From bad to worse

DU mention in this one:

From bad to worse
To those who think the left and the right are as bad as each other, two words: Ann Coulter.
Melissa McEwan

There's a truly insidious myth in American politics that goes something like this: Both sides are just as bad.

The "sides" to which this assertion refers are, of course, the left and the right, and it's invoked most often by conservatives, at times when they're obliged to defend yet another incident of one of their well-known pundits, chat show talking heads, radio show hosts, or notable carriers of the conservative torch saying something otherwise indefensible.

Recently, their high priestess of shrieking hyperbole, Ann Coulter, in her ongoing crusade to satiate the ravenous appetites of her ghoulish minions, has necessitated dragging out and dusting off that old myth once again.

While there are, undeniably, examples of leftwing ugliness that can be culled from the massive comments threads at highly-trafficked progressive blogs (Daily Kos, Eschaton, and Democratic Underground being favorite fertile ground for conservative collectors of "moonbat lunacy"), the same can be said of the comments threads at equivalent conservative sites.
