For reasons that are clear only in his addled brain, Andrew Breitbart decided to reprise the comical, profanity-laced tirade he unleased last week to John Cook at Gawker for his column in today's Washington Times ... sans the profanity.
It's hilarious.
In its obvious zeal to create a one-party state, the Democrat-Media Complex (the natural coalition of the Democratic Party and the mainstream media) last week seized upon the horrific murder of a security guard at the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington as an opportunity to ascribe blame to the American conservative movement and to further marginalize the Republican Party.
First, that's Democratic-Media Complex to you, bub. Second, the beauty of the marginalization of the Republican Party is that you really don't have to do anything except sit back and enjoy the show. And third, what Breitbart and his band of fellow-whiners seem to miss is that it isn't about blaming the conservative movement for the shooting at the Holocaust Museum, it's pointing out their idiocy for dismissing the Department of Homeland Security report (pdf) that warned of increasing violence from rightwing extremists - a report that Republicans, for reasons only they can explain, took as a personal attack on them.
And it seems that there is no one more defensive on this than Andrew Breitbart. The best part is when he says:
... the right wouldn't be so crass or foolish to try to blame the political left for the existence of - or motivation behind - haters like Mr. von Brunn.
This in the middle of a column where he cites Markos Moulitsas, Arianna Huffington, the Daily Kos convention (what's that?), Cindy Sheehan, and "the dominant "multicultural" mind-set at the liberal American college campus and on prominent left-wing blogs" as sharing "eerie similarities" with Mr. von Brunn.
And for those who missed it, here's the shorter version of Breitbart's column.
John Cook, this is Andrew Breitbart. I'm basically fuming and I'm reading your shit at Gawker right now, saying that this guy's a rightwing extremist. And it's such a fucking slander on people like me. This guy went after, this guy was after neocons like me who are conservative. He had the address of The Weekly Standard there. Conservatives believe in individual liberty, they don't believe in group's rights. This guy's a multiculturalist, just like the black studies and the lesbian studies majors on college campuses. This guy was a 9/11 truther. This guy's hardly a rightwinger. This guy's political philosophy is more akin to the drivel that you hear on a college campus that delineates us by group, not by individuality. It's the exact opposite of my political philosophy. It's deeply offensive that you would use this for political gain. I could care less how you describe me in regards to Drudge or anything, but for you to put on me this fuck-face crime against humanity is so fucking beyond the pale.
