God this woman is stupid. Doesn’t she realize there is a war going on over there?

What better place for a blog-bunny?

Will it emphasize pre vs. post Saddam gains against a current status graph of potential interactions or will they care, given that people are still fucking shooting at them.

Oh, me, me, me. Those selfish old troops will just have to think of someone else for a few days. I mean, who’s more important to the war effort, a blogger who wants some publicity, or a bunch of soldiers?

No, hang on, that’s not right…

Malkin is going to get someone killed. Just like Ollie North did.

You caught me Snag. Damn, I’m such a hater. Now I’m ashamed of myself.

Sadly, I donâ€™t think even a little kid getting blown to shit in front of her would change her. Sheâ€™d claim the kid had it coming.

Or that the kid’s death was a plot by the liberal media to ruin her trip. And her expensive designer outfit. So her next claim would be to her insurance agency for full replacement value, since her cleaners would be willing to certify that both the body-part-stains on her dress and the nasty streaks on her dainty underdrawers were permanent. Which would lead to another column some weeks later, asking why the liberal media controls all the insurance agencies. Because if the universe doesn’t revolve around Malkin & her tiny circle of admirers, the terrorists have won.

Those of you who want Michelle to visit Iraq – I guess you do hate the troops after all.

Ifthethunder, thank you. Detroit gets an undeserved bad rap (we’re rough but we’re not nasty).
And yeah, I-75’s a rough ride. But you get downtown and there’s some cool stuff goin’ on (Greektown, Mexicantown, etc).
Come back now, ya hear?

God this woman is stupid. Doesn't she realize there is a war going on over there? I would venture to say "the troops" in general have no particular opinion of mainstream media coverage of their war vis-a-vis the particular focus on wire services or local stringers because...people are fucking shooting at them. And I'm sure they eagerly await Commander Malkin's report on "interaction between U.S. troops and Iraqi Army trainees". Will it emphasize pre vs. post Saddam gains against a current status graph of potential interactions or will they care, given that people are still fucking shooting at them. I desperately want to see both of these numbnuts in uniform "man"-ing the bulwarks against the Islam-O-Facists. That'd be sweet.

24/7 security and sound bites that would give Rove an orgasm (wrap your head around that!)

Aw, man. I just had lunch, too. Thanks a lot, lemonheads.

I went to Detroit last month on a business trip, and I just want to state for the record that I did not have a flak jacket, and I did not feel the need for one. (Although I-75 during the evening rush was a little hairy.)

I doubt direct exposure would change the Malkins’ (they should go together, of course) world view but I definitely support the effort.
Of course, her whole visit would be a Green Zoned, completely protected affair, complete with 24/7 security and sound bites that would give Rove an orgasm (wrap your head around that!).
But maybe just the sound of an IED, the first-person view of a soldier whose lost a limb; MAYBE a conscience can be revived. Maybe.
I’m not holding my breath, but I hold a scant hope of redemption for all.
The liberal in me.

Gentlewoman: Maybe a little danger would be exactly what she needed to be exposed to.

thunder: No, but an IUD explosion would split hers.

Truth to tell, I wouldn’t worry much down that road, GW. If you were assigned to the security detail you might draw some fire, but you’d be eating VIP chow and living pretty much a “non grunt” life. Hell, most eleven bs would make that deal. Otherwise? The shit starts to fly, I’m gonna protect myself and my guys. If you’re some dipshit civilian playing tourist in a warzone, well, figure out what to do on your own. ‘Cause the rest of us will be putting rounds downrange, calling for support and keeping an eye on our FNGs. You on yer own, cowboy….

I hope she doesn’t go. I wouldn’t wish for even someone as hate-filled and reality-challenged as Malkin to put herself in such danger.

More importantly, as Anne Laurie points out, she would also be putting the soldiers and Marines assigned to protect her into unnecessary danger.

Remember the officers who got blown up ferrying Ollie Fucking North and a couple of other ‘journalists’ around? I have a feeling that was not an isolated incident. They happened to be high-profile officers so we heard about it. How many enlisted folks have taken a bullet or a bomb for some asshat VIP on a ‘fact-finding’ visit?

“Wishing IED explosions on anyone is never cool.”

But we can run with the yeast infection, right?
