[...] Stories — true or not — of antiwar protesters insulting or spitting on troops during the Vietnam War persist to this day to cling to the Left and fuel a belief that liberals “hate the military,” but on the whole this is nonsense. Since the invasion of Iraq, most of us leftie bloggers have been respectful of the troops and are careful to aim our criticism of the war at the White House and the Secretary of Defense, plus the SecDef’s civilian minions. Nor have I seen much hostility toward the military from the antiwar left these days. The only exception I am aware of are incidents of students harassing military recruiters on campus. As I wrote here, For the record, I disagree with the students’ position. The military services are not our enemies; they are not the ones who make decisions to wage unjust wars. Blame the bleeping idiot civilians running the military for that. As long as the recruiters are not press-ganging students into boot camp, I say leave ‘em be. [...]

[...] Still, the anger thing does worry me. I am not saying we don’t have a right to be angry. And I have argued many times that the righties have us beat in the hate and fear departments. I get angry, too. But I think it’s possible that this angry left meme, as unfair as it is, could hurt us. (Since when is swift-boating fair?) And, as I argued here, displays of anger are counterproductive to persuasion. Cohen is right about the antiwar wing of the Democratic Party helping to elect Richard Nixon. I remember it well. [...]

I know this is off topic, but I thought it important, so here goes..
Jeb Bush visited Iraq and Afghanistan this past (Easter) weekend, he also toured several Tsunami ravaged areas shortly after that horrific event.Jeb Says he has no plans to run for president in ‘08.
Bunch 0′crap, he will be installed next. Better start hammering on this issue before it’s too late. Jeb is way smarter than George, and far slicker, he is also a member of the PNAC.
Falwell stated the plan on “Hardball with Chris Matthews” several years ago, which is to keep the Bush family in the white house.
George Walker, Jeb, then George P. This means more than 16 more years of the Bush dynasty.

Right wingers will do almost anything in the defense of cheap labor unregulated capitalism and cheap labor government.

If Malkin lived in the land of her ancestors she would have defended Ferdinand Marcos and encouraged Marcos’ thugs to dsicourage people voting against amrcos back in the 70’s and 80’s

Michelle Malkin would never join up to ‘defend her country’ because she is ideologically enamored of terrorist tactics.. She loves destruction for destruction’s sake.

I read some of the threat comments posted by Malkin’s pathetic followers…… what does the ugliness of those unhinged souls say about her as a ‘leader’…….she dredges the bottom hoping to be important, but only succeeds in sinking into slime of her own making……hopefully she will be stopped before someone gets hurt. If not…..It would be justice if her slime pool turns into quicksand.

a pundit?.. She’s closer to a geek.. I think Jane Hamsher appropriately labeled her a screech monkey. In the world of blogs, if you dont have talent you have to resort to gimicktry in order to make a name for yourself. Michelle Malkin should be glad she didn’t choose the porn industry as a vocation, cause if she did, she’d be making scat videos or sharing her billing with a burro.

Update: Malkin is countdowns worst person in the world.

Just the sort of publicity a filthy fascist nobody dreams of. Who f#%kin cares what she says anyway? These rightwingnts will choke on their own bullshit eventually.

It’s OK for Malkin to post peoples numbers but she won’t let us post on her site. What is she afraid of?

Wow Maha you’ve arrived.

You have some rightwingnut troll, posting peoples e-mails on his pretend pundit site. Well I guess those rightwingnuts don’t really believe in the 4th amendment, see “Terrorist Surveillance Program”. What a piece of crap.
