This is one of the most egregiously awful things I have read in a long time. It would have never occurred to me that Karin McQuillan is a Jewish name so I at first thought I’d discovered a rare Irish Catholic with truly weird hangups about Obama’s attitude towards Israel. I expect that kind of thing from evangelicals, but I didn’t have her pegged right so it doesn’t matter. This is a woman who appears to be in the employ of Big Oil. She claims she is a “retired psychoanalyst” and Peace Corp veteran. I don’t know who she is. I just know she’s crazy and hateful and paranoid (or she is well-paid to appear so).

She appears to believe that Hillary Rosen truthfully pointed out that Ann Romney has never worked one day for a paycheck in her entire life because Barack Obama told her to do so. And the reason Obama instructed her to make this observation is because Obama had a terrible mother, a terrible father, lousy grandparents, and a pedophile for a mentor. And all of them were communists.

I’m feeling more despondent about the fact that there is an audience for this stuff than about the fact that is being written in the first place. What’s most interesting is the intersection in her work between extreme pro-settler rhetoric, climate change denial, and paranoid tea-party style polemics against the president.

Truly I’d like to know, who is paying this woman?
