then the pact is - To Avenge

If this women had access to a suicide belt. I actually think she might use it right now.

I love the smell of unhinged moonbats in the morining. The right blogsphere is getting better and better at pushing those moonbat unhinging buttons just right.

OOps. Just read over at blackfive that she's a "former head of an NSF institute." the fact that she testified on cap hill is still a concern.

OH, and somebody found a pic of her with her "partner" and a little girl in a nighty in their kitchen. I don't know if outsiders can do anything, but that child is in danger...psychological at the very least.

#115 abu_garcia

There is no doubt in my mind that the University had to have some prior history with Ms. Frisch to have taken this action so soon.

She has to have already been a problem to them.

I think this is very likely. First, she is, essentially a failed academic. She was denied tenure at the University of Oregon, which means that she was not successful as a researcher.

Second, she was an adjunct prof at the U of A. Adjuncts are generally hired to teach a class or two, often an intro class. They are not full members of the faculty. At major universities, an adjunct prof is a second or third-tier member of the staff. (The exception would be a member of a professional community such as law or medicine who teaches a class as an adjunct as a sideline to his or her regular work.)

Third, there are a number of professors who maintain blogs on topics relevant to their professional expertise, but ranting and attacking based on one's political views would be viewed very unfavorably at most universities. University profs may be political liberals, but they are institutional conservatives, by which I mean that they are concerned about protecting the reputation of their disciplines and their institutions.

All of these reasons suggest that she would have been regarded as a low-rent person and, very likely, a PITA.

183 or they had decided to not assign her any classes for the upcomming sememster already. She could well have done this shit to somebody in the department too.

Regarding this woman's employer, the University of Arizona. These southern, desert univeristies have been magnets - and worked hard to be magnets for Muslim students. The climate and congeniality were/are very attractive, and thus attract a lot.
Even more attractive is that U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) has a Human Resources Development Office (HRD) that selects foreign citizen candidates for study at schools like the University of Arizona, air fair, tuition, room and board.
The US taxpayer pays the bills.

#175 LC Wedgie

Those look like sane and intelligent discussion points. And if properly presented, constructive as well. Too bad she used the articulated premises to do evil. In other words, this women appears to use her knowledge in an attempt to create anxiety and panic. Perhaps she should be investigated.

Giving in to temptation.

All nice lasses have nice asses.

I would almost guarantee that she didn't resign...notice what she said at the end...I lost my job?

I suspect that the LAST thing the Uni of Arizona wants is the sort of publicity generated by this moonbat.

Deb updates her blog with some more wimpering, but no apology:

UPDATE: I have been receiving emails alluding to the fact that I got fired. I was not fired. I resigned. I was not pressured to resign. I just sent my boss an email explaining what was happening and told him I thought it was best for all involved if I resigned.

Protein Wisdom has been down since this all started so it is not possible to see all the comments and everything that led up to this. People are posting snippets of what I posted that have been embellished with references to french kissing and other things I didn't say.

When and if protein wisdom comes on line again, it will be hard to tell what Jeff added or deleted to the transcript.

I have been trying to get in touch with Pajamas Media to discuss some of my concerns about what has been published at Black Five about this issue. I feel threatened by some of the comments there.

If someone at pajamas media or better yet, froggy from Black Five, could email me, that would be great.

Ah, if only we were back in the good old days of psychiatry when straightjackets were still used (a few short years ago actually).

Truth be told, this woman certainly seems more a candidate for jail than for a mental hosptital. Sociopathy does not respond well to medications, but those who make terroristic threats to harm children are surely criminals.

I looked at her puling website and was particularly impressed by her unabomberesque "home".

Nicelass...get the college review book from ISI

[Link: www.isi.org...]

it gives ideological information along with the other stuff you find in peterson's etc

One of my best friends grew up with eco-terrorist death threats because his father did work on things that frighten environmentalists.

Leftists target children: for death, for intimidation, for brainwashing, for sex.

Some posters referred to Frisch as a psychiatrist, and others suggested that she was a clinical psychologist, i.e., someone who treats people w/ psychological problems.

She is neither. A psychiatrist is an MD who treats people for various kinds of psychological problems/mental illnesses using medications, psychotherapy, or both.

Clincal psychologists are PhDs who also treat people for various kinds of psychological problems/mental illnesses, using only psychotherapy. The are not MDs and cannot prescribe meds.

