Michele Malkin: Not Content to Be the Budget Ann Coulter in Pastels

Author and columnist Michele Malkin probably doesn't impress anyone - except perhaps herself - with her intellect, her objectivity, or her wit. But even she hit a new low tonight on MSNBC's Hardball when she suggested that John Kerry may have shot himself in Vietnam just so he could come home early.

As Keith Olbermann put it later on Countdown, she pretty much made a major league fool of herself. Thankfully, that seems to be what Ms. Malkin is aiming for.
