Mark Levin Reads My Article On-Air… But Credits the Wrong Author!
I was honored this evening to hear Mark Levin read my Moonbat Central blog entry "John McCain Gets Cash from Soros" on his WABC radio talk show, sometime around 7:10 to 7:15 pm Eastern Time. Unfortunately, rather than crediting the story to me, Mark said that one Clarice Feldman had written the piece on FreeRepublic.com!
I called Mark's show while he was still on the air, attempting to alert him to the error, but a young lady claiming to be his producer hung up on me three times.
So how did this case of mistaken identity come about? Well, it turns out that a Freeper calling himself edcoil posted my piece at FreeRepublic earlier today and accidentally credited the blog entry to American Thinker writer Clarice Feldman – a perfectly understandable error, considering the unorthodox manner by which the American Thinker chose to display my piece on its Web site (go here). FreeRepublic founder Jim Robinson kindly took time from his busy schedule to fix the error on edcoil's post. Thanks, Jim!
Once again, we are reminded of Harry Truman's famous dictum: "It's amazing how much can be accomplished if no one cares who gets the credit."
By the way, it turns out that Clarice Feldman is a very astute writer who shares many of my pet peeves. I particularly enjoyed her article, "The CIA's War on Bush," and intend to make a point of reading Ms. Feldman more regularly.

All I can say is, "you showed a lot more class then I would have."
My knee jerk reaction would have been like one of those primitive's, that when they were shown a photograph of themselves, they thought the photographer had taken a part of their very being away.
Remember Levin is also a Freeper and his show is largely entertainment. There is this one woman Della that he destroys every few days. She should get a part of his paycheck.
He is funny but it takes about three shows to understand him.
