Bloggers' hypocrisy about biadap-ness

I recall that (in a Malaysiakini report) Lim Kit Siang was bashed by many bloggers, including supposedly (federal) opposition bloggers, for his so-called biadap attitude when he voiced his initial refusal to let DAP ADUNs attend the swearing in of a PAS ADUN as the Perak MB.

At least Lim has the graciousness and dignified humility to subsequently apologise to the Perak Regent for his momentary faux pas.

[BTW, Lim Kit Siang and DAP are being deliberately targeted by so-called ‘friendlies’ who have a strategic objective to destroy the DAP – will blog on that soon]

Yet when the 22 UMNO ADUNs in Terengganu boycotted the swearing in of Ahmad Said as the MB selected by the Terengganu palace, there was no such accusation of biadap. Maybe only DAP MPs and ADUNs are can be biadap?

Not that I don’t support the rejection of the palace interference with democratic processes, but surely there should be consistency in apportioning that most terrible of Malay tongue-lashing, biadap to politicians. Why only demonise the DAP leader? And my query is not just directed at pro-UMNO bloggers.

Yes, what happened to those so-called (federal) opposition bloggers who were so enthusiastic about tearing into Lim Kit Siang - cat got your browser tongue? Or, did a frog jump into your throat?
