|
rear_edmurrow: CBS has arranged an interview tonight with the man spearheading the inquiry, the junior senator from Wisconsin, Joseph McCarthy. |

|
rear_edmurrow: got you by the balls now b1tch |
|
DudeWheresMcCarthy: look, i’m very aware that my persona and the word “mccarthyism” are regularly misused to prop up half-baked arguments by people all over the internet |
|
DudeWheresMcCarthy: but seriously, fear mongering aside, you have to admit that music stealing is unethical and nobody who used Oinko didn’t know it was a crime |

DudeWheresMcCarthy: Listen, I cannot win an argument with you in Internet-speak. |
|
rear_edmurrow: Fine. All I have left to say is that if people steal from a bloated financial behemoth and face longer terms than sex offenders, I am going to laugh until I cry. Or wait, maybe I’ll cry until I laugh. |
|
DudeWheresMcCarthy: I think we can all agree with that sentiment. |
|
rear_edmurrow: This is Edward R. Murrow. Good night, and good luck. |
