By Michelle Malkin  •  February 9, 2009 01:22 PM

Did you notice the applauding troops placed strategically behind President Obama during his Generational Theft Act rally in Elkhart this afternoon?

(You can watch the whole thing here.)
So did many readers. Cory D. e-mails:
Why are there soldiers in uniforms cheering on Obama at his rally in IN?!?

Rahm: Zoning rules for thee, but not for me

Report: Rahm Lives in Illegal Apartment.
$%^&*@!!!!

A reader absolves all-knowing, smarty-pants Rahm of any responsibility:
A clarification concerning your post on Emmanuel Rahm’s illegal basement apartment. (http://michellemalkin.com/2009/02/05/rahm-zoning-rules-for-thee-but-not-for-me/) It’s not the responsibility of the tenant to make sure that their home is properly zoned — it’s the responsibility of the landlord. So, your story should be aimed at [...]

Bungle-mania: A D’OHbama Transition Progress Report

By Michelle Malkin  •  February 4, 2009 12:06 AM

Before I get to my syndicated column today, I must remind you of an unctuous, heavy-breathing piece written by New York Times columnist David Brooks on Nov. 21 of last year. Seems like eons ago. I blogged about the bordering-on-obscene column in a post titled “Ivy League ejaculations.” Here’s a bit of Brooks’ paean to [...]

WH spokesman on Daschle: “Nobody’s perfect”

By Michelle Malkin  •  February 2, 2009 02:15 PM

Interesting.
The White House press corps stopped snoozing today and is all over WH spokesman Robert Gibbs on the Daschle tax debacle.
ABC News’s Jake Tapper, who broke the story late Friday night, pressed Gibbs on whether Daschle’s ethical messes undercut Obama’s squeaky clean agenda. Several other reporters questioned the Team Obama talking point that Daschle [...]

What will the Bend Over Republicans do with tax cheat Tom Daschle?

By Michelle Malkin  •  January 31, 2009 05:06 AM

Before we get to tax cheat Tom Daschle, let’s recall the names of the Bend Over Republicans who pooh-poohed Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner’s tax troubles and accused critics of “thinking in small political terms.”
On the Senate Finance Committee, B.O. Republicans Mike Crapo, Orrin Hatch, John Cornyn, Olympia Snowe and John Ensign all determined that Geithner’s [...]

A few questions about President Obama’s first airstrike

By Michelle Malkin  •  January 23, 2009 02:02 PM

From the Times of London:
“Missiles fired from suspected US drones killed at least 15 people inside Pakistan today, the first such strikes since Barack Obama became president and a clear sign that the controversial military policy begun by George W Bush has not changed.
Security officials said the strikes, which saw up to five missiles slam [...]

A speech-free bubble around Bill Ayers

By Michelle Malkin  •  January 15, 2009 10:25 AM

Well, this is rich.
I told you last month that Weather Underground terrorist Bill Ayers was invited to speak at Florida State University. The FSU president defended the idea by asserting: “Danger lies not in some speaker’s ideas. Danger lies in teaching students that ideas they don’t agree with are not important.”
Sadly, but predictably, conservative ideas [...]

Obama’s speechwriter practices politics of grope and change

By Michelle Malkin  •  December 5, 2008 03:44 PM

Copping a feel of a cardboard cutout of Secretary of State nominee Hillary Clinton.
Classy!
Can you imagine if a GOP White House speechwriter were caught doing the same?
Next time, stick to rabbit ears.

My syndicated column today reports on Team Obama and the Obamedia’s mission to tear down Joe the Plumber. Yes, we are in the midst of a new contagion: Joe The Plumber Derangement Syndrome. JTPDS.

Crush the Obamedia narrative: Look who’s “gripped by insane rage”

By Michelle Malkin  •  October 12, 2008 11:50 AM

The Obamedia is attempting to set yet another false narrative: The narrative of the McCain “mob.” McCain-Palin rallies are out of control, they wheedle. Conservatives are mad! They’re yelling mean things about Obama and calling him names! It’ scaaaaary!
Paul Krugman is trembling: “Something very ugly is taking shape on the political scene: as McCain’s [...]

Oops: “Barack Osama” on the ballot

By Michelle Malkin  •  October 10, 2008 03:16 PM

If a GOP elections commissioner were responsible for this, well you know what they’d shriek:
RAAAAACISM!
Read:
Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama’s last name is spelled “Osama” on hundreds of absentee ballots mailed out this week to voters in Rensselaer County.
The misspelling, which elections officials on both sides of the aisle insist was simply a typo, is causing [...]

Isn’t it ironic…

By Michelle Malkin  •  September 3, 2008 10:37 AM

Reader Diana e-mails:
“Isn’t it ironic that most major newspapers will not print the names of minors involved in criminal acts including murder, but they can trash Bristol Palin? Just proves the drive-by media is driven to despicable double standards.”
