The deranged left - helping out Republicans

Yesterday, Blazing Cat Fur commented on the CBC’s Heather Mallick’s offensive, certifiably deranged rant about Sarah Palin and her supporters - and on Mallick’s defense of it on the certifiably loony left blog the Rabble.

Today [Ian_QT at] The Devil’s Kitchen observes on a similar (but less offensive) form of idiocy coming from a U.K. Guardian columnist.

A hectoring and pompous piece of writing, headed 'The world's verdict will be harsh if the US rejects the man it yearns for' seems almost calculated to anger American readers.

If [they] think that lecturing Americans from across the Atlantic on the merits of Barack Obama and the evils of voting Republican is going to do their preferred candidate any favours whatsoever then, to put it mildly, they need to go see a shrink!

... like it or not, ... the people of London, Ljubljana and Luanda do not get a say in the Presidential race - it's the same old swing staters, soccer moms and slackers as last time around. In the intervening 4 years, it seems you and your colleagues have learnt precisely nothing from the Clark County fuckup. That is, sometimes it's best to "butt out"!

Ian The Devil’s right, of course, but let’s hope the CBC, Heather Mallick, the Guardian, et al don’t butt out and keep up their ‘good’ work.

I have to think the Mallicks of the world are simply too self absorbed to ever grasp that they are in fact aiding the conservative cause.

Heather Mallick typifies the arrogance and self absorbing haughtiness of the left and makes me cringe that she actually thinks she speaks for me.

Hi, just a heads-up.

The post about Jonathan Freedland at The Devil's Kitchen wasn't written by The Devil, but by one of his minions (i.e. me).
