Michelle Malkin turns 35 today
Michelle Malkin (born Michelle Maglalang, October 20, 1970, in Philadelphia) is an American journalist, author, and political commentator. She is regarded as a social and political conservative.



http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michelle_Malkin

Malkin is the daughter of Filipino American parents Dr. Apolo and Rafaela Maglalang. She grew up in Absecon, New Jersey with her brother, Michael, and graduated from Oberlin College. She is married to Rhodes Scholar and economist Jesse Malkin.

Columnist and blogger Andrew Sullivan was accused by Malkin and several other bloggers of making bogus fund-raising claims. Shortly thereafter, Sullivan created a parody Malkin Award for what Sullivan claims is "cliché-ridden writing from the left and right intended to insult."

According to Malkin, she has been labelled an "Aunt Thomasina and a sellout and a race traitor" by Asian-American liberals. Critics have also referred to her as "an Asian Ann Coulter," to which Malkin has responded "I'm not Asian, I'm American, for goodness sake. I would take the comparison to Ann Coulter as somewhat of a compliment. I have a lot of respect for Ann Coulter."

3. How did someone who
How did someone who went to one of the arguably most liberal colleges in the nation turn out to be so conservative?

11. She was a winger before she enrolled
and Oberlin's "ultraliberalism" only hardened her stance.

14. consider the term 'C student'...

it pretty much amounts to a common description of the whole conservative pundit crew.

5. Flame away!
I enjoy reading her stuff. I don't agree with most of it but I think she is passionate and a good writer. I find her site the LEAST offensive to read regularly and see what the RW is up to.

35. Thats ok, I have a deep seated need to spank her...
Seriously there is something about her that turns me on, no matter how much of a Coulter lite she may be.

38. She is actually one of the few on the far right that I can actually
read without just freaking out, and yes I get the feeling she is a little naughty as well.

I actually wrote a rebuttal letter to her once and couched the last two paragraphs with some naughty remarks which was incredibly hard to do and not come off as rather sexist. I actually enjoyed the challenge of doing that part more than the actual meat of the letter.

6. Why are all conservative pundits sort of dumb
I'm trying to think of one that actually could support their opinions without resorting to fear.

It has to be the age, because IQ would be in single digits.

17. They say most people's faces lack symmetry and that one side
looks more evil than the other, but for the life of me, I can't tell which side of Michelle Malkin's face would be considered the good side.

She looks like she's taking a dump for someone ELSE.

And what the HELL would drive her to a uber-left college like Oberlin? I recently went there for a concert - it's kind of like picturing Tom Metzger at a synagogue. It just don't compute.

15. She disgusts me
Her rhetoric is uneducated and pedantic.

I will not make fun of her looks because I prefer a challenge. Her puny intellect is insult and ridicule worthy enough.

19. Bad plastic surgery on the eyes and
Beaver teeth.

Is she another one? You know the type unicbushbot.

No kids.
No boyfriend, ever...
Never had sex.
Virgin
Not even a lesbian.

Atleast if the camera catchs her right she does look like a girl over Man Coulter, Ms. Doubtfire Meirs, ConAtleastYa Rice

Apparently she hates to be called by her real name.

34. Of course she does. She's a racist.
Probably looks in the mirror and sees a "perfect Aryan blonde face" staring back at her. That's why Trannie Annie is her role model.

but she seems to be filled with nothing but hatred, anger, and a need for attention. Shame, really.

She a Fifth Columnist?

Heh, heh. Let's ship her to an internment camp. She hates Japanese people, too, especially Norm Mineta.

28. gotta hand it to her: she was an early skeptic of the New Orleans rumors
So she does have at least that much sense -- which is more than some people can say, unfortunately.



(Lest anyone forget: those asinine rumors...)

31. Wonkette's upcoming novel has a Michelle Malkin character
The "thuggish prude" columnist -- with a name like Marilyn Talcum, she has to be Michelle Malkin , doesn't she? But as for the socially awkward reporter, or the pundit who would leave a relative's funeral for a five-minute cable spot -- the possibilities are endless! And our lawyers prefer we not speculate on the inspiration for the telegenic political writer who cheats on his wife.

39. I wonder what she has to say about the American-Philippino War
that began in 1898 when the U.S. invaded the Philippines and tried to make it into a colony. For about 13 years, the U.S. fought a dreadful guerrilla war in the Philippines, losing over 5,000 soldiers and with estimates of civilian deaths as high as one million. It's been called 'America's first Vietnam'.
