You just KNOW that those two would dig up all kinds of clips of Laura Ingraham calling people much worse than "slut".


It would be epic.

3. I will do it for us all, briefly here
Laura Ingraham may be the queen of white media hate. While at Dartmouth College, she worked for the Dartmouth Review, edited by Dinesh D'Souza, who presided over a regular column written in Ebonics, which used to split his readers' sides. In January 1991, Richard Glovsky of the Anti-Defamation League cited the newspaper for a "malicious pattern of antisemitic acts." While at Dartmouth she secretly taped meetings of the campus Gay Students Association, and sent copies to participants' parents. (No wonder she loves Kenneth Starr.) In the Dartmouth Review she denounced the GSA as "cheerleaders for latent campus sodomites."

http://www.salon.com/news/1999/01/23newsa.html

She asserts that "true Americans" "believe in God, own guns, and want limited government"... "Generally speaking these admirable folks tend to be white, southern, Christian, and Republican" in her book Shut Up and Sing, pages 32 and 63, hat tip to DUer Karmadillo in 08 for the page references.

Some more:

On "liberal elites" “Terrorists, and their facilitators and friends, aren’t jealous at all. Like our own self-hating elites, they genuinely detest democracy and the principles enshrined in the constitution.” (Shut Up and Sing, p. 73)

“Elites are … fundamentally anti-American.” (Shut Up and Sing, p. 74)

They "live in palaces invisible from the road outside, and fly in private jets, while their managers and assistants tell them only what they want to hear." (Shut Up and Sing, p. 17)

Fuck Laura Ingraham.
