"Have you read Ann Coulter?"

I've read Ann Coulter, which is popularly held to be the most acidic one, right? I've never heard her use any terms that even come close to "human filth" or "chimp" or "devil". She doesn't even really sling around nutcase and nitwit unless it's -really- deserved. And no, I don't think she has ever suggested that all liberals need to be "held under the water long enough" to kill them.

The Left is way. way over the top. Ann's rough and brash (and after the years of conservatives just bending over and taking it, I love her for it), but the Left is hysterical, lying and absolutely brutal. If the Right is "brutal", it is because they call the Left to real account for their real actions. When the Left is "brutal", it is brutal in the way that a 7 year old kid who likes to torture squirrels is brutal. I suggest that you're engaged in moral equivalence.

And I suggest that you're engaged in the most sophomoric defense ever mounted: "It's okay when I do it, because I'm the Good Guys."

Either that or pathological denial.

You can't get into a street fight and then be offended when the opposition lands one on your jaw!
