Michigan Senator Carl Levin gets pied.

You can't make this us.

Carl Levin, one of the most liberal, far-left members of the Senate, was attacked by an even more liberal, farther-left moonbat this morning at a public meeting in Big Rapids, Michigan.

The Democrat from Detroit was speaking to members of the Mecosta County Democratic Party when a young man -- who described himself as a student -- began chastising Levin for his work on the Senate Armed Services Committee, which helps direct military and war policy.

After a few minutes of speaking at Pepper's Café and Deli, a woman who accompanied the student to the event walked up to Levin and hit him in the face with a pie, a source with Levin's office confirmed.

Big Rapids Police arrested the woman on assault and battery charges.

The Big Rapids Pioneer newspaper reported the woman's name as Ahlam Mohsen, a 23-year-old senior at Michigan State University; and her friend who instigated the incident with Levin as Max Kantar, 23. MSU lists Mohsen as a student, while Kantar attends Ferris State University.

Had these two fools done their homework they'd have figured out that the only reason that Levin has sat on the Senate Armed Services Committee all these years is to obstruct military planning and readiness, to kill vital weapons systems and force the closure of bases that we still need, and to be able to pry into and meddle with classified operations. He's never been a friend of the military or a supporter of our troops--he's always fought to make their jobs harder.

So along come these two cretins. Ignorant of the fact that Levin is solidly on their side, they hit him with a pie then run away and wind up getting stopped and arrested down the road. And now Ahlam (and out of curiosity, what sort of a name is "Ahlam"?) is in jail, properly charged with Assault. I'm no fan of Senator Levin (and haven't been since he had me tossed out of one of his town halls back in the 1980's for accidentally referring to him as "Senator Lenin" via an unintended Freudian slip) but assaults on public speakers are unacceptable conduct no matter who the target it. Here's hoping that Michigan State has some stones and expels her, and ditto for Ferris State and the other loon.

UPDATE: Turns out these two have been arrested for harassing Levin before, apparently on behalf of Hamas. Can you say "jihadist stalkers"? Lagniappe says that Levin might want to reconsider his lifelong opposition to gun ownership and learn to use a pistol.

A stalker whines...

By now, most of you have probably heard of Joe McGinniss. For those of you who have not, he's a left-wing "author" of crappy unauthorized biographies from Massachusetts. He's also known for his obsession with Sarah Palin. He's written yellow hit-screeds about her and harassed her at a charity dinner and is currently writing another book about her personal life. And typical of many of the left-wing moonbats out there, he apparently has absolutely no boundaries or professional integrity. I say this because he's taken his stalking to a new level--renting the house next door to the Palin family so that he can spy on them every moment of every day.

Obviously, Governor Palin was not pleased. "Knowing of his many other scathing pieces of 'journalism'... we're sure to have a doozey to look forward to with this treasure he's penning,” Palin wrote on Monday. "Wonder what kind of material he'll gather while overlooking Piper's bedroom, my little garden, and the family's swimming hole?"

And who can blame her? This guy takes "creepy" to a whole new level, and even his son says that he's romantically obsessed with her.

Now the public backlash against him and his sleazy publisher, Random House, is intensifying. Ironically, he's getting the negative attention that he's been trying to build and focus on the Palins, and shockingly, he's unhappy about it. So he's taken to crying to the Washington Post to deny claims that he's a stalker.

After radio host Mark Levin gave out the author's e-mail address, McGinniss got 5000 messages in four hours, eventually shutting down the account. Wasilla police and state troopers are keeping a watchful eye on the place, although McGinniss said no one had come to the house to threaten him on Friday. He simply didn't anticipate the scale of Palin's response.

McGinniss said he was offended by the way Palin described his presence next door. He was deeply offended by the implication, not thinly veiled in Palin's note and subsequent interview with Glenn Beck, that he would be peering in on the children.

"These little kids, I couldn't care less about them," said McGinniss. "I have my own kids and grandkids to care about. I'm just very offended by this."

Yeah, good luck with that one, stalker-boy.

McGinniss should consider himself lucky that he's only stalking a family that has the grace and the restraint of the Palins. Coming from Massachusetts, he undoubtedly relishes his role as a journalistic bully, secure in the knowledge that his fellow liberals are cowed by the fact that he has a lawyer or two on speed-dial ready to sue anyone who gives him what he's got coming. But that really only works in places like Massachusetts or California. In much of the rest of America--particularly the parts where real red-blooded Americans live and constitute the majority--people like McGinniss frequently become known by another term: Missing persons.

Creeps like Joe McGinniss risk winding up with their pictures on milk cartons when they stalk women and kids around real Americans; that's just Justice and Darwinism in action. And any time Todd Palin wants to borrow a shovel, I've got one that he can use.
