Dean Esmay is at it again, ranting and raving in yet another [1] Ralph-Peters-esque (credit Michelle Malkin with the phrase) [2] substanceless hit-and-run attack, this time on Michelle herself -- plus a few swipes at Jihad Watch, Little Green Footballs and the Jawa Report in his comments fields.

I wouldn't have noted it at all except that his initial sally was linked at Instapundit, which demonstrates that despite all of Esmay's frothing hysteria and foaming-at-the-mouth slanders and distortions, some people evidently still take him seriously. How anyone could possibly do so after his foul-mouthed raging in the comments that Michelle Malkin links to is a mystery to me.

[3] Bryan Preston and [4] Michelle Malkin respond cogently.
