The O'Reilly Factor

The O'Reilly Factor 12/19/2004 03:40 PM
I'll get back to the history tomorrow (Saturday). For now, though, I want to tell you about my experience tonight as a guest on the Bill O'Reilly show. I received a call this afternoon (Friday) from the producer inviting me to debate O'Reilly on the question: “Is dissent disloyal?” After the producer and I discussed this issue, O’Reilly (according to the producer) decided to redefine the question: “Can an American want the United States to lose the war in Iraq and still be patriotic?” Of course, this is a loaded question. It not-so-subtly implies that those who oppose the war want the United States to lose and, even worse, want American soldiers to die. One of Joseph McCarthy’s favorite tactics was to imply that anyone who believed in the social or economic principles of communism also supported the violent overthrow of the government. The tactic of guilt-by-inference is all-too-familiar in American history. (I'll return to McCarthyism in my next entry.) In any event, in our “debate” O’Reilly insisted on his “narrow” framing of the question and, when I called him on the issue, denied that he intended to imply anything about those who merely oppose the war. I accepted his framing of the question (it is, after all, his show) and argued that a patriotic citizen could in principle want the nation to lose a war if the war is unjust and if losing meant that fewer American soldiers would die for no good reason. O'Reilly maintained that losing a war necessarily means that more American soldiers will die than continuing the war and that no one could therefore patriotically wants the nation to lose. O’Reilly tossed out such ugly phrases as “despicable,” “traitor,” and “disloyal” to describe those who would disagree. The purpose, of course, was to excite his audience. After the show, I received dozens of emails, most of which were along the following lines: “You ought to be arrested, tried, convicted of wartime treason. And I don't have to tell you the penalty for that.” “I hope they are checking you out for being a traitor!!!” “You are not only despicable, but should go ahead and move out of the USA.” “I must imagine, Mr. Stone, that you will look over your shoulder a little bit, because maybe some soldier in a foxhole somewhere might be a tad angered with you and your lunacy. There may be a few G.I.s in Chicago even that would like to ‘speak’ with you.” “There is the tendency for citizens to take the law into their own hands in these cases. Decent, ordinary people, not of the left, are angry enough at the far left to be willing to go along with things you would consider unconscionable.” “You're a despicable Piece of feces, A Gutless Traitor. and I strongly suggest that you get your Terrorist Sympathizing Worthless ass out of this country while you can still walk and talk.” And so on. What do you make of all this in light of our on-going conversation?

Moral Clarity

Moral Clarity 06/30/2004 09:15 AM
The Moral Values Party

With thousands of Republicans set to invade the city this summer, high-priced escorts and strippers are preparing for one grand old party.

Agencies are flying in extra call girls from around the globe to meet the expected demand during the Aug. 30-Sept. 2 gathering at Madison Square Garden.

"We have girls from London, Seattle, California, all coming in for that week," said a madam at a Manhattan escort service. "It's the week everyone wants to work."

"It's going to be big," agreed one operator at a midtown escort service.

Now that's what I call moral clarity!!

Insecurity through Clarity

Insecurity through Clarity 06/25/2004 12:33 AM
World Wide Wardrive finds most access points unprotected: The fourth week-long international wardrive found 288,000 access points in their survey, more than 50 percent of which had no security enabled. Since these were passive scans, it's impossible to tell whether those access points were inside or outside corporate firewalls, and thus not open portals, but it's likely that the overwhelming majority were just plain open. Nearly 30 percent had the default SSID or network name set....

Political clarity...

Political clarity... 10/31/2003 07:16 AM

For many recent Labour voters the last couple of years have been a bit of a troubling time - with some of the actions of the government (particularly with regard to the War in Iraq) seeming to be violently and almost universally at odds with the views of the electorate. As a result, I think it's far to say that their popularity has waned. But while people have become vaguely disillusioned with Labour, the other political parties haven't really seemed to be particularly inspiring any kind of reaction at all. In a way it's a bit of a surprise - whether you like the policies or not, it's difficult to deny that the Conservative policy raft has been more interesting than it has been for a long time. But that doesn't seem to have made much of a difference either way. On the whole - with the exception of occasional terrifying statements by Oliver Letwin, the only things they do that get any press or interest from the public have been their bi-weekly attempts to commit televised hari-kiri.

