Get Yer Meow-Meows Out
Michelle Malkin is totally not letting Drudge sign her yearbook.
Drudge disses Hot Air
posted at 3:08 pm on March 19, 2007 by MichelleA Hot Air commenter mentioned this last week: It seems Matt Drudge–Internet pioneer, New Media godfather, and tech entrepreneur–has a grudge against little ol’ Hot Air. He made some bizarre, disparaging remarks attacking this site and me on his radio show last weekend.
Just ugh. The things I want to say right now. But we’ve got an FCC. The things I want to say. Maybe we’ll do, uh, uh, a commentary on the Internet like Michelle Malkin. Maybe I’ll stand in front of like a blue screen and hold a banana and start talking into the Internets. (Sneering tone) ‘This is Matt Drudge reporting on Hot Air.’ Agggh. You know. It’s ridiculous. Looks like, you know, Captain Kangaroo time, Michelle. Get real.
“Get real?� Got whine?
Girl, maybe you ought to stop dissing his boyfriend:
The CPAC I saw

Enter Ann Coulter.
Her “faggot” joke was not just a distraction from all the good that was highlighted and represented at the conference. It was the equivalent of a rhetorical fragging–an intentionally-tossed verbal grenade that exploded in her own fellow ideological soldiers’ tent.
Above: Ooo, she didn’t!
With a single word, Coulter sullied the hard work of hundreds of CPAC participants and exhibitors and tarred the collective reputation of thousands of CPAC attendees. At a reception for college students held by the Young America’s Foundation, I lambasted the substitution of stupid slurs for persuasion– be it “faggot” from a conservative or “gook” from a liberal–and urged the young people there to conduct themselves at all times with dignity in their ideological battles on and off campus.
I made something else explicitly clear: Not all of us treat the communication of conservative ideals and ideas as 24/7 performance art. You can and should use humor to convey your message. You can enlighten and entertain–without becoming a tired old schtick. You can joke without becoming the joke.
Well, I guess we’ll the judges of that. But indeed, as the Eve Harrington of Conservative Media, Michelle has no patience for a Margo Channing blocking the escalator. There can be only one.
Had enough yet, Drudge? Or would you like double-M to freshen that snap for you?
We at Hot Air certainly don’t have the resources to look like the slicksters at CNN or the dinosaur networks. We don’t have multi-million dollar sets, graphics, and wardrobes like Katie Couric. We put substance first over bells and whistles. (You would think someone with a website design circa 1980 might appreciate our priorities.) That said, folks in the broadcast industry have had nice words about our production values and I’m proud of what our team has accomplished in less than a year. In fact, we’ve had broadcast network engineers and producers ask us how we do it.
Above: How, I say how, do they do it?

Drudge, we hardly knew ye.
Dear 503 gremlins,
Look! DRUDGE! Go get em, n stop making me copy my comments before I hit submit.
A Karl Rover-Abu Gonzales slap fight? Michelle vs. Ann Drudge, claws at dawn?
Could it be the wingnuts finally realize their ship is sinking?
We put substance first over bells and whistles.
Man, you know that’s right. The first word that springs to mind when I pull up hotair.com every morning to see Michelle Malkin in a camo tank top gibbering about how a liberal politician said something that could be interpreted as anti-troops if you were a lying shitbag is “substance”.
In fact, we’ve had broadcast network engineers and producers ask us how we do it
What’s the “it”? Turn a profit? Sleep at night? Talk so clearly with all those turds in your mouth?
How does she do it? Not a hair out of place!
What’s the “it�?
Wingnut welfare
I think all of us over the age of 40 would very much appreciate a pinhead like Drudge to cease taking the name of Captain Kangaroo in vain. I knew Captain Kangaroo sir (and Bunny Rabbit and Mr. Moose and the Dancing Bear) and Malkin and Drudge are not fit to clean out the Captain’s pocket lint.
How many liberals commonly use the term “gook” anyway?
Just the other day, I put on a day-glo green speedo, locked myself in a phone booth and began smearing it with feces. I had a number of people ask me how I do it…
mikey
Oh, mikey. You are the progressives’ secret weapon. We do so love you.
Malkin V. Drudge:
Wingnut cannibalism -Smells like chicken….
I didn’t even have Atari in 1980 and Michelle had the internets?
Damn Al Gore.
Somebody cue up the Queen LP so we can witness the final battle. there can be only one, indeed!

The title of this post has offensively anti-feline connotations. I suggest that you revise it, and remove the feline stereotyping, if you want the contents of your sock drawer to remain un-peed-on.
It’s great to read that the Malted “puts substance over bells and whistles” — that must be some kind of “going forward” pledge, though, as anyone who has read her work to date can attest. Personal fave? Her bumbling (or intentional) misinterpretationg of the WWII “MAGIC” cables in her lovely “internment was good” book.

There’s so much ‘substance’ over at hotair that you don’t want to go over there without first putting on waders.
Another battle where the only tragedy is that both sides can’t lose…
Ok, I admit it. I have no idea what a “gook” is. Does that mean I’m not a real liberal?
I love the smell of repuglocanabilism in the morning air
if MM is defeated by the ann-man, and victoria toedsucker can devour drudge, we could sell tickets to the annman versus toadsucker death match
we might make a good chunk of change off of that matchup
let’s hope it comes out that way
Ok, I admit it. I have no idea what a “gook� is. Does that mean I’m not a real liberal?
No, dahlink, it means you’re the ultimate liberal. The only reason I know what a “gook” is — or for that matter, a “zipperhead” — is because I was born in 1977 and my dad was a Vietnam vet.
In short, count yourself among the lucky ones…
My dad was a Vietnam and a Korean War vet. He never used the words gook or slope or zipperhead. Ever.
I learned those words from my Vietnam Vet bro-in-law.
He was also raised in the Jim Crow south. I never heard him call anyone a nigger, either.
“You can enlighten and entertain–without becoming a tired old schtick.”
Hey, did Malkin just call Coulter “a tired old shtick”? Mee-OW!
(she does bear an uncanny resemblence to a ‘walking stick bug’)
And I don’t know about that ‘gook’ stuff (yeah, I heard it from VV’s too; and I didn’t consider it more racist than a WWII vet calling german soldiers ‘krauts’; it’s just part of the general dehumanizing influence of war).
I can see a conservitard calling Malkin that, though. Especially after Malkin disses their favorite wank-skank.
