Politics Michelle Malkin Hits Rock Bottom

I wonder who thought that was a good idea?
Is that actually Malkin in the video? Did she know that was an impersonator doing Ms. Obama on Fallon's show and not the real one?
What the fuck is wrong with these people?

My favorite dance move on display here was the "desperate-for-attention-hack" which she is doing throughout.
5
Why did you post this? I have now added a view to that stupid video, and it was not even terrible enough to entertain me.
7
At least she's staying current, what with the Menendez reference and all. Were the Menendez brothers known for being particularly liberal?
....and people say white folks can't dance....

@3..everything i'm reading says that that was the real first lady with fallon and not an impersonator.
....but still..

@7 I think she was trying to reference the Robert Menendez "scandal", wherein he received free flights on a private jet owned by blah blah...
10
Given the total hypocrisy of the Onion's use of the "c word" (even if for comedic purposes) in conjunction with a child, I don't think any lib should show her face today.
12
She looks like she is trying really hard not to just start twerking it. Those conservative chicks like to make it pop.
14
Actually, I quite liked it (with the sound off). Kinda like Michelle's little sister practicing for her prom.
19
Yep, more proof the only things conservatives think is funny are things they think will piss off liberals.

Can they be any dumber?
I go to the new Sushi Place at Kent Station...they have a 3 for $20 roll special.
I get a table...this time I don't have to sit at the bar which suits me better. I place my order and get ready to enjoy my lunch. Then someone turns on the radio...it's KZOK 102.5 Classic Rock.
Great, perfect...but wait. The station isn't coming in well. It skips and has static. So it will play 5 seconds of ZZTop, then cut out for 3 seconds, and then have static and cut back in again. It's really loud and noticeable.
But guess what...everyone else is completely oblivious to it all. I figure, this is so bad, someone will adjust the tuner. Nope. Goes on and on. Finally when the wait comes back, I joke, "hey I guess you need a new antenna". He stares blankly. Judging by his age that antennas are as relavent to him as a hand crank on a car, I add "because the music is cutting in and out". He stares, and the laughs heartily like a man who will laugh to get his tip no matter the humor!
I have my food and I try to grin and bear it...but after 20 minutes I start gulping down my rolls and drink and hurry out of there.
As I leave, the equally dim witted hostess at the door asks "Did you enjoy it?"
I replied, in the same staccato pattern as the radio, "Yes......it...tit...tit.......was....
ver.....great....I.....come.....
in.....again."

Much like conservatives prefer the bubble based phony news of Fox, I suspect they eat shit like this up.
23
Oh come on, you people have no sense of humor.
You see, what Michelle did here was to imagine liberal themes as a dance. Like, if raising the debt ceiling was a dance, you'd kind of lift your arms up like you're raising the ceiling, right? And that's really clever and funny! Cause it's like a dance version of liberal themes!

@10: you mean the twitter post that pretty much the entire left blogosphere spent the last 18 hours pillorying the Onion for, culminating in a full apology from their CEO who apparently woke up to realize he'd just completely cheezed off nearly his entire core customer base?
25
The Menendez bit refers to Sen. Menendez (D-NJ), accused of flying somewhere and consorting with prostitutes with some major donor.
As for the rest of it, it's a long way from bottom for whatshername, or for political "humor" in general.

@21 They sure do. They love it. Just look at the comments on youtube. As much as I despise them, the comments that really irk me are the ones saying horrible things about the FLOTUS/President/liberals. The comments loving this stupid video don't bother me as much.
27
Meh.
They're sore losers - what else is new?
They've been throwing childish temper tantrums like this for the last 5 years.

It's awful, but it's nowhere near the bottom of what this fiend is capable of. Sure her dancing stinks, but it's when she's talking, writing, or "opining" in her awful sub-literate whine that she scrapes the lowest rungs of human endeavor.
34
Oh my god, that was hilarious. I have no idea who that is. I vote dem, btw. I love the Obamas. Michelle Obama is by far the coolest person to ever step foot into the white house. But I still think that was hilarious. I like dumb jokes though. The Prius out of battery was really funny, since they use a gasoline generator. Is she making fun of liberals? Or is she a mocking conservatives? Since I do not know her, I cannot tell.
35
I'm kind of obsessed with Michelle Malkin and I assure you she has sunk *way* lower than this. She once stalked a family with a sick child to prove they didn't deserve government assistance. She also wrote a book in defense of internment. This is a painfully unfunny self-parody of what conservatives think about liberals, but it ain't rock bottom by a long shot.
37
I'd watch it if only I could watch it without any sound and text. But I'm not going to because that would give it a view hit or whatever the hip tech internet people call it.

Err. Why is this called the Evolution of Liberal Dance? It looks exactly like the Evolution of Conservative Dance.
45
@8, @22 You could be right, and she does look like Michelle Obama, but I'd like to point out the real Michelle Obama is 5' 11" and the woman she's dancing next to appears to be 2 inches taller than her. Also, she appears to be wearing a wig. And, she looks younger than Michelle, with a little less angularity to her face.
Now, it's entirely possible that the other woman is 6' 1", that the lighting is very flattering, and that Michelle was wearing a wig.
In which case, I apologize for suggesting otherwise.

Ok, I am confused. Has, at any time, Michele Malkin contributed anything useful to our culture? Or has she spent her time as an adult screeching, in print, the most vacuous of screeds, all fulminating at "Liberals"?
And, @20: Wow. I didnt think it possible, but your blog is even more boring than your pathetic attempts at trolling on these boards.

@48, @49 Ooops. So it is. And, so she is.
Confession time: I don't watch Fallon much, and I've never seen his drag shtick. I only saw this routine in the embedded Youtube window where...
No excuses, I fucked up. Yes, I was clueless. Can you accept an apology?

@54 Sigh... And on top of the cluelessness, I just fucked up the numbers. That was intended to be directed to @47 and @48.
56
To her credit, she's playing to her fans. Like Clint Eastwood's bit at the Republican convention, I'm sure that killed with her target audience.
58
@55 I wasn't trying to be a jerk, prosopagnosia is actually more common than we think, and just from the comments (identifying people on their height, their voice, or their hair style rather than recognizing pretty significant facial features like the "woman" having a beard) are all pretty big flags.
Most people that have prosopagnosia don't even realize they do because they've created ways to cope.

@58 Even without prosopagnosia, expectation plays a large part in what we see. Having never seen Fallon do drag, and watching the shtick in a 300 pixel embedded window, with a 30-pixel-high face, all I saw was someone playing an shlumpily-dressed, unattractive, slightly discoordinated woman in a bad blond wig. I didn't expect it to be Fallon, and he really had the motion down, which added to the misdirection. Then, when Michelle O showed up, the tallest First Lady of all time, and was shorter than Fallon, I was well up the wrong creek without a paddle.
Again, sorry.
Again, sorry.

Anybody remember when those church folks protested "Papa Don't Preach" for its stance on a woman's right to choose (either option). It was called "Madonna Don't Preach" and featured rhythm-free pastors and choir members lip-synching and performing an utterly sexless version of the actual choreography of the video. This has the very same desperate-to-be-current vibe. But arch-conservatives can never pull this off; they are by definition behind the times. Sad. Hilariously lame and sad.
