There are plenty of crazy people in the world, and therefore plenty of crazy shit on the Internet. I know this, yet am surprised when I come across another example. A lot of blogs make it a point to ridicule some of them, so I wanted to start a list. As far as I can see, there are three brands of bullshit on the Internet; extreme left liberal, extreme right conservative, and religious. (Religion doesn't get an 'extreme' label, because that would imply there is a non-extreme alternative.)

I know of a few already, though my goal will be to remain objective and consider the possibility that sites I admire to be extreme.

Atlas Shrugs
Daily Kos
World Net Daily

Ok, I can safely add Crooks and Liars to the list of 'out there' liberal blogs. This post, and the comments make it official.

This comment is simply lunacy

especially on a prepubescent one like that. He needs to keep his hands to himself. His first grab of her chest was explainable, but not the second. Couldn't he have grabbed her around the waist? That's a neutral site.

If Obama had done this to his oldest girl child onstage when he won the election, would it have seemed OK? No. Good male parents are scrupulous in where they place their hands on girl children.

Would Mr. Chambliss approve of the girl's boyfriend touching her chest like that?

And yes, BTW, I was sexually abused as a child. Perverts count on people saying, "Did I really see what I apparently saw? Nah!"

I agree that men need to keep their hands off girls, but a man hugging his daughter, as this guy did in the posted video, is perfectly fine. As I stated in my comment to the post, the insinuations say more about the accusers than they do of the accused.