Frisch is (I use the term lightly) a research psychologist, which means she studies some aspect of human behavior. As I'm sure you all know, psychologists study all kinds of things (child development, school performance, group dynamics, behavior in organizations, etc; it's a long list). Frisch appears to be decision theorist, although I am confident the many distinguished researchers in that field would deplore her conduct.

#179 christheprofessor

What the hell is wrong with academia? Here in Wisconsin we're dealing with Dr. Kevin Barrett, the "9/11 conspiracy fact" moonbat and professor of Islamic studies at UW,
and now this freak from the University of Arizona.

I know there are exceptions (e.g. you) but why are moonbats like Barrett, Frisch and Churhill so common?

#199 Bob the Builder

She's in a hole, and digging deeper!

Still trying to blame it all on Jeff, Black 5, anybody, everybody. . .

I wonder if the FBI, the police, the kid's mother, has contacted her, and she's deserpately trying to shift the blame to somebody else?

"Jeff - I lost my job... "

Hmmm... Did the chickens come home to roost?

LOL

Frisch is no longer employed by the National Science Foundation. There's no reason to email them about her.

Sometimes people who are "between jobs" take short-term positions at NSF, but they do not lead the institution. As Americans, we should be proud of NSF, because they fund research in all areas of science that is important to all of us.

Were I in Jeff's place, I'd blow her away and have a ready-made mitigating factor, right there in black and white.

"Well what was I supposed to do, officer, let her come after my son?"

Anyone who thinks this tactic will fly better realize that ths is not the UK, where the cops protect the rights of terrorists. Here, you come at someone's family, it's a war.

I regret not suing the University of Oregon when the psychology department denied me tenure in 1994. If an economist whose writing and analytic skills are comparable to those of Ann Coulter can whine that he was discriminated against because of prejudice against Republicans, I surely could have won if I’d explained how I was discriminated against because I am gay"

This is why my being a "single" dyke is acceptable... there are, frankly, too few anti-idiotarians in this group of females.

"I know there are exceptions (e.g. you) but why are moonbats like Barrett, Frisch and Churhill so common?"

They are not an exception and there is fundamentally wrong with the university system in the US (perhaps throughout the western world).

The university system (as a research institute) which is of recent vintage was developed in order to further the cultural and scientific development of society.

Instead these institutes have become a fifth column in their societies attacking them at every turn.

They are like an infection that attacks the host body and should be either removed or reformed so that they will perform their original goal.

It’s either them or us.

Sorry, NOT proud of socialism in any form.

It gets even better.

Somebody calling themself "Deb" is posting over at Black 5 now, blaming---you guessed it---Jeff Goldstein himself for driving her to make those remarks! She felt "threatened" and "disgusted".

The post starts out:

"Thanks for the publicity, dude. Jeff Goldstein allowed commenters on his blog to wrote graphic, threatening, disgusting, sexual, violent things about me. I wrote about how I felt threatened and disgusted. He did nothing."

Of course, when most of us happen across a blog that offends us, we just don't read it anymore. We don't feel called up to show them the error of the ways by offering graphic threats. . .

If "Deb" really is the same person as Deborah Frisch---somebody please take this woman's shovel away, before she digs herself any deeper!

She writes about 911:

In thinking about whether there is reason to be suspicious of the standard story, the thing that I find most interesting is the huge difference in attention paid to the different events. Think about how much you’ve seen and read about the collapse of the towers and how little you’ve seen and read about the crash at the Pentagon. Shouldn’t there be some media curiosity about how security at the PENTAGON was breached almost an hour after the first plane crashed into the WTC? Shouldn’t there be some curiosity about how such a big plane full of fuel caused such little damage?

Speaking of conspiracy theories, there was a fascinating article in the New York Times on Sunday by Theodore Sorenson and Arthur Schlesinger Jr. about John F. Kennedy’s plan to end the Vietnam War. Their op-ed piece states that at a press conference on November 14, 1963, Kennedy said “That is our object, to bring Americans home.” Ten days later he was dead. Coincidence? Or was ending the Vietnam War unacceptable to the power structure in war$hington, d.c.?

Do lefty sites like Kos, DU and the such ever suffer from DoS attack?

