Yeah, one thing to note as well... calling someone a "political terrorist" means something rather different than calling them an actual "terrorist".
Then again, that's actually expecting some amount of accuracy from them. Conservatives got pissed over Bashir saying "someone should shit in Palin's mouth" when he said no such thing. He said that she should experience what it was like to be a black person in slavery (or was it the Jim Crow era?) before she so casually dismisses their experiences. He mentioned that one such experience was the above. And of course, conservatives, in their grand, reactionary glory, got pissed off.
And yet they have the gall to get indignant when a fake redneck says something bigoted towards gays and blacks and gets suspended. Not fired. Suspended.
