Apparently, someone created a fake URL, "MichelleMaglalang.com," and directed it towards a google search for the terms "Michelle Malkin" and "whore."
I agree with Greg. This is not fucking funny.
Should I bother pointing out that Ms. Malkin's next book, Unhinged : Exposing Liberals Gone Wild, is all about "the utter hypocrisy of Democrats who fashion themselves as role models of tolernace and civility"? Thanks for giving her more ammo for her book tour.
Exactly. Duh. And as he points out, directing searchers to this is much more effective than taking a cheap shot. If there is one thing we know, conservatives just love to point to examples of liberal "intolerance" and scream "where is the supposed 'tolerance' of the left?" Thanks for giving them another example, morons.
Another thing that is bothering me about critics of Malkin: far too many idiots are more than willing to attack her with racial slurs.
Racism is a Republican Value. If there's one thing I never want to see progressives, Democrats, and liberals associated with, it's racism. So when someone posts on their blog complaning about Malkin, it does no good to make comments about "slants." Or "that gook bitch." (Which is ridiculous as well as racist.) Or even something as crass as "And people wonder why I don’t date Filipinas."
Look, if racial slurs are the only way you can express your anger and frustration against Michelle Malkin, do us all a favor and join the Republicans. Surprise! You're a racist. And we don't want you on our side.
Malkin is the queen of the strawmen, her own racism is legendary, she's willing to smear a grieving mother to protect the worst members of the Republican party, and her writings are so full of holes, you could write a blog about them. Let me spell this out: she is an easy target; if you need to rely on racial slurs to "discredit" her, congratulations! You're even worse than Malkin herself.
I'm almost positive that MichelleMaglalang.com wasn't registered by somebody on the right to embarrass liberals. I'm not going to give out the person's info, but a little research showed that this is the product of someone on our side.
Thanks for nothing.
UPDATE: Apparently, the url owner changed the link to the PBS one above. Nice gesture, but the damage is already done. Next time, think first.
