Okay, give me the quick scoop on Michelle Malkin
I'm an avid cable "news" junkie, but somehow she has escaped my notice until tonight. She is obviously reprehensible. Is there anything else I need to know?

Is she just another RW hack scumbag-- al Coulter, Noonan , O'Reilly?

5. Pretty much
She does use her "minority status" to justify some serious bashing.

Chris Matthews raked her big time and all she could do was babble and run to Rush for comfort. She accused Olbermann of calling her an idiot which he never did. Then he trashed her some more. IT was sweet.

6. She didn't used to be...
Conservative, yes. But when she interviewed me (although she quoted me a bit incorrectly) she wasn't a White House lackey.

7. She also wrote a book...
about the "foreign menace" in 2000. Which is somewhat ironic,cuz she is not a native american. Anyway, my guess is that she wants to be another ann coulter, and we already have one too many !!

23. hmmmmm
I thought she was born here of phillipine parents. That makes her pretty native, unless you count, well...., uh, the NATIVE AMERICANS, doesn't it? She still sucks, though.

8. She should be put into an internment camp
As she is a danger to national security.

I mean, hey, that's what she says should be done to people who endanger national security, so I am just advocating her policy.

10. she supports TORTURE as well...
Five reasons to fear the Democratic party
Michelle Malkin (archive)

July 28, 2004
...

2. The American Civil Liberties Union. The organization maintains dangerously absolutist positions against the use of torture to gather intelligence from al Qaeda terrorists, against the designation of enemy combatants apprehended on either foreign or American soil, and against common-sense profiling in wartime.

In 1996, she joined the editorial board of the Seattle Times, where she penned editorials and weekly columns for three and a half years.

Malkin, the daughter of Filipino immigrants, was born in Philadelphia, Pa. in 1970 and raised in southern New Jersey. She worked as a press inserter, tax preparation aide, and network news librarian; she is also a lapsed classical pianist.

Malkin is a graduate of Oberlin College.

That explains the picture, the adhesive on her tuck tape was weakening and she was afraid IT would come flying out from under her pink chanel suit! I always thought she acted like she had something stuck up her ass...now I know...

14. Saw her on Hardball
I think she is very beautiful on the outside, and very, very ugly on the inside.

15. It's like this, it worked for Oprah, it worked for JLo
if you are a minority in a field where minorities are grossly underrepresented in proportion to the percent population of that minority group, you can garner a huge following.

And imagine how many sick, sinister minds would like to use a representative of one of those minority groups to con people in that group to act against the best interests of that group...there's where the Armstrong Williamses and the Ann Coulters and the Michele Malkins come in, because there is SO MUCH money to be made, and these people are shrewd and calculating above all else. They are like the Menudo of the media, just stand there and sing like a canary and you'll get a fat paycheck, we'll give you the lines and take care of everything else.

17. She was also on CSPAN this morning
whining and complaining that tweety had ambushed her and all that she had really wanted to do was talk about her book. I didn't get to see Matthews' show last night, so I went to msnbc and read the transcript. Then they replayed a clip on countdown. She came across so sweet and innocent on cspan and Brian Lamb simply ate her up. She is one of the dirtiest, most vile sacks of lying shit ever. Fits right in with her chosen accomplices.

18. I was in your shoes a day earlier. My impression based on limited research
Edited on Sat Aug-21-04 12:40 AM by countmyvote4real
She thinks she's a "babe" because a lot of people think so, too. I'm not one of them. Aside from the tarnish that is corrupting from within, she is not a classic beauty. Her features seem to be rather freakish.

She thinks she's an intellectual because she's managed to concoct a defense for the internment of Japanese Americans that apparently corresponds to our times and defends the Patriot Act. Have I read it? No. Will I waste my time or money doing so? No. Why not? Well, because my first impressions of her from her Hardball visit confirm that when she cannot debate with actual facts from multiple and irrefutable sources, she proceeds to make them up. Most damning of all, when her warrants are called to question, she throws a full blown hissy-fit complete with a little girl pout that would make Ann Coulter proud.

And like Ann Coulter her ideals, her pursuit of them or the corruption along the way have completely tipped her over the edge. She is a nutcase masquerading as a legitimate supporter for a nutcase masquerading as a legitimately elected pResident.

My Karma is not good. Even as I try to picture these people in a place with round-pointed scissors, white glue and a rainbow of construction paper, sometimes I still attach a prayer from Shakespeare’s Richard III that the “Earth will gape open wide and eat them quick.”

25. Perhaps you should return to your friends
as I don't think you'll find many here.

Your site is a project of Center for American Unity:
"The Center is concerned with what has been called the National Question - whether the United States can survive as a nation-state, the political expression of a distinct American people, in the face of these emerging threats: mass immigration, multiculturalism, multilingualism, and affirmative action."

Is this the type of group that puts the lipstick on the KKK? Still can't cover its pig-like quality.

20. if an illegal immigrant ever commits a crime in the U.S.
you can bet you'll see Michelle Malkin on Fox News repeatedly to talk about it. She gives their white racist base of viewers cover, just as they like to use Armstrong Williams or do backflips to quote Bill Cosby.

21. Malkin
Rabid NUT! I saw her on some show about a week ago spewing her vile shit, and she was, literally, spitting angry. I dunno WHO she was talking to--and he seemed a rather gentle shill for the repubs compared to what Olberman and Matthews did to her (I rarely watch tv, yet I DO read the odd transcript), but she seriously looked and sounded like she belonged in the nut ward.

"AHHHHHHHHH, LIBRULS, TERISTS, LOCK 'EM UP!!!!!!!" She just seemed like she was mad as a hatter. It was the first time I'd ever heard of her/read her stuff. Since then, I've been to her blog, and she's another liar.

She wrote a book justifying the internment of the Japanese (and thinks racial profiling is great), and until tonight, I thought she WAS Japanese, so it seemed all the fouler. She's actually of Filipina descent, I've heard since--dunno really.

Oh yeah, she thinks the Slime Boat Liars for Bush are actually telling the truth. Look it up on MSNBC.com--you can read the transcripts.

I actually HEARD her tonight on Mike's AAR show, and what I read was MILD in comparison to how she actually SOUNDED!!! Figures.

A Rabid NUT!

BLEH.

26. repugs are...
scraping the bottom of the barrel with this one. They know they can't send out someone with an actual reputation to protect, to spew the trail of sick she's spewing.
