Yglesias has my proxy. When you come up with a lie, you just let us know. As Yglesias says,
- What the right is trying to do is establish a precedent where if you say things the right doesn't want to hear anonymously then you'll be treated with a presumption of guilt. No matter how vindicated the article may be, it's still the case that TNR expended a lot of person-hours on re-verifying things even though nobody on the right raised any serious reason to doubt the story other than that it wasn't something they wanted to believe. It's extremely difficult to operate that way, and people won't want to. But suppose you do identify yourself. Then you get the full Michelle Malkin treatment -- character slimed, all kinds of personal details splayed across the internet, don't say you weren't warned.
How odd that other troops aren't stepping up to get the same treatment.

I could link you to a gazillion other sites - Malkin, Insty, Blackfive, Allah - to show letters and emails from this guys "comrades" demostrating he is a fucking lying scumbag, but what is the point.
More interesting, is you of all people sticking up for the TNR. Truly the enemy of my enemy is my friend.
