Reading those comments to the post was a mistake. One of them asked something like “How can people side with the conservative movement and keep a straight face?” To that I would respond, “How can people side with the leftist movement and have a brain?”
Oh, that’s right. Sheep don’t need to think for themselves.

Boing Boing: the online lounge for liberal arts majors. You think these people are venomous now, just wait a couple years when they realize how worthless that degree in ethnic gender studies is.
I love terms like “Islamofascism.” Coined by people who have seemingly never bothered to learn about actual schools of political thought (like fascism) or about the history of these schools, so they apparently need to make up new words to cover the gap in their knowledge.
The Ann Coulter poster is yours. Take it. Rape it.
Advocating rape!?!?!
Wow, these people have hit rock bottom.

Just think: they were all in the same room at once for this photo.
What an opportunity.
Can you imagine what howling and screaming there would be if one of us said that about a room full of Kos, Huffington, Franken, Maddow, Olbermann, Hightower, Chomsky, Churchill, etc? Media Matters would make it front page material.

If the defenders of the “Jena Six” assault suspects are going to claim that the nooses hung from the infamous tree (months earlier) as a justification for that assault, then, shouldn’t they condemn the idea of lynching conservatives….

They can hang it on the wall behind them when they’re flipping burgers.
This is my favorite from the comments there. Emphasis mine.

Shalabi> Kinda [gutsy] saying that whole “had me at the first seven words” thing considering there are two black individuals on the poster.
They’re not individuals, they’re conservatives, it’s completely the opposite.
Blowback

Heh. Walked right into that one! Copywriters of the world, here’s a textbook example. Boing Boing was gentle on ye.

Yeah, can’t really blame Boing Boing for that.

BB commenter Nick D:
Not that the Muslim Brotherhood and Nazi Germany had a common history, mind you. Or that Islamism and Nazism are both thanatoid political movements. Nosiree…

If I can borrow a quote from Golda Mier…
We’ll only know civility in politics when liberals learn to love their children more than they hate conservatives.

Ah well, are we to expect intelligent comments from a site called “Boing Boing”?
