Markos Zuniga is not only unapologetic about his sick comments; he’s gloating that in today’s brave new Democratic fever swamp, he won’t have to suffer any repercussions.

So I said something pretty stupid last week. I served up the wingnuts a big, juicy softball. They went into a tizzy, led by Instapundit.

And for a while, I was actually pretty worried.

But the final tally was — about 30 hate-filled emails, about 15,000 hate-filled visitors, and the pulling of three advertising spots that are going to be replaced in less than a week. (I had two emails today about people wanting to advertise despite the controversy.)

That was it. Oh, they’re doing their best to turn me into the devil, and they’re making racist comments about my heritage and family and threatening to kick my ass — you know, typical right-wing shit.

But if that’s the best they can throw at me, I’ll simply echo Kerry.

Bring it on.

You didn’t say something “stupid,” Zuniga. You said something petty, disgusting, and hateful, and it doesn’t surprise me at all to see you acting this way. I hope one day you meet the families of those men face to face, you rat.

Notice how Zuniga paints himself as the victim. Never mind the four dead and mutilated Americans he continues to dishonor and mock. It’s all about Markos Zuniga and his brave stand against the “wingnuts.”

In the 21st century, this is what the left has become.
