Doubling down on Stupid



Well we have another screed from cloud cuckoo land and it is a dozy.

It seems that the evil blogger lady wants to continue to pick a fight with the Instanerd and his wife. Not satisfied at losing her comments section and most likely all the links thrown her way that put her on the map now she is doubling down with her patented blend of pomposity, condescension, bile and wrongheadness.

At least she acknowledges that she would have been in the middle of shitstorm if she still had comments as the "right wingers" who came to her site from Instapundit would inundate her with push back. Which she could not deal with. She took the adult approach of putting her fingers in her ears and saying she doesn't want to talk about it anymore. She just says that the Instanerd is wrong but he doesn't want to admit that she is right. So there.

Some commenter named X said that she went "full mental Inga." I think he hit it right on the head.

You know Wild Bill Hickok was a pretty arrogant guy. His bleached blond hair and bizarre attire were his trademark along with his arrogance and the surety that he was always right. What finally brought him down was when he turned on his best friend.

When Hickok was facing down gunman Phil Coe, his best friend and deputy Mike Williams ran up behind him and Hickok turned without looking and shot him dead. Williams always backed up Hickok and was his main support. He propped him up when he was sick and told everybody what a great guy Hickok was when most people just didn't see it. But everybody liked Mike so they sort of listened.  When Hickok turned and shot down his friend everyone turned their face from him. He lost his job as Marshal and never really had another. He drifted from town to town looking for a game. Finally he ended up in Deadwood. He was so arrogant that he sat with his back to the door instead of the wall. He was shot dead holding the "Dead Man's Hand." He thought he was so great that everybody loved him and that he was always right. But there were many people who were just waiting for a chance to take him out. He made many enemies when he thought that he was the greatest and that everyone loved and admired him.

I think somebody just rode into Deadwood.

  2. Incredible. As I said in the other thread, I hope Insty ignores her.

    She's really lost the plot.

    I would like to amend that and add "except for those emergency tequila deliveries to the far north."

    Tequila - don't leave home without it.

  5. I really thought it'd all blow over in a week or two, and that her blog would somehow return to its normal operations, perhaps with a few commenters kicked out.

    But the post this morning....it does nothing more than prove to her readers that they were right to believe that she simply cannot tolerate any opinion other than her own.

    Throwing the dinner plates at Glenn Reynolds is foolish. All he did was bring eyeballs to her blog. Plus, he is a well-paid lecturer, an author, has the top blog of its kind, and writes monthly columns and articles in several newspapers and magazines.

    Althouse inadvertently proves that what Dr. Helen Smith wrote in her book is true, while her intent was to say the exact opposite.

    She is not well.

    ReplyDelete
  6. I agree, Michael. It's a very personal attack on Glenn and his wife, and in addition to unkind which Insty certainly hasn't been to her, it is a taunt. Very juvenile.

    ReplyDelete
  7. This is the real Althouse that I have had dealings with in person and on the internet.

    It is all blowing up now.

    ReplyDelete
  8. I snark about her lack of sobriety, mainly because I don't like drunks (nothing personal, Troop, I am sure you are a fine guy), but in the picture she posted recently, with the weird noir-ish angle, she really does not look well.

    Edutcher has written that perhaps she is not well. I think there may be something to this. Maybe she received some bad news or something.

    However, even cursory study of films would teach that camera tilt and odd angles have meaning. Blake can certainly speak more eloquently than I on the subject.

    In any case, this is all speculation on my part, and I have no knowledge one way or the other.

  9. I really need to do some work here - I just noticed that the comment feature is turned on in her smegma post - trolling for Titus.

    ReplyDelete
  10. Leaving aside the spat, I am kind of fascinated at Althouse's willingness to make much of the fact that her commentariat is right wing and that it's also misogynistic. While I really do wince at some of the pushback she gets (see, e.g., Nichevo's posts), I am aware enough of the war on men that I understand there has to be some rage built up out there. Which obviously coincides with the success of Dr. Helen's book. Althouse seems to be dismissing it entirely.

