So I propose that you, me, us, dub her ‘Ma-shill Malkin’ until the name sticks to her shoe like a piece of discarded gum.

She’s a nasty cunt and I hope she gets what’s coming to her in this life so we can all witness a little justice.

Read her stuff, and then read the stuff the Nazi Party hacks wrote at that time. You’d see the same thing, practically word-for-word.

She’s no different from Coulter, just an asshole attention-whore who’s saying whatever she things will get her the most attention. The thing that would drive her nuts is if everyone just ignored her.

Which is what I am going to do, starting right now.

Just goes to show the complete and utter lack of critical thinking posessed by even the leading right-wing pundits.

Now, if the irony did not escape her, but she wrote that article anyway, then she’s counting on her readers not to notice. In that case I can only assume Malkin has a very low opinion of the intelligence of her readsership, perhaps bordering on contempt…which would lead me to beleive that she knows what she’s doing and is in it purely for the money/fame and couldn’t care how odious she has to be to get it.

Twisted.

And yes, it’s exactly the same argument as “If you haven’t done anything wrong, you have nothing to hide.” Aside from the creepy authoritarianism, it’s just wrong on the merits: everyone has something to hide, and in 99 cases out of a hundred, what I want to hide is really nobody’s damn business.

Oh, and Kathleen: But cops can’t stop you without probable cause. And if some one can’t stop you, then they can’t stop you from running from them.

The word “can’t” as used here breaks my heart. You’re right, they can’t — as in, they don’t have any solid legal standing to do so. But they certainly can, and too often their method of stopping you is permanent.

Yes, well, the Post isn’t “bemoaning [its] circulation” because it’s got Uncle Rupert propping it up, paying handsomely for the privilege of having an editorial presence in New York. Its circulation is irrelevant.

Give thanks we live in America, land of the free, home of the brave, where the media’s elite journalists can leak top-secret information with impunity, win Pulitzer Prizes, cash in on lucrative book deals, routinely insult their readership and viewership, broadcast enemy propaganda, turn a blind eye to the victims of jihad, and cast themselves as oppressed victims on six-figure salaries.

Glass half-full a bit, Michelle? Can’t win fer losin’, can ya?

And you know, I have been arrested for drugs more than a few times, and every time it was after an illegal search. And every time the police report said the confiscated materials were in plain sight. And this is the freedom I want to get back. Whew….

I once had a Miami cop search my car. I had been pulled over for… well, I never did figure that out. Possibly for being a longhaired younger guy in an old shitty car, I dunno.

He asked permission to search the car. I asked, “what if I say no?” He got really smug and said that refusal to grant permission to search gave him probable cause to search. Classic circular argument. Then he proceeded to search, dumping everything from the glovebox onto the ground, emptying the trunk, etc, all the while saying, “Just tell me where the drugs are. I know you’ve got them.”

It was pathetic. He found nothing, of course. He never wrote me a ticket, either.

And no, this wasn’t Miami in 1968, or ’72. This was in 1991.
