My work, both the written material and my more widely-known video productions, has gotten widespread television, print and internet coverage throughout the current political election cycle. The coverage has been unexpected, humbling, and but for one exception, unsought. Some have attempted to besmirch myself or my work. The Times characterized some of the content of my videos as 'widely debunked.' I have been portrayed in any number of suspect and unflattering ways. And to that stilted coverage I say: So what. Hasn't anything changed on my end and I'm going to keep doing what I do, which is giving my audience what they want: Serious, hard-hitting, passionate information. Rush Limbaugh, a man whom I credit my brother John for turning me on to over the years, said it best. Don't rely on anyone to build you up (like the mainstream media) and then they are not capable of tearing you down, either. You have to hold firm to your convictions, no matter what. If you choose not to do so, then you end up the way Barack Obama is now on the issue of Iraq: Compromised, appearing untrustworthy and diminished. I won't do that, won't cede my believes because it's convenient or lucrative to do so. I won't do that to myself, and I won't do that to you, the reader or viewer, either. Some don't like that I have compared Obama to Hitler, or David Koresh. Too bad. There is a difference between making an analogy between two figures and saying that one person is the other. If you don't understand that difference, that is not my problem. Educate yourself, as I have done for myself. Learn the difference between what it means to have skill in the arts of debate, rhetoric & presentation and what ignorance is. I know what I'm doing when I write what I do and when I make these videos. There's a reason why the New York Times and the other outlets found me and they didn't approach others, people with far more views than my videos have or who are regarded more high...