    The pendulum swings.

    ReplyDelete
  11. I think you are overthinking this sixty.

    She is just a vile nasty twat.

    She really is Inga. She just hid it better.

    But then I always go for the simple explanation because I am a simpleton.

    ReplyDelete
  12. I shouldn't have used the word "fact". I do not believe her commentariat is misogynistic. I do believe it's mostly right wing, which apparently has annoyed her.

    ReplyDelete
  13. Nichevo for men is what Inga is for liberals.

    You really don't want him on your side but waddaya gonna do?

    ReplyDelete
  14. And Sixty, I thought that was a terribly unflattering photo too.

    ReplyDelete
  15. One mans ceiling is another mans floor.

    It's like calling somebody racist. It has been done so much about so many things that it has lost it's meaning.

    The basic facts are that Althouse is in favor of Abortion, Same Sex Marriage, Affirmative Action, Special Rights for Women and is against religion and the traditional lifestyle. Most of her commenters are the exact opposite but were willing to give her the benefit of the doubt when she didn't trumpet her true colors. When she did then she got pushback. When she got personal and nasty she got even more personal and nasty pushback. It is that simple.

    ReplyDelete
  16. Oh, I agree Althouse got nasty and personal herself. She really has nerve acting like it's one-sided.

    ReplyDelete
  17. As I say, I am diagnosing this mess remotely. Never met her, never will.

    I'll take your word on it, Troopski.

    Now get out there and try to comment - we must see who made the list!

    ReplyDelete
  18. Darcy, It isn't that she is dismissing the pushback from men, it's that she has chosen to ridicule men and women who have thoughtfully commented about it.

    ReplyDelete
  19. Oops, commenting is gone. Blink and you miss it.

  20. They only have one way streets in Madison Darcy.

    ReplyDelete
  21. Hahaha! And she drives the wrong way on them. A little inside baseball there.

    ReplyDelete
  22. Yes, she is ridiculing the people who are commenting thoughtfully on this, Michael. There were/are many.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Hahaha! And she drives the wrong way on them. A little inside baseball there.

    A chemistry professor friend of mine was enjoying a sabbatical in France several years ago. His wife got used to driving in traffic in France -- it really isn't much different than in the US. One day, they took a car ferry over to Blighty and she drove the car off the ferry into the roadway. Not thinking that the rules had changed, she drove head long into oncoming traffic. Fortunately, it was all at low speed/slow motion and nobody got hurt.

    ReplyDelete
  24. And as bad as she looked, her bestest girlfriend Hillary looks even worse, if such a thing is possible.

    I feel dirty now. Must work...

  26. Trooper, I've been to that saloon in Deadwood -- or what purports to be the one.

  29. That's a cute story, Raylan.

    I want to see more of the west. I've seen some pics of a camping trip a friend took in Wyoming recently. Beautiful doesn't even come close to describing.

    ReplyDelete
  30. Hey I have been out West!

    I have been in LA, San Francisco,
    Vegas and Hawaii.

    I have never been in the Midwest though unless you count Pittsburgh and I was only there for a Steelers game.

    ReplyDelete
  31. I would think it would be pretty funny if I took a road trip to Wisconsin and me, Chickie, Haz and Nick Spinelli were all sitting in some bar when a certain couple came in to split a burger and a small glass of beer.

    Now that's entertainment.

    ReplyDelete
  32. I would drive over there for that!

    ReplyDelete
  33. It's a fun thought but I would never trespass on somebody else's turf without an invite.

    But you never know. I might get tickets to watch the New York Giants slaughter those poor Packers in the playoffs and end up in Wisconsin.

    Stranger things have happened.

  38. I was @ Wild Bill's grave in Deadwood a few weeks ago on the way home from Yellowstone. Calamity Jane is buried right beside him. She still considered Bill her friend.

