- The right in general
- Their tendency to cry to mommy when the big ole' lefties are mean to them in particular
- Michelle Malkin in specific.
Neiwert is impassioned, but he also has information on his side, which makes for an irresitable combination. Enjoy. Here's how he wraps up today's installment, to whet your appetite:
...if Michelle Malkin -- or anyone genuinely concerned about the state of the nation's discourse -- were seeking answers about why we're seeing this kind of response from the left, she would have to seriously examine the effects of the conservative movement's rhetoric of the past decade.
What they would find is that people on the right have been repeatedly, and aggressively, poking their opponents in the eye with a sharp stick.
And now they're acting all innocent and wounded when folks on the Left respond with howls of somtimes inchoate anger.
As we'll see, there have been a lot of these sharp eliminationist sticks being wielded by the right in recent years, and well before. And no one -- no one -- has been reining them in on the right. Indeed, not only are Malkin's claims to the contrary thin and completely unsupported, she has herself been leading the stick-poking brigade.
