“Osama, Osama…” the twice-told tale

With U.S. President Barack Obama taking what should have been the unremarkable step of actually speaking to people the country wants as allies, the typical right-wing crazies are going ape-shit.

For some reason, as justification of why Obama should NOT have talking to countries that the U.S. would prefer be on “with us” and not “with the terrorists”, anchor-baby Michelle Malkin threw a  terrible twos (Muslims and Latin Americans) hissy-fit:

Among our great friends south of the border, Mexico boasted “the second-largest number citing the US government as the perpetrator of 9/11 (30%, after Turkey at 36%). Only 33 percent name al Qaeda.” Which, of course, is no shock to those who remember when the U.S. soccer team was taunted with chants of “Osama! Osama! Osama!” after a match in Guadalajara four years ago; or when the team was booed again in 2005 and plastic bags filled with urine were reportedly tossed on American players.

They hate us. They still really, really hate us.

Uh, no… as the NBC Sports website Ms. Malkin references about this event …

“…a few dozen fans chanted “Osama! Osama!” as the United States was eliminated by Mexico in Olympic men’s soccer qualifying.”

In Mexico, people are very polite, even at soccer games.   Still, in any crowd at a major game you’d be hard pressed not to find a  few dozen guys getting drunk and obnoxious.   It’s not “they hate us” but they hate having to remember their manners when they’re shitfaced.

Ms. Malkin is not very polite and she does hate us (“us” being sane people AND Mexicans). Was she drunk, too?
