And we all know that the libs are never mean-spirited!

/sarcasm

[expatguy]

Sounds like discrimination to me

[goldstategop]

Fairfax has gone to the dogs. It was the first Virginia County to go for John F*ckin' since Lyndon Johnson won it in 1964.

[BigSkyFreeper]

Of course the Virginian-Pilot editorial board endorsed John Effen Kerry for President.

[FormerLib]

Liberals don't like minorities that don't mind their place.

[Moose4]

Yeah, gotta love the newspaper of one of the biggest Navy towns in the country being so stridently liberal. The Virginian-Pilot isn't worth being used as toilet paper at the Naval Base.

"anti-Liberal" = "mean-spirited"

"Responding to a reader's complaint about the conservative scribe, the paper's public editor, Marvin Lake, announced on Monday that "she's outta here." "

ONE reader's complaint??? Sounds like they were just waiting for an excuse to show her the door. Jerks.

[Mr Ramsbotham]

It's news to me that she's "Asian." That's a form of thinly-disguised racism, so far as I'm concerned.

[odoso]

"She adds absolutely nothing to genuine political discourse."

If she adds nothing to genuine political discourse, then the liberals aren't liberals.

LOL

[SpyGuy]

Editorial writer Don Luzzatto: "I was really put off by her penchant for name-calling and ad hominem attack. I think we can do much better."

You mean like Michael Moore?

[Kryptonite]

[shadowman99]

If they had called her an Ann Coulter clone, or a copy of Ann Coulter, or even an Ann Coulter wannabe - then fine. But they choose to make a special point of her being Asian.

People, it's time to open the Wuppass.

Responding to a reader's complaint about the conservative scribe, the paper's public editor, Marvin Lake, announced on Monday that "she's outta here."

A reader's complaint?? I should check and see if they run Doonesbury and bitch about that then...

[drt1]

Hmmm. . . I understand there's another MM (Micheal Moore) who might be available for guest op-eds.

[AreaMan]

... including exposing Sen. Robert Byrd as a Ku Klux Klan sympathizer years after he formally left the organization, and warning how America's failed immigration system has left the country vulnerable to another terrorist attack...

They used to give Pulitzer Prizes for reporting like that, back when the Pulitzer meant something.

Today, and "exposè" in High Times on which Hawaiian island produces the tastiest herb is more likely to win.

[Jon Alvarez]

wonder if the same standards will apply to their choice of political cartoonists, most of who love to skewer GW.

They carry Molly Ivins or Maureen Dowd? Same thing...

[Always Right]

With a circulation of under 200,000 not too big of a deal.

[SMARTY]

"...mean-spirited."

Please!!! That's what was said about Reagan. When the commentary and assessment by Conservatives gets too close to home, Liberals like to call them 'mean spirited'. Oh brother, time to grow up.

[AmericanInTokyo]

Hey Norfolk paper: Tanga pahayagan!
