Leftists Lock on Hate Speech

Now we know why Jane Smiley wins all those awards for unreadable books: she's another loony lefty, sub-species hateful, as she casually affirms in a letter on Salon (emphasis mine):
Gary Kamiya writes, "In a just world, Bush, Wolfowitz, Rumsfeld, Cheney, Rice, Feith and their underlings would be standing before a Senate committee investigating their catastrophic failures, and Packer's book would be Exhibit A." No. In a just world, these people would be taken out and shot. As for Packer, and his unwillingness to believe his own eyes, he may not realize or admit it, but there were plenty of antiwar lefties who knew before the war that the Bush team didn't have a chance. The fact is that the election of 2000 revealed the Bush team for anyone who was willing to look -- they were and are cheaters -- always willing to use illegality and dishonesty to try to get what they want, and what they want is something for themselves, not for the public interest, whether that public is the American public or the Iraqi public. To a man, they knew nothing about war. The "moral innocence" was theirs. They intended to visit suffering upon some people very far away for their own purposes.
To a man, leftists know nothing of honor, civility and courage.

So much for due process.

There is a lot about the left that concerns me greatly, the fact that things like this get said and a received with knowing nods of acceptance is probably the greatest.

I don't know the answer to the question I'm about to ask, but how far is it from the rhetoric to accepting the actions?

I think the answer lies in the signs displayed at the September 24th march on Washington.
