The Continuing War on Thanksgiving

michelle-malkin-ff1

As if The Terrorists haven't already been winning by employing their agents, the American Indian, to poo-poo on our Thanksgiving parade of turkey, football, and/or explaining your deviant behaviors to your meddlesome aunts and uncles whom you only see once a year. This time, worst of all, our very own government is getting in on the act. Are you flying this holiday and wondering if you can bring aboard your grandmother's delicious jelly or your uncle's savory gravy? The answer is a resounding No! according to the Keystone Cops. Pack your mother's tangy salsa in checked baggage or have it shipped! Here's the list of un-American gels and liquids:

  • Gravy
  • Salad dressing
  • Oils and vinegars
  • Cranberry sauce
  • Salsa
  • Sauces
  • Creamy dips
  • Wine, liquor and beer
  • Other beverages
  • Jams
  • Jellies
  • Soups
  • Cakes
  • Pies

This is probably all for the better. I mean, nobody wants to risk exposure to your father's creamy dip. But still, beer and wine, Mandrake, children's beer and wine!. Michelle Malkin, what are you going to do about this?

"As if The Terrorists haven't already been winning by employing their agents, the American Indian".

Comes across as latent racism, pretending to be sarcasm. I really hope that is not where you are coming from.

Indeed,not! I was banking on the sheer absurdity of the statement, indeed the whole post, to dispel any possibility of such allegations.

For the record further, then, there was no latent sexism in either your mother's tangy salsa or your father's creamy dip. Nor was there any latent ageism in your grandmother's delicious jelly. Nor was any sexual objectification of precious bodily fluids, or their producers, implied through any double-entendres which were not even alleged in the first place.

I do admit, though, that there was a pronounced anti-avuncular bias with the savory gravy comment. For reasons completely unknown to myself --but ones by which I am complicit, as are we all-- the defamation of uncles is allowed to continue with relative impunity.

Also, the potshot at Michelle Malkin was completely manifest.
