Wow. Good work MM
Tancredo, what a wonderful man he is.
Congrats, Michelle!
Congrats and “how sweet it is” hattip to the Jackie Gleason…..oh yeah I am old enough to quote that ;-)…from reruns of course.
I have to wait to get home to view this, but already know there is a Grand Canyon’s variance between the views of Michelle Obama on America and those of our lovely hostess.
Great Colorado guy, thanks Tom.

Good for you, Michelle.
And, I used to watch Jackie Gleason’s “American Scene Magazine” when I was in high school.
Ouch! Did I just date myself?
Excellent, congratulations!
I love Tancredo’s closing line.
Congrats MM - you have arrived!
I hope Tancredo runs for the Senate!
And congratulations to MM!
Awesome! It is a great article, MM, and I think it’s great that Rep. Tancredo read it out to a lot of people who would not have read it themselves.
Damn, This is another moment in AMERICA WHERE I FEEL VERY PROUD.
PROUD OF MICHELLE MALKIN ( not michelle obama)
, and proud of Tom Tancredo.

WOO HOO!
I’m so proud of you, and for you Michelle!! And I’m proud of Tom Tancredo for drawing attention to the article to all the simpering and whimpering liberals.
I am glad this was not posted yesterday. This is great! Thanks Tom.
GOD Bless America!
“Tommy” was unavailable for comment.
So are our resident trolls.
Wonderful news of the day. Two great American’s, MM and Tom Tancredo.
L
Cool! That qualifies for a save as.
Good for you Michelle.
For the first time in the last 10 seconds, I’m really proud of the USA!
And her pen became a clarion…
Well done Michelle! A proud day! Well done.
Congratulations Michelle. Those are powerful words, I am truly happy for you.
Good over evil,the truth over BS,the cream always rises to the top.
You are truly to be congratulated.
Of course, for those of us here, it comes as no surprise - we’ve always known your quality. But now, at least, it will be a matter of congressional record that you’re the best.
MM kicks ass!!!!!!!!!
/s/
the guerilla
Fantastic! Congratulations Michelle. You deserve this honor.
Tancredo was my first choice for president and i still think I wasn’t mistaken.
Wow! Major honor. Now you’ll forever be part of the congressional record.
Michelle, that was wonderful! What an honor indeed, a piece well written and read by a man I admire and respect and who I know feels like we do, and is a Proud American!
I was moved to hear him read it and was hearing “God Bless America” as he spoke.
Well done, Michelle and well said Tom Tancredo, we love you both!!
It is the land that we love!!
I thought it was a great article when it was first published, as I do still yet today, Michelle.
Sadly, I am afraid Rep. Tancredo’s reading of it fell on a great many deaf ears in the halls of Congress, probably on both sides of the aisle.
Well done Michelle and Tom! After I listened to this it fill me with strong emotion and pride!

It just occurred to me that if I were to have Pinhead and Patriot segment, my choice for today would be:
Michelle Obama Pinhead
Michelle Malkin Patriot
*walks away with his shoulders back, head held high, proud of the country*
Great article the first time around. Even better hearing it read in the halls of Congress.
Congratulations, Michelle. Thank you, Tom Tancredo, for letting pride in our country be a good thing.
Huzzah!
Michelle, you rock! Don’t ever flinch under the relentless assaults of the ingrates of America. You have an army behind you, along side of you and if need be ahead of you. God bless you and your family.
We need more people like MM & more politicians like Tom Tancredo. They are few & far between. How about TC for VP?
Fantastic! What an honor! Congrats!
Aw, heck - can’t add anything more to that.
Take a victory lap Michelle - you scored!
Bravo Michelle! Well done!
Tancredo’s comment at the end was awesome, it gave me goosebumps. Well done Michelle. and kudos to Tom Tancredo for recognizing your work in the Halls of Congress, you deserve the recognition.
Congrats all around!
After 9/11 the National Colors were allowed to fly again, there were just too many for the US haters to smoother.
The obamas have released a PC breaking evaluation of black idealogy. Will Americans allow a racist to be president? I think not.

