On Friday, June 2, my good friend Geral Sosbee received the following message (below) from a person calling herself Christina Cook.
Her spelling and syntax are atrocious, but when a person shows herself to be as ignorant as this one, I suppose that is to be expected.
Personally, I don't have a public e-mail address and after reading this silly little tirade, maybe you'll understand my reasons. If it's one thing that makes my blood boil, it's a meddlesome fool who feels the need to launch personal attacks while bypassing the larger issues.
I've certainly been targeted for many such ad hominem attacks over the years and normally, I don't bother responding to these small-minded scandal mongers. They're a-dime-a-dozen and tiresome as hell.
But I decided to make an exception for Ms. Cook. Every once in a while, in service to the truth, I like to make an example of one of these morons in the hope of nipping others in the bud.
[My comments are in brackets, preceded by my initials, BH.]
Christina Cook's letter to ex-FBI agent Geral Sosbee:
While i believe the things you are saying are true & i have met people who have suffered a lot of ridicule, hurt, damage to their life & reputations, much, loss etc.,because of the telling of the Truth, truthfully i have a very, very, very, very hard time with Hartwells version. i acknowledge that she is pure genius the
way she writes BUT and it is a big BUT.....
She seems to me to be without concious in the way she wields the poison pen toward others which is slanderous to people who are trying to expose the evil that is going on as well but it appears to me she attacks everyone & isolates herself from anyone who might want to help her. It is positively hateful the way her version of things is being spewed out. It makes you wonder if people want to destroy her just because she is so hatefull.
[BH: Ms. Cook says I am "without concious" . Did she mean to say "conscience"? I think it's likely this woman missed the boat in second grade. Be that as it may, how in hell does she come to these totally unwarranted conclusions? Evidently, Ms. Cook is not only a busybody, but also an amateur psychoanalyst.
How could she possibly think she knows who "might want to help" me? Maybe I don't want their "help", whomever they are. And it's my business whom I choose to associate with. As it happens, I am a recluse by my own choice. I choose my friends and professional associates carefully. She does not know me nor anything about me and apparently gleans her misinformation from reading the libelous trash fabricated by my enemies.
As for being "hatefull" (hateful), exposing crimes and corruption is a dirty job, but someone's got to do it . I have zero tolerance for liars of any stripe. If that makes me hateful, according to Ms. Cook, then so be it, she's entitled to her opinion. As my father used to say, There's no substitute for stupidity.
Next item: As for why certain people want to destroy me, there is nothing new under the sun. Evil-doers always want to destroy those who expose their evil. It's a given and that's just the way the world works. Psychology 101. It might behoove Ms. Cook to learn to distinguish good from evil, right from wrong, hate from righteous outrage.]
It almost seems like she has read every single document on every expose on evil out there and made it her story. Her own book she has written in her mind and it sounds credible except for the hate spewing against those trying to truly expose the real evil as well. She should be on the same team. It appears you are the only friend she has. It makes one wonder what the hold is on you that she has. If you have a "wife" relationship with her that would explain the hold. Your too close to see the truth.
[BH: Well, in my case, for the most part, I did not need to read documents or the work of other expositors to learn about the vast range of evils which are destroying this country. Unfortunately for me, the evil I've witnessed and been subjected to comes from firsthand experience, not parroting the reports written by others, as is clearly the case with Ms. Cook.
I do not enjoy talking about it, or even thinking about it. But it is my duty as a Christian and as a defender of liberty to expose what I know. I call a spade a spade. My reports are based on facts. I do my own investigations and research.
What's more, I do not coddle evil-doers, criminals or liars. Why should I? My agenda involves exposing them for what they are and putting them out of business so they can't hurt anyone else --especially the innocent (such as children) who can't protect themselves.
As for the individuals named in my reports, without exception, they were the aggressors, who attacked me without provocation. They drew first blood, not I. They got what was coming to them and I have no regrets about exposing the truth.
Furthermore, I've got a serious problem with tyranny, corruption, terrorism, war crimes and the like. So sue me. Quite a few of the criminals in government and their cronies and minions have already threatened to do so.
Some have even threatened my life. Just another day in the Police State of America. And I'm far from the only one receiving such threats. Just standing up against these government rat bastards is enough to qualify anyone as an enemy of the state. In my book, it's a badge of honor.
As for being "on the same team" with those (she does not name them, but it's not hard to figure out to whom she refers) she claims are "truly exposing evil", no thanks.
