Okrent Catches On! 
From today's Public Editor's column in the New York Times:

But before I turn over the podium, I do want you to know just how debased the level of discourse has become. When a reporter receives an e-mail message that says, "I hope your kid gets his head blown off in a Republican war," a limit has been passed.

That's what a coward named Steve Schwenk, from San Francisco, wrote to national political correspondent Adam Nagourney several days ago because Nagourney wrote something Schwenk considered (if such a person is capable of consideration) pro-Bush. Some women reporters regularly receive sexual insults and threats. As nasty as critics on the right can get (plenty nasty), the left seems to be winning the vileness derby this year.


Yep. But there was never any doubt about that.

It's the left, after all, who are shooting up opposing campaign headquarters and assaulting convention delegates, too.

The left has sold its soul.

Splash, out
