The Salivating Morons Who Make Up the Lynch Mob

The Mullahs* at the Daily Kos are calling for JIHAD:

As you've probably noticed, there have been several Alan Greenspan-related posts on the main page in just the past day or so. In one of those threads, blogswarmer Bob Brigham suggested that we "unleash the blogosphere" on Greenspan. It's a brilliant idea - no one is more worthy of having a halo-ectomy than St. Alan - so let's have at it...
And for those of you who want to really get down & dirty in the trenches, we can turn this into a one-degree-of-separation venture. That is, if you can find similar material for anyone who is closely linked to Greenspan, that's fair game, too. Good examples would be Greenie's idol, the nutbag "objectivist" Ayn Rand, and Andrea Mitchell, his NBC reporter wife. (An aside: We can debate the merits of this approach all you like, but suffice it to say, there is no question that Republicans do the same crap to us all the time. If you still want to play by the Marquess of Queensberry rules, fine - but I've moved on to brass knuckles.) >>>
Charming marching orders from the new Taliban*- but really- it isn't a smear campaign? :
<<<
And, to make it amply clear, this is emphatically not a call for a "smear" campaign. This is a call to reveal the truth about Alan Greenspan (and his associates). >>>
Nah- breaking out the 'brass knuckles' in an all out assault on the Chairman of the Fed, his wife, and a dead libertarian isn't a smear campaign at all.
Here is my challenge to the blogosphere. Let's watch these wingnuts as they wallow in the cesspool, and every time they take a Greenspan quote out of context, recite a Greenspan decision without providing the necessary context, or attack him or his wife personally, let's note it and correct the situation.
I'm tired of these loudmouth bully boys trying to ruin people because it is 'the same thing the Rethuglicans do.' At least now we know that we have found Steve Lovelady's salivating morons.
* If Robert Byrd can go into the well of the Senate and call Republicans Nazis and you wingnuts lap it up, I have no problem calling you guys what you are...
