The Home of Tax Free Asskicking
Cartoon violence | Feb 10th 2006
Michelle Malkin’s orgasm over the muslim cartoon riots shows no sign of abating. Frankly, I find the right wing’s free speech outrage to be pretty disingenuous. Fighting for free speech only counts if you disagree with what’s being said. Malkin is not offended by the Muhammed/bomber cartoons. Let’s see how she likes these apples!
Wingnut-bashing aside, I totally support Denmark. They have nothing to apologize for. After the snowstorm, I’m buying some Havarti.

Good point, and closely related to the fact that the right to freedom of speech is *only* for speech that is generally detested. You don’t need a free speech right for bland, uncontroversial speech.

This is what happens when people who don’t understand irony get in a media war with people who do. – Col. Boris (http://boomka.org/blog/?p=3#comment-64)
I’ve been looking for the source of a quote attributed to Voltaire, ‘When a person loses his sense of humour he soon becomes ridiculous.’ (Maybe if I read French?)
