Michelle Malkin loves our country so much, she posed for a picture with this guy holding a swastika
Malkin responds to swastika Obama photo uproar

February 18, 2009 1:56 pm ET by Karl Frisch

Michelle Malkin is up with her defense for a photo we posted yesterday (originally posted by ProgressNowColorado) showing the right-wing blogger posing for a photo with a man holding a sign that uses a circled swastika as the "O" in Obama. The photo was taken at a Colorado rally against the President's economic recovery plan. For those of you who missed the photo, here it is again:



Malkin’s defense? Post a bunch of images using the swastika and Nazi imagery to attack former President Bush and other conservatives (including herself.) Like much of her writing, Malkin misses the point. Are there looney-tunes on both sides of the aisle who have used Nazi imagery to attack those with which they disagree? Yes.

Did Malkin post any images of prominent progressives -- say, Markos from DailyKos, radio's Ed Schultz or MSNBC's Rachel Maddow -- posing with someone holding a swastika sign? No.

1. Asian Ms. Malkin also argued that the US was right to intern Japanese
citizens during WWII.

I really think the bottom line with Malkin is money. She knows she can sucker the RW nuts for as much money as she can.

10. It's the self hate syndrome
Classic. Just like John Vitter hates perverts. Steele hates blacks. J. Edgar Hoover hated homos.

3. If we ever have another thread on sexual attraction and the role of evolution
Which we do every few months, and which always ends in a flame war, keep in mind that Malkin is physically attractive but a revolting person. I don't think any man with healthy self esteem would go near her.

6. I'm sorry. She's only "physically attractive" in an alternative reality.

Except maybe for one night stand that only lasts an hour or so.

4. Posed with guys that probably have philipino mail order brides!
Or they'd like to if they had jobs and any money.

5. I think she wants to out-do Ann Coulter,
but she doesn't have what it takes.

19. You couldn't pay me enough to walk around with the image of a swastika
or even pose in a photo with someone carrying that image. Even if the purpose was to bash an extremist and fascist conservative, I wouldn't do it. There was too much blood and murder associated with that evil symbol.
