Right on, petit. You tell ‘em. And I am not, repeat NOT, related in any way whatsoever to Mikekoshi, Nofanofcablecos or Hichael Miltzik.

I swear.

Too bad Hiltzik is right on this one, but for different reasons:

In language reeking with hatred, Heritage Foundation TownHall readers impolitely informed me that opposing the invasion of Iraq is identical to opposing America, that Bush is the greatest American leader in history and everyone who disagrees with him should be shot before they cause America to lose another war.

TownHall’s readers were sufficiently frightening to convince the Heritage Foundation to stop posting my columns. [Contact Heritage]

Bush’s conservative supporters want no debate. They want no facts, no analysis. They want to denounce and to demonize the enemies that the Hannitys, Limbaughs, and Savages of talk radio assure them are everywhere at work destroying their great and noble country.

I remember when conservatives favored restraint in foreign policy and wished to limit government power in order to protect civil liberties.

Today’s young conservatives are Jacobins determined to use government power to impose their will at home and abroad.

Where did such “conservatives” come from?

Mary Katherine is one such “conservative.” Y’all should know better.

It is indeed heartening to see all these people, myself included, and I am not either of the previous two, I swear, to come to Michael Hiltzik’s defense.

Again, I am not Michael Hiltzik or Nofanofcablecos or Mikekoshi. Nope. Never seen them before in my life.

I concur with Mikekoshi’s expert opinion, which is the same as my own, although we are not, I repeat not, the same person.

Hey, it was in fact realism, not schadenfreude.

How long before Mikekoshi comes in to defend Hiltzik? Oh wait, never mind.

She’s funny. Payback on pompous clowns is always fun, especially when it involves hammering them with their own words.

Side note, the 2005 vs. 2006 headlines and ledes for the various papers really make her point undeniable. Tone and groupthink are undeniable.
