		<description>"Michelle Malkin. Is there anyone who writes with such fearlessness in the face of the most obnoxious, obscene, and nauseating criticism imaginable?"

Well, my god! Let's just roll her in maleable gold and polish her until she blinds the cosmos.

What makes John Cole better is that he is smart enough to realize the nuances, or even ambiguities, of most issues. Moreover he sometimes reviews beers. This is significant because he comes off as the sort of guy with whom I'd enjoy sharing a drink.

Malkin, by contrast, opines like someone who, had she been around at the Creation, would have been offering helpful hints.</description>

		<description>Lemming:

It's a good thing you don't read much. If you did, you would be horribly disappointed. Malkin has gone after many, many conservatives in her columns and on her websites for extremism. The fact that you are unaware of this only shows you to be the kind of idiot your comment implies.</description>

		<description>The Poor Man made a noteworthy point the other day about an interesting facet of the conservative movement: "how even the tiniest example of wingnuttery is a near-perfect replica of the whole edifice, substantively consonant in every particular but scale." 

Michelle Malkin's work, particularly her new book, *Unhinged*, is like that: a kind of embodiment in miniature, as it were, of the conservative movement as a whole. Just as Malkin ignores the clear presence of extremism within the ranks of conservatism and instead projects those tendencies onto her enemies, so too does the conservative movement as a whole.

And that, in the end, is the root of the problem.

Now, it's true that *Unhinged* is perhaps the most lightweight of all the liberal-bashing tomes that have been flooding the market. In a year or two, its publication will have been long forgotten, and its impact on the national discourse will have been negligible in any positive sense, in no small part due to its innate lack of honesty.
