Every now and again, you have to hand it to a polemicist. Here's one single sentence from Michelle Malkin's latest column:While most of us can agree that Michelle Malkin is a mindless twit who deserves some kind of infamous award, I wonder what Sully's real problem with her is. Sully is as big an imperialist war monger as anyone you will find in the Bush administration. His problem is Malkin represents the New Republican Party. With all the hand wringing about "Islamic Law" the reality is it is nothing more than Abrahamic Law, that is the old testiment. The same old testiment that the Radical Christian Fundementalists who have taken over the Republican Party use for their inspiration. Sully is really upset with the fact that the Republican Party is not much different than the Taliban and there is no place in that Republican Party for Andrew Sullivan.Perhaps too much drug-addled '60s nostalgia has burnt out the bleeding-hearts pacifists' brain cells.
One sentence; four cliche-ridden, playground insults. Can you beat it? Contestants can be nominated from either right or left; but the sentence must be entirely devised to insult; it should be completely devoid of originality; it must have at least two hoary, dead-as-a-Norwegian-parrot cliches; and it must assume that readers already agree with the writer. Arbitrary mean-spiritedness wins extra points. Nominations for the Malkin Award are now open.
I temporarily reopened Middle Earth Journal when Newshoggers shut it's doors but I was invited to Participate at The Moderate Voice so Middle Earth Journal is once again in hiatus.
