Malkin is such a baby
She has been on a bunch of programs since Matthews challenged her insane views. She was even on with the Pig Man. All she did was whine and cry, saying that Chris Matthews is a partisan jerk.

That woman has NO credibility and anyone who believes her TRASH about Kerry is just as INSANE as she is.

2. Please forgive me
but who the hell is she? I don't watch those shows so all I know is what I've read here. Did she write a book or something? Why are all the talking heads having her on their show? I mean, what are her credentials?

Thanks!

5. She 's a
Philippine woman who wrote a crazy book defending the terrible treatment of Japanese Americans after WWII.

Lately, she been saying Kerry shot himself to get his medals and to get out of Vietnam early.

40. I hate the bitch but she is an American
Her parents may be from the Islands but her bio said she was raised in South Jersey. To polite refer to her as a Pinay. Pilipino girl.

6. Her credentials?
Willing to contravene her own personal integrity for money and celebrity. Apparently thinks the real world is like townhall.com.

On a related note, I find it interesting that the RW has so many female mouthpieces whose one attribute is that they are all reasonably attractive (this pic of Malkin notwithstanding). Think that's a conscious decision to sway those males who might be more influenced by words coming from attractive women, rather than using their critical thinking skills?

16. I think it's because the right wing pays better
Look at all the fine people on this board who can write! I'm constantly amazed by the level of skill displayed on these boards, and we're all generating this stuff for free.

The right wing pays people who write well. They hire them to spew press releases from all those Scaife-funded right wing stink tanks, to write Astroturf letters to newspapers and to generate talking points for yappers in the media. The lucky ones get to go on to historical revisionist books. Once they've got the golden handcuffs on these folks, they'll spew whatever they're told to spew, and some of them will come to believe it.

As for Malkin, she strikes me as somebody who got sucked into one of Scaife's college "conservative student organizations." Once she found out they were actively recruiting people for well paid spew jobs, her life was set. She has no reason to examine any of this rubbish from the other side, e.g. from the side of the Americans with Japanese surnames who were herded into concentration camps while their property was stolen from them. They tell her what they want, she does a little sloppy research, and another book is born.

These people are successful at what they do because a few unimaginably rich men are paying them to be successful at what they do. If they ever had to compete head to head with an honest researcher, they would soon be relegated to writing fluff pieces on the Junior League luncheons in the local newspaper.

41. Partly, yes.
Also an attempt to sway female undecideds who might see Malkin and her co-spawn as "smart, tough women" who back the Repubs. Better that than show them the creepy old fascists who actually run the party. That would send anybody running.

11. She's a syndicated columnist and writer.
Correction: She WAS a syndicated columnist and writer.

She's made a "fool" of herself on Real Time, Hardball, and Countdown so far, so I think her career is waning. I hope so.

3. The REAL term for what she's doing
I believe it's called "Soiling Oneself In Public."

My only regret is that it can't be Merrie Spaeth.

7. The biggest laught I got was screwing up "idiot"
She claimed in her whiney blog that Olbermann called her an idiot and then she had to admit the mistake - what a "journalist" - can even get 1st person quotes right!


Update: Keith Olbermann said I had made a "fool of myself," not that I was an "idiot." I stand corrected and apologize for mistakenly characterizing his insult.

since he was misquoted.

8. Matthews will be back Monday. I sincerely hope he doesn't apologize...
to her or to offer any explanations. Matthews has NOTHING to apologize for on Hardball Thursday night. A great show that helped to shed the light on these lies.

18. No Apology coming
MSNBC played a report on Malkin this morning showing how she mad a fool of herself -
1. Wouldn't answer CM's clear question - Do YOU believe Kerry injured himself ON PURPOSE? She kept wanting to talk about what someone said in the book, which as MSNBC pointed out, says no such thing.

2. That no one called her an idiot (I guess she just felt like one). Oberman was great on this, by the way. He said he had started to draft an apology, but couldn't find in the transcript where he used the word "idiot."

Then they ran the promo for Monday's Hardball, which will be about the Swift boat liars. Chris is still strong on this.

12. Let's see . . .
Michelle Malkin calls Chris Matthews, who has far better journalistic credentials than she, a partisan jerk. Judging by the excoriation Mr. Matthews often receives on DU, that really seems beyond the pale.

Meanwhile, Ollie North, who was convicted of obstructing a congressional invesitgation and later pardoned, calls Senator Kerry a liar.

Is the Bush campaign strategy to send forth pots to call kettles black?

19. Oh My! Does any one see the irony here?
Malkin, Bwahh! haa! ha! So now a right-wing apologist and peddler of Interment camps weren't all that bad 'really' rah! rah! is now playing 'the poor little victim'

AND with all the moaning over the years we've listened to them regurgitate all along the right-wing hate track and read printed in their corporate right-wing hate head sponsored media about how we nasty Democrats play the victim or how 'those blacks' play the victim. :eyes:
Yea, Right those Poor little Republicans they are the victims of us mean ole' liberals :cry: boo! freaking! whoo! Losers!

My heart, oh so, bleeds for ya Malkin NOT

I think a lot of Republicans are in for a rude awakening they have jab and poked enough to draw blood now they are going to get it back and they have no one to blame but their selves.
What's that other word they are so fond of throwing around? Responsibility? Yea, that's it and it's what they need to take for their own actions Responsibility!

33. And now, Track 2 of the album "Dumber Soul" (featuring the hit "Michelle")
"That Malkin" (to the tune of Fats Domino's "Im Walkin")

'That Malkin! Nutty screeds she's hawkin', bout the Japanese.
Not copin' with the glare of Ca-ble TV, uh uh...

She's loony as she can be, went screwy on MSNBC,
And not copin' with the glare of Ca-ble TV.

Didn't know what to do when called on her lie.
Tried to up and run away and hide.
Matthews turned up the heat and let her fry,
Poor little shill wishin' she had died.

'That Malkin! Nutty screeds she's hawkin', bout the Japanese.
Not copin' with the glare of Ca-ble TV, uh uh...

That Malkin! For the RNC she's barkin' an' foamin' at the teeth,
And not copin' with the glare of Ca-ble TV!.

She's phony, like Nutrasweet. Make money, spoutin' hate you see,
But not copin' with the glare of Ca-ble TV!

Nearly turned blue, sittin' at Maher's side,
Audience hooted and she went pop-eyed!
Makin' funny faces as the camera spied.
Went on Pharma's show and simply boo-hoo cried

That Malkin! For the RNC she's barkin' an' foamin' at the teeth,
And not copin' with the glare of Ca-ble TV!.

36. Olberman on 'Hardblogger' re: Malkin:
Michelle Malkin, the unfortunate and overmatched author of a self-loathing book that attempts to justify our World War II internment and robbery of Americans of Japanese heritage, became the harbinger of the next mucky smell of low tide. She raised the story— heretofore consigned largely to Robert Novak and everybody to his right— in that delightful, Teflon way of modern politics: ‘I’m not saying that John Kerry shot himself. But in the Swift Boat Veterans’ book, they ask whether or not his wounds were self-inflicted.’

If Ms. Malkin isn’t seen on television, or moving on her own power, in the next few days, it’s understandable. My colleague Mr. Matthews forced her to hang herself out to dry ten or eleven times (never prouder of you, Chris). He may have directed the momentum, but her wounds were ultimately, uh, self-inflicted.
