Malkin Doesn’t Understand How Congress Works
Malkin Doesn’t Understand How Congress Works
Right-wing blogger Michelle Malkin today criticized columnist George Will, suggesting he lives in “pre-September 11 America,” because Will argued that Congress would likely have authorized President Bush’s spying program if the White House had simply requested it.
Malkin writes:
Just one teensy weensy problem: the NSA program was (and still is) classified. Is Will suggesting that Bush could have requested the authority he needed without revealing the existence of the NSA program? Or does he think Bush should have trusted 535 members of Congress and their staffers to keep the program secret?
Michelle Malkin apparently doesn’t understand how Congress works. The existence of NSA surveillance operations is classified. The authorities under which they operate are not. (In fact, you can go read them.) Will is suggesting that President Bush could have requested the authority he needed from Congress without revealing the actual operation, because this is precisely what the NSA does, pursuant to the law.
When the NSA seeks a change in statute, a joint meeting of the House and Senate intelligence committees is arranged. If they deem the changes appropriate, the committees fashion the necessary legislation, which then works its way through Congress.
Malkin seems to believe this is a rare occurence. Actually, it happens all the time. Every year, Congress must produce an intelligence budget, the overwhelming majority of which is classified. Other than two occassions when CIA director George Tenet discussed the total intelligence budget figure, “Officials have not released totals…, nor have they ever provided a breakdown of the intelligence budget by agency or activity.”
Michelle Malkin needs a civics refresher.

December 22nd, 2005 at 6:08 pmMM is so incredibly worthless that I cannot believe that anyone gives credence to what she says. I must admit, though, that she is somewhat hot. I mean, she’s just so cute and perky yet has that sultry look in her eyes. God I’d like to…

Yeah, I don’t get it, where did she come from? Was it that internment book?
December 22nd, 2005 at 6:20 pmThe Truth,
Good point. But I’d still like to…[censored for minors]
December 22nd, 2005 at 6:22 pm“Michelle Malkin needs a civics refresher”.
Well… she actually needs a labotomy.

