Michelle Malkin on the Swastika

What's wrong with the picture below? Nothing, if you believe Michelle Malkin, who posed for it at an anti-stimulus rally in Denver this week.









If you have a problem with the swastika, you're just being "hypersensitive," according to her.

So quit your bitchin', you emo, touchy-feely liberals. It's just a swastika. It never hurt nobody!

Michelle MalKKKin?

[robiform]

This proves it--Michelle Malkin and Ann Coulter were separated at birth! Yes, I realize that they don't look alike, but they sure THINK alike!

[BlackJAC]

Will somebody please remind Michelle Malkin that she's Asian?

[Disgrasian - Huffpost Blogger]

It's a fact we constantly try to forget ourselves.

Last time we checked, the Nazis were really, really bad people and nothing much has changed about that history. Please, Malkin: stop.

It's not just the swastika per se, it's the fact that the swastika is in a circle, which is actually the "O" in "Obama", implying Nazism in someone who is about as far from being a Fascist as Gandhi. Now, I could understand if Malkin were a Buddhist who was pointing out that the swastika (of which the Nazi version is one variant) started out centuries ago as a Buddhist symbol. But being snapped partying with a bunch of skinheads doesn't give her a lot of cred.

Then again, she never had much cred to begin with.

It's almost refreshing when one of these people drops all pretense of civility and shows their true colors. Let's us know what we're dealing with.

[Manchurian]

Great point. But I still can't believe Malkin would sink so low as to tolerate and practically endorse this kind of racist behavior, especially given the Nazis' policies regarding "non-Aryan­s."

The good thing, though, is that she must really be suffering every time she hears or reads the glorious words, "President Obama."

If you have a problem with the swastika then you are sensitive. Sensitive to history and the horror that the symbol represents. As the symbol itself is 3000 years old though, it doesn't have to always be associated with the Nazi party.

"As the symbol itself is 3000 years old though, it doesn't have to always be associated with the Nazi party."

And yet, it will.

[foxfan]

More than likely.

[MajorKong]

Somehow I doubt the guy holding the sign was using it in the context of a 3000 year old mystic symbol.

[foxfan]

I agree. I was speaking of the symbol in general. Just to see it somewhere does not have to be an indication of anything sinister.

[BlackJAC]

And yet people still refuse to talk about all the times OJ Simpson didn't commit a crime. Go figure.

[foxfan]

Are you suggesting the symbol was responsible for WWII? I find your post confusing.

[blaqntelligence]

Reporting this is kind of like reporting daylight for tomorrow.
Now, back to the state of this country and its economy...­...?

[Bing Van Gorden]

Malkin announced that she is a proud un-patriot yesterday in Denver. Good for her.

[ohioan73]

My goodness. Why couldn't I have been born at least 100 years later. I'm jealous of my yet unborn great-grandchildren and the evolved world they will enjoy while I live in the jerky olden days. I thought I lived in modern times because I could never fathom what the 1930-40s were like. I was so naive.

Can't the rightwingnuts make up their minds? Is Obama a socialist or a nazi?

[philistine]

He's a socialazi. He's a nazialist. He's the antiChrist. Grab your MREs, guns and bible and head for the bomb shelter!

I can't believe how low the level of discourse has fallen among the wingnuts, especially the ones in the media. How can they get away with acting the way they do in broad daylight?

[MajorKong]

Apparently they think he's a Marxofascist. Which is sort of like a Carnovegan.

[doriath22]

Gee, what a suprise
