Malkin is Ass Backwards

Michelle Malkin put up a blogpost last night in defense of Sean Hannity, which ends with a little jibe at yours truly: "Does David Frum realize what an ass he has made of himself?"

Michelle Malkin put up a blogpost last night in defense of Sean Hannity, which ends with a little jibe at yours truly.

"Does David Frum realize what an ass he has made of himself?"

Hmm.

Michelle's defense of Sean Hannity consists of three points:

1) An invocation of the heroism of the slain soldiers who have received citations from the Freedom Alliance. (Which proves nothing about the charity.)

2) The Freedom Alliance's own press release. (Which is assertion but not proof.)

and 3) The reporting done by the FrumForum website! Malkin mentions the names of the reporters, but not, ahem, the name of the place at which the work was published. (Voila.)

Michelle Malkin might pause to consider the irony that those of us who do not stand up and salute at the mention of Sean Hannity's name were the people who did the work that rebutted the allegations against him.

And then, as a matter of manners: If you're going to rely on other people's work, don't insult them for doing it.
