This part: You don't have any idea what Malkin's standards are! If you think you know, tell me what her standards are, and how she violated them. I dare you.
Don't chicken out.

Malkin's standards:I'd rather be a G-rated conservative...
Malkin's standards:Self-censorship is a conservative value. In a brilliant commencement speech at Hillsdale College last year Heritage Foundation president Ed Feulner called on his audience to resist the coarsened rhetoric of our time: "If we are to prevail as a free, self-governing people, we must first govern our tongues and our pens. Restoring civility to public discourse is not an option. It is a necessity.
Gee that was tough.
Those are her direct quotes. It couldn't be more clear what she is saying -- what her standards are. They are good standards.
Contrast that to her displayed mail bag on her website filled with crude vulgar references. I know she didn't write the vulgarities. That's not the point. She perpetuated the vulgarities of others for no good reason. She could have easily displayed, the phrase "explicative deleted" instead of displaying those vulgarities without changing the meaning of those nasty e-mails that were sent to her. She could have done what both you, I and almost everybody here at FreeRepublic does when they wish to convey a vulgarity. We star-out some of the letters.
She didn't do this -- and it was her very complaint about Laura Bush.
Hey, there are a lot more important things in life than worrying about vulgarities. But my original point about hypocracy remains.
Do you know what gratuitous means?
