Dum Pendebat Filius

Readers, the right-wing blogosphere can be enough to get anybody’s irony-sensors confused. Is the Costco Coulter joking when she complains that the symbol of the New Orleans Police Department is “a religious symbol — that of Islam”?

[T]his symbol is a religious symbol — that of Islam. So why is the ACLU allowing it? Imagine if New Orleans was known as “the Cross City,” and its insignia was a cross. We’d be hearing all kinds of yelling and screaming about the separation of church and state. And you can bet there would be an ACLU lawsuit.

So where is the ACLU? I hear crickets chirping . . . . but not much else.

I am pretty sure this is what it looks like when Debbie Schlussel tries to be funny, but we’ve learned over the past few years that there’s nothing so deliriously wingnutty that some right-wing blogger won’t eventually say it; so what do you think?
