John Hawkins has an excellent point:
There are certain lines in life that shouldn't be crossed and one of them is comparing a man's wife to Dustin Hoffman in drag.Of course, Drudge isn't the only offender in this regard.

He's right of course. I get so sick of lame insults being used as a proxy for actual argument.
