I don't disagree, they're about as icky as anyone you could find. In fact, I don't mind saying many of them (Ledeen, Malkin, etc.) are the dregs of public discourse in the U.S. And you can quote me. Obviously I don't feel that way about Cooper and Corn; we've been around the block on that already.
I have a different take on your involvement than Cooper's (and Corn's to a lesser extent.) Cooper is evolving rapidly in the same direction that Hitchens did. This move for him is a statement to the left: "Fuck You". Corn is a little harder to figure out. He is a red-baiter, but seems more like Alterman who has also sought money and exposure on places like Dennis Miller's TV show. I doubt that you or Corn or Cooper will be editorially controlled over there because that would undercut your value as window-dressing. I suspect that the people behind Pajamas Media want a kind of legitimacy that liberal participation can give them. If you really need the money, there's nothing I can say to dissuade you. Just make sure to wear a condom.