YES! Exactly!
Congratulations Michelle. This is another event that makes me very proud of My Country and you.
Local kid makes good.
Congratulations Michelle.
Michelle, you have make me hold my head as high today as a day in 1962 on the Parris Island S.C. Parade Ground, when I was called a U.S. Marine for the 1st time. Thank you and Semper Fi.
Tancredo really likes to pique and mix it up.
Makes me proud to hear your words, MM, being read by a true American patriot.
Thank You
BTW, Great story Michelle.
Congrats! I bow down before you. I love Tom Tancredo and he has served the state of Colorado honorably (unlike some RINO reps/senators in other states). It was a really great article, Michelle, and something to be proud of. Thank you for writing it.
Congratulations. Hopefully some of them were paying attention and had a light bulb go off in their heads.
WOW!
Very cool.
That was great. Makes me sick that we could have had Tom Tancredo as the GOP presidential candidate and we got John McCain.
What the heck happened?
Great article Michelle.
I wish the camera spanned the room and showed the faces of certain congress people, including that of Madam Speaker! I would have loved to see them recorded for posterity!
Michelle, you rock!
God Bless America.
Any chance Tom will be DHS Sec in a McCain Administration? Oh wait,Romney Administration maybe, or possibly a Thompson Administration, definitley a Hunter Administration. . . .but a McCamnesty? Probably not.
Good job Michelle.
Congratulations for going on the congressional record! We are a biased bunch here, but we are still proud to see you get the nod.
You nailed it Michelle!
I hope the critters were all at work to listen to those great reasons to be proud of the USA.
It would make me more proud to know that one of our Senators woulde re-read your piece for those critters too.
Strong candidate for my write in vote.
Thank you Tom Tancredo.
God god Michelle this old marine has tears in his eyes. That was beautiful!
I am proud of you, and proud to call you a fellow American.
Congrats, Michelle.
Thanks Michelle for having the skill and clarity to write it.
Thanks Rep. Tancredo for having the insight to read it into the Congressional Record.
I want a do-over on the Republican Presidential nomination.
First Class. Well done.
Great column, Michelle Malkin (I wanted to clarify which Michelle).
Great job by Tancredo. I hope he runs for the Senate—our country needs him.
Thank you, MM. Bravo.
Too bad the camera wasn’t pointed towards some of the usual idiots on the Left as Tom spoke. Their expressions would have been priceless!
Congratulations Michelle. You earned and deserve this. Hopefully it has liberals gnashing their teeth.
Speaking of liberals gnashing their teeth, check out the Drudge post about angry journalists venting their frustrations. My favorite:
Must work for the NYT.
I am going to miss Honorable Tom Tancredo, when he finishes his term. he is one of the Very Very few in Congress And Senate and Executive Branch) who is a true American Loving Conservative.
It’s sad that so few Republicans still hold on to the conservative mantle and are now Soiled and stained by long tenures of being led by lobbyist and are driven by their own desire for personal power and wealth their positions have created for them.
TT is one of the few Republican politicians in DC who is NOT gutless.
Its a shame we lose him next January.
But we here in CO-6 are trying to come up with someone worthy.
Congrats Michelle Malkin, and also to TT - once again the hypocrisy of the Obama pair is loud and clear.
Congratulations, Michelle.
Thanks for posting this.
What a great honor.
He stumbled over a few words, but otherwise it was great. Some guys just read stuff in monotone, but Tancredo put lots of emotion and energy into it.
Bravo to both of you!
HOOAH, Michelle! Congratulations to you for having your great essay brought to the floor of the U.S. House of representatives. Too bad every single Democrat wasn’t on hand to hear it.
It was inspiring to read and even more exciting to hear it read! Thank you for being you, M.M.
Congratulations all around!!
I wonder how many tens of millions of women of color in this country would give their eye teeth for the blessings and opportunities that this great country has afforded Michelle Obama.
I love it! I thought it was a wonderful article. Since you wrote it, they have been hiding Michelle Malkin in the shed out back. Good work, MM.
OOPS! I meant, hiding Michelle Obama out in the back shed.
Excellent article, Michelle! Congratulations to you!
It is ONE HUGE CRYING SHAME that Tancredo is not our nominee.
Michelle Obama reminds me of Suha Arafat!
Just inspiring Michelle. So wonderful to have you to speak for our country.
WTG MM
Well done, Michelle. Thank you.
I agree! and that is just awesome Michelle… wtg indeed!
WOOT! Play ball! Those girls are awesome. Chill factor x100.
Rep. Tom Tancredo, thank you very much! Michelle, you’re a sweetheart, but we all know that.
How I wish he was still in the race. We need people like Tom…and I’m a Fred! head!
What an honor for you, indeed, Michelle. Congratulations!
As for the other Michelle, they seemed to have locked her in the closet, figuratively speaking. But, there’s 5 months to go before the election, and they’ll have to turn her loose sooner or later. I can hardly wait :>)
Thank you for saying what each of us would if we had the talent and platform to do so..it is one of the most patriotic, heartfelt, expressions of love of this country. I’m very proud for you it is now part of the historic Congressional record.
Yes you can tell a little about a person by not only the company that they keep but by the admirers they attract. It seems that you have a fan in Rep. Tancredo and it does you both great credit!
Bravo Michelle!
Great job Michelle, you’re a great American hero! Props to Tancredo for reading it.
That piece needs to be read to every American and screw all the America-hating liberals if they don’t like it.
Might I buy a copy of today’s House record? A link would be wonderful.

