Broadband Politics: Gary LaMusga’s struggle

  • Amy Alkon · 5 years ago
    NEWSFLASH FOR DIMWITS:

    Every woman who disagrees with you on an issue isn't a man-hater. Are you truly that tender-headed, or is it just something you put out there for comedic effect?

    I am passionately for justice -- whether it's a man or a woman being beaten or being cheated out of what's fair. I am very passionately for fathers rights, against no-fault divorce and the de facto kidnappings it permits, and against criminals like Sheila Kuhn.

    In fact,I have a contact who books guests at Oprah, which I give to NO ONE, but I called up Matt Welch and offered him the bookers name and number, because he wrote that incredible piece in Reason about men being turned into the "fathers" (read: Human ATMs) for children whose mothers they'd never even slept with; let alone knew -- and I want to see that publicized. That link is on my site, too. You can dig that up, and while you're there, take a look at this:

    Pretty surprising from a man-hating bitch like me, huh?

    Are the shrill, whiny, lie-disseminating victim-feminists really that attractive that men want to emulate them? Or do you just need something to do while you're not getting laid?

    Sorry - posted the wrong link above. Here's further evidence of how I feel about men:

    And, no, I don't blame my error on "the patriarchy."

    Yes, yes, yes, you're a champion of social justice for all. But why do you hate baseball, the manliest of all manly pursuits?

    That's the real question.
  • Amy Alkon · 5 years ago
    I don't hate it; I'm just not interested in it, so I'd rather read Matt Welch on other topics. He kind of misquoted me and corrected it within the particular blog posting.

    Matt's baseball writing is his best stuff, so when you urge him to stop writing about baseball, you're asking him to deny the best part of himself. This is typical "I have to change you" behavior.

    Where baseball is concerned, you're either with us or with the terrorists; there is no middle ground.
  • Amy Alkon · 5 years ago
    Oh, I'm very fond of all Matt's writing...and after reading the very funny remark you made above, I'm starting to have a thing for yours, too.
  • Richard Bennett · 5 years ago
    Apparently you're a woman of good taste and discrimination.
  • Amy Alkon · 5 years ago
    Don't be going all soft on me now!
  • Richard Bennett · 5 years ago
    OK, I take it back. You're an evil, narcissistic, man-hating harpy and always will be.

    Now go buy some new shoes and leave me alone before I give you a spanking.

    WHAT IS IT WITH AMY ALKON?


    I recently sent a Press Release to Amy Alkon who writes a
    syndicated column called "Advice Goddess" and got a
    diatribe about our company on her website.

    Here are some of her nasty comments. For complete text
    see AdviceGoddess.com at

    The following statements you made about me and our
    company, Sew Beautiful, (www.sew-beautiful.us) on
    your Blog are libelous and they are false. You have no
    basis for making these remarks.

    Amy wrote..

    "I especially love your argument that your customers like
    it. I'm sure the guy who gets a stolen TV really cheaply
    from a fence is thrilled as well.

    "DOES Chanel really know what you're doing? I doubt it."
    "I'm loath to believe anything you say"

    "...there's much you're doing that's illegal"
    "Your rationalization of it is absolutely disgusting"
    "Clearly, you are utterly unconcerned with much but
    making a profit."

    "Your business practices make me retch, and your
    disrespect for others' creative work and intellectual
    property is creepy."

    "Hey, there were lots of Nazis in WWII. Doesn't make it
    right to murder Jews, homosexuals, and gypsies.
    "Everybody's doing it" doesn't make it moral. What's so
    disturbing is the energy you put into defending your
    taking the work of others and profiting from it. All of the
    above knockoff artists sicken me. It's wrong to profit from
    work that is not yours -- whether or not there's some hole
    in the fence of the law that permits you to sneak through
    and do it."

    Can't you girls just get along? This sort of thing is just unseemly.
