Sean Macomber, on an expedition somewhat reminiscent of Dante Alligheri’s, travels deep into leftwing blogdom to find out what they’re saying about us conservatives. Here is some of what he came back with:
“They’re vicious, violent, and unprincipled, just like unaffiliated muggers,” he wrote, adding, in retort to one conservative who protested, “We are not animals,” “Well, you’re sure not human…not if you can still call yourself a conservative after seeing what your people really have in mind for this country. I won’t say ‘our country’ as I’m now ashamed to admit that I was born American, and technically still am one, although I’ve washed my hands of your nightmare psychologically, and soon, physically as well.”
This prompted yet another commenter to relate a lesson from his father — a “very smart man,” we are assured — who taught him long ago, “people like these right-wing pundits have souls that look like maggot-infested corpses, you know, like the ones you always see in horror movies.”
PROGRESS! MAGGOT-INFESTED OR NOT, a liberal acknowledges the existence of a conservative soul!
This was about the assault on Randi Rhodes that it turns out never took place.
I’m going to go out on a limb here and predict that the people who thought these unkind thoughts about conservatives were not the same people who were concerned about why Kathleen Willey’s cat was killed and why her tires were slashed.
