Levin Won't Comment on O'Donnell Burglary Claims
John McCormack from The Weekly Standard reports:
Talk radio host Mark Levin is not very happy with my report yesterday on Christine O'Donnell's $6.9 million gender discrimination lawsuit against her former employer, a conservative group called the Intercollegiate Studies Institute. In the 2005 lawsuit, O'Donnell alleged that ISI caused her to suffer severe "mental anguish" by demoting and firing her. O'Donnell also falsely implied in the lawsuit that she was taking master's degree classes at Princeton.
On his Facebook page, Levin defends O'Donnell on many questions raised by yesterday's report (more on that in a moment), but he remains silent on O'Donnell's claim that em>Castle supporters may have broken into and vandalized O'Donnell's home and office and stole files in 2008.< (There was no police report.)
In response to a round of emails Levin initiated with me last week, I asked Levin, O'Donnell's biggest defender, if he cared to defend her against those who claimed she was "delusional" and "paranoid" on these points. Levin replied: "That's ok."
In response to Levin's criticism on Facebook, I emailed him last night while waiting for Mike Castle to show up at Katherine Rooney's Irish Pub in Wilmington:
I contacted O'Donnell's campaign Saturday afternoon to get a response regarding her claim that she was attending master's degree classes at Princeton and ISI's actions prevented her from attending, thereby costing her $150,000 in earning power. The campaign responded by saying that in fact she took one undergraduate class and was not in the master's program.
Do you think it is acceptable for O'Donnell to claim she was in the master's program at Princeton, when in fact she only took one undergraduate [non-matriculated] class?
Does O'Donnell's claim that her house was burglarized and vandalized in 2008, perhaps by Castle supporters, lead you to question her honesty at all? Do you find that story plausible? Do you find it concerning that she did not call the police about this burglary?
Levin's response, in full:
Lol. I think you're an ass. You can quote me.

Since that doesn't offer much to work with, I'll address the rest of his Facebook post.
