UPDATED: What Do Wonkette and Nazis Have in Common?
I dunno. They both attract eugenics advocates?
Legal Insurrection: Wonkette goes after Trig Palin…again!
Why does Wonkette find the need to rally against a special needs child like this? An even better question: does she the author watch Triumph of the Will to get her his jollies? Does she think the camp inmates in Schindler’s List are the villains?
Just askin’…

MORE: Ed Driscoll points out Ana Marie Cox doesn’t write for Wonkette anymore. It was Ken Layne who wrote the Wonkette post in question. I’m sorry I directed my snark at her. Plus, the irony of it all.
ANOTHER ONE: Getting results. Of course I know how to write a good headline. I have 15 years experience in media, after all. But even if I didn’t use the term “Nazis”, the parallels between the obsession of some Lefties with eugenics and the Third Reich would remain. In the meantime, the headline has been attention grabbing, as intended! The bottom line is the shoe fits.
MORE: Related: Conservative Lesbian: The fear of losing the Down-Syndrome Boogey-Fetus (via The Other McCain). No accusations of Nazism from these folks, but then again, I didn’t accuse anyone of being a Nazi either. I noted parallels to Nazi eugenics on the Wonkette post. But hey, if the shoe fits…