Firstly, I am not a team player. Secondly, even if I were, I certainly would not team up with provocateurs, liars, con men, shakedown artists, drugs-for-arms dealers, psychopaths, thugs, porno-mongers, blackmailers or any other type of criminal.
Let Ms. Cook join their team, if that is what she feels compelled to do. Most likely, she already has, as her letter to Geral Sosbee strongly suggests.
Like so many others, among the masses of asses, Ms. Cook really needs to learn to mind her own business and leave me to tend to mine.
Just because I have gone public as a whistleblower on government corruption does not mean that my personal life is an open book; and I surely don't appreciate gossips of this woman's ilk speculating about it.
And I'm sure Geral Sosbee would greatly appreciate it too, if she took her idiotic unsolicited advice elsewhere. As he is under attack on a daily basis from criminals in government trying to destroy him, I'm sure he has more important concerns on his mind.
But I will say this: For Ms. Cook's edification, Geral Sosbee is my friend, as well as my professional colleague. We have been working together, fighting the battle for liberty for over five (5) years. Before we knew each other, we were each engaged in the same efforts for many years. We seek justice. I guess that
is a concept which Ms. Cook finds it difficult to comprehend.
And just because Geral and I stand in agreement about the issues we are exposing (crime and corruption in government, including FBI and CIA) does not mean I have any "hold" over him. Her innuendo that I wield some Svengali-like power is pure foolishness. And no, I am not his "wife" or any facsimile thereof, contrary to the erroneous speculations presented by Ms. Cook.]
If i hadn't had personel experiece with someone similar to her, she would pass me by like a speeding bullet & i would never see her error for what it is.
Ms. Harwell sounds just like a friend of mines wife. I tried to warn him about her 'mudslinging contests ' and her superlatively serpentine highly intelligent (GENIUS even) of her "the usual" 'song & dance numbers' but they were, his favorite lies, (i.e. me & you against the world babe, etc.,.... )
My friend-long story short- was lied against, a restraining order given & during that time the woman sold the house & disappeared. So much for me & you babe against the world....
Don't isolate that very people who are in the same boat you are in and are trying to expose the evil that is going on in America and around the world.
[BH: Now, Ms. Cook feels qualified to cite the "error" of Barbara Hartwell, a person she does not know. A person she knows nothing about. What she thinks she knows has apparently come through the grapevine from her cohorts, the provocateurs and criminals whom she believes are "exposing evil".
Further, she compares me to some woman she once knew who ripped off her husband and flew the coop. Golly gee, I'm sorry to disappoint her, but there is no such parallel from my life, never has been, never will be.
Since she has taken it upon herself to attack me and by extension, my friend Geral Sosbee, here is a list of suggestions to the presumptuous and moronic Christina Cook:
Learn to respect the privacy and personal boundaries of others. In other words, mind your own business.
Try discussing the real ISSUES for a change; that is, if your pea-sized brain can accomodate and process any more than petty gossip about people you do not know.
Instead of attacking the messenger, look for the real perpetrators of "hateful" behavior. Then, if you truly have concern (unlikely) become active in working to stop it. Stop gossiping and DO SOMETHING.
Do some research to ascertain the facts before shooting off your mouth. By blathering on about people and subjects you know nothing about, you only expose yourself as a fool and show the world who is pullling your strings: the very people you claim are "exposing the evil" or are "in the same boat." Speaking for myself, I'd jump ship if I found myself in such despicable company.
Shut off that boob tube. Watching too many soap operas can fry your brain. (Maybe that's where your silly plot lines come from?)
Get a basic education. Take some courses, especially in history, psychology, philosophy and English. Maybe then people might take you seriously when you write your hate mail. You sound like an undergraduate high school student, not yet wise in the ways of the world. If that's what you are, there may be hope, but only time will tell. On the other hand, maybe you're just a bored housewife looking for some excitement. Who knows? Who cares?
Find a new set of friends and team mates. Since you clearly don't think for yourself, the ones you're hanging with now are guaranteed to keep you from ever seeing the light.
Stop assuming you know about issues in the private lives of others. You apparently have time on your hands. Use it to straighten out your own problems, the worst of which seems to be some serious psychopathology. Get some therapy, before it's too late.
It is people like you, Ms. Cook, whose ignorance and sheer stupidity are contributing to the downfall of this country.
I've run across dozens and dozens like you and they all spout off the same party-line, accusing anyone who works to expose crime and corruption of being "hateful". They all attack the messenger, yet refuse to learn the facts behind the message.
Meanwhile, get lost, Ms. Cook, and leave me and my colleagues alone.