  39. I know. But they never had a sexual relationship and her main focus was her love of animals. Especially dogs.

    Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

  40. Ditto what Haz said. Open invite to all. All shit aside, any football fan has to go to a game @ Lambeau. I have 3 college buddies coming from Jersey in November to see the Packer/Eagle game. One is an Eagle fan[south Jersey]. One is a Giants fan. He had season tix for 35 years until the Giants installed that fucking fee. And the other is a Jets season tix holder. It's quite a melting pot. Trooper, the Giants fan is also a Yanks fan and is RABID!

    It makes sense if Inga is really a Meadhouse sock puppet.

    I recall an instance in these very pages when Allie (Inga) was still still a member. I somehow got into a discussion of local Madison politics after Titus starting dropping names of local Madison people -- some of whom I knew by name. I disappointed Inga with my lack of namedropping ability concerning local Madison politics--it has been almost 30 years since I lived there. But Allie in turn shocked me with her intimate knowledge of local (west side) Madison politics. I think we were both testing each other.

    I'm not accusing here -- just suggesting. Let's see how fast this gets back to her.

  44. I'm just making a hypothesis here, open to be shot down.

    ReplyDelete
  45. A division of the US Department of Justice was deployed to Sanford, Florida in 2012 to provide assistance for anti-George Zimmerman protests, including a rally headlined by Al Sharpton, according to newly released documents.

    The Community Relations Service, a division of DOJ, reported expenses related to its deployment in Sanford to help manage protests between March and April 2012, according to documents obtained by the watchdog group Judicial Watch.


    Those are the first two sentences in today's Daily Caller story. Am I being naive or has the Rubicon been crossed? What's left of the constitution when Holder's DOJ abandons even the pretext of neutrality and gives documented financial and logistic support to the would-be Zimmerman lynch mob prior to his trial? Since the Republicans won't make a squeak is there an opening here for an ordinary citizen to bring a case for impeachment on Holder?

  48. I'm not sure what you mean, EBL. Are you saying anyone can read this blog through a link? I thought it would make you sign in first? Since I'm signed in, the link works for me but I haven't tried it not signed in...

  50. Chip S. warned me he had a friend (without a Trooper invite) try a link on my blog and she got to TY. So I removed it.

    I have not verified it myself, I assumed the same thing you did.

  51. I miss Althouse! I could make scatological comments there and then flee. Here I have to make sense. Too tough.

    ReplyDelete
  52. I just tested it and it's true. If you're not signed in and you click a link you can get to the linked post and all other posts, including the comments!

    Holy crap.

    ReplyDelete
  53. I think there is a bug in the system. I knew there was a backdoor since I used it myself a few times when I wanted to check out the blog from an I-pad.

    I think that anybody that has a link that was up before I changed to private can get in. I don't know what to do to tighten it up.
    I will investigate.

    ReplyDelete
  54. If anybody knows of a fix let me know.

    ReplyDelete
  55. I am not all that worried about people reading the blog. I have nothing to hide really. But I do definitely want to control who can post here because I will not subject my other commenters to people like Inga and Titus. You get a long full chance to comment and prove yourself. When you do...there are consequences.

    ReplyDelete
  56. I was a little taken aback. I thought this was kind of private, but I don't have anything (much!) to hide.

  57. chick, I don't know squat about the law. Please translate what "needs standing" means, to a layman.

    Not-a-lawyer either, to file a complaint, you'd need to show real harm, not just potential harm. If riots happen, and real damage occurs, Holder will be inundated.

  60. Inga is posting one handed!

    At least the beast is confined there. Has she been sighted elsewhere yet?

    ReplyDelete
  61. Actually, I think she's Althouse.

    ReplyDelete
  62. Once again you show how perceptive you are chickie. Once she is not included on the select commenters list she is going to be all over the internet going crazy.

    I am afraid for Lem. It will be like that time Celia Cruz blew him in the Copa and then she wouldn't stop calling.

    ReplyDelete
  63. Does she think this helps Meadhouse's case?

    Do Meadhouse even care? When did they ever complain about Inga except for her flirting chatter? She certainly is not doing that over there.