I heard about it 10 years ago.
December 22nd, 2005 at 6:32 pmDoes she think Congress is not informed of anything classified?
December 22nd, 2005 at 6:38 pmCongressional Dems are always whining that they are never given equivalent information. Dems love to “leak and shriek” so maybe classified info is several pay grades above those dim bulbs.
December 22nd, 2005 at 6:52 pmDid you HAVE to link to Wikapedia though? That sets you up for right-wingers to come in here and claim you link to sites which have been proven to contain false information. Maybe you could use sites like:
1) http://www.fas.org/irp/agency/doj/fisa/
December 22nd, 2005 at 6:54 pm2) http://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/html/uscode50/usc_sup_01_50_10_36.html
3) http://fpc.state.gov/fpc/43742.htm
Funny how MM’s blog (like many right-wing blogs) doesn’t allow comments. I guess she doesn’t like people making her look like a giant fool.
December 22nd, 2005 at 6:54 pmSadly, Malkin is fairly influential, at least as far as the politiblog world goes. Over the past year or so, her blog’s been ranked way up there in terms of popularity, traffic, etc. Among the rightwingers she’s at least as popular as Atrios/Eschaton. Only a few political blogs–such as Daily Kos or Instapundit–rank above her site on a consistent basis (and she’s about to overtake the latter, looks like). For verification, check Technorati, among other venues….
So yeah, it is worth taking the time to call her out on her daily pukestream of bullshit.
December 22nd, 2005 at 7:01 pmHahaha, Dems like to “leak and shriek”? Thats a good one. I encourage all Democratic party members to ignore all the Neo-Con criminal acts from now on. Hear no evil, see no evil, right?
December 22nd, 2005 at 7:06 pmMM, red state fascist.
December 22nd, 2005 at 7:09 pmThe greatest act of patriotism is to expose corruption in government.
Mighty (clueless) Aphrodite does not understand this concept because it is contrary to a facist state, which he/she/it prefers.
December 22nd, 2005 at 7:11 pmMighty Aphrodite was in the same civics class as Michelle Malkin.
December 22nd, 2005 at 7:12 pm24
That’s because many, myself included, use her website as a porn site.
December 22nd, 2005 at 7:16 pmLast ranking I saw had her in the top conservative site granted, but not even in the top ten blogs overall.
December 22nd, 2005 at 7:17 pmI have a “crud” remark~
Stevens was crying because Michelle promised to “touch it” if they got the drilling through.
December 22nd, 2005 at 7:18 pmWhat is disturbing to me is that we are even discussing these issues today. Sure, we use humor during our conversations but that in no way detracts from the seriousness of the issue.
Think about it, right now Mighty Aphrodite is complaining not about the government spying on its own citizens, an act that is both illegal and flies in the face of the Constitution, but rather he/she/it has their panties in a bunch because this activity was exposed.
It is unfathomable to me how quickly and willingly these folks are to surrender their rights. Especially when in the next breath they speak in their false patriotic voice about how “freedom is not free”.
December 22nd, 2005 at 7:19 pmSimply another sockpuppet for the RNC.
How long would it take her to cut and paste this from the e-mail her RNC ghost writer/handler sends her daily?
Does the RNC rent her website by the day or do they simply pay her on a per post basis?
December 22nd, 2005 at 7:23 pmOptimist,
December 22nd, 2005 at 7:26 pmI couldn’t agree more. I always say that the people who agree with the illegalities think they are above being affected by it. Mighty aphrodite is a perfect example(although I think she is a gov’t employee).
The Neocon creed is bronzed in anger and fear. And the only sanctity they find is by controlling others.
December 22nd, 2005 at 7:29 pmOptimist,
I guess since I like …[censored for minors] Republicans, that might not be a bad ride…
December 22nd, 2005 at 7:34 pmThe arrogance of the Bush apologists will be their undoing. If they understood clearly that laws and processes that were already in place prior to 9/11, they’d be backing away from Bush as quickly as they could. Again, here’s why:
Plausible deniability.
By speaking openly about “extreme rendering” and spying on US citizens from inside the borders of this country, Bush has just opened himself and all those involved to possible future legal action. Such actions might come from within. Or they might come from without (such as in the case of Pinichotte).
I can’t believe Republicans and their apologists don’t understand what’s just happened to them. Perhaps the believe they are above and beyond the law? That somehow their “faith” in whatever they believe in will save them? I just don’t know.
What I do know is that Bush does NOT need the Patriot Act if he’s willing to do whatever he wants outside of the 4th Amendment and the legal processes already in place for secretly spying on US citizens. So why does he continue to push for that which he does not think he needs?
Let us not forget that it was just this kind of action that got Nixon into so much trouble. I fear that Bush will not go as quietly as the other GOP crook, Crooked Dick.
Only those who believe they are above and beyond everyone else on the planet would ever pull such a stunt. And the apologists should know better than this!
Bush completely BLEW his own cover of plausible deniability. His goose is cooked.
Impeach Bush NOW! And prepare freight for the Hague with his body in it.
December 22nd, 2005 at 7:35 pmRemember of whom we are speaking: the brown, female version of Hannity and O’Reilly. No completely ridiculous, unproven assertion is too shrill, or off limits when scoring cheap political points, or at least sounding like you are.
December 22nd, 2005 at 7:44 pmbloggs like this great ‘TP’ are a beacon of free speech, Skeptic, we agree MM is ‘not a nice person’…ok….but if if it looks like a bitch,talks like a bitch…it’s a bitch.

