Politics are allowed in politics, but there are limits, and there is a pale, and Metafilter has managed to deceive those limits, and sensationalize beyond that pale. What makes this quote funny? It's automatically generated by this site, which can add your name or website to any accusation of liberal bias you'd ever want. This will save so many people so much time. [MetaFilter]

I had to give the site a try -- it just sounded like too much fun.  Here is the article it generated about me:

Kriselda Jarnsaxa: hollow, absurd and execrable

by R. Robot

Instead of constructing arguments based on logic, the naysayers assume that whatever they want to be true must be. "If Saddam could attack us at any minute, what was Bush doing on vacation for a month?" says Kriselda Jarnsaxa.

One day, the Iraqi tyrant's rule will be at an end. On that day, we want to be able to look these people in the eye and tell them that we cared about them, too. Isn't it clear by now that the world is menaced by a execrable villain who has already bullied his neighbors?

When will Kriselda Jarnsaxa come clean about the way she criticizes George Bush?

"What kind of a skeeza is Condoleeza?" says Kriselda Jarnsaxa. I suppose she'd rather invite Bin Laden over and make love. One day, Mullah Omar's rule will be at an end. On that day, we want to be able to look these people in the eye and tell them that we cared about them, too.

Last week Kriselda Jarnsaxa went so far as to leave the mainstream completely and enter a kind of hysterical alternate universe of hollow viciousness.

What's scary is that some of this sounds not too far off from the kind of insults a particular list-mate slings on a regular basis, but that's a different matter.  The thing that caught my eye the most was the quote in the first paragraph that was "attributed" to me:  "If Saddam could attack us at any minute, what was Bush doing on vacation for a month?"

It's actually almost not a bad question.  Sure, a bit of a hyperbole, but at the same time, if Iraq truly is such a threat, then why did Bush and the Congress have time to go away for a month?  Shouldn't they have been spending that time looking, perhaps, for evidence, or trying to work out a diplomatic solution?  Or did they need to have that month-long break to help ensure that the war-mongering was best timed to help the Republicans out in the November elections?

Just as a side note, the "Liberal Bias Detector" is available to be installed on other websites, so, in the interest of a good laugh now and again, I've added it to different strings.  Be sure to take a moment to find out just how much of a liberal YOU are. :)
