I would say out of all the crackpots on the right---this one is second to none.

someone who will give her a smackdown that will be heard across the nation.

Cynthia Tucker is a first rate journalist who pulls no punches and suffers no fools.

2. Shows What A Circle Jerk And Scam They Are...
The reason she's on all these shows is she "wrote" a "book"...or more appropriately, she put verbage into a processor or trash compactor...and looking for suckers to buy it. Bill Mahrer ripped it but good the other day.

The fact she's getting so much "face" :puke: time is that she has a book deal and the publisher's "booker" made some sort of deal with ABC and the other corporates...you scratch our wingnuts, we'll scratch you with bigger names and cash. Considering what a fraud this oxygen thief is and how discredited she has been over the years, the only reason to put her ugly shoulder pimple on the teevee is to show how corrupt they are.

Now would they offer the same time to a Glenn Greenwald? Hell no.

8. She Wants To Be The First On The Blockhead...
You know her lemmings want/need something...and she's there to cash in. When I saw her on WJ, I swear she lifted most of her "charges" out of books written about the booosh regime. Could be she took the text from one of our blogs or books, changed booooosh to Obama and viola...book. :rofl:

Then she gets on CSPIN and says she was "critical" of booshie...she thought he wasn't repressive enough.

:hi:

I can't remember the last time I watched any of it.

10. When you're lying face down on the ground, you can't fall...
...it's a sign of them digging themselves deeper and deeper into a hole, or, rather, a cesspool.

13. probably trying to show guilt by association because...
Chicago has a long history of corrupt politics. I'm sure the associations are tenuous at best!

Let us not forget though, that Malkin has a history of making absurd accusations. I remember back in 2004 when she was claiming that John Kerry wounded himself in Vietnam to get his purples hearts. Chris Matthews was one of the first people to call her out on it and he did it in a TV interview at that! I hope he invites her on his show again to grill her on her new book!

15. She showed up on the Today Show last week.
'Interviewed' by Matt Lauer.
I couldn't believe they had her on.
Oh wait...yeah I can.

16. She's already been smacked down
She complained that the extension of unemployment benefits is a bad idea because people won't look for work. But panel members pointed out how when jobs are advertised, thousands of applicants show up. To which Malkin had nothing to say.

18. I thought it must have been difficult for her to share the speaking time with others
When she tried to talk over Hunt at one point, he just kept on talking and she backed off.

I imagine she's going to run to her laptop and do some venting in a screed.
