Malkin calling the kettle black

The prime Cindy Sheehan smear has focused on the supposed "flip-flop" that took place between Sheehan's summary of a meeting she had with Bush at the time versus more recent reports of the incident.

Even if this charge weren't mostly the result of disingenuous cherry-picking of quotes to emphasize any differences in her feelings PEOPLE CHANGE THEIR MINDS.

And speaking of changing their minds, DCMedia Girl notes that Sheehan-smearer and all-purpose sleazeball Michelle Malkin didn't always think that the race-based internment of the Japanese was such a hot idea. DC writes: "it turns out she was AGAINST internment before she was FOR it. Keyboard Kommandos, attack! It turns out the right wing’s new favorite Heather is a big ol’ flip-flopper!"

From a 2000 Malkin column:

"The government has apologized and provided cash compensation to victims who were forced into camps. There is no denying that what happened to Japanese-American internees was abhorrent and wrong."

"I’ll be waiting for Drudge, O’Reilly and Limbaugh to point out this inconsistency, then start going through her legal and financial records to prove some other irrelevant, allegedly 'incriminating' point; after all, shouldn’t Fox 'News' contributors and celebrity wingnuts be held to the same standard they apply to a private citizen whose son died in Iraq?"

"**crickets**"
