That is my impression of him - creepy. Weird.


Ha ha.
I like Cotton.
Liberals don’t like Cotton - we get that.
And if you think a few liberals finding him “creepy” or “weird” is going to change opinions, well, LOL!!
And, anyone who uses the term “ahole” needs to grow up.


Plenty grown up, btw. Would you rather I say "asshole"? Ok. Asshole. B


Still immature. People who use profanity to express themselves are either immature, or they are lacking in vocabulary.
But, carry on.


Ok Grandma. My vocab got me throu Harvard, but you go on with your miss manners rules. I don't curse in court, but I'm a litigator, we're kind of a cutesy bunch.


"Cursey" not cutesy. Hah!

As a girl from the Midwest, I was initially shocked at the language typical of lawyers and Biglaw. The big city has different standards of language.

Is there someone from 8th grade posting on here about what terms are "cool" to say? Get back to class mister! And you two arguing about swear words: get back to class immediately or I'm calling your parents!

Things have devolved pretty badly when a supposed 8th grader needs to tell supposed grown-ups how to behave.

He doesn't need to. He just wants to.

I think it's a wonderful tribute that in a thread about a whack job we are writing like a bunch of whack jobs. A regular Cotton Club!

This “whack job,” as you call him, has accomplished quite a bit in his 37 years.
More accomplished, no doubt, than 99% of the posters on DCUM.
Guess that makes the rest of you bigger “whack jobs.”

You can add "becoming national laughingstock" to his list of accomplishments.

No idea, and I didn't work there, but Google reveals articles indicating that it might have had a little something to do with wanting to serve in the military. I know that's hard to understand for most people here.


Actually, Google reveals that after graduating from law school, Tehran Tom clerked for the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals, which is a one year commitment, before joining Gibson Dunn. Then, within a period of about two-years, he leaves Biglaw as a first year associate with virtually no meaningful litigation experience to join a pedigreed DC litigation boutique firm with deep conservative ties, only to join the Army, but not through the JAG program, in which event he would have been commissioned as a Captain. Not too many Lieutenants with a Harvard law degree and a stint as a law clerk. I find all of this quite strange.

He probably didn't want to be a JAG officer.

He earned a Ranger tab while in the Army. Ranger has a 50% washout rate. It's grueling training.

NP. I detect a hint of sour grapes as well.
