El Feo: How is this any different than Christian fundamentalists blaming them evil permissive queers and rock-n-roll music for September 11? At least liberals don't threaten their oponents with hellfire. Ann Coulter is at least as bad as many of the "liberal" pundits you mention.
And, I would point out that, to this liberal at least, Michael Parenti and Noam Chomski are hardly "liberals." They immediately blame the United States for everything, babble endlessly about "new paradigms" and "socialism." Chomsky et al are hardly liberals. Parenti spent hours babbling about how wonderful the Serbian Socialist Party of Slobodan was, for God's sake
Zero credibility in my book, and I am definitely a lefty.
Michael Moore is nothing but a leftist Rush Limbaugh, with about as much deep thought and credibility. Good for amusement value, but that's about it.
I really doubt, also, that you will find many liberal pundits as downright nasty as many of the shock radio Uberstormtroopers of the Right. For example, a local video crew was filming a police operation in San Francisco (with the explicit cooperation of the Police themselves, by the way). Our local foamer (a really nasty cro-magnon conservative named "Michael Savage" came by and went into a roid rage. He ran up to the film crew and started screaming at them about how wicked they were, how they were oppressing the cops, etcetera ad nauseum.
I think we need to throw Ann Coulter, Savage, et al into a domed ring with PETA, the Animal Liberation Front, the professional Homeless Industry, and the various anarchist/trotskyite/
Workers' Party silly groups. They can fight to the death and then dine on the over-fed carcasses of Limbaugh and Michael Moore. THAT I would pay to see
