Everyone's in a tizzy over Deborah Howell's latest screed attacking lefty bloggers as nasty and uncivil pottymouths.
Setting aside the fact that this is awfully rich coming from a woman who is herself known to cuss a bit (in fact, more than a bit), do bear in mind that the GOP/Media Complex has always gone out of its way to smear the left, while carefully ignoring the lies and incivility of the right-wingers.
Remember Mickey Kaus' attacking Bartcop.com as advocating violence -- and his frantic search through years of the chatroom postings before he could find ONE single post that even came close to backing up his pulledoutmyass.com statements? And this even as Kaus touted the wonders of Lucianne.com, on which death threats against liberals were and are a daily, if not hourly, occurrence.
So people, don't start falling for the media's bilge. They are just looking for a reason -- ANY reason -- to deflect attention from their conjoined-twin relationship with the Republican Party.
