Michelle Malkin

Bob has all the details. Sick twisted bitch should be her new online name.

The birth of Yoda? You decide, with the help of Bob.

So one of the big stories today is that Mitt Romney still uses illegal immigrants to do his lawn work. I guess the wingnuts will disown Romney now - won't they?

Let's ask Erick at Redstate:

The Boston Globe has decided to stake out the Romney house and harass contract workers on their citizenship status. I find it highly ironic that a media company opposed to restrictive immigration policies and racial profiling would stand outside someone's house and harass hispanic looking workers to find out if they are illegal aliens.

I actually give Governor Romney credit for giving the company involved a second chance. To be sure, I would not have publicly released the address and name of the company today as it just sets Romney up for a vendetta by the guy.

WHOA - what's that? It isn't bad that illegal immigrants did the work, but it is bad that it was reported? Now certainly Malkin is opposed to Romney doing this - isn't she?:

And while it’s bad for police to ask suspected criminal aliens their citizenship status, it’s fine and dandy for journalists to ask lawn workers whether they’re here illegally…if it will embarrass a Republican presidential candidate.

For the record, Romney should have cut ties with the company a long time ago. Dumb decision. He should be embarrassed.

Oh so she is also upset that this got reported, but at least she is a little mad at Romney. Of course that doesn't stop her from thinking this will turn into a partisan issue:

But not as embarrassed as open-borders zealots and Dems should be. Watch as they exploit this report and then turn around and attack everyone other than liberal MSM journalists who advocates the repeal of sanctuary gag orders or uses the same basic investigative techniques to report a story. (Here’s a thought experiment: Imagine a Fox reporter hanging out at the Virginia DMV where the 9/11 hijackers bought fraudulent ID for two months, asking the day laborers if they’re here legally, snapping photos and shooting video of the parking lot transactions, and then reporting the results to DHS for comment on air. The spit would fly, I guarantee it.)

Now my head is really spinning. Did Malkin miss the YouTube debate she made such a big fuss about? I thought Rudy was the one going on about this.

There is an underlying point in all this - hypocrisy. Now if it was John Edwards caught using illegal immigrants, the right would be attacking him nonstop (including Mitt Romney). So you and me can't have illegal immigrants do our lawn work, but Romney can? As usually the talking points and outrage by Republicans smells of hypocrisy (see Larry Craig, Mark Foley, etc., etc. etc.) and their little puppets follow right behind them.

Malkin's final reasoning there also has me baffled. Has anyone ever been sent to prison for refusing to answer questions from a reporter? Does her dense little mind distinguish the difference between police and reporters? She has developed a pure straw man out of this just to protect Romney.

So to these wingnuts Romney's reputation trumps border security. How's that for a credibility issue?

UPDATE:

Add Hugh Hewitt to the list of Romney apologists (as well as Captain Ed)!

From the land of coo-coo nut Michelle Malkin comes the latest left wing conspiracy - STEALIN HER MUSIC!!! Yeah - because we don't want those wingnuts to have any entertainment:

The Left can’t stand conservative dominance of any segment of media, society, politics, or pop culture. Apparently, it really bugs them that the majority of country music stars and fans are right-leaning. Now, according to the Telegraph, BDS-infected entertainers are plotting to take back country:

Now that is funny!

What Malkin fails to remember is a little thing called being "DIxie Chicked". It's not that the left is upset that country music stars and fans are right-leaning (and actually it is probably more balanced than one would think), it's the fact that the country music industry has tried to silence the voices of people who oppose Bush's failed policy - even if it is a top group. Does rock and roll shun Ted Nugent? No - and if they did you can bet your sweet ass there would be a war fired up on the right.

Remember Toby Keith?

Malkin brings up this once darling of the war bloggers as a candidate for the left to use in their tour. Yeah - he was a god to them when he wrote that song supporting Afghanistan, but as soon as he said he was against Iraq then he became another terrorist. See - to the wingnuts everything must follow some sort of litmus test. How dare someone be different or express a different view than them! Robots - we should all be robots!

This is kind of like when Malkin just couldn't get those "aborigines hopping around half-naked and waving leafy green things to ward off the Eeevils of Modernity" during the Live Earth concert. Don't mind the fact that they were in Australia - their native land. That doesn't matter once bit. Instead Malkin just don't get it because they aren't like her.

See what seperates us actual humans from the war mongering right is that we can think outside the box. I have seen Ted Nugent in concert twice. Will I again? Sure. Do I agree with his political views? Hell No! But the thing is that I can disagree with their views but still listen to their music. I don't judge a person just because they support this policy or don't support that one. I don't agree with the views of Jon Voight, yet I think he is one hell of an actor and will watch any movie he is in.

Even Fred Thompson. I don't like him politically and would never vote for the man, but I still like some of the roles he has played, especially in The Hunt for Red October. Wow and that was a movie starring Alec Baldwin. Damn a rightie and leftie did something together and they are still alive! Impossible in the hate filled mind of Malkin.