There's a whole range of reasons why they might not have made sufficient political hay recently. Obviously there's the increase in general political disillusionment. Certainly the current government hasn't done an awful lot to stem that particular tide. Also, no one realistically thinks that the Conservative party can quite hold themselves together long enough to put any of their shiny new (if occasionally barking) policies into practice? Their regular apocalyptic tailspins have made them the "Kenny" of Westminter's "South Park".

Another position - and one I tend to subscribe to - is that because they've simply tried to be perceived as vaguely socially tolerant (and had a "nice" non-threatening leader), minority groups, trade unions and the like have stopped thinking of them as an actual danger any more. And while that group has had their anxieties eased a bit that doesn't mean that they (or other people in the centre-ground) are yet convinced that they're trustworthy, representative of public opinion or - well - totally in touch with reality... And while they're waiting for evidence, they're quite comfortable to background them...

Well as far as I'm concerned, the discomfort remains and the anxiety is back. That's not to say that I think Michael Howard has much of a chance of being Prime Minister. And it's not to say that I think the party will be any more united under his leadership. But - if they put him in charge of their party - they will have made certain parts of this argument crystal clear for me again. Instead of being able to view the Conservative party as representing an alternative - perhaps more market / efficiency driven - approach to running the country, appointing Michael Howard is no more or less than running up the Conservative Skull and Crossbones again and setting sail for the easy targets of cheap political swag.

Tom Watson has put up a post that reminds us of the facts about Michael Howard. There's terrifying stuff in there. I'm going to highlight a few of the ones that scare me most personally, but please - read the full list...

"As Home Secretary, he believed that the answer to crime was simply to lock more people up: "an increase in the number of criminals in prison leads to a large fall in crime" (POLITICS, MORALITY AND THE NATION STATE lecture, ST. MICHAEL CHURCH, CORNHILL, CITY OF LONDON, 10 January 2003)"

"Howard criticised Jack Straw's decision to detain General Pinochet and actively campaigned for his release: "We think this has gone on far too long. We think he should be sent back to Chile." (BBC Interview, 26 November 1998)"

"Howard opposed the introduction of the Human Rights Act."

"Howard was judged to have flouted the European Convention on Human Rights following unlawfully delaying the release of five long-serving IRA prisoners - the SEVENTH time he had been found to be acting illegally in just two years as Home Secretary. (September 1995)"

"Howard voted against equal rights for homosexuals by opposing lowering the homosexual age of consent to 16"

And if you still needed evidence that this man must not be allowed to become Prime Minister at any cost, then how about these two draconian, vile-worded and dangerously regressive/oppressive policies:

"Howard was the Minister in Charge of bringing in the Poll Tax in 1988. Even after Thatcher had gone, and after the poll tax riots, he insisted he still believed in the policy (July 1991)"

"Howard was the Minister who brought in Clause 28 of the Local Government Act banning the "promotion" of homosexuality (March 1988)"

Peter was watching the hearings for Orrin Hatch's crackpot, iPod-criminalizing Induce Act, when he noticed an edit in the recording. What did Hatch and the Register of Copyrights say to one another during the gap?

Orrin Hatch (OH) : "During the august recess, I would like your office if they can to assist this committee in the efforts to identify and resolve potential concerns about potential abuses of international and domestic and intentional inducement liability. Could we count on your to help us with that?"

Marybeth Peters (MP) : "Absolutely, I just identified this as the most important question in copyright today. We would be more then happy to assist the comitte in facilitating, umm, and bringing about a hopefully a result that could work"

OH : "Yeah i'd heard that so I was just making sure that you..."

Vonage Sued Over Lack Of Clarity In 911
Info 03/22/2005 05:03 PM
The issue of VoIP having 911 service gets way too much attention. Most of the major VoIP players already have some sort of solution in place, and it seems to be improving over time. However, apparently the attorney general in Texas doesn't think Vonage is doing enough. It's not that they don't offer 911 service, but that they don't make things clear enough to customers who are signing up. The whole case seems a bit confusing. Vonage clearly does offer 911 service, so saying that users "aren't clearly informed that the service excludes 911" is incorrect. It does include 911, you just have to follow the instructions -- and Vonage claims they make every effort to get people to follow the instructions. Not only that, but the company seems to make the process fairly straightforward, though it could be improved. This seems more like political grandstanding in the wake of some negati ve publicity recently concening VoIP and 911 service in Texas.

When one starts to die down, another one crops up. While every single one of these assertions is laughable, the never-ending barrage of anti-Linux propaganda has got to take its toll on potential users. Here are a few of the accusations you might find in articles planted here and there in the media.