I’d like to contribute to getting those words around, and the proceeds could go to a good cause to boot.
*
Nice to see good girls getting a break, in any event.
Remarkable words the first time around. Tom Tancredo reading them in Congress is icing on the cake. Thank you both. Two truly great Americans.
Wow Redwinged! Those Cactus Cuties were great! I hope we’ll get to see them at the Convention later this year. Thanks.
And once again, congratulations Michelle on the high honor of having your words written into the United States Congressional Record! We are all so proud of you and happy for you. May God the Father Almighty continue to Bless you and your family.
Michelle, the only higher honor would be having the President read it on his radio address. Hooray for you and REAL Americans everywhere!!
I am a naturalized US citizen and this Tancredo statement on the House floor made my day, no much more than that - it made me proud to be an American.
Your time is just starting MM. The fact that your get your critics to go so completely over the top (unhinged) with personal insults shows that you are hitting the soft spots. Can’t wait until Fox hires you as geraldo’s replacement.
Superduperawesomesticfreakingadelicious
I have been a big fan of MM and Rep. Tancredo for a long time. They tell like it is and how it should be. I would love to have Rep. Tancredo represent me but I already have one good rep. in John Culberson and another good one in Judge Ted Poe in the adjoining district. You people in Colorado need to find someone just like Rep. Tancredo. I would love to have seen the reaction of Michelle Obama if and when she reads MM’s article but I really don’t think she would understand it. Thank you Michelle and Rep. Tancredo for making my day. I really needed that. Please keep up the good work that you do.
Well done.
Whoo Hoooo congrats and thumbs up Michelle!
Keep up the good work Michelle! How can I get Tom Tancredo to run for the seat of senator in California against Feinstein or Boxer next time around?
Tancredo ended with his own words: “Madam Speaker, I am proud of America for many reasons, not the least of which is because it helped shape the character of Michelle Malkin.”
Well done, Michelle. Something for your family to be proud of for generations.
I suspect what Michelle Obama means is that she doesn’t like white America. Racist code.
Now that, I enjoyed
Good work, Michelle.
Now, don’t let it go to your head like Gleen did. I don’t want see your socks here.
That’s a joke, you know.
Mrs. Malkin:
Congrats!
Tom Tancredo was America’s hope against enemies (Islamists & Illegal Immigrants). America rejected Tom and sselect these traitors:
- Barak Hussein Obama (”Drivers Licenses for Illegals”).
- Hillary “No woman is illegal” Clinton.
- Juan “Amnesty” McCain.
In a democracy, people get the govt. they deserve and Americans who rejected Tom, certainly deserve the above.
Congrats, America!
It is about time Michelle’s unwavering patriotism is celebrated, and what better way then a nerration on the floor of Congress, from none other than a patriotic statesman, Tom Tancredo”.
Am sure Michelle has saved this priceless clips for her generations to admire.
I respect Michelle’s views on almost all issues, except when she stands up for President Bush, who has sold this country out to anyone with a petro dollar or a peso. Am surprised that while Bush’s treason is all to see, Michelle, perhaps in her patriot duty to ’support a sitting president’, disregards Bush’s record of treason against USA.
Bhishma, well said…
You really have to wonder what, if anything, the people of this country are thinking. How could have Hunter and Tancredo run so far behind in the primary? Are there really so few people in this country who get it, or are they so far removed from the political process that they vote off of sound bites? Maybe it just hasn’t got bad enough for many Americans. Maybe it will take a catastrophe for people to pull their heads out of their arses. I hope not.
People generally are illinformed and this is purposely the fault of all forms of media in our country. Fairness doctrine of some sort should be forced upon the major networks, where they all must report like FOX….both sides.
As of late I have been losing confidence in FOX, since they give special seats to Geraldo, Sharpton, and Jesse Jackson. When real patriots like Michelle are given little air time.
Awesome Michelle…Congratulations.
It is about time some common sense was introduced on the floor of the House of Representatives.
I hope you McCain voters watch this over and over again.
Ask yourselves if your man would ever take the floor of Congress to read something like this.
I was proud to have given Tom money to be elected President and voted for him even though he was not on the ballot in California.
You see I am now an Independent and had to get a provisional ballot because of the two party system that has shoved McCain down our throats.
Has Michelle (Malkin) ever thought of running for political office?
Her articulate response to Michelle Obama’s ignorant rant was a joy to read.
I am a European conservative (Scotland) and don’t understand much of US politics.
Scotty Dog (#107) Said:
“You see I am now an Independent and had to get a provisional ballot because of the two party system that has shoved McCain down our throats.”
It seems to me that US conservatives should get behind McCain for 3 reasons:
1) He will not surrender in Iraq
2) He will not inflict socialised health care on the unfortunate US tax payer
3) He will not seek to raise taxes (I could be wrong on this one)
Everything that US conservatives dislike about Mr McCain they are going to get anyway (regardless of who is the next President), so why not make the best of a bad lot?
Wow. Just wow.
