Yesterday on Fox News, talk radio host Mike Gallagher said the U.S. government should “round up” actor Matt Damon, “The View” host Joy Behar, and MSNBC anchor Keith Olbermann and “put them in a detention camp until this war is over because they’re a bunch of traitors.” Gallagher was upset over Behar’s comment that Time magazine should have chosen a controversial “Hitler-type” like Donald Rumsfeld as its Person of the Year. Gallagher said Damon should also be incarcerated because he “attacked George Bush and Dick Cheney”; he didn’t explain why he wanted to imprison Olbermann. Watch it: Earlier this year, Gallagher was one of five conservative talk radio hosts invited to the White House to meet with President Bush. Full transcript: GALLAGHER: You know, it’s a little bit ridiculous that we continue to watch these TV stars and movie stars who smear our leaders. I just wonder, Rob, if you’ll think for a moment what our enemies think of seeing TV personalities compare the outgoing defense secretary to Adolph Hitler. I mean, you know, conservatives never get a pass. Strom Thurmond is wished a happy birthday by Trent Lott and the sky falls in on Trent Lott. But Joy Behar goes on national TV and compares a good man like Rumsfeld to the evilest man in the world and nobody, you know, there’s no repercussions for Joy Behar. I think we should round up all of these folks. Round up Joy Behar. Round up Matt Damon, who last night on MSNBC attacked George Bush and Dick Cheney. Round up Olbermann. Take the whole bunch of them and put them in a detention camp until this war is over because they’re a bunch of traitors. THOMPSON: They’re not traitors, they’re Americans. And you know what the great thing about America is you get to say what you like and you don’t get thrown into detention camps. GALLAGHER: No, you don’t. THOMPSON: And that’s what the rest of the world sees. They see free Americans say what they like without having any fear of going to jail. So, if I wanted to compare someone to Hitler or anybody else, Pol Pot, whatever it might be, I have no fear of going to jail because that is what an America is. GALLAGHER: There’s such a thing as treason, Rob. THOMPSON: That’s not treason. That’s just political talk and satire and it might be funny at the best, at the least.
Poster Comment: Mike is another Jew masquerading as an Irish guy. "Gallagher" = Smelstor.

Smelstor's Giant Couch
Albany Times Union Section: CAPITAL REGION Page: B1 Date: Wednesday, September 6, 1995 AS SMELSTOR OR SMELLSTER, THE NAME FITS THE CHARACTER Dan Lynch You might recall that I was disturbed a few weeks ago when I discovered that the condo unit I was moving into is located only a few blocks from the home of a particularly repulsive human being a radio talk show host who's elevated broadcast thuggery and bad taste almost to an art form. This blowhard makes his living as a professional bully, braying and namecalling at the top of his leather lungs every weekday afternoon. I despise the sort of sleazy, shoddy broadcasting he practices, but I was especially offended when this howling geek started beating up on my wife, who teaches school and is in no way a public figure like me for whom such treatment is merely part of the job. Why did he do that? Initially, I think it was an attempt to start a media feud and provoke me into printing his name, which would serve to promote his show. Some of these broadcast bottom feeders figure that any publicity is good publicity. I therefore made it a point to avoid mentioning this creep's name. Now, however, it has come to my attention that this low-brow loudmouth mentioned my wife again after that column appeared. I'm told that he called my wife, who's about an inch away from her doctorate, "a dolt.'' Given that, I guess it's time to mention his name after all. So here it is: Mike Smelstor. Now, if you've suffered the misfortune of hearing his show, you know that's not the name he uses on the air. It does, however, seem to be his real name. I know that because, when I was told that he lived in a house near where I was moving, I checked it out. I checked with the local tax assessor. Turns out that the house is owned by a building company. He must rent. I then turned to driver's licenses records. Sure enough, there he was, Michael Smelstor the right address, the right age, the right hair color. I decided not to mention it at the time. A lot of showbiz types change their names. Cary Grant was actually Archie Leach. Kirk Douglas, growing up in Amsterdam, was Izzy Demovich. Actors make their livings pretending to be other people, so who cares what they call themselves? Smelstor, though that's a different matter. He makes his living on the radio as a purveyor of truth or, at least, the truth as he supposedly sees it. And he won't even give you his right name? So why should anybody believe anything he might have to say? Nor should you, by the way. The closest this guy ever comes to the truth is a fib. What's even worse, though, is the name he uses. It's Irish. Most people around here trace their ancestry to Ireland. It's silly to treat the land of your ancestors as a shrine, but I can appreciate the concept of ethnic pride. I don't know what Smelstor is, but that name isn't Irish. And, given how vile and really repelling this loud-mouthed goon and his show are, I take no small comfort in that. He isn't one of mine. Thank you, God. So now, at long last, he's gotten his name into this column. And, if I ever have occasion to mention him again, he'll even have a nickname that fits him like a spandex body suit. The Smellster. Are we talking perfect here, or what? Dan Lynch's column appears regularly in this space. He can be reached at 454-5412.
