When Moonbats Go Bad... I Mean, Worse
As a byproduct of her promising new book Unhinged: Exposing Liberals Gone Wild, Michelle Malkin has generated a disturbing collection of moonbat mugshots (thanks to V the K for the tip). The day after Halloween was an apt time for her to post this chilling rogue's gallery of moonbats run afoul of the law.
As Malkin points out, "Critics will argue that these fine folks do not represent mainstream liberalism and that Republicans are just as bad." But as she also points out:
It's not Republicans taking chainsaws to Democrat campaign signs and running down political opponents with their cars. It's not conservatives burning Democrats in effigy, defacing war memorials, and supporting the fragging of American troops. And it's not conservatives producing a bullet-riddled bumper crop of assassination-themed musicals, books and collectible stamps.
It's not a Republican who invoked Pol Pot and Nazis and Soviet gulag operators when discussing American troops at Guantanamo Bay. That was Democrat Senator Dick Durbin of Illinois, who kept his Senate Minority Whip position and who continues to blame an "orchestrated right-wing attack" for what came out of his mouth.
It's not Republicans who suggested that President Bush had advance knowledge of the September 11th attacks or that Osama bin Laden has already been captured. Those notions were advanced by former Secretary of State Madeline Albright and current Democratic National Committee chairman Howard Dean.
And it wasn't a Republican who asserted that the war Iraq was "just as bad as six million Jews being killed." That was Democrat Rep. Charlie Rangel, who has refused to apologize and whom no Democrat leader has denounced.
The views of unhinged liberals are no longer relegated to the private remarks of a few Democrat politicians or the bloviations of a few fringe figures on the far Left. The syndrome is far more pervasive, intense, and sanctimoniously self-delusional than anything on the Right.

Comments
I saw Ms. Malkin on Fox last night; we get Fox in Canada thank goodness. O'Reilly pushed her pretty hard and she responded very well with her thesis. And, that being that Moonbattery has oozed it's way into mainstream leftwing thinking. And, if you think it's done so in the USA; come visit Eastern Canada. It's gotten so bad I can't usually have a political discussion with lefties because things normally considered to be vitriol and slanderous, these folks simply view as unarguable fact; and their comments about American's in general, and Republicans specifically, are incredibly hatefull.
You should see them dance when I say, "Don't you think that you are being a bigot?" Now, as we all know, only Conservatives are bigots, so Canadian moonbats flip as soon as you even hint... or even whisper, that they might be bigotted. Try it sometime... but make sure you do it while standing behind a police officer... for your own safety.

Michele is pretty spot on in her assessment of the tactics employed by more and more on the left. I've never seen so many foul-mouthed, bile-spewing, vitriolic "peace activists" in my life. The extreme intimidation and threats on the lives of others is inexcusable.

Aw, man...
We don't need to do rinky-dink bullshit like slashing tires or sawing down capaign signs. That kind of stuff's for pussies, PEST victims, and other democrats.
We have real weapons, like Rove's mind-control rays, and special racially-biased meteorological phenomena.
Now if we could just develop hurricanes to target white democrats next time, and have them hit Boston, Berekely, and Seattle...
