LA Times' Andrew Malcolm will make your head hurt, again

The fact that his visceral hatred for President Obama seems to know no rational bounds, means Malcolm's LA Times blog continues to be a running source of embarrassment for the newspaper. (i.e. It's hard to find college newspapers that regularly print this kind of nonsense.)
For his latest, Laura Bush's former flak claims Obama is personally responsible for wasting energy because he helped light the national Christmas tree:
Juvenile headline:
Allegedly green Obama lights National Christmas Tree, leaves them on
The too-dumb-for-words conclusion:
The lighted tree will continue wasting precious electrical energy resources throughout the holiday season.
That's right, according to Malcolm, Washington, D.C., is apparently facing a shortage of "electrical energy." Somebody alert the LA Times newsroom!
UPDATED: Imagine the idiotic things Malcolm would write if Obama announced that, in order to save energy, the national Christmas tree would not be lit this year?


















Just the other day the buzz on wingnut blogs was that The First Family would not celebrate Christmas, they were going to ban Christmas in America and all the usual Obama is not a Christian nonsense.
Can you believe such hypocrisy?
You'd think eventually they'd begin to chafe themselves, as contorted as their reasoning has to be to continue this foolishness. Never mind the facts! Just keep saying bad things about him and maybe he'll go away! Not for at least three more years, and more likely a shade over seven guys. See, this president actually has some idea on what to do about the various crises we face. And, when he is unsure, he knows enough to ask people who are bright enough, and know enough about a particular situation, to come up with workable solutions. You keep right on, Mr. Malcom, FOX Propaganda, and all the rest. You've exiled yourselves to a fantasy land where it's possible to report news without fact or logic. Fun to watch, but you're being taken less and less seriously.
Only when the press fears the WH (ala Dick Cheney) do they not create these false no-win themes.
Are you sure it wasn't The Onion, because I would believe they could write that. Remember the headline, "Black Man Gets America's Worst Job?" Sort of like that.
Or maybe its a dirty trick by crazy, un-American, freedom hating libs to make conservatives look stupid.
