This is what a “big mashed up bag of meat with lipstick” looks like

By Michelle Malkin  •  October 14, 2009 12:02 AM

Washington Post reporter Ann Gerhart’s Page A1 conservatives-are-horrible-ogres article led MSNBC’s Keith Olbermann to liken me tonight to a “big mashed up bag of meat with lipstick” and to rail about my “fascistic hatred.”

But remember: Only conservatives are horrible ogres.

Newsbusters has the report for the 99.99999 percent of Americans who don’t watch Olbermann’s misogynistic freak show (vid here if you feel like torturing yourselves).

In case you were wondering what kind of lipstick we big mashed up bags of meat wear, I prefer M.A.C. Lustreglass in Ornamental or Lipglass in Spite. Because nothing goes better with fascistic hatred!

    MSNBC viewership is proof that even if you have nothing to offer you can get by on morbid fascination alone.

    to be a woman and despised by oberfuhrer is a badge of honor. he hates women, (competition), and really hates great looking women, (big competition). why is it that so many men of german ancestry get busted molesting the soccer players at the local high school? those nazis must have passed on some strange genes.

She should be awarded an honorary commission in the military as she is protecting the US Constitution on the home front just as much as our US Military worldwide. She is a true patriot and shoud be recognized for it. She is a threat to America’s enemies.

    OMG! According to Wiki, Olbermann dated Laura Ingraham at one time.
    I suspected he is not married or never married. Says he lives with some unfortunate woman.

    Personal life
    Olbermann briefly dated conservative talk show host Laura Ingraham (who has won the “Worst Person in the World” Award numerous times on Countdown) in the 1990s.[7] In June 2006, Olbermann began dating Katy Tur, a reporter with WPIX-TV; the two have lived together in New York City since October of that year.[9][78]

    Olbermann suffers from a mild case of celiac disease,[79] as well as restless legs syndrome.[80] He also suffered a partial loss of depth perception following a head injury from “leaping” on to the NYC subway in August of 1980[81] and, consequently, avoids driving.[7] Along with Bob Costas, he supports the Multiple Myeloma Research Foundation as an honorary board member.[82]

    During a period in the mid-1990s, Olbermann appeared in a series of Boston Market advertisements, in which he would instruct a group of underweight models to “Eat something!”[

    Son’s first day at school and the father asks,

    “I topped the class at Math’s today”.
    “Well son that’s because your a New Zealander”

    Second day at school and the father asks,
    “what happened at school today?”
    “I topped class in English”
    “Well son that’s because your a New Zealander”.

    Third day at school and the father asks,
    “What happened at school today?”
    “We played mini Rugby and after the game we were in the shower’s and I noticed that I had a bigger [redacted] than all the other boys”

    You just beat me to it; if I didn’t know any better, I’d say that Olbermann asked Michelle to have an affair with him and got “No” for an answer.

    I’ve watched Michelle for years, and can honestly say that she’s actually become more attractive over that time. As far as those CBL calendars go, when they come up with a “Twelve Months of Michelle Malkin” edition, I buy!

    Most of the criticism of Michelle is tinged with antisemitism. If you notice how people like Olberman and the guys at the Nation spit out the name Malkin and how they can’t even say the name Malkin without convulsing into their pathetic hatred. The loser leftists associate the name Malkin as a Jewish name and that fills them with their pathetic anger. Just look at the web sites of the Michelle Malkin haters and you will see endless diatribes against Israel with all kinds of hate filled trash about the State of Israel. It is not Israel per se that they hate, although they do hate Israel with unbridled passion. It is the fact of Israel as a Jewish State with a Jewish army that defends itself. I did a little web search of my own and on one of these pathetic sites, there was actually a disgusting cartoon that was quite racist with its cartoon of Michelle and in the cartoon background was a flag of Israel and a crude depiction of Ariel Sharon. A beautiful woman with a Jewish last name who is a conservative. For the leftists at the Nation and at MSNBC etc., that is a combination that must be destroyed. In a way I actually feel a little sorry for these weak, scrawny losers.

    I was only teasing, but I agree with your approach. Showing how completely unreasonable someone else is being by being completely reasonable and calm yourself is fun.

    Isn’t that the truth? A simple response like “well, give me an example” or “name one” usually has them looking pretty stupid.

    I got that once in grad school from a liberal coworker (with a Ph.D.). She heard me listening to Rush and was surprised that I could listen to his hate filled message and such. I asked her to give me an example, and she said “I don’t listen to him”.

    I pointedly asked if this was how she did all of her research, and promptly turned up the volume on the radio, smiling quietly. She turned beet red and left.

    It is just too easy.

    You guys hit the nail on the head. Liberals have brains of mush when they have to cough up facts or the truth. That one brain cell is taxed to the point they just walk away. The only way they can defend their point is by name calling which shows their level of intelligence.

    Mediamatters?

    REALLY?

    Could you find a more biased website?

    Anyway here is the actual article she was basing that on.

    http://michellemalkin.com/2004/08/27/the-latest-in-the-swift-boat-controversy/

    And here is the first paragraph.

    ” An officer who served with John Kerry in Vietnam said Thursday in his first on-the-record interview about the Swift boat controversy that John Kerry’s first Purple Heart was awarded for self-inflicted wounds. ”

    So she was quoting someone. So if someone lied it was that officer. You could argue some issue about fact checking but Malkin did not lie here, she simply pasted on what others said.

