Following up on the posts below about the Right Blogosphere's claim to Superiority over the Left Blogosphere, on the grounds that Conservatives Don't Say "Fuck."
On Memorandum right now, there are two top stories.
The Right Blogosphere is obsessed with this story (Gavin provides the short version here). This story of course lacks any political significance. Nevertheless, the Right is in quite the tizzy over it, up to and including this kind of thing -- whipping themselves up into a Righteous Jihad that will include everything from making every last possible scrap of information about the writer public, to barely disguised hopes that the writer will be "punished" by the other members of his unit.
But they don't say "fuck!"
On the other hand, Left bloggers are interested in the subpoena issued to Karl Rove as well as possible perjury charges against Alberto Gonzalez. You know, trivial stuff like that!
But some of them are probably saying "fuck."
So, clearly, it's obvious who is Serious and who is merely filled with Hate.
Yep.
Well, like the definition judicial activism, it appears that the wungnutter's definition of "hate speech" amounts to "speachifying I don't like" (With apologies to Lawyers, Guns and Money)

I would politely suggest that those high-spirited, committed men and women who are so intent on an ugly fate for anyone who reports information they find disagreeable might best serve the public good by performing sexual intercourse with themselves. Politely.
