In the late 90s, when the damage of having a reckless buffoon, communist sympathizer and for-sale “leader of the free world” in the White House came to fruition, the only thing that allowed me to sleep at night was the sure knowledge that Christopher Ruddy was in the world. He’s the guy who started Newsmax, an outfit which, as one of my editors then scoffed, “is founded on Clinton-bashing”—to which I replied that I couldn’t think of a higher calling.

At night, I would drift off to sleep thanks only to the quiet assurance that someone in the world was keeping track. Keeping track of the lies, the treason, the consequences, the causes, the maneuverings, the cover-ups, the crimes, the escapes from justice and so on. I had seen Ruddy debate the pro-Clinton camp on TV, easily making mincemeat of it and exposing all pro-Clinton arguments for the fluff that defending Clinton can only be. Thank God for Chris Ruddy and Newsmax, I thought—someone who can keep straight, and set anyone else straight, on the rampant criminality of the Clinton White House. [more@ExileStreet.com]
