Patterico lays out his entire set of thought on the language issue. I suppose this is another case in which, despite having followed this thing for days, I’m supposed to read thousands of words before it’s valid for me to comment on the dispute.
And, Patrick accuses Goldstein of “playing the race card, whereupon Jeff turns that allegation into a joke.
Did I laugh? Well—I couldn’t rightly say. Hey! Look over there!
And, Jeff Goldstein posts a summary of his side of the argument.
Me? Hey, I’d love to weigh in, but I promised one of my firearms I’d have oral sex with it.

The real joke here is Jeff G challenged some guy called Scott to a fight and Scott has taken his up on his offer.
Given that Jeff’s fighting skills are probably as lame as his academic skills, I predict Jeff will weasel out of the fight in 3..2..
Little Miss Attila, if Jeff is really your friend, you will encourage him to get help. He has lost control of his thoughts and maybe his life, and is sounding like a person with nothing to lose.
Yes. Because it was Jeff who spent two days here ranting and cursing about academic frauds and hypocrites, Jeff who has composed 5 or so new posts dedicated to Patterico’s character (one of which is a visual examination of comments that were removed within moments and will only now be seen by more than 4 or 5 people because Los Angeles County deputy district attorney Patrick Frey has posted them in a preemptive attempt at bullying the victim of what may his anti-semitic ravings into not pressing the issue), Jeff who unbanned himself, then rebanned himself a day later, citing concerns over attempts on his character after having stated that he hopes to make “is Los Angeles County deputy district attorney Patrick Frey anti-semitic”? into an internet catch phrase, and Jeff who then sniggerered that he’d be sending his latest smear piece out to several other bloggers in hopes of getting links to help spread the smear.
Because Jeff needs help. He’s clearly lost control. He’s a person with nothing to lose. And you can tell this because he just can’t seem to stop putting up posts meant to dissuade people from taking Patrick Frey seriously.
Dead on, nk!
Dude, You’re threatening to beat people up now.
I supported you when that crazy person was bothering you.
Now you’re the crazy person…seek help.
The way I read it, Jeff’s remark was more like “molon labe” than a threat.
Dude, You’re threatening to beat people up now.
There’s nothing wrong with beating people up. So long as the right people get beaten.
I have never been so jealous of a firearm 😉

Bad analogy. The Spartans at Thermophylae were a suicide mission.

And threats of violence on the Internet are carried out 93.25% of the time.
MAKE THAT 94% AFTER JEFF IS DONE!!!1ELEVENTY11111!!!
Scott better watch his six: Superman, Chuck Norris, and Jack Bauer all wear Jeff Goldstein pajamas.
Well, James Wolcott noticed JeffG’s latest cry for help.
That’s something!
So, the bitch fight between J and P has now hit multiple blogs?
Really, how much longer is it going to take Jeff and Patterico to determine who has the bigger dick and win that box of Magnums?
‘Cuz that’s about all it amounts to, at this point.
Let the record reflect that I don’t think Patterico should be labeled an anti-semite for all time just because he’s said anti-semitic things.
To be clear, I am NOT saying that Patterico is NOT an anti-semite.
He might be an anti-semite, he might not be an anti-semite. We don’t know for sure.
All we do know for sure is that he’s said some things that many consider to sound anti-semitic.
Just what anti-semitic thing did Patterico say, just so I know too?
Because I have this really long nose. Honest. Long noses run in my family. And with a hook in it too.
No worries nk,
To Goldstein, anyone who doesn’t send him a welfare check when he begs is an “anti-Semite.”
well, star4, DDA Frey has been known to put the word “money grubber” in close proximity to a Jewish-sounding name.
Could be anti-Semitic, Could not be Anti-Semitic. I don’t know.
Better yet, let’s settle it by
READER POLL!
ponce, if you had to request from your boss to pay you would he think you produced anything of value and actually PAY you? Or do you just get paid because you showed up and it’s the law, regardless.
“Or do you just get paid because you showed up and it’s the law, regardless.”
You’re the one “working” the government union job, Darleen.
So I guess Jewish people are immune from imputations of greed, Darleen? Now that is a chosen people. Chosen by whom is a different question.
Better yet, let’s settle it by
READER POLL!
Cool. Let’s. We’ll find out, out of six billion people, how many read Protein Wisdom and how many are as nutty as Darleen Click.
Okay, let’s see if we can keep this at LEAST at the junior high level, rather than that of an elementary school.
Or so help me God, I will cross my arms and lift one of my eyebrows at you people!
I know that Darleen is your friend, Little Miss Attila, but I really would like to have her poll her readers on whether Patterico is antisemitic. My pick in the pool: responses 103; Patterico is anti-semitic 12.
Is there a charitable fund for the humor impaired? Do they know about Patterico’s site?
NK, do you ACTUALLY believe that Darleen LITERALLY thinks Patrick is antisemitic? I mean, really?
If Patterico et al haven’t already mailed off their wish lists to the North Pole, I suggest they ask Santa for some sense of humour this year.

I see you ducked my question and I would remind you that LA County DDA Patrick Frey has a similiar government union job. So I guess he should never remark on money grubbers with Jewish sounding names who get money based on what people voluntarily think the work is worth to them after the fact, right?
LMA
NK has one standard for himself and another standard for people he thinks are beneath him.
So mockery of LA County DDA Patrick Frey as an anti-Semite using the same standards of “could be/could not be/I don’t know/but it feels like/READER POLL!” that he used in his RSM Star Chamber move is lost on such a highly refined, shall we say, woolcottian, male.
Wow – you’ve got to be kidding me?! The Jeff Goldstein/Patrick Frey argument is still going on? Nice. 🙂 Looks like I need to update my feedreader and catch up on some juicy reading.
Gotta love the e-peen contest. Heheh…
“I know you are but what am I?” Darleen?
That’s the best you and JeffG got?
You are both indeed suitably employed.
Well, if that’s where we are, I’d simply like to reiterate that I don’t like Jew-boys or paddies, and that I wish they’d stay out of lawyering and academia.
Related question: Do you really believe that Patterico DOESN’T have an opinion on whether RSM is racist?
Leaving aside for the moment that he seems to think one can seriously say racist things without them being informed by racism.
Wow, ponce is really bringing the heat…again. Where’d you learn to throw a fastball like that? Must be 18-19 MPH.
I am actually a pretty good person by society’s standards. I wake up at 5:00 a.m. and do a little work. At 7:25, I wake up my seven year old daughter, make her breakfast, comb her hair, prepare her lunch, help her dress, and walk her to school. At 3:05 p.m., I pick her up from school. In-between, I try to do a little work.
After 3:05 p.m, I give her a snack and drive her to piano or swimming or gymnastics or soccer or Little League. I have a Blackberry and try to do a little work while I’m there.
Stay tuned for the next episode: nk after 6:00 p.m.
Hint preview: No time to work out at the gym for me I’m afraid.
Patterico is the same way.
What about you all others?
“NK, do you ACTUALLY believe that Darleen LITERALLY thinks Patrick is antisemitic? I mean, really?”
Prolly.
He really is that insipidly stupid.