December 22nd, 2005 at 8:01 pmMichelle Malkin is an idiot who wants to know everything, but doesn’t know her you know what from a hole in the ground. She goes around attacking people who disagree with her narrow-minded views so she can get rich from hate. People like her, Victoria Townseng, and Ann Coulter claim they love America, but they clearly hate Americans.
These so called Conservatives are against anyone breaking the law, except when one of their own breaks the law. It is this double standard Bull—-, that gets me. Why is anything a so called “Conservative” does right, regardless of what it is. They attack so called “Liberals” and say we are unamerican, simply because we don’t think like them.
If Michelle, Victoria, and Ann had their way, we’d have a Republican Dictator for a King, and anyone who disagreed with them, would be locked up without charges or trial. In their vision of America, there is no place for the poor, minorities, women, and Liberals. There would be the few stupid Conservative women, white men, the Police, and Spies. They claim they are against big government, but they never met a law enforcement agency, or government agency meant to suppress our freedoms, that they aren’t for. These idiots hated Sadam Hussein because he was a dictator, but want a Republican dictator to rule over our daily lives and make up the laws as he goes along.
Michelle is for torture and concentration camps as long as a Republican is running them. This stupid women actually thinks the republicans are always right and everyone else is always wrong. Any fool who thinks this way needs to shut her pie-hole and open her ears.

No, Carl, Most mid-level government employees/bureaucrats take THEMSELVES too seriously and the others move like the lethargic shiftless people they project themselves to be. Have you ever noticed how the average government “worker” knows exactly how many more vaca days they have this fiscal year, fought vociferociously for “personal” days (AKA: LAZY DAZE) whine, incessantly about:
a.) how under paid they are.
b.) how much is “expected” of them.
c.) how unappreciated they are.
I thumbed thru my copy of the OED and saw under the entry for “breathtakingly stupid” a photo of Michelle Malkin.

December 22nd, 2005 at 8:37 pmAphrodite is quite the caricaturist, although I have to say that your last sketch looks more like a stick figure than an actual person. To draw an effective caricature, you at least have to include a couple specific details.
Malkin was the one who was bitch slapped by Matthews several months ago, wasn’t she? That was a great interview. She wined about it on her web site afterward and someone from the right (O’Reilly?) came to her defense. The funny thing is that all Matthews was doing was forcing her to name sources and facts rather than spit out hate and slime.
December 22nd, 2005 at 8:37 pmWhy does anyone waste time listening to Ms. Malkin? Here is a woman who thought it was perfectly ok to lock up her own people during WWII.

