chris_gerribI am gobsmacked, gobsmacked I tell you, at the antics of various public figures the past few days. For example:
1) Sean Hannity - Mr. Hannity has spent months defending Donald Trump, including decrying the raid on Trump's attorney. Yet never once did Hannity mention that he's used said attorney for his own legal matters. Now, since Cohen (the attorney) had all of three (3)!!! clients, common sense would suggest that one might want to mention their involvement. I mean, if Cohen had had dozens of clients, it might not be as much of an issue. But three?
2) John Ringo - per File 770, John Ringo was invited to a convention then, when people decided they weren't going to a convention that featured him, he was disinvited. Allegedly this was in part due to death threats. For a self-proclaimed tough guy and military vet, Mr. Ringo seems lacking in testicular fortitude.
3) Jon Del Arroz - here, we have an author that's publicly trolled people on the Internet filing suit to gain access to a private event that banned him due to trolling. Whatever happened to the freedom of association? It seems again we have a case where "what's good for thee is not good for me."
