My late father, who worked with the toughest kids in a Brooklyn high school, used to say that when a person's reaction is disproportionate to the stimulus, something else is causing it. So when Obama campaign co-chair Dick Durbin (D-Illinois) dramatically reserved the "hottest ring in hell" for those who would go after Michelle Obama, my antennae went up. Interviewing him, MSNBC's Norah O'Donnell also seemed a bit taken aback by the forcefulness of Durbin's response.
O'Donnell broached the subject by quoting from Maureen Dowd's NY Times column of this morning:
It’s good news for Obama that Hillary’s out of the race. But it’s also bad news. Now Republicans can turn their full attention to demonizing Michelle Obama. Mrs. Obama is the new, unwilling contestant in Round Two of the sulfurous national game of “Kill the witch.”

Has this perhaps, something to do with the “Whitey Rant” tape that’s rumored to exist?
This makes me fear for Scarlett Johanssen’s life.
LOL! Just like Aunt Esther, without the beauty and charm.
lol
I hope it exists! It would be HER chickens come home to roost, how fitting, haha!!!
He is without doubt, one of the most offensive POS within the DNC — and now the picture is becoming more clear..
He supports this suspect Muslim, racist Affirmative Action empty suit with NO solutions that don't come from the Communist Manifesto or the Koran.....
Is Illinois REALLY that corrupt, ignorant, racist or anti-America that a Durbin, Obama, Jesse Louis Jackson, Blagojevich doesn't raise some serious questions about ALLEGIANCE?
Thanks for posting, Didi: very cool!

These flunkies are all puppets of Daley and the incredible machine he is building.
People should take notice of him.
Word.
“So Durbin is some kind of administrator in Hell? Very interesting.”
Dickbrain Durbin is one of the many effeminate politicians the Democrats send to Washington on a regular basis. You all know the type: Hall monitor in shcool; cleaned the teacher’s erasers after school; would not shower after gym class (that’s if he even took gym: he may have had a note from his mother excusing him from physical exercise); wore (and probably still wears) black socks with his shorts; collected stamps instead of baseball and football cards; sniffed bicycle seats.
Holy Smokes! Look how the dems fear her!!
That’s delightful.
5 words:
Barack Will Require You to Work
Would be a thought-provoking bumper sticker imo. Just those words, nothing more.
Oh Jeez. 6 words. First mistake all year. :-)
I thought this was a vanity thread about Michelle Malkin.
How long before those who "dis" Michelle encounter the same fate?
LOLN! (nervously)
I'm beginning to think that Durbin wasn't freelancing with his warning, but instead mouthing an Obama campaign talking point. On this evening's Race for the White House, Air America's Rachel Maddow also tried to warn Republicans off going after Michelle. Host David Gregory was discussing polling data revealing Obama's weakness in various demographics.
View video here.
DAVID GREGORY: Among white suburban women: McCain 44%, Obama 38%. Rachel, how do you read that?
RACHEL MADDOW: I think that Obama's obviously looking to bring back, to lock up the Hillary Clinton demographic, in terms of women who supported him [sic], women who supported her, bringing them over to him. One of the things we talked about earlier in the show today which I think is important here is if the McCain campaign, and conservative groups outside the Republican party proper, are really thinking about attacking Michelle Obama, that is going to drive women toward Obama in droves. There's almost nothing that Republicans and conservatives could do more than attack the spouse, I think, than to bring women home to Obama.
Is ardent liberal Maddow offering good-faith advice to McCain—or is this a Dem campaign tactic to bluff Republicans away from attacking Obama on a vulnerable point?