    ReplyDelete
  64. Or maybe it was a tranny who was dressed like Celia Cruz.

    I forget the story. Lem told it late one night after one too many cervezas.

    ReplyDelete
  65. Inga's biggest claim to fame on Althouse was as self-appointer arbiter of tenor and tone. Sort of a partisan pitbull on loan. Althouse would have had to have invented her if she didn't already exist.

    ReplyDelete
  66. I thought Audie Murphy's mother had her pegged. That was one smart dude.

    ReplyDelete
  67. I'm quite certain Inga is who she says she is. Too many details of her life. Hell, she invited me to her daughters after wedding party in Madison last year. I think she also told others to pop in after the dinner for a cocktail.

    ReplyDelete
  68. Trooper.

    It seems that anyone can look at your blog but cannot look at the comment sections.

    I signed out of Gmail and was able to access the blog. I signed in as my husband's account and was still able to see the blog. However, with both of those ways I couldn't get into the comment section.

    Perhaps this explains how Inga and the others are getting information about what you are posting???

    ReplyDelete
  69. Hey maybe that is what it is. I am not worried about it. I am not doing anything wrong and I am not afraid of anybody seeing what I have to say because anything I say here I would say right to their face.

    I am just glad that the comments are protected because I want people to say with they want without editing themselves.

    Me....I never edit shit. Just sayn'

  70. I couldn't see anything on this blog until TY gave me an invite a little while ago.

    I'm not sure it's as insecure as some of you fear it might be.

    Of course, it's the Internet. Nothing's ever really secure, is it?

  75. Really?

    Small world.

    I once went to really sleazy strip club at the edge of Kennsington and one of my buddies fell in love with a tranny.

    Hey ever go to Farrell's?

    ReplyDelete
  76. Ha ha, no I never went to Farrell's but I think it was right down the street from my church.

    Wish I'd known about the sleazy strip club, though...

    ReplyDelete
  77. Farrell is one of the last of the old school knucklehead Irish bars in Brooklyn. Mainly working class guys who drink beer in cardboard containers. I haven't been there in years so it is most likely infested with hipster douchebags like everywhere else in Brooklyn. But back in the day it was a good joint.

  81. If Althouse clears out here commenting community and ushers in a more lefty crowd, I wonder what that will do to her Amazon profits?

    I'd be very curious to know if lefties would tend to be as generous as her despised right wing readers apparently were.

    ReplyDelete
  82. Even Althouse can't be delusional enough to think that she can compete in the cyber world w/o comments. She must be smoking some serious ganja to think she can do 5% of what Instapundit does. She needs comments for the control, ego boost, and traffic.

    ReplyDelete
  83. I have another computer which is not completely set up for surfing and whatnot. I started it up, went to Crack's site, clicked on his link that goes here, and nothing. I was not allowed to enter this site. Moreover, I could not find a way to change which account I was trying to use to get in here.

    That's my experience. YMMV.

    ReplyDelete
  84. This is the link I clicked from Crack's blog.

  85. I am surprised the lefty sites (both in Madison and nationally) have not commented on this. I suspect they don't know what to make of it.

    ReplyDelete
  86. Me too. When and if my other computer gets up to speed I shall continue to investigate.

    NSA knows all, in any case.

    ReplyDelete
  87. Frankly I am not sure anyone knows what to make of this, especially Meadhouse.

    ReplyDelete
  88. Oh, the ragman draws circles
    Up and down the block
    I'd ask him what the matter was
    But I know that he don't talk...

    But everybody still talks about
    How badly they were shocked
    But me, I expected it to happen
    I knew she'd lost control
    When she built a fire on Main Street
    And shot it full of holes

    Now the rainman gave me two cures
    Then he said, "Jump right in"
    The one was Texas medicine
    The other was just railroad gin
    And like a fool I mixed them
    And it strangled up my mind
    And now, people just get uglier
    And I have no sense of time

    Now the bricks lay on Grand Street
    Where the neon madmen climb
    They all fall there so perfectly
    It all seems so well timed
    And here I sit so patiently
    Waiting to find out what price
    You have to pay to get out of
    Going through all these things twice

    Oh, Mama, can this really be the end
    To be stuck inside of Mobile
    With the Memphis blues again.

