Many writers have trouble taking rejection well. They’re sensitive souls, after all, and don’t like being told
that their work, in a word, sucks. Anthony Gancarski, author of Unfortunate Incidents, and a former columnist
for 4mbtsale.com, is a case in point. I rejected what was to have been the latest installment of his column –
and he went over to the Dark Side.
Gancarski’s piece for Frontpage, detailing his conversion to the pro-war position, is distinctly … weird.
There is, first of all, his description of his former beliefs:
"If someone had told me a few months ago that I’d be writing a piece for Front Page on this theme, I would’ve
dismissed him as a lunatic. After all, then I was supporting the positions expected from those on the so-called
antiwar right. I was harshly critical of Israeli defense initiatives, more willing to talk up for Noam Chomsky
than the sitting President."
