Nothing much on...

YOU ARE VISITING THE OLD MALKIN(S)WATCH. THAT'S FANTASTIC. PLEASE VISIT THE NEW MALKIN(S)WATCH WHEN YOU GET A CHANCE.

With much of Malkin's blog today dedicated to tsunami-related issues (although she does announce that she'll be appearing on Neil Cavuto to discuss laser beams) let's look at just a few of 2004's greatest hits.

From Malkin's column "Media Diversity Test" (and apparently irony-free):

Test-takers get five points for every statement they mark "YES."

1. I have never voted for a Democrat in my life.

Nothing screams "diversity" like always voting a straight-party ticket. Here's a quote from Five Reasons to fear the Democratic Party:

The American Civil Liberties Union. The organization maintains dangerously absolutist positions against the use of torture...

Leaving aside that the ACLU and the Democratic Party are two different things, this gives us a pretty good idea of where Malkin stands (hint: against the Constitution).

And lest we forget, Malkin once (probably unwittingly) admitted that her support for internment is racist:

The apology and reparations for ethnic Japanese (including those born in the camps, those who resisted the draft, those who renounced their U.S. citizenship and those who had gathered intelligence for Japan) perpetuated anger and frustration among European internees and their families, none of whom received an apology or compensation. Even worse, the law created a historical blind spot about the World War II internment episode in the courts and classrooms that persists today.
"Hopefully, history will overcome our nation's current obsession with the alleged victimization of racial minorities to the extent that the wartime suffering of non-minority citizens such as Arthur D. Jacobs and the thousands of others like him will finally be recognized," wrote World War II veteran and retired U.S. Naval commander William Hopwood in the afterword to Jacobs' autobiography. "Fairness and common decency call for it, and our nation owes them no less."

Malkin dismisses peoples' concerns over Japanese internment by airing Jacobs' complaints. The same woman who wrote an entire book called In Defense of Internment effectively condemns the internment of Europeans in the same circumstances. Whoops.
