I've been thinking a lot about all the venom in the blogosphere. The Right is always condemning the Left for not condemning their loons (Deb Frisch) and the Left does the same to the Right. (Like this Greenwald piece illustrates.)

I think we all spend too much time demanding apologies and pronouncements from each other. It's stupid. Just because I don't denounce something stupid or evil that Misha/Malkin/Coulter says doesn't mean that I agree with it. It more likely means I didn't read it. I think the same goes on the Left. Just because Kos or one of his minions says something stupid or evil, we shouldn't expect every Lefty blogger to pronounce their disgust. We shouldn't tar them for silence.

It is ridiculous. I didn't get into the Deb Frisch/Jeff Goldstein drama because I had better things to do. I do understand why so many bloggers went nuts, it's why I would go nuts. Not because this Deb person was a threat, she wasn't. It was not because she spewed vile crap like a moonbat. Nope. It wasn't because she was on a mission to "get banned" by the infamous and dastardly funny Goldstein.

It was because she brought his two year old child into her raving. She said some nasty things and I have no problem with nasty. I do, however, have a problem when people go after the children of their target.

Children are out of bounds and going after them will bring on a shitstorm. Parents, regardless of political affiliation, don't tolerate having their children attacked.

Keep your dirty fingers (literally and figuratively) off our kids.

Here's the quote again:

"The president made a big deal about bringing the Iraqi prime minister to address Congress and met with him yesterday. The Iraqi prime minister is an anti-Semite. We don't need to spend $200 and $300 and $500 billion dollars bringing democracy to Iraq to turn it over to people who believe Israel doesn't have the right to defend itself and to refuse to condemn Hezbollah..."

So we now measure how much we spend helping people based on their opinion of Israel and her right to defend herself? If you don't like Israel, you get none of our money?

Sweet! I'm with that Howard Dean. Let's start right here in America. Let us go one by one and poll people in America.

I'm pretty sure the Education system will get a much needed revamp when we ask all those Lefty teachers their opinion on Israel.

I guess it didn't occur to Howie that Maliki didn't or couldn't condemn Hezbollah without losing his head, literally, when he got back home. Did Howie give a shout out to the anti-semetic leftist liberals in Congress for refusing to vote for House Resolution 921?

You know what that bill was, don't ya? Condemning the recent attacks against the State of Israel, holding terrorists and their state-sponsors accountable for such attacks, supporting Israel’s right to defend itself, and for other purposes

You'll recall that I'm sick and tired of being condemned for not condemning someone else. So, I don't give two shits about Howard Dean and who he is condemning.

I do find it funny when Republicans are called hypocrites for defending Maliki. Yes, I am a hypocrite for thinking that getting beheaded over a couple words that would change absolutely nothing is a bad thing.

Kiss my ass. Seriously. Kiss my smooth, creamy, white ass. I'm not going to tell someone that he should get himself killed because we spent money freeing them from a dictator.

Freedom still means something. It doesn't mean that someone should sacrifice himself for what YOU BELIEVE.

Don't like it? Move to France, I hear they really love Israel over there.
