Jules Crittenden eulogizes OldManTyme, a frequent commenter on his blog
OldManTyme, wielding razor-sharp rapier, did righteous battle at this site with the local trolls, skewering and slicing his way through some of the more rotten, mushier aspects of today’s conventional wisdom. Some examples here, here, here, here, here, and here. A great American, in the best traditions of service to nation, community and family.
The commenter's son Joe adds more
He was a Massachusetts Republican, a rare bird, and usually kept his own counsel about politics publicly and especially around my aunts and uncles who are anything but conservative. He wasn’t one to take any prisoners when he got his Irish up over someone not using their head privately but generally gave the impression publicly of an immensely competent but quiet and reserved guy.
