A Must Read
Unclaimed Territory - by Glenn Greenwald: Prominent right-wing blogger today calls for the murder of Supreme Court Justices - the Right fails to condemn it
Go ahead, click it. It's a good read even if it didn't out the blogfather of the lynch mob mentality embraced by right-wing blogistan.
Nor did they condemn another prominent right-wing blogger, Dean Esmay, when he presciently called for the hanging of NYT reporters way back in December, long before the johnny-came-lately noose advocates like Misha did so.Misha is of course the clever owner of Anti-Idiotarian Rottweiler who did a riff on that Oh, so funny T-shirt calling for the hanging of journalist by quipping:
Try doing anything to those mutilating darlings of the Supremes in order to extract life-saving intel from them, and then wait for the Supreme Whores to decide that you were “humiliating” them in doing so.Last I heard, threatening or advocating the murder of a federal official like a Supreme Court Justice was the crime -- not the issuing of a judicial opinion, or writing an article, that you don't agree with.
Five ropes, five robes, five trees.
Some assembly required.
I guess it's okay as long as it doesn't hurt Bush's poll numbers.
