Yesterday, Michael Ian Black reached back a century for proof that government regulations are good for jobs. We rightly busted his chops for it, which he didn’t seem to like:

If you're not familiar with @twitchyteam and want to know the tenor of conservative discourse, I advise a perusal.

@reverendmalibu @TwitchyTeam My take is, they like to have a good time. The put the "fun" in "fundit."

@andylassner @TwitchyTeam They're just telling truth to power and libturds.

@GOPcomedy According to Twitchy, I'm just about ready to accept those engagements.

Fortunately for Black, he didn’t have to fight this battle alone. Meggie Mac stuck up for her BFF by trying to make us look like snipey little busybodies:
@michaelianblack you got twitchy'd!!!! Are you the "noted expert"? Did they wax poetic about how much you hate America and freedom??
— Meghan McCain (@MeghanMcCain) December 6, 2013
Um, no. We just used Black’s own words to demonstrate that he’s a doofus. As is the case with Ms. McCain, the tweets speak for themselves.
@MeghanMcCain I love getting twitchy'd. You can read the comments about how they feel about me. "Fascist" was one of the words bandied about
— Michael Ian Black (@michaelianblack) December 6, 2013
Boohoo. Worth noting: “Fascist” didn’t appear anywhere in our post; a commenter used it.
@MeghanMcCain Yeah, it's good for me to be put in my place once in a while. Keeps this big head from getting any bigger.
— Michael Ian Black (@michaelianblack) December 6, 2013
@michaelianblack and the people at twitchy are the people you in your place, because you are clearly actively hurting freedom and america…
— Meghan McCain (@MeghanMcCain) December 6, 2013
We “are the people you in your place.” Sounds about right.
Readers, we’ll leave you with this:
I'm such a fuckin' lady. ?
