SPOTLIGHT: MALKIN-- New Book Revives Critics, What's Their Real Message?
The Radio Equalizer- Brian Maloney ^ | October 30th, 2005 | Brian Maloney

What is it about Michelle Malkin that so quickly works liberals into a frenzied state?

All it takes is a television appearance, published column or radio interview to enrage so-called "progressives". Why, reserved for her, these particular heapings of vitriol?

Certainly, ethnicity and gender must play a role, as liberal anti-Malkin hate closely resembles that of serial Condi-bashers. For non-conformity to leftist cultural expectations, both experience routine partisan media punishment.

And as can be imagined, some of the meanest attacks come from liberal Asian-Americans, who seem to feel there is some ethnic mandate to follow Democrats off the cliff's edge.

Crossing the line well into stalking territory, they've plastered her personal details all over the Internet and make a constant, bizarre and irrational fuss over her maiden name.

Because, unlike the harpy Ann Coulter, MM can be taken seriously.

Even leftist polling organizations (e.g., http://www.newamericamedia.org ) show that Filipinos such as Michelle are the most conservative of all ethnic groups in America, followed directly by Vietnamese immigrants.

The few liberal Vietnamese I've heard in any extended discussion sound like borgs, emitting sound bites and canned phrases that bear no relationship to their ethnic reality but quite a lot to the DNC.

Hey now. Malkin is my favorite but Ann serves a purpose: she pushes the envelope and invites vitrol from the left that would otherwise be directed at people like Malkin. She runs interference so others aren't shouted down.

I have read the html instructions on home page, but am never able to make a url be underlined, nor do I understand the prescribed sytax? Anyone have an idea what I need to do?
