Note that Malkin refers to extending unemployment benefits as a “lard-up.” I’d like to introduce MM to a friend of mine, currently skimping by on unemployment and worrying about her job search and when her benefits end. Dr. X here has four college degrees, including three graduate degrees, from high-ranking universities, and a resume of such brilliance as to make one’s eyes pop out. However, since Dr. X would swiftly reduce MM to a grease spot, I’ll pass. Both women live in Montgomery County (Md.), so the police would thank me for saving them the paperwork.

OK, how about the small reproduction of “Starry Night” to the left of Malkin’s head? Is that in the original, or another of Gavin’s enhancements?

What if the wingnuts decided to cross-breed? Malkin has the love-child of the Doughty Pantload, Hugh Hewitt knocks up Pam Gellar–it could bring the crazy to a whole new level.

Oh, come on, Brad. You mailed this one in.

I’d be truly shocked if the Unhinged One ever gave a shit about any one in the first place.

I haven’t read this “Unhinged” book that seems to appear under her wild eyes during every teevee appearance. Is it an autobiography?

Ok, I don’t know from Goya, but it makes me wonder if he had something to do with that whole goatse thingie… Maybe.

Can we top that? Yes we can! Goya's "Straw Man Argument" (El Pelele).

Here's a timely one. It's called "Republican candidates call each other 'liberal.'"

Is this some new species of planaria named “Michelle Malkin?” And what is it doing on FOX News?

Alarming. Amusing. Accurate.

It’s Goya’s “Saturn Devouring one of his Children.” Perfect.

Damn it! I thought it was a picture of an American eagle wrapped in a flag. I liked the way the “beak” was aimed at her ear because it made me think of the dove in some paintings of the Annunciation. There was a whole “Our Lady of Perpetual Outrage,” vibe.

But now I know that was just me, needing to find my glases.

Wait, here they be.

Well shit, now I just get a better view of the Giant Planaria.

“What? You’ve never had adversarial sex before?”
That’s alright until you encounter one of those biassed, activist judges.

“Objection, your honour! The prosecution is ignoring the G-spot!”
“Objection over-ruled. This court does not cling to out-dated doctrines of simultaneous orgasm. Prosecution may proceed with the money shot.”

[Goya's] work complements wingnuttery well. “The Colossus” and his sketches immediately come to mind. I recommend his "Dog regretting over-extended mortgage". Why, yes, I do have the t-shirt.

Wow, as if we didn’t know it already, John Lott is full of it. He claims that Dems never “advocated” extension of unemployment benefits in under Clinton. I doubt that’s true, but even if it were, since there was no recession under Clinton, there was no need for a stimulus package.

Plus, Congress did pass an extension in 2002, and reauthorized it again twice in 2003, when there was a recession. Odd that Republicans (including Bush) would vote to prolong the recession, if that is what extensions are supposed to do.

Meanwhile, the very things Michelle is getting all whiny about are likely to offer the most bang for the stimulus buck. Michelle Malkin on the exact opposite side of correctness? That's unpossible!

If Malkin’s commenters’ all have jobs, where do they work? Who would employ them?

Yeah, I was going to say that Goya painting added a nice touch, but looks like a few people beat me to it. That painting is featured on the cover of one of my favorite books of snarky cynicism: The Human Race Stinks

It’s also pretty funny to read all the comments revealing that the commenters know fuck-all with respect to how unemployment benefits work.

As you know, conservatives create their own reality now. Facts just get in the way- and are biased, to boot.
