It seems like subtle parody to me. This person has made a splash today trolling over at Malloy's forums, and I just can't tell for sure...

Anyway, even if you can't tell, check it out, it's pretty funny stuff.

1. It's a parody. She's far too savvy to be that deluded
I support the Project for a new American century 100%.


How many Koolaid® drinkers do you know that are even aware of the PNAC, much less voice support for its proposed course of action?

4. That bit stuck out in my mind too.
But some of her posts over at the Malloy forums seem so authentically moronic, and her profile has a pretty normal looking pic, and the links all seem pretty straightforward.

If she's for real, she's a real head case.

Bush is the greatest American to have ever lived?

Come on...

2. If she's trying to be satrircal, she need to try harder.
All I see is a female version of this guy...

3. With her atrocious spelling, grammar and punctuation,
it makes it seem like a parody.

5. I hope it's a parody but I'm afraid it's not.
There are way too many out there like "Shelly". Scary

6. Parody. Her 'White House Homepage' link
goes to whitehouse.org, the satire site, not the real thing. However, most of the rest could easily come from a Free Republic denizen.

7. That could have been a mistake
:shrug:

I can't tell. I*s it live, or is it parody?
