Malkin Goes to #1. Leftist Horde Attacks.

Michelle Malkin has done it again — another best seller. Her new book Culture of Corruption is soaring to #1 on the best sellers lists and it’s no secret why — it is a devastating blow to Barack Obama and, unlike the reality based community, is actually based on real facts.

Naturally, the leftist horde has assembled to attack her and seek to discredit her. No, they are not seeking to discredit her book, but her personally. That’s natural. Michelle did a hell of a job documenting everything she says with lots and lots of notes.

Her book is particularly timely because of the healthcare debate. In the book, she documents how Barry O’s wife got a job via earmarks at the University of Chicago’s hospital and then administered a program engaged in patient dumping.

The high-paying “community affairs” post was another make-work job no one else at the university needed to do until Michelle Obama came along. And it was a job no one else needed to fill after she left. In January 2009, Mrs. Obama’s indispensable job was eliminated as part of a massive restructuring to cut annual budget costs by 7 percent. . . . Unfortunately for many of Chicago’s poor, Mrs. Obama didn’t depart until after she helped engineer a rather un-progressive and unkind plan to dump low-income patients with non-urgent complaints from the medical center.

It’s all there and all documented. It’s also a number one best seller. It’s available right here.

Oh, and full disclosure, Regnery Publishing, which is also owned by RedState’s Beltway Overlords, published the book. That just means I got a free copy to review.

    …I find it hard to muster much empathy for her.

    Thanks for pointing this out smagar. I had completely missed the connection.

    What Michelle did was pigpile on and link every possible story in her piece. For what? Did it serve some type of empathetic or constructive purpose? One would think that given her relationship with Ben, this would have been a private matter and that Ben’s words would have been good enough.

    should tell us something.

    Either conservatives read an awful lot more than those highly intelligent lefties, or there are a lot of people out there, including a lot of conservatives, who are interested in what conservatives have to say. I think it indicates that we don’t need to shift left to gather new Republicans, we just have to act on conservative principles.

    Did either of the books by the Clintons hit number one for any length of time, or at all?

    Or, maybe those highly intelligent lefties are spying on us!!
