So I’m cruising the Right-wing nutbag sites, and I come across good ‘ol dependable Michelle Malkin.

Who can forget goofy Michelle and that insipid YouTube video she did, dressed up in her cheerleader outfit. I’m sure that was a bonanza for pedophiles.

But I digress.

Malkin’s got all kinds of freedom of speech violation crap on her site, even something defending Michael Savage in his quest to have his name removed from Great Britain’s banned list.

So anyway, I was going to post a comment on her site, when I see that all commenters have to abide by her terms of service. What could these be, I ask as I click the link.

Well, get a load of this, from the Queen of Free Speech:

I may allow as much or as little opportunity for registration as I choose, in my absolute discretion, and I may close particular comment threads or discontinue my general policy of allowing comments at any time. By registering to post comments, you warrant that you are at least 18 years old and that you are solely responsible for your account’s activity.

I reserve the right to delete your comments or revoke your registration for any reason whatsoever. Rarely will I do so simply because I disagree with you. I will, however, usually do so if you post something that is, in my opinion, (a) off-topic; (b) libelous, defamatory, abusive, harassing, threatening, profane, pornographic, offensive, false, misleading, or which otherwise violates or encourages others to violate these terms of use or any law, including intellectual property laws; or (c) “spam,” i.e., an attempt to advertise, solicit, or otherwise promote goods and services. I may exercise these rights myself and I may delegate them to employees and/or contractors.

… In short, you’re my guest here. I welcome your participation, but if you abuse my hospitality, don’t be surprised if you are shown the door.

That’s what I love about these Right-wing free speech champions. They want everyone else to allow unbridled comment, but they don’t do it themselves. For example, you’ll hear Savage whining on and on on his radio program about how Britain has denied him his free speech rights (which is ridiculous because now he’s heard in the UK. when he wasn’t before he was banned. So they’ve actually increased his freedom of speech) but he’ll cut off a caller he doesn’t like.

Hypocrites, all of them.

Keep the faith.
