Here’s that intriguing morning appearance I teased in Monday’s Hannity post. A bunch of you thought I was talking about “The View,” which broke my heart because how awesomely awesome would that have been? Ah well. Enjoy Lauer affecting shock at the idea that a guy who tried to prove his “authenticity” by spending 20 years in Reverend Wright’s Church of the Perpetual Grievance, who once famously accused Team McCain of having a problem with the fact that he doesn’t look like the other presidents on U.S. currency, and who was known to reference “Malcolm X” while addressing black audiences on the campaign trail might possibly be guilty of racial opportunism. Although, in The One’s defense, what kind of progressive would he be if he wasn’t?

Best part: The boss lighting into Michelle Obama for her history of cronyism, much to Matt’s horror. Be sure to watch to the very end or you’ll miss the look on his face as he wraps the segment. I’m guessing she wasn’t booked at his insistence.

The best part of the interview is the last 5 seconds where LAuer is cutting away for commercial. Look closely at his face -- crap sandwich time!!!

Michelle ate his lunch, and he knew it.

I love Michelle... If she can’t be my wife, then I wish she was my little sister or something, she is awesome.

Michelle has more testosterone than the entire GOP.

It takes a lot of courage to go up against the Chicago Machine.

If she can do it, so can we.

Pick up the phone and call your Congressman and tell them no on Obamacare—before Nancy Pelosi does an end run before Friday night and gets a floor vote on it.

Do it for Michelle M.

Michelle speaking “truth to power”! Love it.

[ExTexasRedhead]

Taking it to the MSM. Delicious!!!

[Jim from C-Town]

Much like Sarah Palin, Michelle has the scars to prove that she fought the battles. She has had to move her family and has had to put up with constant attacks from the race baters and leftist haters for years.

She is a mother who has had to protect her family from vicious attacks and she has the power and ability to fight back.

Lauer was fair, he gave her a chance to say her piece, doesn’t happen often.

She was great, well spoken, and great looking.

[Sig Sauer P220]

Awesome! Absolutely awesome! She nailed it again.

Take time to view this video, and pass it on.

Great job, by Malkin. I think all conservatives can take a lesson from her and how to deal with the liberal, MSM. Just politely, and with a smile, talk right through their objections, pressing forward with the truth, without back pedaling of apologizing for speaking the truth.

[nathanbedford]

Poised and prepared.

If I can't have Newt Gingrich to be chairman of the Republican National Committee can I have Michelle Malkin?

[Maverick68]

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.......

[wny]

the woman is brilliant and gorgeous

[MrB]

Maybe with fireballs like MM & SP,
others will step up and start
bringing a gun to the gun fight.

[Marysecretary]

She’s amazing. I think she does more good for our cause than Ann in a way because Ann, even though I love her dearly, is far more caustic. I’m glad both of them are on our side.

[Marysecretary]

You’re right. He was fair. It’s more than Hannity and BO would do if she were on the left and being interviewed by them. Their constant interruptions are soooo annoying.

[yorkie]

Do you know how far into the show Michelle makes her appearance? I just saw this headline, and I’m on the ‘left coast’. (It’s been on an hour, now.)

Yes, I agree.