Comment by mighty aphrodite — December 22, 2005 @ 8:24 pm
December 22nd, 2005 at 8:47 pmmighty aphrodite is a government employee, but the government is that of Iran or North Korea.
I probably agree with George Will less than half the time, but his comments about Duhhbya’s latest blunder on “This Week” last Sunday were dead on.
Michelle needs more than “a civics refresher”, she needs to bear down real hard to see if she can pop her head out of her ass.
December 22nd, 2005 at 8:48 pmWalt – You’d probably last longer in Iran than I would.
December 22nd, 2005 at 8:56 pmSince Malkin wasn’t talking about a budgetary issue, what exactly is Nico’s point?
December 22nd, 2005 at 8:57 pmFilipinos were locked up in WWII?
December 22nd, 2005 at 8:58 pmTP puts up good, intelligent, beyond-damning stuff every few hours. This is not a cheerleading site, so why do these threads turn into a liberal version of Little Green Footballs?
Forget crude, forget crud, most of the above is just stupid. You get a couple intelligent comments, and then we’re back to “Malkin’s a bitch… blows Hannity… bleaaaahhhhh…”
Come on, people. It’s like you don’t even need a troll to get all out of whack.
December 22nd, 2005 at 9:01 pmI have always found it interesting that anyone
December 22nd, 2005 at 9:03 pmwould listen to some celebrity’s opinion on
something which they know nothing about.
Like a golfer suggesting what motor oil
to use.
I will take legal advice from people in the
profession, not blow-hard idiots who are
paid to have particular opinions.
55- you make a good point. Why do we, Dems and Reps alike.. like to go to websites to read what we already believe subscribe too? I’m a huge fan of Al Franken and Air America.. and I think it is because we like to hear the sermon when we are in the choir. It helps us believe that our opinion is correct. The only right winger that posts comments on this website is wwallace. Why is that? Or maybe the question is why do Republicans come to this website? To get angry? To hear the talking points of the other side? I like to argue every now and again if I feel that I am gaining from the experience. So to follow this thought through I have to ask: Does listening to the rantings of Malkin offer something educational? Rush Limbaugh? O’reilly? Coulter? My answer is Hell NO. But I would love to hear your opinions.
December 22nd, 2005 at 9:19 pmWell Colorado Jyms,
It seems like you can pick up the right-wing
December 22nd, 2005 at 9:28 pmtalking points anywhere. All the same it seems.
I guess that is helpful with party discipline,
but makes for no education.
The left-wing seems less monolithic which makes for
less discipline, but much more interesting
learning.
Maybe the right-wing has caught on that their
sites are good for propaganda, but they learn
nothing?
There does not seem to be anything creative, other
than insults, from the RRWJ trolls here. Maybe
they come here to learn something about thinking?
As for Rush, Malkin, O’Reilly, Coulter?
They seem like negative IQ robots to me with
nothing useful to add in any debate, so I
don’t bother. People tell me Rush can be funny,
but it is not worth the mindless spin to look
for funny.
You’re actually discussing an idiot like Michelle Malkin’s legal opinions? Please.
December 22nd, 2005 at 9:31 pmColorado Jym – I visit to keep an eye on the enemy propaganda. I comment to debunk the lies liberals tell. Clear enough?
December 22nd, 2005 at 9:32 pmpurvis – Calling someone an idiot because she doesn’t subscribe to your silly left-wing ideas adds nothing to the debate.
December 22nd, 2005 at 9:33 pmCase in point, right on cue. ;^)
December 22nd, 2005 at 9:38 pmwwallace
December 22nd, 2005 at 9:39 pmThe debate? When you’re around, it’s more like humoring a senile uncle.
purvis, insulting me ads nothing to the debate and is a violation of the site Terms of Use.
December 22nd, 2005 at 9:42 pmAnd whining, also right on cue. ;^)
December 22nd, 2005 at 9:49 pmThanks afterthought. Yeah the Liberal sites and talk shows are much more educational. Offering differing points of view and working through issues. Although I do not agree with Ed Schultz and Randi Rhodes on about 1/3 of their points.. I do like how they allow right wingers onto their show to talk. I could not imagine that Rush or Bill would have the brain power to think on their feet well enough to allow the ‘enemy in’.
December 22nd, 2005 at 9:50 pmThe other point I feel like making is that all of their shows are full of such hatrid. They hate the gays, the illegal imigrants, the muslims, the poor. Seriously.. if all these people were truly as ‘christian’ as they claim to be.. don’t you think they would like more people in our society?
wwallace- I think it is good of you to open your eyes to the other side. I’m not sure if you have the ‘lies and propaganda’ part of it right. But you know.. this is my opinion.
Yeah Colorado Jyms,
I think Jesus would not take too kindly
December 22nd, 2005 at 9:53 pmto what passes for “good Christian” values
these days.
If she had ANY conviction to her nonsense, she’d allow comments.
Funny how the blowhards never seem to allow dissent.
Meanwhile, she’s becoming more irrelevent by the day.
The 15 minutes are about up, thanks for reminding people why Congress was a Dem majority for so long.
December 22nd, 2005 at 10:17 pmMalkin doesn’t allow comments on her site because liberals are incapable of basic civility.
December 22nd, 2005 at 10:26 pmMalkin’s logic is impeccable. Dubya can’t ask for authorization to act illegally…because then everyone would KNOW what he was up to…and he’d be lynched (the same fate his father feared, if the American public ever “found out what we’ve done.”)
Besides, if he had to seek authorization every time he wanted to break the law or subvert the Constitution, Congress wouldn’t have time for anything else.
December 22nd, 2005 at 10:26 pmNow that’s funny.
December 22nd, 2005 at 10:27 pmPresident Bush hasn’t acted illegally.
December 22nd, 2005 at 10:29 pmHee. That’s even funnier.