I followed Spiney Norman's link to Black Five to read the comments. A poster there was able to find a cached link to the thread that started it all at PW. This woman is really deranged, unhinged, just plain not well.

#204 Paul

Here' the (relatively) short answer:

Back in the 60s, many who wanted to avoid the draft stay after college for grad school, then got doctorates. They weren't really interested in serious teaching or research, just avoiding the draft. Then, they realized that be becoming tenured profs, they could no longer be held accountable or responsible for whatever bullshit they spewed forth at their captive student audiences (not to mention get all the young women and good drugs they could handle). These folks now control the tenure process (not so much an issue in the sciences and B-schools as in the liberal arts), so they only allow like-minded indivuduals to achieve tenure. The more outrageously anti-American, anti-capitalist, etc, the better. So, there is an almost inpenetrable, inbred worldview that is so warped as to be meaningless (seriously, in a world of fact, reason, and rationality, would Ward Churchill ever have been hired in the first place, let alone tenured?). You can pretty much track it back to when higher education transformed into liberal indoctrination.

As an aside, many of these draft-dodgers are now in high level administrative positions. Pretty scary.

#215 Simple Voice 7/8/2006 10:47AM PDT

Why would a 'winger' remove/deny such entertainment from the rest of us?

#215 Simple Voice,

Not really, Most hacker wannabe are script kiddies who seek out and prey for anarchy where ever they can find it. It just so happens the leftist idealogies give them the Jolt they are looking for and Conservatives, who have integrity and maturity, beceme their targets of choice.

This behavior is not typically reciprical. But it can be defensive in nature.

207 ploone

AHA! My comment above:

I agree, she will likely be found to be a serial offender. Likewise with the creepy pedophilia and procreation angle. This girl does indeed have some "issues".

I don't recall seeing anywhere on PW where any commenters threatened her. They mocked her, yes, but no threats.

The first time I saw her on PW was last weekend and she was looking for a fight from the word go. She acted like she wanted to get banned, but JG wouldn’t do it because he wanted to use her as a shining example of what academia has to offer today.

re: my #217 wow, really should have PIMFed that.. Sorry for all the typos...

To answer the question of what Jeff wrote that provoked her, here's the Google cache of her debut on PW.

Look for "southwestpaw."

I was following PW through this whole thing, and it was obvious from the beginning that Frisch had merely wandered over from who knows where and decided to leave her uniquely foul-smelling troll-droppings at PW for no particular reason. The vast majority of her comments had nothing to do with the topic at hand. For example:

This is like troll heaven - tons of people with nothing better to do than blather here and a good percentage of them willing to play with me!

You rightwing looneytunes are great - you’re multisyllabic and sometimes even funny!

Icing on the cake would be a couple of kooky kristians who believe:

There’s this guy.
His name is god.
He lives in the sky.
He had a son named Jesus by a virgin named Mary.
Jesus died for YOUR sins but he lives for ever.
What a guy.
Of course, what would you expect from the Son of GOD!

Come on, I know you’re out there kooky kristians - doncha wanna play?

She wasn't provoking the rage she wanted: the PW commenters tend to respond with cleverness rather than incoherent sputtering.

So over the course of several days and several threads, she kept escalating the rhetoric until she hit bottom with those comments about Jeff's kid. Then the DDOS attacks.

In the course of her trolling she copped to the following:

She's a "card-carrying lesbian." (Not that there's anything wrong with that.)

She was denied tenure for being a "gadfly."

As many of you have noticed, she's a serial troll. Much of the crap she spewed on PW she also spewed, sometimes verbatim (especially in the case of her "poems") on other sites.

IMO, she's got some kind of personality disorder, which means she's essentially beyond help.

She's more obnoxious than dangerous, and, as trolls go, highly entertaining, given that she's so far out there she can't make a coherent point.

She's not the same as the woman who does the "Binglés" cards, but she was in Oregon and I think she was at NSA. And she defended Chuch.

But I wouldn't associate her too closely with the Left side of the blogosphere. I don't think she has a lot of friends over there, either.

Btw:

The lunatic Frisch has an article in Counterpunch (should be called punchbelowthebelt) defending doctorless Ward Churchill:

Eichmann, Milgram, Arendt and Zimbardo
A Psychologist's Defense of Ward Churchill
By DEBORAH FRISCH

[Link: www.counterpunch.org...]

