Another Malkin Lie Exposed
Edited on Thu Jun-15-06 02:06 PM by Bob Geiger


One of the best things about being a part of the progressive media is that if you don’t have time to personally slap down a lying piece of right-wing garbage, one of your talented colleagues will pick up the ball.

Many thanks to my friends Taylor Marsh and Barbara O'Brien for taking on Michelle Malkin, who crawled out from under her rock long enough to lie about the audience's reaction to a portion of Hillary Clinton's speech yesterday at the Take Back America conference.

According to cancer-on-journalism Malkin, she was posting video of "… Hillary getting booed as she asks progressives to support the troops."

Sounds bad, right? The only problem is, it didn’t happen.

Here's Barbara in a piece appropriately titled "Michelle Malkin is a shameless lying bitch."

Malkin says progressives booed Hillary because she asked them to support the troops. If you play the clip she linked to, you can hear people starting to boo when she talks about the troops — something to the effect that the troops are the best we have — but then the clip cuts off suddenly.

What Malkin cuts off is that people were shouting “BRING THEM HOME!”

They were not booing the troops. They were booing Hillary for not supporting the troops.


The always-sharp Taylor Marsh cooks Malkin on a low flame as she explains what really happened to her in a way so simple my eight-year-old son could understand -- even though Malkin knows damn good and well what actually happened.

There was "loud booing" after Hillary talked about it not being "smart strategy to set a date certain" to get out of Iraq.

Now, look at the part in bold again, Michelle. See it? It was almost impossible to hear Clinton.... WHY? Because of the booing that happened, why? Because Hillary said -- one more time with feeling, just for you, Michelle, and Hot Air, too -- it wouldn't be "smart strategy to set a date certain" to get out of Iraq.

The booing was so loud Hillary couldn't be heard.

What did Hillary then say AFTER THE BOOING ALREADY STARTED?

That's when she talked about the troops and our country.


Taylor also takes Malkin to task for doing the same thing Team Bush does almost every day: Using the troops to further her own political agenda.

Please go read Barbara and Taylor's posts. And that, should be the end of that -- at least until Malkin's next lie.

12. These people only get face time because of Faux and MSNBC(Little Faux)
And if you check the numbers between the two stations 95% of the population don't know any of these clowns.

18. Hillary
I like Hillary. I think she was booed because she doesn't want to set a deadline for removing the troops from Iraq. She made a judgement call which didn't sit well with some in the audience.

23. I know, you're not stealing my jokes (see #10), just making them better.
My wife and I have a running gag about my stealing of her jokes. I always say that I am not really stealing them, just making them better(funnier).

27. Hypocrisy Personified
Isn't this the same women who in her last book claimed that the right "police their own" to weed out extremists and conspracy theorists? (And yes I am aware of the irony of that statement seeing that the GOP did not prefer the more moderate John McCain to W.) Yet here she goes using edited footage to make some extremist point that progressives hate the troops.

She also supported Coulter's new book, complete with vicious rants against the 9/11 widows, the argument that liberals get their kicks from killing people, and that the theory of evolution is kept alive by huge orchestrated networks of liberals CONSPIRING together. This makes me wonder: how insane are the extremists and conspiracy theorists that they right does weed out?
