BLOGGERS WANT THE RIGHT TO RAISE MONEY IN SECRET, HIDE BEHIND FAKE NAMES WHEN MAKING ACCUSATIONS

Comments now open. Original Post from yesterday 6/4.......
If you want to write a letter to the FEC just like Glenn Reynolds (defender of stealing music from artists), Kos (he of the radical left who secretly took money from the Left for a while), Duncan Black (who wrote two blogs using different names and secretly took money for saying the "right" things on one of them) and the other pack of self serving ego maniacs who want to be a special case when it comes to cheating, just write away. The excuse for this massive excercise in mendacity is "welcome to the wild wild west of the blogosphere." It is exactly this type of secret fund raising, anonymous writings (and accusations) together with endless linking to other sites, many of whom are anonymous with no assurance that said linking is not paid for, are the types of blogs that the FEC wants to expose. Were you to find out I was getting cash under the table from the American Nazi Party you'd be pissed, and rightly so. If it turned out that I was also influencing debate, then I am basically a foreign agent.

That's what I'm telling the FEC. Nothing is as hypocritical as these bloggers attacking places like the NYT while they engage in massive fraud. I'm for full disclosure. All the time. For everyone. Or else.
