Roddy: Unfit for command (Exposes Jerome Corsi and Iranian "Curveball")
Dennis Roddy is a Pittsburgh Post Gazette columnist who is great at exposing liars and bigots like Corsi. Corsi this past week was a guest on KDKA radio "liberal" Mike Romigh's show. Mike was letting him get away with exposing his crap intelligence on Iran in his book "Atomic Iran: How the Terrorist Regime Bought the Bomb and American Politicians" till Dennis Roddy called in and challenged Corsi with his own vile words. I was listening to the show and it was fun listening to Corsi trying to spin from his own vile Freeper postings. Dennis gave him an ass-whupping.

Corsi might have defended Sepasy's remarks the same way he defended his own trash talk on Islam and Catholicism and other topics when I phoned to confront him on KDKA.

"I was being provocative," he said. He wanted to "encourage discussion." The remarks, he said, were "taken out of context," as if there is a context for discussing religion and politics by suggesting one's motives are pederasty and corruption. He went on to suggest that maybe I approve of child molesting. Quite a debater, this Corsi.

Kenneth Timmerman, a conservative scholar, explored Sepasy's odd lobbying contract in his own book, "Countdown to Crisis: The Coming Nuclear Showdown With Iran." His criticism of Corsi is not so much on what he did that is old, but his newness.

"Jerry Corsi is unknown to the Iranian community and the pro-democracy movement in Iran," Timmerman said. "Until he published a book on Iran. That has made some people suspicious of his motives."
