That's perpetual dumbass and apparent Nazi sympathizer Michelle Malkin, yukking it up with one of her shit-for-brains Nazi-lovin' fans at an anti-stimulus rally in Denver, organized by an unholy alliance of right-wing radio screamers, their misguided, angry listeners and Malkin herself. Maybe her Nazi friends were helping her with research for her very own Mein Kampf.
The protesters at these rallies--they are being organized nationwide--scream about "porkulus", routinely call President Obama a socialist and/or communist (not sure where that swastika comes in) and refuse to acknowledge that people are in the trouble they're in largely through GOP policies and their Confederacy-enabled Wall Street greed and malfeasance. In other words, stimulus protesters vote and rant against themselves.
From Colorado Media Matters:
Conservative author and Fox News contributor Michelle Malkin, appearing as a guest on KHOW's The Caplis & Silverman Show, asserted it is not "out of bounds" to analogize President Obama to Adolf Hitler. During a discussion about a photo taken in Denver of her posing with a person holding a sign showing a circled swastika as the "O" in Obama, she claimed without providing evidence that a progressive group conspired to capture the image and asserted it is "the M.O. of the left" to "play[] the Hitler card." Neither host pointed out that numerous conservative radio hosts -- including some on KHOW and sister station KOA -- have used Hitler or Nazi references and allusions in criticizing Obama and other Democrats.
MALKIN: I was there with hundreds of people to protest the president's signing of the "porkulus" bill. And afterwards there was a huge mob of people that came up wanting to talk with me about the subject of the protest, wanting to shake my hand or take my picture. This happens often. And, as is usually the case, I try to be as accommodating as possible. And there were a couple of left-wing outfits who were prepared with their cameras -- video and still -- and just coincidentally happened to be there at the very moment that someone shoved a camera in my face and I dutifully smiled. The picture was snapped and immediately showed up on these left-wing blogs --
CAPLIS: Mmm-hmm.
MALKIN: -- who then pestered the mainstream media to do a story about it. And one of those outlets bit. They knee jerked and they bought into the narrative that I somehow endorsed whatever this person's message was. And you have another case of reductio ad Hitlerum. This is the M.O. of the left. And, again, I think the main question is, why is this news? Who is doing this? What is the agenda? Not, did you know who it was? And did you agree with their message?
Malkin's entire oeuvre consists of paranoia and a hyperventilating hysteria over what she sells to her gullible lemmings as an all-purpose "left-wing" media conspiracy. If faced with a fact that doesn't fit her narrative, Malkin conveniently sells it as having sprung from the dreaded "MSM"--the hard starboard's fave designation for the "mainstream" media. On their hit-list: broadcast networks, the New York Times (Public Enemy Number One to Malkin & friends), as well as CNN, MSNBC and virtually every other news outlet that is not owned by Rupert Murdoch, the religious right or which doesn't operate as a right-wing blog.
When and where all these "MSM" competitors get together in some secret location to conspire against Republicans, I do not know. Maybe they use GoToMeeting.
Why FOX News and the New York Post are not considered "mainstream"--they are chits in media megalomaniac Murdoch's News Corporation, after all--most certainly is a result of their fringe-right editorial stances and not their size.
For pure freak theater, Malkin is still lapped by anorexic hate-scarecrow Ann Coulter, though the latter is an obvious template. But Malkin is close to even in craven stupidity, and she hasn't even hit her rock-bottom yet.
