		<description>Malkin is not much different from Coulter.  See my comments
in the previous post on this topic.

MM is almost certainly not as bright as AC but read literally she is just as &quot;correct&quot; -- read her response to the left attacks on her in this case.  The error is the same.  The difference is that AC fully understands that what she says will bring the response and she makes a good living from it selling books.  I think MM believes she is doing the right thing for her cause.  Unless she grows up a little she will end up like AC.  Marginalized but of independent means.</description>

		<description>Steeyn notes today (NRO the Corner) that in a city with only 4% unemployment Mr. Frost says he works &quot;intermittently&quot; and Mrs Frost works part time--that is not a choice I&#039;d make if I had 4 children. Nevertheless, they are  covered under the present SCHIP plan, so why are they Pelosi poster children?

I think I&#039;m rather sick of the victimology game and legislation by anecdote, and I think the Frost&#039;s made themselveszpublic figures and opened themselves up for scrutiny when they did so.</description>

		<description>Steve;

I like Rudy, but I will vote for just about anyone the Republicans nominate, because there is a war on and we have men and women in uniform risking their lives for this country. That is my number one concern.

  I do not think we should redefine conservatism to mean selfish and short sighted...because that is exactly what it would be for anyone who calls himself a conservative to sit back and let someone like Hillary Clinton win that election.</description>

		<description>What do you mean we can&#039;t do anything about her?  We&#039;re doing it!  She deserves to use her online outlet to say her piece, and we can do what we are to try an make others really look at what she&#039;s saying, and re-evaluate her centrality in the online conservative community.  

I&#039;ve noticed over the past year or so that a lot more people are becoming disinchanted with her, as she became more and more shrill, and I expect that trend will continue, or she&#039;ll cool the rhetoric in order to stay relevant.  The simple fact of the matter is that Michelle&#039;s point of view is still incredibly popular on the right, but that it&#039;s probably already peaked (at least it looks that way to me).  If she continues in this vein, then she&#039;ll lose influence as more and more people come around to our point of view.  Just keep on pointing out the nonsense that comes out of her site, and things will change.</description>

		<description>AJ,

The problem is that this was one where any reasonable person should have known the Democrats would have something like this in the offing.

We also know full well that people like Malkin will be bulls in a china shop in a situation which requires much more delciate handling, and who will hand the left tons of ammunition that will be used against all of us.  We also know they will press forward regardless of any counsel on strategy or tactics.

That&#039;s why I feel SCHIP was the wrong battle at the wrong time.</description>

		<description>Michelle Malkin needs to look in the mirror. She is filled with hate, imho, just as the dems. She is sarcastic resentful  and bullying often and doesn&#039;t even realize it. She is, as AJ, has pointed out, on HER side. And frankly, I think she is VERY close to the rigidity and purity of the likes of the Germans in 1940. NOT an asset to anything republican or conservative.

She is not someone I EVER want to emulate.</description>

Snip:
On Rudy:
Moreover, I know, from my private conversations with some who post here in his defense, that they have some hesitation about the man but, for personal reasons or because of their assessment of the rest of the field, they support him. That&#039;s fine, but must we redefine conservatism to accommodate his candidacy? And that&#039;s what is troubling me, frankly.

		<description>You wrote the post I intended to write today.  I&#039;m dismayed when I see anyone, left or right, use children as a shield for counterpoints to their arguments.  The Frosts should never have been put in this position, and the fact that their participation in SCHIP would be unaffected by continuing the current program is certainly germane.  But that&#039;s about as far as I would take the investigation.</description>
