"Thug" is the new N-Word.
You have to follow the links to determine the source of the controversy (James Rowen never called anybody a racist, incidentally, so why he's supposed to apologize for something he didn't say is anyone's guess) but the funniest bit so far* is critical-thinker-for-hire Brian Fraley howling about "intimidation" and vowing not to be "silenced" by phantasmagorial bugaboos.
It's a familiar refrain and a local conservative favorite.
* Next to the argumentum ad schickelgruber, of course.
Earlier: I prefer "ruffian."
Plaisted does a great job of throwing sinkers right over the plate that the right wing attempts to swing at -- and miss.
ReplyDeleteI got the feeling, reading boy-Fraley's comment, that he thought he was channeling the Rev. King.
ReplyDeleteToo bad the channel was turned to the Michael Savage.
Plaisted really is the best.
