Loesch Defends Conservatives Booing First Lady Michelle Obama

Dana Loesch, in an article too stupid for words, defended classless conservatives who booed Michelle Obama at a NASCAR event honoring veterans by rambling on about a bunch of unrelated things. Here's the money quote from Loesch:

For those who argue that “Palin wasn’t a First Lady,” what about when progressives booed George Bush at Obama’s inauguration?

Yeah. Actually, George Bush wasn't a First Lady either, so that argument doesn't really work.

Gateway Pundit: Michelle Obama's Call For People to Walk to Work is MURDER!

An ordinary right-wing extremist might decide to dial it back a little the week after being caught making ridiculous claims based on obviously fake facebook profiles and shamelessly lying about petty things about the memorial service in Tuscon...multiple times. But Jim Hoft, aka, Gateway Pundit, is no ordinary right-wing extremist.

Today, Hoft is claiming that Michelle Obama "might be responsible for increased deaths," because she suggested that people walk to work as part of her Get Up & Get Moving Program. This is the quote Hoft based his story on:

Governors Highway Safety Administration spokesman Jonathan Adkins told 630 WMAL that Michelle Obama is “trying to get us to walk to work and exercise a little bit more. While that’s good, it also increases our exposure to risk.”

Here's Hoft's sensationalist headline:


More people walking of course does increase the probability of walking-related accidents. But less people driving decreases the probability of automobile accidents. And more people being in shape obviously decreases health risks. This being Gateway Pundit, however, these obvious facts are not even considered.
