Alec Baldwin/Hannity fisticuffs new twist - who is Mark Levin?

[Coexist]

Crooks and Liars has a link to this great bit about that nasty man who was overly concerned with Mr. Baldwin's diet and love life. This stuff was all news to me, and I thought you might be interested too:

Levin is George Costanza with an endless vicious streak. He's the embodiment of shrillness. He scowls, he sneers, he yells, he bugs his eyes out, his face turns red, he interrupts incessantly, and he makes the nastiest comments imaginable. Most of all, he exudes a simmering but deep-seated hatefulness. If he were a dog, he'd be an ugly poodle-chihuahua mix in a perpetual roid rage. It's hard to imagine anyone more repellent.

And as someone who was tracking what was said on TV and comparing it to the published facts, it was also clear that he was a congenital liar. He had no compunction whatsoever about repeating any kind of falsehood on the air if it would hurt Clinton and advance the cause of impeachment. This included, of course, a lot of nasty personal insinuations about the Clintons' private lives.

Nowadays, as SourceWatch explains, he's the head of Rush Limbaugh's "legal division" (whatever that is). But he also has a history: He was former Attorney General Edwin Meese's chief of staff, and was Meese's attorney during the Iran-Contra investigation.

And more recently, he's been busy leading the right-wing attack on the judiciary, even publishing a book with a title (Men in Black Robes) that echoed similar titles from the extreme-right Posse Comitatus folks. Obviously, Sandra Day O'Connor is not one of his fans.

Please consider reading the entire blog entry - it is enlightening. We will probably be seeing more of this man during the Censure debate.

1. I occasionally hear the guy on WABC in NYC

He's a little ball of hatred. He never adresses questions of substance and when challenged, goes into these weird rants that try to pin blame on "libs" for every problem.

And his ad hominem attacks never stop. Especially for Hillary and "Chuckie" Schumer and the "rest of the hate-America crowd".

And he has the most ANNOYING nasally whining voice. It sounds like he's talking with a perpetual sneer.

4. Landmark Legal is a Scaife outfit

Levin was part of Scaife's posse that obsessed with getting Clinton. Larry Klayman was another.

8. Is WABC the Wonderous Alliance of Bloviating Conservatives?

I keep seeing WABC in connection to RW polemicists like Levin.

Levin's worse than a tool. He's one of the protected class like Coulter and Limbaugh.