I said: As Americans, we should be proud of NSF, because they fund research in all areas of science that is important to all of us.

BenZacharia said; Sorry, NOT proud of socialism in any form.

Are you suggesting that astronomers should fund the construction and maintenance of telescopes from their salaries? How about physicists? Should they pay for nuclear reactors from their disposable income?

Get real. Without the investment of our taxes, we would be in sad shape in terms of scientific advances in MANY fields.

Even industries that carry out lots of research, such as the pharmaceutical industry, much of the basic science needed to develop new products is done in tax-funded university labs.

She update her blog and she is not quite so apologetic as earlier. This is really going to piss off Goldstein.

#217 christheprofessor

Couldn't have said it better myself.

A couple of additions, though. In the sciences and especially engineering, it's not quite so bad. Also, many of the younger PhDs are coming originally from places like India, Africa, Eastern Europe, and the like (alas, the Islamic world, too). The new PhDs may not be as warped as the 68-ers.

#226 jooly

Deb just threw out the "feels threatened" card.

33 Darwin Akbar

Have I mentioned I love that name?

Uh-huh, looking at her blog, the fix is in:

It's going to be Jeff's fault---and Black 5's fault---and Pajamasmedia's fault; she was quoted out of context; she was set up; she didn't really say what she said, or, if she did, she was quoted out of context; it's the Kooky Kristians out to get her; it's the Jews; did we mention she was quoted out of context? It was a joke, and she was quoted out of context.

#227 Midwestprof

Thanks -- I'm sure you could have sait it just as well, and with fewer typos!

I agree completely about the sciences. There and in the B-schools, where performance can and is objectively measurable and measured, it is hard for moonbatiness to take hold.

I'm hoping that when the 60s draft-dodgers cycle out, things will get better. That said, there still remains the matter of the Chutch-like dolts they've put in place to carry on the tradition...

I forget where someone linked the original Google cache of Frisch's first set of truly unhinged posts at PW. I have too many windows open and have been reading the thread for about an hour. It's long.

Basically, everyone was nice but sarcastic until she begins to justify hatred for "Dittoheads" and "Kooky Kristians." She has different ideas about tolerance, you see.

Back to read the rest. Nobody has come close to threatening her yet.

As a proud graduate of Arizona State University, I think I speak for all Sundevils when I say that I couldn't be happier that this professor teaches at the university of arizona.

GO DEVILS!

Mrs Frisch is a very prolific Learned One:

Here she defends Ward Churchill in 'A Psychologist's Defense of Ward Churchill'

It is truely illuminating...

She is a minor Excremental in an Army of Excrementals...

#184 NiceLass

I am seriously thinking about not sending my kids to college. Sad, isn't it?

MISTAKE ! My children have been so disgusted by the ideological pressure they suffered at their college that they jumped into the field of truth and sanity.

Of all of Arizona, Tucson has the most liberals and democrats

UofA (where I work) has a disproportionate number, too

I always enjoy the responses I get from my bumper sticker, "WWRD - What Would Reagan Do?"

She's delusional:

If you jump in the next time someone makes an inappropriate sexual or physical reference or physically threatening comment, I hope you jump in and call the pathetic mofo on it. That really is a disgusting way to let your friends treat someone you are pretending is human. I think you understand, Dan. Thanks, bro.

Thing is, I'm at least a few hundred comments into the thread and she's by far the nastiest poster. PW's posters are ridiculing her very effectively. I'm sure she was expecting a particular response and couldn't deal with the reality of looking stupid. Tripped up by hubris, not shocking.

#213 TalkinKamel

Of course, when most of us happen across a blog that offends us, we just don't read it anymore. We don't feel called up to show them the error of the ways by offering graphic threats. . .

Am not so sure about that, at least not about the "don't read it anymore" part. If that were true, there'd be fewer comments (and posts) based on what appears at DU, DailyKos, Glenn Greenwald, and other leftist outposts.

Let's see. A Gay psychology professor who supports Ward Churchill, demeans heterosexual women and threatens kids.

Yeah, it's a cultural war.

Mary Cheney seems to be one of those rare exceptions. Ellen DeGeneres may be a moonbat, but she doesn't come across as super bitter...but I haven't watched her (or any other TV ouside of kiddie stuff and sports) for many years, so I could be totally wrong about her.

#243 - Make that "culture" war.

