I'll be back on Monday, but til then, there's a fascinating pissing match going on over at World O'Crap.

Right-wing neurotic with column on cute little conservative vanity site flips her squiff because brown people use the bathroom on her plane and reports them to everyone she can think of in law enforcement and also checks with Ann Coulter's column on bad brown people on planes, then Michelle Malkin triumphantly discovers that the musicians did exist and they really were brown here

Then, via Sadly No, Ms Malkin writes a post about the incident and World O'Crap's response to it and how if there weren't something wrong the airlines and law enforcement would release more information about the brown people (I guess being redflagged by two different law enforcement agencies as a homeland security risk when you're musicians who travel isn't enough of a price to pay for using the bathroom) and commenters point out that the folks commenting at Salon don't take into account that women are basically hysterical creatures and it's sexist to ask them not to be

and then

Michelle's readers descend on World O'Crap and tell SZ she's delusional for thinking that brown people shouldn't be treated like criminals (only brown people who look as if they're from arabland, though - apparently there are no muslims in the Philippines where Michelle's family is from and if there were, they would never carry out terrorist acts) and one of them gives this magnificent list of things liberals believe:

The Bush fortune came from Saudi money. Reagan created AIDS. You can eat as much as you want and not get fat, on Atkins. Fox is right-wing. If we help them destroy Israel then they won't bother us.

Fox is right-wing?

[has vapors]

and start a fight about Joe Wilson.

I guess no-one at NRO has given them the talking points on flying brown people yet.

I expect that this will grow even more fascinating as the weekend goes on, but I'll be off being a quivering prisoner of my uterus, so I'll have to miss it.

Damn.

Have a good weekend. Enjoy.
ed, by the way.
