The Old Guard Strikes Back

The Old Media's resentment towards bloggers has never been more transparent. And now, they've gotten personal.

The Los Angeles Times, only slightly behind the New York Times in liberal rag-dom, has taken it upon themselves to "out" the identity of FReeper Buckhead, who is widely credited with bringing some of the first nationwide scrutiny on the forgeries used by Dan Rather and CBS disguised cleverly as news.

The LA Times, in their oh-so-cleverly titled article Blogger Who Faulted CBS Documents Is Conservative Activist, do left-wing thugs the convenience of posting not only Buckhead's name and picture, but his bio at his law firm containing his work address.

Fortunately, Buckhead lives in a red state. My red state of Georgia. Unfortunately, Atlanta is the largest bastion of degenerate liberalism in the state, fielding such gems such as Congresscritters John Lewis, Denise Majette, and "Jihad Cynthia" McKinney.

Obviously, I hope for Buckhead's safety, as he will undoubtedly be inundated with hateful phonecalls from the disgruntled ultra-liberals of Democratic Underground and other such left-wing fringe groups.

Fortunately for Buckhead, however, the psychos over at DU apparently either think he's really Karl Rove in disguise, or is receiving marching orders directly from Rove. There aren't quite any threads over there calling for phone-flooding or house-marching yet.

Naturally, if a security risk to Buckhead or his family arises, I will post it here.
