When asked about Blumenthal's DP article, Dershowitz looked exasperated and listed all the ways in which that article got everything wrong.  For example, Dershowitz is opposed to torture.  Dershowitz has called for something called "torture warrants" to ensure that extreme measures be applied only in extraordinary circumstances and with the most extraordinary of safeguards.  Blumenthal's  distorted analysis?  Dershowitz supports torture. 
Much more newsworthy than the silly spitballs Blumenthal threw with his screaming article was Dershowitz's conviction that Blumenthal and his buddies at Media Matters (a media watchdog organization affiliated with the Democratic party and which has recently been widely accused of engaging in anti-Semitism) were going to cost this president the election.
Asked at the pre-event press conference whether he had seen Blumenthal's article, Dershowitz's immediate and angry response was: "I have, and let me tell you, Max Blumenthal and Media Matters will be singlehandedly responsible for [Obama] losing this election.  They [the Democrats] cannot win the election and keep this affiliation with them [Media Matters]."