There is more to a person than just their views on a war. Malkin and her ilk don't understand that though. Instead they choose to judge everyone and everything by their views of this war. Of course some of us on this side do to. My point is that I won't judge a person solely on the fact that they support the Iraq war. I will judge them if they can sit there and keep pushing for this war, even during the highly failed strategy part, while pushing for more wars and all the while coming up with more excuses of why they can't serve. They are armchair generals in the very sense of the phrase. They want the thrills of war through the eyes of those brave enough to serve. These are the people I strongly disagree with.

Subject: Re: Michelle no longer on the Factor?
I made the decision to quit appearing on the O’Reilly show in response to the poor handling of the Geraldo Rivera matter (the staged “apology” on The Factor was a complete farce). I won’t go into details, but please know that your support means a lot to me. You can catch me on other Fox News shows and read my daily blog posts and weekly columns at MichelleMalkin.com.

Best,
Michelle

In the Malkin world it is ok for herself or others to viciously attack anyone. They can stalk, threaten, do whatever the hell they please. Let the tables turn though and she gets upset. Anytime someone calls her out on her bullshit she acts like it is some sort of Jihad. Need a definition for Delusions of Grandeur? You need to look no further than Michelle Malkin.

A lot of chatter is going on about Graeme Frost, the 12 year old boy who gave the Democratic radio response a couple of weeks ago. He was speaking in support of SCHIP. Of course the viciousness of the right has come out on this, and they are making the victim into some monster. Think Progress has a good run down of what has been happening.

One thing worth pointing out in all this. Free Republic choose to publish the address of the Frost's today (I won't link it because I do value privacy). Now we find out that Malkin made a road trip there.

Update 2:50pm Eastern: I just returned from a visit to Frost’s commercial property near Patterson Park in Baltimore. It’s a modest place. Talked to one of the tenants, Mike Reilly, who is a talented welder. He said he had known the Frosts for 10 years. Business is good, he told me, though he characterized Frost as “struggling.” Reilly was an outspoken advocate for socialized health care without any means-testing whatsoever and an insistent critic of the Iraq war. Despite all that, he did agree with me that going without health insurance is often a matter of choice and a matter of priorities. Or maybe we were speaking two different languages.

I also passed by the Frosts’ rowhouse. There was an “01 - 20 -09? bumper sticker plastered on the door and a newer model GMC Suburban parked directly in front of the house. I’ve seen guesstimates of the house’s worth in the $400,000-plus range. Those are high. But Mark Tapscott’s point remains: “[P]eople make choices and it’s clear the Frosts have made choice to invest in property and a business, but not in private health insurance. The Maryland-administered version of the federal SCHIP program, by the way, does not impose an asset test on applicants.” More here.

Now think about this for a minute. This is the same Michelle Malkin that goes on FOX news and cries victim for every nasty email she gets. What the hell is she doing going out stalking this family? Malkin has proven time and again that she is off the rocker (for my medical term), and willing to do anything to push her agenda. Perhaps the Frost family should consider taking out a restraining order. I don't think anyone trusts her.

Malkin today on the Craig incident:

He’s a supremely arrogant, lying crapweasel. Blaming the press. Non-apology apologizing. How do you spell creep? C-r-a-i-g.

Malkin during the Foley scandal:

Very damning evidence. If it is all true, and it seems very likely that it is, Rep. Foley has shamed himself, his office, his district, and his party.

While she didn't come out and defend Foley, she sure seems to be much more upset with Craig than Foley. Does soliciting sex from an adult of the same gender group deserve more outrage than trying to solicit sex from a child of the same gender group? I think any reasonable person would answer that with a big "Hell No". So what is the difference now? I guess that would be the fact that we are over a year away from the next election, as opposed to being a month away from the election, as was the case when Foley broke.

The flight crew has provided barf bags for the following!

TBogg puts it best:

We would normally say that Michelle Malkin has jumped the shark, but, well, quite frankly it doesn't look like she could jump a curb.

I am still pondering how a person can call someone a loser while making that video. Pot - meet kettle!

First for the definition - Phishing as provided by the SEC:

“Phishing” involves the use of fraudulent emails and copy-cat websites to trick you into revealing valuable personal information — such as account numbers for banking, securities, mortgage, or credit accounts, your social security numbers, and the login IDs and passwords you use when accessing online financial services providers. The fraudsters who collect this information then use it to steal your money or your identity or both. 

Now the claim:

Now the details:

"Democratic White House hopeful John Edwards' team has been collecting e-mail addresses from supporters who've sent his cancer-stricken wife, Elizabeth, notes - and using them for fund-raising requests, aides acknowledged yesterday.

The link on Edwards' campaign Web site invites people to "send a note to Elizabeth and John" and features a sad letter from the former senator penned just after the couple found out her breast cancer had spread and is now incurable.

But people who've been sending such well wishes have been hit with e-mail solicitations from Team Edwards, asking for donations just as all candidates are looking to post big online fund-raising numbers.

In the letter, Edwards says the pair is staying optimistic and fighting hard for Elizabeth. Below the letter is a space for writing the couple a message - which can't be sent without all sections completed, including one asking for the sender's e-mail address.

