This Yahoo News clip comes from some girl...
NEW YORK Sen. Zell Miller, who famously challenged MSNBC host Chris Matthews to a duel during the Republican convention this year, now may have to face New York Times columnist Maureen Dowd. Appearing on Don Imus', Miller ripped the woman he called "Maureen Loud," calling her a "highbrow hussy from New York." He added that the "red-headed woman at the New York Times" should not mock anyone's religion: "You can see horns just sprouting up through that Technicolor hair." Asked by the New York Post for a response, Dowd said: "I'm not a highbrow hussy from New York. I'm a highbrow hussy from Washington."

Okay so it’s cute comeback from our Maureen, but it goes deeper. This is the fourth or fifth time in the last 48 hours I have heard a Red talking head repeating some variation on the theme that us Blues are losers because we "mock" or "make fun" of good folks "religious beliefs." And I haven’t been watching a whole bunch of TV either. The election’s gone but the kneejerk-phrase generator is still set on You-Can’t-Hide and pulling power from the shields.

And I write more on that in this weeks LA CityBeat...

Plus the good folks with the laughable religious beliefs are now beavering away trying to ban the movie "Kinsey." – Alfred Kinsey is responsible in part for my generation being forced to deal face-to-face with the devastating consequences of sexually transmitted diseases, pornography and abortion," said Brandi Swindell, head of a college-oriented group called Generation Life that plans to picket theaters showing the film. -- The Culture War opens more like water torture than Waterloo.

(But let’s not forget how the Red demographic ran out and bought generators and shotguns to ward off Y2K)

CRYPTIQUEShit’s outta control already, momma!

GWEN DAVITT RIP
