Where in the world

By Michelle Malkin  •  October 20, 2008 01:58 PM

I’ll be on Neil Cavuto’s show on FNC at 4pm Eastern to talk Palin, Obama, and socialism.

Related food for thought from Stanley Kurtz and Ed Morrissey on The Spreader of Wealth’s socialist New Party ties.

Blogging may be lighter than usual the rest of the day. I’m celebrating the big 3-8 today and counting my blessings. At the top of the list: My family and freedom (for now).

Here’s a fun flashback photo from 20 years ago — taken at high school graduation — via my classmates at Holy Spirit H.S. in Absecon, NJ. Check out my Big South Jersey Hair. Time flies!

    Yes, Michelle, indeed “Happy Birthday” and Amen to all the above wishes of blessings and happiness! Keep kickin’ butt!

    Watched Governor Palin in Colorado Springs this morning on a ‘net stream via a local ABC affiliate. She pulled no punches and hammered Obama very nicely. Of course, we won’t hear of it on the MSM. Creeps! It ain’t over ’til the fat lady sings and she ain’t even practiced yet…

    Best wishes to you on the anniversary of your birth. (“Happy birthday” is for conformists. [Ell oh ell.]) I’m in that limbo of mid-30′s-land, too, though you’re still my elder by a little less than two years. Thanks for sharing the photo.

    Dunno if this serves as a compliment, a gift, or what (probably what), but I’d like to say that your blog and many other contributions have been very influential in strengthening my own convictions and expanding my awareness of national and world affairs (and even local affairs, to my chagrin), and I hope I get to read and hear your insights well into my golden years.

    You looked great on Cavuto, by the way. May this day be relatively unhinged-free for you.

    Saw you on Cavuto – as usual, great job and great to see you nailed it to a tee!

    Happy B-day and enjoy it to the fullest. We promise to play nice in the sandbox while you’re away – unless, a toady trol gets mouthy, then all bets are off! ;)

    Filipina’s have the most beautiful hair in the world. Indian ladies have awesome hair too but it’s usually very straight but still lovely. I guess just knowing Michelle the way we do makes her a beauty from the inside out. Kinda like my 87 yr old mother before she died. Dumocraps would never understand anything about inner beauty because they don’t have any. Happy 38 Michelle and I hope you have at least 38 more. God Bless you and yours!! BTW, am I being racist for mentioning hair?

    Michelle, happy birthday to one of the best examples of Conservative common sense and values and best wishes to the best looking Conservative I can think of. You, and your fine work have been a great inspiration for me.

    BTW Michelle, I just turned 43, and trust me, you do not want to see MY high school pics!

    Happy Birthday Michelle, from a fellow Libra. I am 10 years, plus one week older than you.
    You are a great example of the American dream from the conservative point of view. You are also a dream in your own right… with all apologies to Mr. Michelle.

    Alec Baldwin would have to admit you were hot, too!

    I second the comment above about the Hair of Filipino women: yours is really gorgeous, then and now.

    yeah, HAPPY BIRTHDAY! You aren’t supposed to tell people how old you are. I would have guessed you were somewhere around 22 or so.

    The picture is great! I’ve seen some pictures of me in my drug induced college haze hippie days and it ain’t pretty. Long hair in a pony tail and all that jazz. But HAPPY BIRTHDAY and the appearance on Cavuto was great as usual.

    Sorry I missed your b-day yesterday. May you have many more that I don’t miss.