That, in turn, is added to the campaign's online database for boosting Internet donations.

In response, message-senders get a "thank you" for their kind words, but no other indication that their e-mail addresses are being stored.

So how is this "phishing"? This is a common practice by all campaigns, and all campaigns include a link to no longer receive emails at the bottom of their messages. This is in no way phishing and in no way illegal. What Malkin's article does consist of is slander against Edwards. She is saying he is doing something illegal without any conviction, let alone charges or investigations. Again Malkin proves her lack of intelligence.

I posted the other day about the letter that was sent to CPAC from some right wing blogs regarding Ann Coulter. These bloggers took a stand against Coulter's hate speech. Of course the right wing darling, Michelle Malkin, was missing from that list. She did a quick little show of outrage over the incident once it gained some publicity, but I never bought it at all, so I was not surprised that her name was absent from the list.

Now she is using the story of Matt Sanchez, right wing darling and gay porn star, to defend Ann Coulter. Think Progress has the run down of Malkin's latest show of idiocy. Malkin posted this on her blog to try and "show the hatred of liberals":

I said the other day I thought CPAC organizers would be justified in being embarrassed if the rumors about Sanchez’s porn star past 15 years ago turned out to be true. Well, the rumors are true. But it is neither CPAC nor Cpl. Sanchez who should feel embarrassed.

It’s the nasty, gloating liberals who claim to stand for tolerance, privacy, human rights, and compassion. I predicted the other day that left-wing bigotry would rear its ugly head. I was right. The e-mail I’ve received is more disgusting than anything Ann Coulter stupidly said at CPAC.

It is amazing how Malkin always get's some mysterious email proving her point. Does she really think we are that blinded by her? Are her readers really so gullible as to fall for that?

I don't buy this "email" story for one minute. This is the same person who decided to get rid of comments on her blog because of "threats" and "nastiness". Funny that no one ever saw these comments. Even more interesting is how she attacked the HuffPo for turning off comments on a post where some bad things were said about the attempt on Dick Cheney's life.

A press conference today with the Army's top brass said that their is no lack of funds causing the problems at Walter Reed, but rather it was a "failure of leadership". This is something I had pointed out here , however the right-wing darling blogger, Michelle Malkin, decided to not talk about the actual "failure of leadership" and rather spin it into some partisan created problem, once again proving she has no credibility to her outrageous allegations.

For someone like Malkin, who constantly tries to flaunt her false support of the troops, to take a situation as serious as this and make it grounds for partisan bickering is appalling. She tried to say it was the left using it as a partisan issue, but I haven't seen where that occurred. So we called Bush on it. Isn't he the Commander in Chief? Even the White House is admitting failure in the military on this now, so is she calling the generals and White House liars? Instead of creating a faux partisan fight over this, why don't she work to get the problems addressed? I guess it goes down as further proof of her actual lack of support for our troops.

Malkin has posted on the conditions at Walter Reed and here is how much she cares:

Good. The mess at the VA and in the military health care sysm [sic] is systemic and complicated. Political grandstanding on both sides of the political aisle has impeded reforms for years. The push to modernize and consolidate facilities, including Walter Reed, has been met with fierce resistance--exacerbated by bureaucratic edifice complex. That these failures to prioritize continue in war time unabated is damnable. Any light shone on the soldiers' toll, whatever the motivations and prejudices of the WaPo reporters might be, is welcome, IMO.

Remember a couple of years ago when Rumsfeld was asked by a active soldier in Iraq how come they didn't have armor? How about all the times we have heard parents of troops saying they have to send money to our troops to buy armor and the Pentagon not wanting to reimburse them, or even worse - banning that armor? How about a whole list of soldiers and their families talking about having no armor? How about the biggest travesty - the Pentagon charging soldiers who have been injured and lost their armor during that injury for said armor?

 With the debate in the House last week, Democrats brought this up and talked about reports that we still don't have armor for the troops being added in the "surge".

Of course worrying about thing like Armor for our troops is nothing but politics to someone like Michelle Malkin. She's on the warpath to show that everyone is lying (including troops who have spoke out on this). Her proof? A memo from the Pentagon stating that there is armor. Guess what Malkin - OJ says he didn't do it also. Hey - and Saddam said he didn't have weapons of mass destruction. OH - that one was true and yet we are still there!

She also has a handful of photos sent to her from a soldier in Iraq showing three Humvees with armor. I missed the part where the Democrats said there was "no armor" in Iraq. I only heard them saying it was lacking. That is the same thing I have heard soldiers say (including ones I have talked to personally).

Malkin don't give a shit about the lives of our soldiers. They can fight and they can die - just as long as they continue her aphrodisiac called war. She is defiantly the most vial of the war bloggers. I wonder how she would felt if this were World War 2 and we were here blogging about how we need to kill those Japanese?

So just remember- Malkin proves yet again how much she hates the troops. They can keep dying as long as there are some left to kill the brown people in Iraq. Why won't she get off her ass and go sign-up to help man the surge? Oh - because she is to much of a coward to fight for what she believes in.