    MALKIN AND HER LIES ASSHOLE
    This just one today. Tomorrow I will fill your e-mail with over 25 more
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    Following Michelle Malkin’s August 19 appearance on MSNBC’s Hardball — during which host Chris Matthews refused to accept Malkin’s false accusation that a shrapnel injury Senator John Kerry (D-MA) suffered in Vietnam was a “self-inflicted wound” — conservative radio hosts Rush Limbaugh and Laura Ingraham hosted Malkin and gave her a forum to attack Matthews. Meanwhile, ABC Radio Networks host (and FOX News Channel host) Sean Hannity — without mentioning Hardball or Matthews by name — denounced as “just unbelievable” the treatment of Malkin “in an interview last night.” Malkin is a syndicated right-wing columnist, author, and FOX News Channel contributor.
    As a guest on Hardball, Malkin claimed that Patrick Runyon and William Zaladonis — the two veterans who were on the swift boat under Kerry’s command in Vietnam the night Kerry received the injury that resulted in his first Purple Heart — had accused Kerry of shooting himself on purpose. Both Zaladonis (who appeared with Kerry at his arrival celebration for the Democratic National Convention) and Runyon have defended Kerry and debunked that specific claim.
    The day after Matthews challenged her false accusations, Malkin wrote about her Hardball interview on her personal website. She called Matthews a “caveman” and “a foaming jerk”; decried his “Neanderthal chauvinism” and his MSNBC program’s “basement ratings”; and listed the phone numbers for Matthews and his producer.
    Later that day, as a guest on the August 20 edition of The Laura Ingraham Show, Malkin was comforted by Ingraham, who asked: “How’d you stop from reaching across and grabbing one of the chins of Chris Matthews?”
    In previewing the August 20 edition of FOX News Channel’s Hannity & Colmes on his ABC Radio Networks program, Hannity denounced Matthews’s treatment of Malkin: “Michelle Malkin will be on tonight. And I promise you, she will not be treated the same was as she was in an interview last night. Just unbelievable.”
    On his August 20 radio show, Limbaugh told Malkin that she “should be proud” of her appearance on Hardball. Limbaugh and Malkin also falsely claimed that MSNBC anchor Keith Olbermann called Malkin “an idiot” in the wake of her Hardball interview.
    From the August 20 edition of The Rush Limbaugh Show:

    MALKIN: They really got to change the name of the show to Slimeball or Spitball, because that’s what they threw at me.
    LIMBAUGH: Why did [MSNBC anchor Keith] Olbermann call you an idiot? Nobody watches that show, either, so…
    MALKIN: No, nobody does, but apparently he was just so carried away and –
    LIMBAUGH: It was because your appearance on [Chris] Matthews’s show [MSNBC's Hardball] earlier he called you…?
    MALKIN: Yeah.
    LIMBAUGH: So you had a carry-over effect.
    MALKIN: I guess so. [laughing]
    LIMBAUGH: Michelle, you should be proud. Careers are made over this thing.
    MALKIN: Well, it doesn’t make me happy that this is how it turned out, but I’m just disgusted –
    LIMBAUGH: You know something, Michelle, in all candor, there would have been a time, 15 or 20 years ago, when you’d have had nowhere to go to tell the story.
    MALKIN: That’s true.

    Olbermann did not call Malkin an idiot. From the August 19 edition of MSNBC’s Countdown with Keith Olbermann:

    OLBERMANN: And this woman, [Michelle] Malkin, who made a fool of herself on this network, about an hour ago, basically said that in this — in what she was reading, the book that accompanied the Swift Boat ad, that Kerry, at least, somebody asked whether or not Kerry should be asked, in that sort of, “Let’s step away from actually making a statement, let’s just put it as a question about a question about a question.”

    Michelle Malkin has been making the rounds on the talk show circuit peddling her new book, In Defense of Internment: The Case for “Racial Profiling” in World War II and the War on Terror (Regnery Publishing, August 2004). As Media Matters for America documented on August 10, Malkin has defended internment of Japanese-Americans (and other ethnic minorities) during World War II; defended racial profiling today; and said that Transportation Secretary Norman Mineta should be removed because his views are “clouded” by his personal experience as an interned Japanese-American. UNC School of Law’s George R. Ward Distinguished Professor of Law, Eric Muller, has noted several factual inaccuracies, distortions, and misstatements in Malkin’s “defense of internment”; according to Muller, “Michelle is not just rewriting history; she’s rewriting her book.”

    another reply to joel

    http://michellemalkin.com/2004/08/20/ambush-journalismor-my-evening-with-caveman-chris-matthews/

    And here is here post in which she explains the specific incident in question. She even corrects the “idiot” part.

    Again, there is not lie here and the one part she did get wrong she owned up to.

    Sorry but your claim about this being a lie has been debunked and in fact proves that media matters is wrong.

    More mail for joel. Its not going well for him and why would Michelle write her back??
    ———————–
    I believe the link, from her post, which links directly to the transcript of the event from MSNBCs own website. She always posts the email addresses of the hate mail she gets. She tells you that on her website.

    You did read the links right?

    Clearly not.

    Funny how WHATEVER that pig puts on her website you believe! DO YOU GET IT! WHAT SHE WROTE! She writes lies all the time. Takes most things out of context. She would do whatever dirt Fox tells her to do. The wonderful Fox Comedy station. Blatant lies and blatant liars. But you keep reading what SHE WRITES. She does it all the time.
    I can listen to any Democrat interview and then listen to any one of them tear it apart. That’s politics. BUT, they always lie and take out of context. THAT’S FOX! And she’s part of them.

    She is a coward. She can’t even write me back. Like what she did to Chris Matthews by putting his PHONE NUMBER on her website. She posts my e-mail and address because she’s a coward.

    In the lighter side of news, Lance Burri offers up a pictoral for the benefit of Olbermann of what a mashed up bag of meat with lipstick looks like, and what it doesn’t look like.

    Yes, it is a literal bag of meat Lance mashed up, though I have no idea where he got the lipstick.
