Micah Wright

Who is Micah Wright? Vinny first alerted me to this story and pointed me to Michele’s site - - where she is busily tearing Micah Wright into tiny little lying pieces.

A visit over to Michele’s site answers the question - Who is Micah Wright. She has literally chewed this guy up and spit him out.

Micah Wright is an artist. He made quite a name for himself with these posters.

He’s also a leftist anti-war zealot who claimed to be a former Army Ranger and used that story to support his anti-war rhetoric. Except for one small detail…..Micah lied. He lied a WHOLE lot about a WHOLE lotta things. He never was an Army Ranger. The stories he told of heroism and service to this country in Panama were a farce. He told some whoppers, too. He pretended to be some kind of former war/military hero type — then used the argument of “You can’t possibly speak about the war unless you’ve served” argument that you see so often. He used his ‘experience’ to push his anti-war, leftist agenda through the mainstream media. And, of course, they ate it up like pigs at a trough.

Give Michele’s site a visit - - there’s no way I could attempt to say it, or cover all the details, in the way that she has. She’s pipin’ hot pissed off.

    Wow. Its amazing that someone would have the balls to do that. Did he make the posters? Or just spoof them (steal and reword)?

    The posters are re-done. The original art is public domain..free use. He made a name for himself by publishing them with captions that push his anti-war agenda.

    The lie here is that he never was an Army Ranger — he made that whole part up…told tall tales about it…pushed his anti-war agenda through the mainstream media….carried on for two years that way. It seems, he made that whole thing up.

    I know there are people who go to all lengths to deliver their message right or wrong and yet nothing ever stops them or brings them down. When I read of these things I understand why we face all the issues we do today.

    Just one little nit to pick: I don’t think Wright should be accorded the term “artist,” considering all he did was Phototshop someone else’s work to change the captions.

    Sheesh.

    Nit pik away, Casey :) Actually, I do believe you are correct on that - - he’s not an artist at all.

    My bad - - so spank me ;)

    An eBay auction for Micah Wright’s credibility ended with a price of 1 cent and zero bidders.

    You might remember Wright as the guy who lied about being an Army Ranger to help promote his anti-war agenda. Turns out he wasn’t an Army Ranger, a J…
