About this “hate site”

By Michelle Malkin • July 26, 2007 08:35 PM

My excellent comment moderator Rick Moran responds to nutroots accusations that MichelleMalkin.com is a “hate site” based on a few comments. Read the whole thing.

I second everything Rick says, and would add a few things:

If you’re going to get into it, the qualitative difference between blog comments on liberal blogs and my blogs is Grand Canyon-wide. A reminder: “Let’s sexually torture, rape, murder and dismember the Malkin family.” Just follow all the links in that post. Endless left-wing hate documented here and here and here.

Or go here or here .

Or just spend a little time mining comments threads at the top liberal blogs for fresh material. I’m sure it won’t be long before you trip on a C-word, racial slur, or threat. It’s par for the course:

Here. Here. Here. Here. Here. Here.

Hard to top this smear, though. And that was from a prominent left-wing blog. Not a comment. A blogger.

P.S. If you are not acquainted with my Terms of Use, go read them. That means you, nutroots trolls.

In defense of Hot Air, too, at Patterico’s.

Hey, DesertLover, que pasa. Is this MM.com or the DesertLove-Fest? What are we debating today? We all agree this is not a hate-site…Let’s move on…Anyone want to defend Al Gonzalez repeatedly lying to Congress?

Although I’ve noticed that any minor disagreement with this site’s POV is usually attacked by the more conservative commenters (ie anyone except for DarkKnight, MikeB, and myself), calling this a hate site is preposterous.

Rusty, did you ever consider that the people who defend the site’s POV are here because they agree with the site’s POV? I don’t come here to listen to Liberal, anti-American commentary…I get enough of that in daily life (magazines, movies, music, TV, etc). I come here to get the truth and to reassure myself that the entire country HASN’T gone crazy. Michelle and many of the commenters here have restored my faith that people still care about what is important.

You, MikeB, DK, LG and the other Liberal hacks are annoying, but the good here far outweighs the bad. Don’t be surprised if you come here to insult MM or the collective beliefs that we share and get quickly rebutted. Funny thing, though, MM still allows you to stay and spew your insults. You don’t see such tolerance on sites where your Lib buddies hang out.

One of the reasons I started my own little blog was my shock at the sheer vitriol and hatred I was finding on left-ish sites. You do actually find the same thing on the fringe of the right wing, but a mainstream blog like this one? Contrast Michelle with the pottymouth nonsense you’ll find on Kos or Wonkette. Night and day. To call this a “hate” site is to reveal yourself as reality-impaired.

I’m probably wasting my time, responding to a thread this late. But, here it goes. The assertion that this site is a “hate site” demonstrates a SHOCKING failure to recognize the rationale for the First Amendment Freedom of Speech understood by the Federalists and the Anti-Federalists at the time of the adoption of both the Constitution and Bill of Rights. It also demonstrates a SHOCKING failure to understand the HISTORY of the exercise of such rights. Look at the editorial comments of President Lincoln’s conduct of the Civil War. THIS is precisely the sort of Freedom of Expression that the First Amendment was supposed to protect. Yes, it even protects the morons at DailyKos and DU for their idiotic rants.
But let me add this: if President Bush (Jr.) wants a third term or to impose a dictatorship (which is the current “progressive” conspiracy theory), which is no longer permitted by the Constitution, the opposition (including armed opposition) would not be limited to un-trained leftist morons.
Otherwise, this business of labeling something a “hate site” is merely verbal posturing in the on-going Culture War between the Right and the Left. I’ve picked my side, but I’m a veteran.
Michelle, and all those who maintain this website and HotAir (who apparently have gotten over whining about the lack of I-phones, or whatever it was), keep up the EXCELLENT work!

I sent the following to Arianna Huffington regarding hatred on her site:

Ms. Huffington,

Although I disagree with you politically, I do not hate you. Liberals are my opponents, not my enemies. However, I simply do not feel you have the qualifications to judge General Petraeus. You have every right to do so, but it seems as silly as him telling you how to run your column. Your sources on this issue are thin, undermining your credibility.

Lastly, on an unrelated matter, I would like you in the strongest possible terms to condemn any comparisons of President Bush to Hitler. I am the son of a Holocaust survivor, and consider those comments to be antisemitic in nature.

I am not calling you an antisemite, but please immediately remove such posts whenever they come up.

Respectfully,

Give it up, liberals. You own hate just as you own surrender.
