With the election less than 3 weeks away, what else would you expect a lunatic-fringe writer to do. Why, associate Obama with Zimbabwe's dictator Robert Mugabe, of course.
A recent blog of hers take a piece from the NewsObserver and twists it - in her special ham-fisted way - into a story about how Obama is going to take things away from you just like they did in Zimbabwe.
Sitting at the kitchen table in the couple’s apartment in Ayden, Helen remembers vividly what happened next. Two Mazda pickups, bristling with armed police, were waiting for her. Their leader snatched the gate’s keys from the employee and turned to Helen.
“This is no longer your property. You have 24 hours to get out,” he told her. If you don’t, “we’ll kill you or put you in jail, whichever you prefer.”
It was not an idle threat. In 2000, war veterans killed a neighbor after he refused to leave his farm.
The Herbsts prided themselves on the relationships they formed with their black employees, many of whom worked with the family for years. The couple had provided a pre-school on the property for workers’ children, and a free health clinic where mothers could take their babies. Wally had hoped that his family’s longstanding ties to the area would spare his farm from seizure.
Completely ignoring the fact that this couple chose to come to America, removing all intellectual honesty - did she even have any to begin with? - and packaging this under the guise of "political discourse", Malkin makes the case that Obama is going to take as much as he can from the average American, by force.
Not that is should come as a shock. but there are some commentors that are actually agreeing with Malkin:

Mugabe was another hero of the liberals, oh yeah I remember it oh so well..he was the ’savior’ of rhodesia/zimbabwe…and now I will never walk under the jacarandas in bloom again.
scum like you belong in a socialist paradise like that.
One would think that, with such a declaritive statement as that, that this commentor would be able to back up his "intimate" knowledge of these people that have suffered and apparently see America as heading that way.
Well, one would be wrong. The reason is, that this person is most likely lying.
You're shocked, I know.
Just another in a line of multiple examples that show that right-wing Republicans realize that they are have already lost. All they have to do know is crank up the rhetoric try to equate Obama - and those that are going to vote for him - with as many unsavory characters as possible.
