hilarious. appalling. hilarious. appalling.

I hate getting sucked into considering Ann Coulter. Or Matt Drudge, for that matter, but, via Tresy at Eschaton, I took the bait:

"The myth of 'McCarthyism' is the greatest Orwellian fraud of our times. Liberals are fanatical liars, then as now. Everything you think you know about McCarthy is a hegemonic lie."

...and...

"Despite the left's creation of a myth to defeat legitimate charges of treason, McCarthy had so badly stigmatized Communism, his victory survived him. In his brief fiery ride across the landscape, Joe McCarthy bought America another thirty years. For this, he sacrificed his life, his reputation, his name. The left cut down a brave man, but not before the American people heard the truth."

God curse those liberals for pouring all that booze down Gin-Mill Joe's neck. I swear, sometimes I think she's actually a piece of meta-satire whose strings are being pulled by Al Franken. "No! Wait! What if we crossed Peggy Noonan with ANDREW DICE CLAY?! Can you IMAGINE?!"

Yes, better than I can imagine what sort of creature would actually fit Coulter's definition of a "liberal." Speaking from what I consider to be a liberal viewpoint, if the slander and ruin of Senator Joseph P. McCarthy, (R) OH, is one of "liberalism's" greatest crimes/achievements, I hardly think that makes "us" powerful enough for Coulter to waste ink denouncing. I can think of 10 things I'd rather have had "liberalism" accomplish, and with the unlimited power and bottomless depravity she accords to "liberals," why didn't they happen? And why am I not on a Ukrainian commune, high on opium and getting a blow-job right now?
