liberal puerilism documented

Michelle Malkin first caught my attention on Fox News a few years ago. She was engaged in a sharp-edged debate and her brilliance and impassioned presence were riveting. (I know this is irrelevant and politically incorrect to say, but she is the cutest news journalist on television.) She's an American born Filipina.

Ms. Malkin graduated from Oberlin College, a prestigious Liberal Arts College, with a four year degree in 1993; I can find no further academic record so she is apparently an autodidact who has read widely and deeply. Her father was a doctor and her mother a teacher; she grew up in a family environment where political news was the central family interest and intense reading and discussions were the order of the day. She definitely knows her stuff.

"Unhinged" is Ms. Malkin's third book. Don't be put off by the garish and flippant cover; this is a serious and important work. Malkin has documented the rhetorical rubbish that has emanated from the liberal establishment since the Bush (43nd Pres.) years. This is not a book of merely passing interest; it will be referred to for years to come in studies of American politics.

The murderous hatred that the liberal-left developed for President Bush is phenomenal. Its grotesque irrationality went far beyond antipathy toward Bush's pursuit of the Afghanistan and Iraq wars. And its expression was not just from the unwashed lunatic fringe bloggers but to trash talk from school administrators, public officials, university professors and other respectable "pillars of society".

Ms. Malkin, for bringing this situation to public attention, now lives under threat of death. Opponents of her views illegally obtained and published her private home address, phone number, photos of her neighborhood and maps to her house on several websites. She has been forced to remove her children from school and to move her family residence.

One would expect Michelle Malkin to reply to her detractors with the same vitriol used against her, but instead she uses humor to show what fools they are. Her wit and verve cast a revealing light on the toadishness of the liberal mindset. The book is a quick read, informative, and thanks to Malkin's humor, quite enjoyable. There are 37 pages of notes, and a useful Index.

Ms. Malkin ends on a cautionary note: "The Basket Case Party has serious issues that threaten a healthy republic. We can help by holding up a mirror. But first, unhinged liberals must open their eyes." This is a first rate book and I highly recommend it.

Shocking

I am no stranger to the double-standards of the American Left. I got my bachelor of science degree at public university (i r kolij ejookatid) and have seen and experienced first-hand the genuine insanity of the Left, the hypocrisy and hatred they have for anyone who dares disagree with them or interfere with their goals. So it was no surprise what I read of Michele's first-hand experiences (as that's what this book is), but I was still shocked and saddened by what I read. An example, and one I won't forget, is where someone hatefully said that someone should put a bullet between those "gook eyes". Why would someone think such a thing of a fellow American, let alone say it in public? Was it because Michele threated or attacked this person's children? Stole thier personal info and used it to rack up hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt? No, because she's a public figure who speaks contrary to what the Left wants us to speak and do and think. By way of context, this is exactly why we have the Constitution we have here in the USA; because the fathers knew that in a democracy there are going to be dissenting opinions, and that there should be an open forum for the various opinions to be heard. But not so with the Left; they would silence anyone who differs with them.

I'm still shocked when I think of what was said, and it completely ignores the professed principles of these leftists. Tolerance? Love and compassion? Open-mindedness? (all directed especially toward those in the minority...?) None of that here. But what makes this even more sad is that this isn't an exception. This is standard operating procedure for leftists. Spend any time on an internet discussion forum, which I've been doing for over ten years, and you'll see this sort of behavior from the Left in almost any discussion. They regularly spew hate, ridicule, and scorn (often instead of facts and insight) for those who will not just fall into line with the Left's goals. Not unlike how things operate under a Communist or Nazi regime, I think. (If history holds any lessons, and it does, as the Left so often fails to understand) And THEY want to call conservatives (not "neo-cons") fascists and Nazis...

A Valuable Expose

This book was not the comprehensive critique or root-cause analysis of liberals-gone-wild, but it did serve as a valuable expose of unhinged behavior we might not have known about. In that regard, it has more in common with books on media bias such as written by Bernie Goldberg, than with in-depth reporting or analysis from people like Mark Steyn or Thomas Sowell. Still, it was very informative and well-written so I give it four stars.

Liberals aren't

That's essentially the book in a nutshell... pun intended. An entertaining presentation and read of the bleeding obvious that a lot of people just don't 'get.' Mostly a collection of anecdotes that illustrate the operations of noisy, violent, virulent leftwing morons. (Hey, it worked for Lenin.)

On the mark

I laughed, I cried. I laughed at the leftists and I cried because so many people think liberals are right.

A hilarious proof of the utter hypocrisy of Democrats who fashion themselves as role models of tolerance and civility.