#231 christheprofessor

People tend to forget about what you call the B-schools. These are the good, usually small, colleges and universities which are not really research-driven. They are teaching-oriented. That is the type of school I'm at and it's the type where my daughter is going (when she's of age).

I visited San Francisco State University a while back. And, surprisingly, parts of it fit that picture I just painted of a teaching-oriented, small, student-oriented college (the sciences and engineering, again). Large chunks of it, sorry to say, also fit the description of a "Moonbat U".

I'm just finishing David Horowitz's book on the 101 worst profs. It appears to me that most of them are harbored in the new, "progressive" programs like Women's Studies, Queer Studies, Peace Studies, etc.

I wouldn't waste my hard-earned kids' college savings on one of those programs. My kid would pump gas instead (it's more honorable).

Charles,

She said she is trying to contact someone from Pajama Media.

I have been trying to get in touch with Pajamas Media to discuss some of my concerns about what has been published at Black Five about this issue. I feel threatened by some of the comments there.

If someone at pajamas media or better yet, froggy from Black Five, could email me, that would be great.

You should help her out. Let's see where she takes it next.

I don't recall seeing anywhere on PW where any commenters threatened her. They mocked her, yes, but no threats.

Actually, this is a nice little glimpse into the left wing mindset. Even if the PW regulars hadn't mocked her, even if they had been scrupulously polite to her across the board, Crazy Deb would still claim to feel "threatened." That's because the left always feels threatened, not by actual threats, but by anyone who has the temerity to publicly express views that are different from and are in opposition to theirs. Therefore such voices must be silenced, and since Crazy Deb is unable to get Jeff G. to shut up, he therefore becomes a "threat" to her. This has the added benefit of allowing her to play the victim card.

Right now it looks like Crazy Deb is furiously trying to spin recent events to make it look like she was attacked. It's just pathetic.

Note on the Oregon Country Fair: it's just an annual hippie festival, lots of nudity, bizarre behavior, and drug use. Those of use who hold that God is omnipresent can also believe that there are some places where He is more present than others, in which case the Oregon Country Fair is one place where it looks like His presence is at the barest minimum. No wonder Crazy Deb likes it so much.

I read through Frisch's site. Evidentally she was also denied tenure at the University of Arizona, and only kept her job at all because she threatened a sexual harassment suit; hence she was demoted to adjunct status.

I bet she resigned to avoid being fired for cause, which really is the death knell to an academic career.

Here's the coolest thing about blogs: when you're offended, you can just leave! I stopped reading LaShawn Barber's site because she was always criticizing public school teachers with exception. She has the right to write what she wants, and I have the right to read what I want. What's the problem?

214 egfrow. Lee Harvy Oswald was part of the power structure in Washington, DC? LOL whoa.

Is she accusing LBJ? Yeah, LBJ was a crook in the old TX politician mode, but I think his passion was much more focused on domestic issues. Why he chose to escalate Vietnam I'll never really understand.

I do know that democrats of that generation tended to be fierce anti-communists...my grandparents were prime examples. I learned much of the evils of communism from my very liberal grandma. She and I watched a TV Nicholas and Alexandra movie together when I was a kid. Then she gave me the book. Left me the Gulag Archepelago after she died. No joke. Never made it thru the Gulag. Kinda felt I already had the message.

What is it with dem's and children?

Didn't they also try to go after John Roberts child?

The ACLU defending NAMBLA, because "everyone is entitled to a defence."

Liberal judges giving probabtion to child molester's because they "wouldn't do well in prison".

Parents under assault for spanking their kids.

Rob Reiner wanting the State to be the only legal provider for day-care in California.

Hillary "it takes a village", (parents are irrelevant).

This passes for academic perspective. But she claims to have no religion.

The USA is a sick, diseased, cancer, blight on the earth. This is a fact. You guys are in denial about it and hate the fact that I’ve got the chutzpah to hang here and tell it like it is.

Sounds like Sodom and Gomorrah to me, the "secular" Left's version anyway.

There are plenty of B-schools at big-name universities, and the profs in those schools are evaluated on the basis of research productivity just as are professors in other fields. The list is long.

Thanks. Your insights coincide with the opinions of a friend of mine who is a professor of economics here in Milwaukee. He teaches in the Business School and notes that most of the academic craziness originates in the humanities department.

