Martin Bashir suggests that Sarah Palin should be punished, as slaves were once punished, for minimizing slavery. Right Wing goes ballistic in response.

Courtesy of Progressive Populist:

“It will be like slavery,” Bashir repeated. “Given her well-established reputation as a world class idiot, it’s hardly surprising that she should choose to mention slavery in a way that is abominable to anyone who knows anything about its barbaric history.”

Bashir then discussed the barbaric history of slavery, specifically a first-person account from a man named Thomas Thistlewood, who kept a diary about the horrible treatment and discipline of the slaves he and his family owned. Bashir says, “In 1756, he records that a slave named Darby ‘catched eating kanes had him well flogged and pickled, then made Hector, another slave, s-h-i-t in his mouth.’”

Bashir concluded by saying, “When Mrs. Palin invokes slavery, she doesn’t just prove her rank ignorance. She confirms if anyone truly qualified for a dose of discipline from Thomas Thistlewood, she would be the outstanding candidate.”

In other words, Palin deserves to have her mouth s-h-i-t in.

You know usually Bashir is fairly controlled in his take downs of the Right Wing and Republican party, but I guess some people are just too disgusting for him to treat with respect.

However as others have pointed out, considering how much shit pours out of Palin's maw, she would probably not even notice a little extra added in from another source.

Well as you can imagine this has caused the Right Wing bloggers and news sites to, if you will pardon the pun, lose their shit.
