Ignorant, self-righteous, xenophobic, and built to stay that way

HOW ABOUT A NICE BIG GLASS OF…

I suppose it would be just as easy to ignore a reactionary troll like Michelle Malkin. If she actually has anything to add to the public discourse, it’s certainly not immediately obvious.

In the wake of the New York times revealing that the US government has been sifting through the financial transactions of American citizens, Malkin has now taken it upon herself to once again pillory Liberals as anti-American and pro-terrorist. To call this simplistic and downright ignorant wouldn’t begin to do justice to the depths of her pandering to the frothing-at-the-mouth Right-wing nutjobs who make up her readership.

Still drinking the Kool-Aid after all these years, I see….

Man, I never cease to be amazed at how ignorance, reaction, and the willingness to sacrifice liberty for security makes Conservatives feel as if they’re infinitely morally superior to us mere mortal Liberals. Yeah, it ain’t easy being so virulently anti-American (not to mention pro-terrorist). Thank God for brave souls like Michelle Malkin who are willing to expose our treachery and lack of patriotism.

Whatever….

Rather than consider the legitimate reasons for notifying Americans of what their government is doing on their behalf and in their name, Malkin has once again chosen the route of reaction, which may provide immediate gratification, but does nothing to advance public understanding of the legitimare reasons for disclosing news of the SWIFT program. Then again, reacting and drumming up outrage sure is a lot more fun, and certainly a lot more satisfying that having an informed discussion. It’s so much easier when you can paint your adversaries as un-American and pro-terror.

Jeebus, what a #@$(&^% troll….
