Who is paying Moore to harass Diersen? This time Moore spelled Diersen's name correctly, blasted Diersen for not taking the time to "explain which of G. Gordon Liddy’s actions in the White House exemplified conservative values and/or American principles," denied that he promotes Obama or Ayers, denied that he demonizes or denigrates Diersen or Liddy, painted Diersen as a hypocrite for not taking the time to denounce Liddy's "criminal mentality," complained that Diersen does not put enough "effort into his writing," said that Diersen is "Simply whining that he’s been criticized without explaining why the criticism is wrong is just plain lame," and said "As far as I’m concerned, cyberspace deserves better. Who’s with me?"