wallace, I’m now convinced that — in a former life — you were the guy at the head of the line at Auschwitz who said “‘Work Will Make You Free’? Hey, that’s a swell slogan. I think I’m gonna like this place a lot!”
December 22nd, 2005 at 10:48 pmYo, WW, if you’re looking for civility just scoot on over to Malkin’s site. Personally, I won’t miss you.
December 22nd, 2005 at 10:51 pmAdmit it, wallace. You want a boot on your neck so bad, you get a boner when you walk past Payless.
Enjoy your serfdom.
December 22nd, 2005 at 10:53 pmI just took my own advice and discovered that Malkin is hyping Christmas shopping for high end shoes, booze, and spying on Santa Claus via NORAD. This is not a joke.
December 22nd, 2005 at 11:06 pm“Malkin doesn’t allow comments on her site because liberals are incapable of basic civility.”
wwallace: Blow it out your a** why don’t ya. Sorry, I’m an uncivil liberal.
December 23rd, 2005 at 12:49 amIsn’t ironic that an uncivil, holocaust and terrorist apologist republican would justify the censorship of republicans through civility? Wow, that’s psychotic that the kind of psychotic that creates the BTK killer (another republican friend of wwallace) and Osama, not jsut the run of the mill insane…
December 23rd, 2005 at 1:59 amwwallace, defending malkin’s unamerican censorship, only shows you agree with the terrorists who don’t believe in freedom. republicans created al qaeda, so it’s no surprise they would inherit your values.
December 23rd, 2005 at 2:31 amNo one ever taught wwallace that passive aggressive hate speech wasn’t part of basic civility. Ignorance is bliss, and republicanism = blissfullness :()
December 23rd, 2005 at 3:15 am“I visit to keep an eye on the enemy propaganda. I comment to debunk the lies liberals tell. Clear enough?”
Comment by wwallace — December 22, 2005
And we love the job she does – she makes our case with every half-assed assertion, ill-thought concept, and previously-debunked spin-point she types. She demonstrates the intellectual vacuity, dishonesty and emotional insecurity of republicans much more effectively than we could ever hope to portray. She’s like the Think Progress Whack-a-mole; ring her bell on one thread, and up she pops on another.
December 23rd, 2005 at 4:52 amMs. Harman has earned my respect over the years as a straight shooter on the political side of Security on “CBS Evening News.†Congresswoman Jane Harman (D-California) made a surprising statement concerning NSA eavesdropping. According to CBS correspondent John Roberts:
“The President got support today from an unusual quarter: Democrat Jane Harman, a key figure on the House Intelligence Committee. ‘I believe the program is essential to U.S. national security,’ she said in a statement, ‘and that disclosure has damaged critical intelligence capabilities.’â€

Nice. I guess we are not all Americans, some are more American and more worthy than others. Comments like that are associated with a thing I call zero crediibility.
December 23rd, 2005 at 9:23 amMichelle Malkin never ceases to amaze with her lack of understanding, her lack of knowledge, her lack of critical thinking — and also with her command of propagandism, toadyism, and partisanship.
December 23rd, 2005 at 9:59 amBozos – all of them.
December 23rd, 2005 at 10:55 am87- interesting…
The Bush administration requested, and Congress rejected, war-making authority “in the United Statesâ€
Followed by a US Army strain of anthrax sent to the Captiol, and specifically Daschle. I guess I shouldn’t wonder why that story, and the perpetrator, just seemed to drift away…
December 23rd, 2005 at 12:46 pmJust wanted to make clear I was not condemning “uncivil” discourse or ranting or anything like that. What I was objecting to was just the “Hoo-yeah!’-type posts that get boring quick, especially when they are laced with misogyny and racism, however ironically intended.
I do not believe in unilateral disarmament, but I do believe the truth-telling jibe is always mightier than the partisan grunt.
Muddying the waters just lets everything end in a draw, which lying provocateurs like wwallace count as a victory.
December 23rd, 2005 at 1:34 pmMaybe someone should direct Michelle Malkin to the “stormfront.org” website so she can commiserate with her red state repuglican brothers and sisters. I’m sure she’d feel quite at home…heheheh!
