Malkin using irony, or nominating herself?

I try not to link to [ultra]right wing blogs with any frequency, but once in a while it’s justified to demonstrate the sharp twit that they sometimes exhibit.

Take Michelle Malkin [please]; the right wing blogger who spends the better part of her blog-time sitting near the top of the Ecosystem and Technorati charts, spewing hate messages toward Muslims, and serving as a rallying point for other negative and angry bloggers. She was mad at the Dixie Chicks yesterday, because we know they are harming the country when they ask why patriotism is so important to Americans as people are dying because of Bush’s patriotic war.

It’s not right for the Chicks to be so unpatriotic while their Congressional Representatives are passing non-binding resolutions “honoring the troops”. What’s great about the resolution is that it didn’t even say how the troops were to be honored. It’s just important for the soldiers in Iraq to know that their government is behind them, even if they are just saying they are. I’m sure they made the resolution non-binding, because if it was a law, how would they legally toss veterans into the gutter when they return, and honor them at the same time?

The day before, Malkin was attacking Olbermann’s book “The Worst Person in the World – and 119 more strong contenders”.

The obscene, abusive, unhinged jerk Keith Olbermann earns his own prize.

His book, “Worst Person in the World,” is due out in September.

The “worst person” designation, he told a reporter last December, is “for somebody who’s wrong and egregiously stupid and abusing their own position.”

“Takes one to know one,” says Malkin.

I believe the proper response to Michelle’s ironic statement would be, “Indeed.”
