Karol Sheinin is a Beeyatch

You just never know what outrages you'll find on Michelle Malkin's website. I don't visit there often, but today my hat is off to Karol Sheinin who has so boldly stepped across the line of decency that I'm awestruck at the woman's balls.

In Them or us, she points out that without the torture that prompted a Pakistani to squeal on his partners in crime, the terrorist plane attacks out of London might not have been foiled. (Someone better tell Fox News, who reported, "The plot was foiled when an undercover British agent infiltrated the UK-based group, and passed information to authorities.") Sheinin says she has no qualms about this, and torture that saves the lives of innocent people is fine. Unfortunately, in the real world government agents aren't always as well-intentioned or well-informed as Jack Bauer.

In Sheinin's next post, Culture of corruption, she writes about Harry Reid's having to return a contribution of $3000 to a lobbyist who, it turns out, has apparently been found to be a liar. This is the "culture of corruption" she disdains? Ah-hem. Remember Jack Abramoff, anyone? Ralph Reed? Cuddly Grover Norquist? Tom Delay? Shall I continue?

The last of her posts today that I could stomach was I don't know what it means, but I know I don't like it, in which she chides those who are offended by Senator George Allen's use of the pejorative term "macaca" – twice – to describe a campaign aide of Indian descent. Allen's campaign claims "macaca" is a variation of "Mohawk." Steve Mukherjee, a spokesman for the Washington chapter of the Association of Indians in America, was offended but did not know what the term meant. Sheinin writes:

When in doubt about a word's meaning, children, don't look it up in the dictionary or google it, instead become indignant and let your ignorance overpower all rational thought. Only then can you reach the upper echelon of the professional outrage circuit. Good luck.

Okay, so I Googled it. A macaca is a monkey. I think I'm not liking Karol Sheinin very much.
