"From the Mail Bag: Wishing Someone Guns Down Joe Wilson"
So Erick Erickson titled his recent RedState.com blog article about some of the emails he's received since saying Joe Wilson, Republican congressman from South Carolina, was a hero for calling the prez out as the liar he is during his recent speech on healthscare reform before the joint session of Congress.
Erick says some of the hate emails he's received are amazing and even posted one of them -- he says one of the "classiest" ones -- in his blog article. He also credits MSNBC's Rachel Maddow having mentioned his calling Wilson a hero with dramatically increasing the volume, if not the clarity, of hate emails he's received.
My comments back to Erick:
OMG, Erick, your post was mentioned by MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow?! RACHEL MADDOW?! OH…..MY….GOD. Really?!
W-e-l-l-l-l, you must really be impressed with yourself now, huh? I mean, you've really MADE it now, for sure.
If this email you cited here is one of the “classiest” you've gotten, I don't think we “thinking” conservatives have to worry too much about losing any logical arguments with the “feeling” libs any time soon. All we have to do is say something — usually sprinkled with some of our "pesky" facts and figures — that causes the veins in their necks and foreheads to stand out and makes them want to either pull their hair out or run around like it's on fire. Either of those works for me.