And speaking of craziness, here's an observation from Dr. Frisch, dated November 3, 2004.

For the past thirty-eight months [i.e. since 09/11/01], I have felt a growing alienation from American society, increasing my contempt toward my fellow citizens...I look at the electoral map, at the bloody red states who relish watching World War III on their teevees..[and blah, blah, blah]

#249 Midwestprof

I'm at one of those too... Hardly a peep about politics, the focus is on teaching and critical thinking... We have a Country Joe looking guy, long pony-tail of gray-laced hair and all, who teaches in the sciences. He's a Republican, as am I...

That said, what I meant by B-schools was schools or colleges of business, not "second"-tier schools... ;)

I've been meaning to pick up Horowitz's book for a while... Do you remember the lady that Rush used to mock, who wrote the paper on "male lesbianism?" That's the kind of pseudo-intellectualism that passes for scholarship in those weird Womyn's Studies et al types of departments.

Guys and gals!
Come on, this is just the basic self-destructive behaviour of the left (and others). They are self-hating, and this translates to hatred of their own young and species.

Romans 1: 28* And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; 29* Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, 30* Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, 31* Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful: 32* Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.
2:1* Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, whosoever thou art that judgest: for wherein thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same things. 2* But we are sure that the judgment of God is according to truth against them which commit such things.

But remember:
According to modern thinking, there is no wrong or right! (Kinda makes it hard to appologize properly)

If you examine the posts she's made on various blogs, it soon becomes clear that she has moments of greater and lesser lucidity. In the hours before the blowup, her posting became gradually more wierd, leading some of us to believe she was either drinking or off her meds. She may be bipolar or have a personality disorder of some kind. At some level the university is aware of this otherwise she wouldn't be a mere adjunct.

You may draw some conclusions about the left culture wars, professors and lesbians from her behavior, but realize they're limited. This person is ill.

Beagle, I even remember a regular poster at PW who wished her well, and hoped she would find relief from whatever was making her feel so alienated and hateful. That was a while back, as I recall.

Guess it didn't do much good.

Frisch's site:

UPDATE (11:20 a.m.): Comments are turned off. I get the drift.

Comments are now off for that entry at deb's site... Got the next to last post! Does that count for anything? ;-)

OK, now there's a very good debate going on between someone nicked "Brooksfoe" and other regular PW posters. She drops this gem:

Don’t you think those bumper stickers should say “support our dupes?” Those poor soldiers going to Iraq to die for a lie. Uncle Sam can’t even come up with $70/soldier for foam lining inside the kevlar helmets. So when the poor dupes get hit with shrapnel, their heads bang around inside the helmet causing as much damage as the shrapnel would have!

There’s a simple solution - just line the helmets with foam. But Sam can’t come up with less than a Franklin per soldier.

Not a very nice way to show support for the dupes dying and killing for nothing.

Get it? "Support our dupes"

It should be "troops." Get it now? She's in over her head, has been forgotten, and plows back in with a rehash of a stupid blog post. It's the worst kind of imbecilic trolling, and some parents paid for it.

Personally I hope that Jeff takes legal action against her. My guess is that she was given the option of either resign or be fired, because if she made any of those posts from a UofA computer the school could be sued.

As to her post on the subject...

One of the hallmarks of adulthood is the ability to take responsibility for your actions, she does not. In reading her comment she has nailed herself on a cross and cried "victimhood" like a good little leftist liberal loon. Too bad that will only work for her in the "reality-based community".

Her whiney, pouty post on this subject sounds just like a child trying to justify and defend why they beat the neighbors dog to death.

She is another poster child for the adage "Liberalism is a mental disorder."

Deb is not threatened on that thread. I read the whole thing. It took a long time. Those, I'm confident, are Deb's highlights. Or you could call them troll droppings. Same thing in her case.

Her complete meltdown must be on another thread.

Ah, B-schools = Business Schools. Sorry to say (maybe "sorry" is not the word) I've never taught at a uni where they've had one.

Yes, we're all evaluated on the big 3: Teaching, Research and Scholarly Activity, and Service. It's apparent, though, especially if you read Horowitz, that some peoples' idea of "scholarly activity" is a bit different than what I would call the accepted norm. A good example is Churchill.

"Publish or Perish" leads to the publication of just about anything in order to get the credits for tenure and promotion. I've seen it.
