It's not stupid for Michelle Malkin to play this game. It's her schtick.
She writes for her audience which is comprised of Michael Savage types and paleos. This is the audience in which I steer clear.
Throughout this whole Armstrong affair, I've wondered "Who Cares?" Everybody knows that today's "spokespeople" are always paid, in some way, for their advocacy. Why in the world is this any different? So what if Armstrong was paid for his appearances advocating the NCLB act. Don't you think Chappaquidick Ted was paid by the Unions for his involvement in this legislation as well? This whole thing is just another trumped-up and meaningless excuse to bash Bush and the Republicans. What bugs me is few Republican "spokespeople", like Malkin, who stupidly play the game by Democrat rules and chime right in with their feigned outrage at Armstrong.
As a republican whom happens to be black, I have seen this view of conservative black by black liberals and others first hand. This view is reinforced by the media. I do not think that in the short term, any change will occur. What will it take? Democrats in leadership whom will fail again to address those issue important to the Black community, then only then, a real effort to by Black Conservatives to not only show how correct some of the ills in the black community but to accomplish real change.
