Carnival of the Smear Job

A blog called the People’s Republic of Seabrook has posted something called The Carnival of the Vanities, #122. A statement on their site reads:

This website is best viewed with an open mind, an appreciation for Progressive ideals, and a healthy sense of humor. Lighten up, y’all!!

Then, to show what a light, perky sense of humor they have, they accuse LGF of “peddling hate speech,” based on a slobbery post from the left’s dumbest blogger, Oliver “Smirky” Willis:

Oliver Willis poses this question about Little Green Footballs: Ain’t They Amusing? Well, when you peddle what many define as hate speech, I’m not certain that amusing has anything to do with it.

Of course, not to be denied his two cents, Charles Johnson at Little Green Footballs counters with Radical Islam Wishes You A Happy MLK Day. Gee, I didn’t know they cared.

That was really humorous, how they smeared me for posting about a real, fact-based, disturbing case of a radical Islamic group coopting MLK Day. Apparently, just quoting the title (and it’s not even my title, but the title of Debbie Schlussel’s article) is all the proof they need for their light-hearted accusation. It wouldn’t do to actually read the article.

 Frank says:

Mr Zappa, I am astounded at the courtesy and soft voiced nature of the comments of my friend, the Senator from Tennessee. I can only say that I find your statement to be boorish, incredibly and insensitively insulting to the people who were here previously, that you could manage to give the First Amendment of the Constitution of the United States a bad name, if I felt you had the slightest understanding of it, which I do not. -- - Senator Slade Gorton