    Seemed appropriate...

    ReplyDelete
  89. Hey guys. First post here at Troopers. Thanks Trooper. You can read what I've written at EBL. I'm not going to repeat it again, but suffice to say that my tenure at althouse was reduced to nothing more than an empty gesture by her actions and behavior. the more that comes out the more it appears that she's not really who she says she is and her judgment is suspect. If her students knew that she employed these tactics as a teacher of the law, I would steer clear of her too. This is shameful behavior by someone that I held in a higher esteem and I'm now sorry that I've wasted my time at Althouse knowing that she really isn't who she projects herself to be.

    Darcy, It isn't that she is dismissing the pushback from men, it's that she has chosen to ridicule men and women who have thoughtfully commented about it.


    Michael, it goes beyond that. Her 'losers' screed on DOMA was the icing on the cake that really brought her tactless shrill harpy-ness to the front. Something I would never have expected and I told her as much, but I also saw something deeper going on and I suspected she was up to something and I said that too. I guess it revealed itself in this manner.

    What she really showed was that she is a misandrist and the charge of misogyny on her part against her detractors and the commentariat at large was unfounded against those that disagreed with her.

    ReplyDelete
  100. My thought on the Instapundit and Althouse dust up--I thought Glenn made the much better and readable argument than did the Prof from Wisconsin--Having been in Academe (sorry) for quite a while, there is nothing more hostile than disagreement between academecians. As Henry the K said: arguments in academe as so vicious because the stakes are so small. Althouse has not done nearly the amount of peer reviewed publishing as has Professor Reynolds and I suspect that gets under her think skin--He's a far better writer and can translate legal issues into readable stuff for non-lawyers--Althouse was way out of her league to go after him.

    Professors profess--and if challenged they simply flunk you--Academcians for the most part hate being challenged. They are all for academic freedom until they are challenged personally.

    Glad to see my favorite commenters migrate over here. Best to all.

  102. "There is nothing more hostile than disagreement between academecians."

    Mornin' Folks,

    Except in numbers, I don't know that Ann and Glenn are at each other, because - based on the ethical picture they present - I really don't think they care. They think they're "getting away" with something, legally gaming the system, if you ask me. It ain't gonna run well like that.

    The most dangerous thing to Ann right now isn't Insty, or even her own propensity to casually lie and contradict herself, but that 2006 article in Reason by Ronald Bailey. There you see the pattern for all that, with the histrionics and mental breakdown included.

    Unless Ann puts that in her banner's "ABOUT" header, she can't claim to being honest with anyone about whose views they're getting. It certainly ain't some thoughtful, sophisticated lawyer staring off into the distance, that's for sure.

    Insty plays the same game - down in the mud with his nose in the air - but minus the public hair-pulling. He's more careful than Althouse, but that doesn't make him safe, either.

    I told 'em to stay away from Romney, man:

    That cult shit can rub off on ya,...

  106. Very good observations, Roger J.

    Althouse's response to Glenn Reynolds was embarrassing. It wasn't quite wince-worthy, but it was close.

    Discovering her in her fourth blogging month, I liked Althouse for her independence of mind, eclectic tastes and lively-seeming personality. Over the years, each of those has been revealed to be a fraud in one way or another.

    Add to that her monochromatic and long-predictable writing, and there isn't much left. Agree with him or not, Glenn Reynolds has a depth that Althouse frankly can't conceive of. And, yes, she really stepped into it by contending with such a figure.

    This all is the sense of the meeting here and not worthy to rehash, so I hope everyone will forgive me if I just tried to see if my brain cells had any minimal ability to process anything after recent flat-out days. Thank you.

  107. FWIW, I tried Darcy's link in different browsers with different (and no) Gmail identities and none of them could get in.
