EEK! EEK! WHERE ARE MY SMELLING SALTS?

Those savage blogging toughs have sent The New Republic's Michael Crowley into a swoon:

In a photoshopped image currently featured on the DailyKos home page, Joe Lieberman is now a stand-in for Saddam Hussein. I don't think you have to be a Joe apologist to find this pretty deplorable.

The image is here. It's Lieberman's head on the Saddam statue, as it's being toppled.

For the love of God, Michael, get a hold of yourself. David Levine's caricature of Bush as the Saddam statue has run in The New York Review of Books on and off for three years.
